"Deku...A-Are you-." "No! I-I'm not." I stare at him, he has to be. Any other person would eat things just fine. I took Deku hand leaving our ice cream. "Kacchan please stop." I dragged him all the way back to my house.

I went to my room pulling him on my bed. "Tell me the truth." I'm mad at myself for not realizing it sooner. "Deku fucking tell me!" He started crying, "Pl-Please just stop." "So it's true."

I walked to him and hugged him, he sat on the bed crying. He hugged me back. "Stay the night." He wiped his eyes and nodded. I sat down next him and grabbed his hand. "I just need you to help me figure this out so I can help you okay? But I can't do that if you don't tell me..."

He told me everything. I almost cried. The worst part about it was he told me he had cut himself a while ago. When he lifted his sleeves there were deep, scars littering his arms. None of them were new. This is why he never went anywhere without long sleeve shirts or hoodies.

It felt horrible hearing these things come out of his mouth. When he finished it was around 2am. Tomorrow was Saturday anyway. I gave him some of my clothes, we were still in our uniforms.

When he was finished changing out of the blue he hugged me. "I-I know I'm r-really difficult a-and I know y-you've got annoyed with m-me....But thank you Kacchan." I hugged him back, "I'll never get annoyed of you nerd. Now get in bed."

We got in bed and fell asleep to a random movie.

[8:00 am]

Both my parents had already left for work, I was in the kitchen cooking breakfast. I want him to at least eat half. I knew he usually sleeps in and wakes up around pm. Whenever there's no school or nothing to do he always wakes up around 2pm.

But what was weird was that he came downstairs around 8:30. That's a new record. "Hey beautiful." He mumbled a 'good morning.' "You wanna go bowling today?" "Sure...but I'm not eating any of this." Well would you look at that.

He said a sentence without stuttering. "Than I'll force feed you." "Wait-what no don't do that." I laughed and gave him his plate and filled his glass with orange juice.

"All you have to do is eat half." "Kacchan...You don't get it. I-It's really hard for me." I grabbed his hand reassuring him. "That's why I'm here." He nodded his head and shakily picked up his fork.

Ok. You can do this, it's only half....Half. Kacchan stared at me waiting for me to eat. "Kacchan I can't do this with you staring at me." "Right. Sorry." He looked away and started eating his food.

Every time I would get close to putting the food in my mouth I'd always back down. "Kacchan I can't do it." He got up and sat next to me. He grabbed my fork, "open your mouth." This is so embarrassing. "Kacchan...Just because you say open your mouth doesn't mean I'll actually-." He shoved the fork in my mouth and cover my mouth with his hand.

I bit him and spit it out. "Ow! You asshole." I couldn't do it. My body wouldn't let me. I've just been so use to enduring the pain of being hungry that over the time my body absolutely refuses to eat. "Kacchan I-I'm sorry I just-." "It's fine."

"Could you just- hold on." He went to the fridge and pulled out two applesauce cups. "At least eat these." It's better than solid foods...I nodded my head and took them.

It took me 15 minutes to eat two small applesauce cups. "There! You did it!" Kacchan smiles and hugged me. It made me feel like I was accomplishing something when he praised me. Well technically I did accomplish something.

"What time do you want to go bowling?" I shrugged my shoulders. It was only 9 o'clock. "Wanna go at 2." I nodded my head. "Great! Until then..." he picked me up slinging me over his shoulder. "Let's watch some shows."
