The next day Kenzi didn't feel as dizzy and actually felt a bit energetic at first. She made herself get up at the usual time not wanting to miss an opportunity to exercise while she was feeling semi-ok. She went for her normal jog and was surprised that she was able to get through it after not having eaten for several days. She got back to the house around 6:30 again and showered before getting dressed and doing her hair and makeup. Bo got up shortly after she finished.

"Wow, i'm surprised to see you up, Kenzi. Feeling better?" Bo asked.

"Yes, actually, i'm feeling much better," Kenzi said.

"I'm glad to hear that. Do you want to grab some breakfast with me? I have a case I need to get on but I have time to stop off at a coffee shop if your interested. And if your feeling up to it you can come with me on the case too," Bo asked.

"I really want to but i'm not sure I'm feeling quite up to going out yet. I'm still feeling just a bit nauseous. I think I might hang around the house again today," Kenzi said.

Bo was pretty sure Kenzi was going to decline her invitation, something she was okay with given the circumstances of the day before.

"No problem, sweetie. You just feel better," Bo said, kissing the top of Kenzi's head and giving her a hug before leaving.

Kenzi decided that the first thing she was going to do with her day was to look at some thinspiration. She had recently joined a group of pro-Ana's and really felt welcomed there. She spend most of her day on the computer and didn't leave her computer chair until 2:30 that afternoon. She made sure to stand up slowly in case she felt dizzy. The last thing she needed was to pass out and have Bo find her on the floor.

Bo called at 3:30 to ask if Kenzi was okay with her inviting Lauren over for dinner that night. Kenzi panicked for a second as she hadn't even thought far enough ahead to dinner time, let alone having Bo home and likely being suspicious if she didn't eat dinner. Not to mention the fact that Lauren would also be there. Then she remembered how charming she could be when it came to situations like this. She began to devise a plan in her head even as she was answering Bo's question about that night. It was Monday afternoon and she hadn't eaten since Friday morning. She wasn't going to ruin that now.

Bo came home at 4:30 and Kenzi came into the kitchen to help her get dinner ready. Bo was making Tofu Pad Thai, one of Lauren's favorite dishes.

"Did you have a good day, Kenzi?" Bo asked.

"Yes, I did. I caught up on some reading and tried to take it easy," Kenzi said.

"Are you still starting to feel better? I know Migraines have to take a lot out of you. I had one once and it was a nightmare."

"Yes, I am. The nausea finally stopped and I was able to eat something for lunch. Yeah, Migraines are a killer."

"I'm glad to hear that," Bo said.

The two continued to get ready for dinner until they heard a knock on the door a little after 5.

"That must be Lauren. I'll get the door while you finish cooking," Kenzi offered. She had to remind herself to slow down as she felt a tiny wave of dizziness as she started walking to the front door.

She opened the door and sure enough, there was Lauren, holding a bouquet of flowers and a bottle of wine.

"Hey, Kenzi."

"Hey, Lauren," Kenzi said, motioning for her to come in.

Lauren followed Kenzi back into the kitchen where Lauren set the items down on the kitchen table, then went over to give her girlfriend a kiss. Then she came back over to where Kenzi was standing near the kitchen table.

"Are you feeling any better today, Kenzi? Bo mentioned you weren't feeling well and said you had a Migraine," Lauren asked, hoping she could get Kenzi talking.

She noticed right away that something looked different about Kenzi but couldn't pinpoint what it was.

"Yes, i'm feeling much better," Kenzi said, not liking the way Lauren was looking at her. She hoped that Lauren couldn't tell what she was doing.

Lauren noticed that Kenzi was wearing what appeared to be several layers of clothing. Her light red sweatshirt was falling off of one of her shoulders and Lauren could just make out a white long sleeved shirt underneath it. Had Kenzi lost weight recently? The young girl was already very thin to begin with.

Kenzi decided to get away from under Lauren's radar and offered to go put the flowers in a vase. Lauren went over to Bo to see if her girlfriend needed any help with dinner. 15 minutes later dinner was ready. The three sat down and Kenzi realized she needed to put her plan into action soon, before she was forced to actually take a bit of the food.

"Bo, Lauren, um, I apologize if this sounds awkward but I think maybe I should take my food upstairs and eat in my room while you two have a chance to be alone. I just...I know how much you two love having alone time and well, i'm still feeling a bit nauseous. You two are simply adorable together and I wouldn't want to interfere. Plus I feel like a bit of a third wheel," Kenzi said, hoping they would be okay with her leaving.

"Kenz, you know we love having you here as well. And you could never be a third wheel. Heck, sometimes you keep the conversation going when it dies. Not that it would..." Bo said, feeling a tad awkward herself.

"Bo is absolutely right, Kenzi, we love having you here. Your a lot of fun. However, I know I don't mind a bit if you don't feel like staying down here with us. I know Migraines take a lot out of people so if you want to go up to your room to eat, I won't be offended," Lauren said.

"Absolutely, Kenzi. If you would rather go eat in your room, I also won't be offended," Bo said.

"Thanks for understanding. And I promise, I will make it up to you too. Next time, I might even cook for you both," Kenzi said, as she smiled and grabbed her plate and glass of water, hoping she wouldn't get dizzy as she stood up.

She must have managed to go slow enough to avoid dizziness but not too slow to cause alarm, because she felt okay and made it to the stairs just fine. She took her time going up the stairs, not wanting to fall. She couldn't believe that Bo and Lauren had bought her story. Sometimes she thought it was too easy to avoid eating in front of her friends. She only hoped that she could continue to do so without anyone catching on to what she was going.

"Lauren, does something seem off with Kenzi to you? I mean, I know you just got here and you haven't seen her for awhile but does she seem different to you?" Bo asked, after Kenzi had left.

"I wasn't going to mention it but yeah, something does seem off with her. I mean maybe its because she's still not feeling great after her Migraine yesterday but she didn't even try to make jokes with me or anything tonight. Maybe I should ask her to come to my lab sometime soon. I wonder if she caught something when she was in the cave a few months ago," Lauren said.

"Yeah, maybe. I wish I knew what was going on with her. I feel like i'm losing my best friend," Bo said, nearly in tears.

"It's going to be okay, Bo. I promise. I will talk to her tomorrow and see if she's willing to let me do a few tests on her," Lauren said, reaching her hand out gently to grab Bo's hand.

"Thank you, Lauren. I don't know what i'd do without you," Bo said, smiling at her girlfriend.

Kenzi waited 15 minutes before taking her plate into the bathroom and scraping the contents into the toilet and flushing them down. She felt a little guilty not eating the food that Bo had worked so hard to make but at the same time she knew there's no way she could eat it. She had worked too hard the past few days to just give in now. She decided to go to bed early and got ready. She set her alarm for her usual time.

The next morning Kenzi completed her run and continued her usual morning routine. Bo woke up at 9:30 to a call about a rather urgent case. She needed Lauren, Tamsin, and Kenzi's help on it. They all agreed to go with her and ended up solving the case in just a few hours.

"What do you say we go grab some lunch, ladies? It's on me," Bo said.

"Sorry Bo, I have to go meet Hale or I would. Do you mind dropping me off at the Dal before you go?" Kenzi lied, definitely not interested in having to eat in front of her friends, or trying to pretend she was.

"No problem, Kenz," Bo said.

"Wait, I know this is bad timing, but Kenzi, I think there might be something wrong with you," Lauren said, stopping Kenzi in her tracks.

"What!? What are you talking about?" Kenzi said, getting very suspicious. Did Lauren know what she was doing?

"Kenzi, I think you may have picked up a virus when you were in the cave," Lauren said.

"But its been two months, Lauren. How is that even possible? I feel just fine. There's nothing wrong with me," Kenzi said, defensively.

"Kenzi, I just want to do a couple of tests, that's all. If you don't have a virus then you'll have nothing to worry about. And if you do, I can treat it," Lauren said.

"No, I'm not going to let you do any ridiculous testing on me. I have things to do," Kenzi said, starting to walk away.

"Kenzi? I think you should listen to Lauren. She's just trying to help," Bo said.

Lauren didn't really know if Kenzi had a virus or not. In fact she was pretty certain it wasn't a virus, but was something else. She just didn't know what just yet.

"I'm sorry Bo, but none of you know what it was like for me when I was in that cave. I don't even want to think about what went on and being in Lauren's lab would only bring back those memories. I have panic attacks just thinking about it," Kenzi said, hoping she could convince them to not make her go in. If Lauren did tests on her she was certain

she'd be able to tell that Kenzi hadn't been eating.

"Kenzi, I understand that your scared, I do, but I really just want to help you. I have a feeling you haven't been feeling so well lately and i'm thinking you may be sick. I just want to confirm it and then I'll leave you alone or treat you depending on the results."

Kenzi turned to face Bo, Lauren, and Tamsin, feeling rather angry at their persistence.

"Look, I don't know what you think is going on with me but your wrong. I am perfectly fine and I am capable of taking care of myself so if you don't mind, I think i'll just walk to the Dal," Kenzi said. She started to spin around and take off walking but was enveloped by a wave of dizziness.

Bo saw the look on Kenzi's face and realizing her friend was about to pass out, rushed over to her. She was right to have done so because Kenzi, unable to shake the dizzy feeling this time, started to pass out. Bo was right there to catch her as Kenzi passed out in her friends arms.
