Maddie's POV:

I'm back at school now which sucks. Although I'm happy that Ariel is starting again. I went into my bathroom and showered, and got dressed for Ariel. Today is Saturday so Ariel starts earlier.

I headed downstairs.

"Let's go, mom!" I said excitedly.

"Okay I'm going to get you an apple for on the way, and then we can go." She said.

"I'm good. I'm not hungry" I said. She's sighed, and then we left. We arrived and I went to practice.

Six hours later....

I walked out of the studio to see my mom waiting for me. I went into the car and she asked me the usual questions:

"How was Ariel?" Mom asked.

"Good," I said.

We arrived home and I went upstairs and showered. When I was done, I put on some sweats and went down stairs.

"Maddie, can you go tell Demi it's dinner time?" Dad asked.

"Sure," I said, dreading the thought of eating. I went into her room and saw her asleep on her bed. I shook her so she would wake up.

"It's dinner time," I said, and then left.

I sat down and we said grace, and then ate. When I was done I ran upstairs, instantly getting rid of all of the food I had inside me. I walked out of my bathroom to see Demi standing there with a worried look on her face.

"Hey, baby girl," Demi said softly.

"Hi. Need something?" I asked but sounded bitchier than I intended.

"Can we talk?" She asked sitting on my bed.

"Sure. What do you want to talk about?" I asked.

"Look, mom and dad have been telling me what's been going on." She stated.

"What are you talking about?" I said, trying to sound like I had no clue what she was talking about.

"Maddie stop playing dumb. I know that you haven't been eating. Look at you! You're so skinny, like scary skinny!" She said worriedly.

"No," I mumbled, trying to keep up my act but miserably failing.

"Maddie don't think I didn't know what you were doing in there. You were purging up your dinner!" She said. I could tell she knew I was going to break any minute now. "Maddie you know you can tell me." She said softly. Right then, tears started streaming down my face. She lifted me up and placed me on her lap. She lightly stroked my hair.

"Baby girl it's gonna be okay. I'm going to help you get through this. I promise." She said. After an hour or so, I was finally able to calm down.

"How about we get some rest and then in the morning we will talk more about this." She said. I agreed, so we both got changed and went to her bed. She wrapped her arms around me waiting for me to fall asleep. Soon, I drifted off to sleep.
