The Story Of Alexandria Lovato 1

Shouldn't Come Back

Alex's POV:

I sit up in bed, breathing heavily. I just had a nightmare about Demi and Selena turning evil and killing me. I glance at the clock. It's 9:30 in the morning.

It has been a month since Demi and Selena said they'd help me out. Well, guess what? Lately, they have been ignoring me. They haven't helped me at all. They've been too busy sucking each other's faces off.

I guess I'm just not important enough. I pull my blade out and slice my arm all over. I start feeling dizzy, so I stop. I glance down at my arm. I have about twenty new cuts on my arm.

I'm not going to Demi and Selena. They don't care about me. No one does. I'm all alone. I have no friends at school. I have no friends out of school. Everyone in my family ignores me, as do all of my family's friends. I can't remember the last time I ate.

I hear the doorbell ring. Great, more people who are here to ignore me. Dallas yells, "Alex, come down here."

I yell, "I'll come down after I get dressed."

I pull on black ripped skinny jeans, a band shirt, a black leather jacket, and black combat boots. I put on makeup and stare at myself in the mirror. I look so fat! I'm going to check if I put on weight, so I step onto the scale.

It displays 82 pounds. Wow, I've lost weight. I haven't weighed myself in a while. But I'm still fat. I walk downstairs, feeling incredibly self conscious when I see that it's Camila and the rest of Fifth Harmony.

I walk in. Nobody says a word to me, except Camila. She screams, "Alex! I missed you! Come sit next to me!"

I go and sit next to her. No one else even acknowledged me. It's like I'm not even here. She wraps her arms around me and pulls me into her. I giggle.

Camilla whispers to me, "Alex, would you be my girlfriend? I really care about you and I want to spend the rest of my days with you."

I smile and say, "Yes! I love you too Camilla and I want to live the rest of my life with you too."

Camilla looks around the room to make sure no one is watching. Then, she leans in and kisses me. I am shocked at first, like why would anyone want to kiss me? But then I decide to seize the moment and kiss her back.

When she pulls away, we are both blushing. We look around, and we see that Demi and Selena are smirking at us. They get up and walk over here.

Selena says, "Camilla, could we borrow Alex for a minute or two?"

"Uh, sure." Camilla says

Selena grabs one of my hands and Demi grabs the other as we walk upstairs to Demi's room.

When we get to Demi's room, Selena shuts and locks the door. Demi says to me, "Are you and Camilla dating?"

"Yeah. So what?" I say.

"Well, you two make a cute couple." Selene says.

"Thanks." I say.

"Now we have more serious things to talk about. You have lost so much weight. Tell me how and why." Demi says.

How does she know about that. "I'm not skinny. I'm fat." I say, looking at the ground.

I see Demi's hand reach up in the corner of my eye and I flinch away from it and I look up.

"Alex, you are not fat at all! How much do you weigh?"

'You are 82 pounds of fat. She's just lying to you. You're as fat as a whale.' My demons scream at me in my head. I take a deep breath. "I weigh 82 pounds." I mutter.

Tears slip out of my eyes. Demi hugs me and says, "You are underweight. You need to start eating. We'll watch you."

"Show me your arms." Selena says. I panic. I can't let her see my wrists? I have cuts all over them but the majority of them are from this morning.

Demi grabs my sleeve and pulls it up, exposing my cuts.

Demi and Selena both look close to tears. "Why?" Demi says.

"Everyone was ignoring me, even though you guys promised to help me. Also, the people at school were spreading horrible rumors about me, and they're not true!" I say.

Demi and Selena both look upset. "We're sorry. We completely forgot about you, but now you will be our first priority." Selena says.

"Ok." I say.

"And, we will be monitoring what you eat." Demi cuts in.

"Ok, I gotta go hang with my girlfriend, see you guys later." I said.

I went downstairs and cuddled with Camilla on the couch. We ended up falling asleep together, while we watched a movie.
