    ⚠️TW⚠️ – ED

    You and Eko had been dating for a while, and you thought there was no secrets in your relationship, but you knew better, there was something that you never told him, something that chased you from your past. You didn't think it would matter because it was gone anyway – until it came back.

    Now you had to hide yourself, out of fear, out of embarrassment. You knew it was back when you looked at the mirror and confirmed it when you brought the scale back to your room, it was even more obvious once you felt the guilt that followed every meal. You were trying to be as careful as possible so he wouldn't notice, but you knew it wouldn't last.

    Ekko already noticed the changes in your behavior, and the way you refused to go for an ice cream on dates. The way now you preferred "healthy" food over your favorite plates, he just didn't wanted to believe it, that you would hide it from him. He would be so mad if it was true, not because of the hiding but because of how he didn't saw it earlier, because he couldn't prevent it.

    He wanted to adress it but... what if you ran away? He knew how serious it was and how it can make you isolate from everyone and everything, and he just needed to find the right way to help, but first he needed to know if it was actually happening or if he was seeing things. It was just that letting you potentially hurt yourself was killing him.

    He was worrying about what other things you would hide, how comes he never noticed? What if you were also depressed, or even doing unspeakable things, and why did he took so long to see the signs? He felt like he failed. Maybe he should've asked, all he always wanted was to take care of you and make you feel happy but apparently he hadn't done anything. He could only imagine how much you were hurting.

    Today as usual he made some pastries, he did that often so it wasn't anything unusual. But he was almost sure that you would make and excuse to not to eat them, wich would confirm his so feared suspected theory.

    "I made your favorites, love"
