“aughhhhhh” minori groaned, school had been exhausting, and with rehearsals on top of that? minori wasn’t quite sure how she was still awake at that point.
‘oh right! the livestream!’ minori though to herself as she grabbed a granola bar and booted up her computer to check the comments.
‘haruka has such pretty visuals!” mmjlover589 commented. “i fully agree girl” minori said to herself through munches.
‘shizuku has such elegant movements! so jealous!!’ justagirlintheworld899 commented
‘airi has so much energy, its totally mesmerising!!’ cutiepatootie76 commented
thousands of comments about the rest of more more jump flooded the screen. scrolls followed scrolls until one comment in particular caught her eye.
‘minori is just dragging the others down at this point, her figure doesnt even make up for her lack of talent’ betterthanyou83 commented
- ‘i know right? she doesnt have the looks either! she should just quit and stop holding her way more talented teammates back’ tgswiwagajsshsj87 replied to betterthanyou83’s comment.
“h-huh?” the chestnut haired girl whispered to herself.
“surely.. they cant all think that can they?” she stuttered as she scrolled through hundreds of comments agreeing; a stark contrast to the three, maybe four, comments defending her.
“i may not be AS slim or talented as the others, but im trying.. that must count for something, right?” minori sighed dejectedly as tears welled in her grey eyes.
“maybe i shouldn’t eat this..” she said as she threw the semi-eaten snack into the trash can.
“MINORI!! DINNERS READY” minori’s mother called out.
“JUST BRING IT UP, PLEASE, IVE GOT HOMEWORK!!” she called back.
minori sat trembling as she pushed around the food on her plate, the comments on her weight and looks circling through her mind like a carousel.
the grey eyed girl glanced at her trashcan once, then twice, and on the third glance, she picked up her plate and tipped it in.
——————————————-
“minori, dear, are you okay? you’ve barely touched your salmon.” haruka gently asked.
minori was now sat in her gorgeous girlfriend’s home, fiddling around with her dinner as she had been the past few nights. only this time, she was at haruka’s dining table, with haruka questioning her.
“ y-yes im fine..! just thinking about where to start..!” minori stumbled out.
“if you say so..” haruka replied, clearly unconvinced.
suddenly, a thought came into minori’s head. ‘she could just throw this up later…’
and with that, minori began wolfing down the salmon like it was her first meal in days (well.. technically it was..”)
“thank you haruka! it was delicious!!” minori praised.
“im glad you enjoyed it, honey.” haruka sweetly replied.
‘oh right, i need to go to the bathroom and get rid of all this excess weight…’
“i-i need to go to the bathroom real quick!!” the grey eyed girl blurted as she left the dining table.
“okay, ill be in my bedroom.” haruka replied, walking up the stairs.
——————
minori looked at her fingers, should she do this? yes she should, shes gonna he fatter than the rest if her group forever if she doesnt do anything about it.
upon that thought, minori’s hands where down her throat.
haruka swore she heard gagging noises, and sobbing? she was sure it was just her imagination. but it couldnt hurt to check, right?
knock knock “minori, love? you okay in there?”
silence.
“minori? if you dont give me anything im coming in.” haruka followed up gently.
the navy-headed girl opened the door. and holyy it was not what she was expecting. minori, her lovely girlfriend, hunched over the toilet, one hand covered in vomit, and the other curled around the base of the toilet; her chin covered in sick and her cheeks wet with tears.
“hey hey hey, you okay?” haruka asked as unpanicked as she could sound as she rushed over to her lover’s side
“h-haruka?” minori stuttered through sobs
“shshshshhh its okay, lets get you cleaned up for now. we can talk about.. this later, k?” haruka softly reassured.
the moments following were filled with quiet, the odd sob from minori, the odd ‘its okay’ from haruka, and the soft scrubbing of minori’s face and hand.
and now, here they were, sat on haruka’s blue bed next to eachother in awkward silence.
“how are you feeling?” haruka queried sweetly.
“i..im oka…” the smaller girl’s words trailing off. it was miraculous she kept up the facade of illness this long.
“you can always talk to me, minori.” haruka pressed, a little sterner this time
“i know.. i must be coming down with some-“
“ minori,” haruka interrupted. “you dont just vomit on your hand spontaneously, i know what you did.” haruka continued firmly. “i’m not mad, promise. im simply worried… ive been through the whole vicious cycle myself. if your gonna talk to anyone, please, let it me be.”
“h harukaaaa!” minori practically cried as she threw herself into haruka’s arms. “th- there was a comment.. on the l- livestream.. saying i drag down you and the o-others..” minori sniffled “and that i should atleast have the f-figure to make up for my l-lack of talent.. and there was a whole thread of hundreds of people.. agreeing.” minori finished with a sob.
the blue haired girl was now alight with burning hot rage, “they WHAT?! minori, dear, dont EVER let those shallow DICKHEADS get to you. you’re the most beautiful girl i know, im still in awe im even lucky enough to date you, and your talent is incomparable! you shine brighter than anyone on the stage, and most of all.. you brought light back into my life. i dont know where i’d be without you. to think you’ve been suffering on your own… i cant bear it” haruka poured out her feelings.
“h-harukaaaa your so sweet” minori sniffled.
“and i mean every word.promise you’ll come see me if you feel like this again?” haruka added, with a kiss to chestnut hair.
“i mmpromise” minori lazily replied, now exhausted from crying.
“tired?” haruka asked gently.
“uhuuuhhh” minori slurred.
“goodnight, love.” haruka finished with a kiss to the grey eyed girl’s forhead
and whilst her sleeping beauty slept, haruka opened nightcord to contact an old friend to start modding their livestream chats.

the next morning arose peacefully, with haruka and minori’s limbs entangled together. haruka woke up first and decided she was making breakfast for minori. no questions asked.
so after a quick peck on the sleeping girl’s head, the former began on bacon, eggs: scrambled (her favourite) and some toast with a simple chai tea.
“darling, time to wake upppp!” haruka mused
“nghhhhmm alreadyy?” minori slurred.
“yes, come on, love” haruka replied.
reluctantly, minori was walking down the stairs, sniffing the air like a cartoon character
“YOU MADE ME BREAKFAST?” minori squealed, jogging down the stairs
“of course i did, what king of girlfirend would i be if i didnt?”
“still gorgoeus but not as nice kind of girlfriend.” minori replied through eggs in her mouth
“never as gorgeous as you, my dear”
