Here is Chapter 3! :):)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When I got home after my walk I was sweaty and disgusting. The five minute drive was like a twenty minute walk. And it was hot. It was early September and still technically summer.

I pushed my way grumpily into the house. I stopped up to the bathroom and peeled my sweaty clothes off. I turned the shower on cold but then thought better of it and switched it to warm. I hate cold showers. I hopped int the shower and rinsed off my sweaty body. I didn't wash my hair. I would do that in the morning. I turned the shower off and stepped out. I found my mom sitting on the toilet. I screamed in surprise.

"MOM!"

"So would you like to tell me what happened with your brother." she asked.

"Well, he was being a jerk and wouldn't give me a ride." I explained.

"Oh, he said you refused his offer."

"Only after he told me he wasn't going to give me a ride home."

"And what was the comment about needing to lose weight?"

"Well, I am gaining weight. I would like to be a little skinnier." i admitted feeling slightly defensive.

"Sweetie, you're beautiful. You don't need to lose weight." I just nodded at her and decided not to tell her what the girls at school thought. She would would only say they were jelous. Of what, I don't know.

"Thanks mom." Was all I said. "Now can you get out so I can get dressed." she smiled at me and left. I wrapped a towel around me and made my way to my room. Once I got there I dug around in my drawers until I found a pair of purple sofee shorts and a tee-shirt. Once I got re-dressed I went downstairs and got my school bag.

"Mom," I called, "I need you to sign some stuff."

"OK, Im in the kitchen." I got my mom to sign all the necessary paperwork and decided to ask her if I could go to the concert.

"Hey mom, can I ask you something?"

"Of course."

"Ok, so, Gina won tickets to a One Direction concert in two weeks. Can I please go?"

"Who is going?"

"Gina, Gracelynn, Aimee, and me."

"What time does it start and what time will it be over?". I gave her all the information and some cusiony stuff like how safe the concert will be and stuff like that. Even though I have no clue about any of this stuff. Finally, after what felt like and hour of my unnecessary blabbing she gave me an answer.

"Ok, I guess you can go."

"THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!" I screamed with joy. I danced around in a circle.

"You're welcome. Go do your homework."

"Don't have any!" I said in a sing-song voice. She shook her head smiling at me and went back to doing what she was doing.

I went up to my room and texted Gina:

Heyyyy!!!! My mom said yes!!!!! :)

She replied:

Awesome the rest got permission 2!!

I closed my phone and danced around in a circle around my room. A little while later my mom called me down for dinner. I contemplated what I was going to do.

I went downstairs and sat at the table. My mom gave me a plate of roast beef and potatoes. I moved the food around and took a few convincing bites which consisted of me picking up a fork full and putting it down when no one was looking. After a little while I asked to be excused and made my way to my room. I looked in the mirror to see if I looked any skinnier. I sighed. Nope. Well, the smart part of my brain said, you have only been trying to loose weight for day. It will take a little while to see results. I sighed again. I wished the weight would come off faster.

I logged onto the computer. I checked my facebook. 8 new comments. Despite the smart part of my brain telling me not to, I clicked on it.

"Fat."

"Gross"

"Super ugly"

Even though it was the usual stuff, it still hurt. My eyes brimmed with tears. I told myself not to be a baby. I'm going to lose a lot of weight and show them. I logged off facebook and logged onto twitter. I looked through my tweets. One caught my eye.

"All of my fans are beautiful no mater what they look like."

I thought about that as I got ready for bed. Maybe I should eat something. Gosh, Im so conflicted! No, I thought. Im going to keep up with my diet. That was my last thought before I turned off the light and went to sleep.
