Chapter 1: Thin is in.
Cameron sat in the lounge, her knees pulled to her chest and her head resting on them. She felt stupid and weak and uncontrolled all at the same time. She sighed as she stretched out on the couch. How could she be fooled so easily? She flipped over, stuffing her face into the cushions.
Wilson came into the lounge, staring at her. He smiled and said, "You know, when you lay like that, you look like a five-year-old," he joked.
Her head shot up and she glared at him. "Not in the mood, Wilson," she replied, on the brink of tears. She curled up her legs as Wilson came over and sat down. "What's wrong?" He asked.
She sat up and pulled knees back up to her chest. "I don't want to talk about it…"
He scooted closer to her. "You know you can tell me anything, Ally," he insisted.
She shrugged. "It's just that the guy I was dating… He dumped me today. It's no big deal."
"You mean that guy that picked you up for lunch last week? He seemed nice."
"I thought so too." She pulled her knees closer to her body. "I was wrong."
"That's something new for you, isn't it?" He smiled, trying to get a smile from her too.
She just shook her head. "No, that's House."
He smiled. "At least you still have your sense of humor."
She sighed. "I just want to kill him…"
"What did he say to you?"
Cameron looked at him in surprise. "What?"
"When he broke up with you, what did he say?" Wilson repeated.
"He just said that it was over. When I asked why, he said that he was looking for something… different."
He shook his head, confused. "Different?"
She nodded. "Yeah, different."
Wilson stood and turned to face her. "Don't let this get you down. Any guy out there would be lucky to have you."
She gave him a weak smile as he left before she laid back down. Her mind was racing wildly. She couldn't bring herself to tell Wilson what the guy had really said. Because what if he saw her in a different light? And then everyone else would see her the same way? She wasn't about to tell Wilson that she was dumped because she was "fat."
AN: WTF? Cameron fat? Hell no! But conflict is what makes a story, right? Please R&R and thanks in advance for the reviews!
