"He was; thank you." Sarah said, "how about you join my friends and I at Lunch? "
"Sure I would love that."
Sarah was glad she made a new friend.
"Hey, you Sarah Weber? " Alyson Waters, the most smartest girl in the whole seventh grade asked her.

"Yes."
"Want to have lunch today? "
"Sure." As Josh walked away.
"If you need any help with your math, let me know." Alyson said
"Okay, will do, Alyson." Sarah said as Alyson walked away.

The first person that went up to her was Rebecca Blue, the most nicest girl in the whole seventh grade.
"Hey, you Sarah Weber? " Rebecca said
"Yea, I'm in your English class." Sarah said

"Hey, Sarah;I heard about your dad, I'm really sorry." Tori said as Sarah looked at her.
"Thank you." Sarah said, Tori was the girl that gossips about everything and everybody. She is nothing but drama.
"Have you seen Derek Samuels, he loses the weight." Tori whispered.
"Uh... Whoa Tori, He's my friend and always will be, he has Anorexia, you shouldn't be talking about him." Sarah said
"Well,gosh; I wanted to but you don't so, I'll leave now." Tori said as she walked away.
Sarah rolled her eyes.; She knew it would have ended up bad if Tori talked trash about Derek.
At lunch....
Sarah sat with her friends and her new bestie, Brittany.
"Guys,this is Brittany,we have Enrichment together." Sarah said
"Hey,I'm James Anderson." James said,"this is Andrew Hamtion,Derek Samuels and Cory Sanders."
"Nice to meet you all." Brittany said as she looked at Derek.
"Don't you eat anything?"
"I can't eat anything,I don't want to eat anything." Derek said
"Uh...okay."
"Brittany,Derek has Anorexia so he doesn't want to eat." Andrew said as she looked at him.
"Oh,I'm so sorry." Brittany said
"It's fine." Derek said looking down and Leah walks over to their table.
"Hello,losers..... Brittany what the heck are you doing here." Leah asked
"I'm friends with these guys now." Brittany declared
Leah rolled her eyes.
"Oh,Sarah I heard about your dad;sucks to be you!"
"Leah!" James shouted
"What?"
"That wasn't very nice!" Derek mumbled.
"Oh,shut up fatty!" Leah said to Derek.
"Leah!" Cory said as Derek got up and walked to the boys restroom.
"What?"
"You hurt Derek's feelings." Cory said as he walked after Derek. He heard Derek gagging in a stale.
"Derek,stop!" Cory said from the other side of the stale. He slapped his hands against the stale door,he heard Derek throw up.; With all anger and with focus, Cory slam his body against the door until the stale door opened.
"Derek....stop.... Derek!" Cory said as he went down to Derek's level.
"Cory,i-i can't do this...anymore....I want to give up." Derek stuttered as he began to cry.
"Derek, you can't give up." Cory said hugging him.
"But Cory.....I can't do this."
"Yes,you can." Cory said.
He knew Derek wasn't the type to give up. He was a fighter and always will be.
" How about you get some water and splash some water on your face and come out when you're ready." Cory said as he got up and walked out of boys' restroom.
He walked back to the lunch room.
"Hey, Cory, where's Derek? " James asked
"Still in the rest room."
"Dude, why? " Andrew asked
"He just wanted some alone time."
"Oh, thanks for respecting his space." Sarah said
Cory knew Derek was the one who loved his space;he knew that sense he met Derek, the kid liked his space.
In the boys' restroom....
Derek cried as he finished up his vomiting.
"Why.... Can't I get better.... Why can't I heal? " Derek said to himself as he got up from the toilet and flushed it afterwards.
He looked at himself in the mirror.
His eyes were red and his skin was pale. He didn't even know who he was as he looked himself in the mirror.
"But I hate this body.... I hate it..... I hate it so dang much! " Derek said lifting his shirt and looking at his body.
