Tw: skipping meals

Virgil "slept" through breakfast. He knew that his boyfriend would never wake him if he was asleep. It was wrong to lie his way out of eating but he couldn't eat. Virgil only "woke up" after Patton kissed his forehead goodbye before he left for work. Like he used to Virgil ignored his body crying out for food by doing his job. One of his reminders to take a break went off. He knew he should stop and rest his hand. Virgil took a long sip of water as his stomach asked for food. He felt really hungry, he wasn't used to starving himself. Virgil saved the drawing and stood up and did a quick stretch. Virgil told himself that his body just wanted exercise and that's why he felt hungry.

He did a different exercise routine than he did yesterday. Lunch hit and he chugged some water so he felt full and went back to work.

He drank more water before dinner when Patton came home. He ate what his boyfriend had prepared, which made him feel better in his tired state.

The next day Virgil did this again, and then the next, and the next, and so on.
