~+ Clean +~ •Lovertation•

~+ Chapter 3 +~

The voices in my head screamed at me.

You're fat.

You shouldn't eat.

You're gonna regret it.

Oh god. I'm never gonna be clean.

I sighed and swallowed the bite. Rep had finished hers. Already.

She took my hand that I wasn't eating and held it,  I think she knew I was nervous.

"Whatcha thinking about?" She asked.

I scrambled for a lie. "Oh, I- um- Mr- I'm thinking about Mr. Johnson's test..." I lied.

She furrowed her brows. "You don't seem good, you alright sunshine?" She asked, tilting her head to the side in concern and curiosity.

"Yeah, I'm fine," I faked a smile.

Her eyes lingered on me for a bit and she shrugged.

"You done?" She asks.

I nod immediately.

"You barely ate." She points out.

"I wasn't hungry." I lied.

"Okay... um, well, we should go. We're gonna be late." She says.

"Right. Yeah, I'll get speak up. Um, I'll make her a bagel-" I start.

"No, I made her an omelette," she says, not looking at me and putting the plates and such away.

"Oh, really?" I ask surprised.

She nods.

I nod back and go up the stairs, knocking on her bedroom door.

I hear... nothing?

I knock again.

Nothing.

I open the door. She's not in bed..

I look around. I see her in a ball in the corner of the room.

My eyes widen and I go up to her concerned.

"Hey, sis, you okay?" I ask gently, dropping to my knees in front of her and resting my hand on her shoulder.

She looked up at me, her eyes red.

She shook her head, then shifted her gaze away.

I noticed how quickly she was breathing.

Oh.

"Hey, hey, hey, look at me, okay? Focus on me," I instructed.

She obeyed.

"Okay, good. Now. We're gonna go in for 4, out for 8, okay? Let's do it together, yeah?" I said gently.

"1... 2... good job, 3..." I said as she followed.

Soon enough, she was calmed down.

I pulled her into me.

"What happened Speak?" I ask, scratching her head as I held her tightly.

"Um. I w-was on call with f-folklore, and as w-we ended the call, I told her I loved her.. and I-I hung up.. and- she... she might h-hate me now!" Speak explained.

"Speak. Folk does NOT hate you. She absolutely loves you. She just didn't have time to say it back. Hey, I bet at school she'll say it back..." I cooed quietly.

She giggled shakily and weakly, leaning into me.

"We gotta get to school, but I won't rush you," I tell her.

She nods into me and gets up.

I get up with her and grab her backpack.

She puts her shoes on and takes the backpack from me.

We walk down the stairs, where Rep's waiting by the door.

Speak sends a glance at me.

"Shut up," I mutter in her ear, my teeth clenched.

"Breakfast on the counter." Said rep.

Speak went over and practically inhaled it, then came back to us.

We walked out, Rep immediately slung her arm over my shoulder which didn't help with my case.

I didn't complain, just leaned into it.

We turned the corner, and I saw her.

Oh no.

Karma.

She walked up to us and looked me up and down.

"Really, Rep? You're hanging with this slut? I'm surprised she even gets action with that body," she sneered.

I tensed up and leaned further into Rep.

That body. Yeah. It sucks.

Rep left me and went up to Karma.

"You shut your fucking mouth before I shut it for you, karma." She said, her voice dropped low.

"Aww, little reputation standing up to her sister. You've never been able to do that with dad, have you?" Karma said, faking sympathy.

And just like that, Rep's hand shot to Karma's throat, pinning her against... well, the air, really.

Karma clawed at Rep's hand, her face slowly losing color.

"Oh, now you're quiet? Fucking bread crumb," spoke Rep.

I giggled a bit.

Rep dropped her hand from karma's throat, but retracted it and slammed it into Karma's face.

Karma staggered back as Rep walked back to me. She slung her arm around my shoulder again while Speak now laughed in the back.

We walked past them, arriving by school.

"Alright, I gotta go find Jax, stay safe." Rep said, looking at Speak and I.

I nodded. Speak just walked off.

Rep pecked my cheek and walked off.

I stood there. No matter how many times Rep's done that, I get so flustered every single time.

I put my backpack in my locker and grabbed my P.E gear, going to my first period class.
