CHAPTER TWO: THE FINGER
BY: KLMITTON
115! I didn't loose a single pound! This is just great! Keely thought while putting her clothes back on. Keely was standing in just jeans and a bra, with her shirt in hand, as Phil came in her room.
"Whoa! Sorry," he quickly turned the other way blushing.
Keely, also blushing, said, "Alright, Phil. I'm decsent."
"So, uhh, what's up, Keel?"
"Not much, except for the fact I'm totally embarrased now." Phil chuckled.
"You're not the only one. So, you wanna go to see a movie?"
Keely thought about it. He wants to be seen in public with a fatso? Yes! "Sure, I'm feeling something scary tonight."
"Cool. Me, too."
On the way out the door, Phil couldn't hold it in anymore. "That was a nice bra, Keely."
"Pervert." Keely blushed while Phil laughed.
Phil's POV…
When we got to the snack bar, I expected Keely to buy the usual- a soda and Mike 'n Ikes. Instead, she bought water. This was very unusual for Keely. She always buys Mike 'n Ikes. She said if she somehow got fat and had to go on a diet, she would break it just for Mike 'n Ikes. Wait a minute! Diet! Keel is on a diet. But she's so not fat. Where did she get that idea.
"God, Keels. You eat a lot!"
"So?"
"It's a surprisr you fit it all in you're stomach!"
Shit! I had to talk to Keely and make sure I wasn't jumping to conclusions. "Keely, are you on a diet?"
"What? No."
Okay…"
Keely's POV…
Oh my God! Phil, sweet Phil, thinks I nees to be on a diet! He asked if I was on one and I said no. I don't want anyone to know about my diet. But still, he basicly told me to go on a diet! Even the most unsuperficial boy in the world thinks I'm fat. He'll never love me until I'm thin! I have to get thin. I HAVE to lose weight. ASAP!
During the movie, I tried really hard to concentrate, but I couldn't. I daydreamed about A.) My diet and B.) Phil. Oh how I love him!
All of the sudden, everyone stood up and the lights turnes on. "Uhh, what's happening?" I asked.
"The movie's over. Are you okay, Keels? It was a scary movie and you didn't dig your nails into my arm once. What's up?"
"Oops, I guess I daydreamed though the whole thing. It was kinda boring."
"Okay then. Let's head home."
"Cool."
…………...
"Keely, is something wrong?" asked a worried Phil. Keely hadn't been acting at all like herself lately.
"No. Why do you ask?"
"I dunno. It's just you've been acting…uh…strange."
"What do you mean?"
"Nevermind. You know you can always tell me if something is bothering, right?"
"Of coarse, Phil."
"And don't forget our promise to tell eachother everything."
"Phil, I know! Nothing's wrong, okay?" snapped an annoying Keely.
"Alright."
They were quiet the rest of the way home.
…………………..
"I'm back," called out Phil.
"Hey, Sweetie. How was the movie?" asked Barb.
"Fine." Phil wasn't sure weather or not to tell his mom about Keely. He decided to tell her. "Mom, I've got a problem with Keely. She's been acting strange lately."
"Tell me about it," said an understanding mom.
"Okay, well, it all started yesterday. Well, I told her she eats a lot and I think she took it as she needs to go on a diet. I'm thinking that I hurt her feelings and that's why she said she was tired at nine, to get me to leave. Today at the movies she didn't even buy her favorite kind of candy that she always does. I asked her if she was on a diet, and she said no. I don't know if she's lying or what," explained Phil.
"Well, Phil, you never know. She could have really been lying or maybe she was tired and maybe she wasn't feeling well. Remember, Phil. She is your best friend. It's not normal for her to lie to you. Maybe you should be talking to her, not me."
"Thanks, Mom. You helped a lot."
"Well, it is my job." She took and apple and went upstairs to read in the tub.
Phil decided to go see her tomarrow after lunch.
………………...
"Okay, this diet thing is so not working. I'm so hungry. I need a new plan." Keely thought and thought of what else she could do. All of the sudden, a pain hit Keel's stomach. "Ooo! I feel like I'm gonna… That's it!" Keely ran to the toilet. She bent over and opened her mouth. She stuck in her finger…
