I felt Demi shake my shoulder.
"Alex! get up sleepy-head were gonna do something fun today with Camilla and Lauren."
Oh no. I absolutely did not want to hang out with Camilla and Lauren. They are gonna hate me. I know it.
I grunted and rolled over, covering my head with a pillow. I heard Demi laugh as she launched herself at my bed, tickling me. I yelped and tried to scrambled away, but she had an iron grip on me.
"Will you get up now?"
"It's questionable." I said with a smirk.
"Have it your way." Demi said with a giggle as she picked me up right over her head.
"Demetria put me down this second!" I screamed. Demi laughed and threw me back on the bed.
"I suggest you get uo before I release my wrath on you..." Demi said as she raised a pillow. I grabbed a pillow next to me, jumped up and hit her in the arm.
"You asked for it!" Demi lunged toward me with her pillow and hit me in the stomach. I laughed and stumbled backwards, giving Demi the perfect opportunity to pick me up again.
"DEMETRIA!" I screeched as Demi laughed. She dropped me and I landed on my feet, but then fell back onto the bed.
"Ten points for landing!" Demi said with a grin.
I narrowed my eyes at her.
"That was uncalled for Demetri.." I said playfully.
"Oh, lighten up child." Demi said as she walked toward the door.
"Now that you are up and ready to face the day, I suggest you get dressed. We are going to skyzone in ten!"
I went over to my closet and picked out a pair of jeggings, because they would be easy to move in. Skyzone was a big indoor trampoline park, so I would be jumping a lot. This would aslo give me a chance to burn calories I thought as I looked in the mirror. I was insanely fat. I lifted my shirt and counted my ribs. yesterday I could see four, and today I could see five. At least I was making some progress. I threw on my jeggings and a long sleeve shirt to cover my scarred arms. Demi still hadn't found out about my relapse. I combed through my knotted hair and put it into a loose side braid. I pet on my converse and went downstairs. Demi was waiting at the kitchen counter.
"Ready?"
I nodded and Demi threw a granola bar at me.
"You gotta have breakfast on the go today."
I flipped it over and looked at the calories as we walked out of the house and got in the car. It had 140 calories. I never even ate 100 in a day before! We pulled out of the driveway and I pulled my phone out. It was 10:03. I hadn't got any new texts from Chelsea, and I hoped that the first one was her last. I put the granola bar in my pocket, hoping Demi would forget about it.
"Baby please eat. At least half."
I sighed and unwrapped it. I took a bite, and then put it down. I went on my phone again and went to instagram. I went onto Demi's profile and read some of the comments, they were all nice comments, like people saying how much they loved her. But one comment caught my eye.
Why did you adopt Alex? She is so ugly and fat, and she seems like a freak. Come on Dem, I know you can do better!
Only a few pictures of me and Demi had been released to the public, but this person already knew that I was a fat failure. I turned off my phone and leaned back against my seat. How many other people thought the same things about me? Hundreds? Thousands? What if Demi felt the same way? When would we bring me back to the orphanage? When I left, Chelsea had said see you soon... did she know that Demi might return me?
