I really wanted to write a Ryley fic because there aren't as much as I'd like and I love to read them they are my favorite OTP! And Marley and Jake aren't together in this story. So here it is You are so Beautiful to Me!
Chapter 1
I've never felt so weak in my life, it's like the weight of the world is on my shoulders and I can't seem to get it off and I'm getting crushed underneath it. I should probably explain to you why I feel like this, well my name is Marley Rose and I'm bulimic.
This all started because everybody kept telling me I was going to be like my mom when I grew up, it's not that I'm embarrassed by her because I'm not. I love my mom and I don't care if she's overweight or anything else, but I just don't want to gain that much weight. So Kitty told me that I should start purging to keep my weight in check and I was stupid to listen to her but I just couldn't stop after I started. I soon became disgusted with food and right after I ate it I would go straight to the bathroom and puke it all up.
Then Kitty started giving me laxatives and Santana found them in my bag but I tried to convince her they were from a while ago, but I'm not sure if she believed me. I didn't like using then since I promised Ryder I wouldn't but they kinda worked. Ryder, I'm so disappointed in myself if he knew what I was doing to myself he probably wouldn't want anything to do with me, I don't even know why he hangs around with me I'm ugly and I'm fat why would anybody want to hang around with me?
But back to sectionals. I was feeling fine for the while Gagnam Style dance but right towards the end I felt like I couldn't do anything and started to get tunnel vision and really dizzy, it wasn't long before I passed out and say everybody gathering around me but the most important face that I saw was Ryder's right above me before I blacked out, that's the last thing I remember from sectionals.
Present Day in the hospital
When I woke up I was in an unfamiliar white room, with flowers on all the tables but I couldn't read what the cards said. I sat up in bed and looked around and identified my surroundings. I was in a hospital! Wait if I'm in here…..that means they probably know about my purging! Just as I thought that the very person I didn't want to see me in this state walked in the door with the rest of the New Directions, and some of the graduated New Directons.
"Marley?" Said my mom.
"Hi mom" I responded in the softest voice I could manage.
My mom and all the New Directions just stared at me for a long awkward moment, but surprisingly Santana was the one to finally break the silence.
"Marley do you know how long you were out for?" Santana asked.
I thought for a moment then finally responded "about an hour two hours tops?"
Everybody in the room looked at each other and by the looks on their faces I knew it was much longer than an hour.
"Uhhh maybe more like four or five?" I said with more hesitation than I planned.
I looked at Ryder and I could see in his eyes the pain and fear behind them because I just knew him to well and could read him like an open book.
I looked at my mom and there were tears pouring out of her eyes, I looked at everybody else in the room and I could see tears glistening in some of their eyes and the boys all had looks of pain in their eyes and blank facial expressions.
"How long was I out!" I exclaimed because nobody would answer me
Everybody in the room looked at Ryder in expectation. Finally he opened his mouth and I sat up straighter in expectation
"Marley after you passed out at sectionals we rushed you right to the hospital and a couple hours later when the doctor came out of your room they told us that you went into a coma because of how weak your body was, you weren't in it for long but you were in it for a good two weeks" he responded
I just sat there in astonishment. I was in a coma for two weeks.
