Kai, wrecked, careless, he thinks everyone is against him, friends are meaningless, he's never been one to believe in good, or someone suffering more than him.
Until Ariella. Picture perfect smile, heart stopping freckles, classic pale skin, bright...
Fingers shoved down my throat, forcing me to throw up all I ate today.
"Look at you! You're eating so much where do you get this shit?" I couldn't breathe, choking on my own tears and the food coming up.
He finished, washing his hands as I knelt there.
"You're never gonna get a boyfriend eating so much Ariella. I loved your mom when she was thin, she gave birth to you and looked like a fucking cow. She left you because you were a disappointment. You ruined her body. She probably has other kids she loves better. God I would too, you're pathetic. Wipe the tears and go to bed. One glass of water tonight, I won't be home the next few days, don't fuck up." He told me and I nodded.
"Okay." I grumbled through the acidic feeling in my throat.
"You understand?" He grabbed my chin.
"I understand dad, when do you leave?" I asked.
"Two in the morning. I removed all the food from the fridge, don't go eating more." He warned.
"I won't." I nodded.
"Good. I have to leave now to make my flight though. I'll be gone a week. I expect quick replies and updates on your grades." He told me and I stood, wiping my mouth.
"Today I took the math one, she graded mine first, I got 100% with an extra credit point for an optional problem I did." I told him and he nodded.
"Good, better than the 89% last time. Keep it up and I'll buy you a muffin." He told me and I nodded.
"I took your money from your wallet, I need it for the bars, no shopping for you, don't order anything, only school food alright?" He said as I followed him into the living room.
He kissed my cheek bye and left.
I gasped for air, by body collapsing and hitting the floor.
I sobbed, I couldn't breathe.
I was 17.
I just wanted to live.
I just want to live.

I opened my eyes, heavy knocking on my door.
I opened the door and saw Peyton.
"Your fucking face." She touched my cheek and I grabbed her wrist.
"Don't worry. I was experimenting with a new makeup palette and I was putting the different shades on my face, the purples were so pretty by the way, and they stained, I went to shower and got soap in my eyes after and they just won't come off." I laughed.
"I might want to borrow that pallet, damn girl. Anyways I don't want you to be late." She smiled.
"Come in. My dad left for a work trip." I motioned for her to come in and she looked around.
"Can I have something to drink?" She asked.
"All I have is water, no time to look in the fridge help me get dressed let's go." I yanked her to my room.
"Pick my outfit while I do my makeup." I said and let her search through my closet.
I packed on foundation, the concealer, and setting powder. I put in eye drops, a light coat of mascara going on afterwards.
I put on lip plumper so my cut and swollen lip was kinda gone.
I put my hair in a bun and went to my room.
"Do you think Kai is hot or what?" She laughed.
"He's okay sure." I mentally gritted my teeth.
"I want him so bad, do you think this outfit would catch his attention?" She smothered her breasts up so they showed a small cleavage.
"Sure." I nodded.
She handed me my outfit and I checked it.
"Pretty good." I smiled.
That was a lie.
Besides it being all I fucking did I knew she'd pick something like this.
She was a toxic friend but she bought me food.
A girls got to go one year without being hospitalized and she was my ticket.
I hated her.
