Kitty felt awful. She had never meant for Marley to go that far with her purging. She was just jealous of the tall, skinny brunette. Kitty was terrified that Marley was never going to forgive her. But it turned out, Marley blamed herself more than anyone else. This killed Kitty on the inside. How could she have done this to her? She may have acted like she hated Marley, but really, she was just jealous and had actually grown to care for the frail brunette. She didn't know how she was going to make this up to Marley or even the New Directions. How could she apologize to her without telling her what her original intentions were? But she knew she had to do it.
I may be a bitch, she thought, but I'm not that crazy or evil. I really want Marley to be okay. How could I have done that?
No, Kitty didn't love the girl like that, but she did care for her as a friend. Yea, she had told Marley she had a hot bod. But no way, no way could she ever like her. Even if she did, it would ruin her whole reputation. And no way was Kitty going to allow that to happen. Not now. Not ever.
The next day when they had their six minute Glee meeting the next day in the auditorium for six minutes. When Marley piped her hand up and said she'd be there at the next meeting, Kitty's heart dropped. She also couldn't stand the thought of Tina talking down to her like that. However, she wasn't going to talk down a fellow Cheerio in the middle of Glee practice. She was going to wait until later to confront that evil Asian bitch.
Right before Cheerios practice, she confronted Tina.
"If you're ever mean to Marley again, I will ruin you. And I mean I will ruin your whole life, do you understand me?"
"Why do you care what I do and don't say to Marley?"
"Because…because she's my friend."
"Really? Because last I checked you treated everyone who's not a Cheerio and as popular as you like a piece of garbage."
"Well, Marley is my friend now. So please leave her the hell alone. I actually really do care about her. And you're only going to make everything worse for her by picking on her."
"Whatever," was the Asian's response.
Now, to check on Marley. She's probably hanging around the school because her mom works here. Let's check the cafeteria.
Kitty was right. She saw Marley sitting there, thin, pale, and frail.
"Hey," Kitty said.
"Hi," Marley responded.
"So…I'm really worried about you."
"Why? I'm fine, I just passed out from exhaustion."
"No, you passed out because you haven't been eating and have been puking your guts out if you do eat."
"Yea, well you talked me into that."
"I know and I shouldn't have. I'm so sorry," the blonde replied, nearly in tears.
"Whatever, you don't care about me. No one does," Marley said and her voice trailed off at the last few syllables in the sentence.
"But I do. I know I acted like a bitch towards you, but it's honestly because I'm jealous of you and your hot bod. I really do mean that. Okay? And I'm sorry I told you to do all those things, but honestly, all of my friends do it. We're supposed to be on this stupid strict diet and take this shit Coach Sylvester mixes up, but honestly, I'm tired of it. I just want to be happy, and honestly, I'm not. I only told you to do those things because I wanted to be less alone in this and now I can't stop either."
"Why did you want me to do this if you knew it was this much hell?"
"I never meant to hurt you, Marley. I was just jealous of you because let's face it, you're like the hottest girl at this school and any guy would be lucky to ever date you."
"Do you really think so?" Marley asked.
"Yes, of course I do," responded Kitty, reaching for Marley's hand, who then grasped her friend's hand tightly, "Alright then, let's go take you shopping for those clothes I promised you I'd buy for you."
They went to the mall and to all these different stores like American Eagle, Hollister, and Abercrombie, stores Marley had only dreamed of ever having.
"And now for the makeover, we will be going to Macy's! They have amazing makeup and we can either have it done there or we can do it at my house."
"Let's buy the stuff and bring it to your house."
"Okay," Kitty exclaimed and smiled brightly.
