Marinette leaned over the toilet, holding her hair in one hand and pressing on her neck with the other. She continued doing this until she threw up.

She took a few breath mints and cleaned her mouth before heading to her 3rd lesson.

She strolled down the halls, her face pale and her eyes a deep grey.

Her smile now a frown.

She let Chloe's bullying get to her and she tried things to help her loose weight or even look better. Heck! She even caked on a ton of makeup to look pretty. She was losing herself...

Her friends had noticed this. Noticed how she was no longer cheerful and mostly wore black, how the spark in her eyes disappeared. Marinette herself hadn't noticed this, everyone else had. Her parents had, her friends had, her classmates had, Tikki had and even Chat noir had.

She turned aggressive whenever someone was to touch her or bad mouth her. She even hit Alya one day.

Maybe she just forgotten what the word 'friendship' means. But friends...

Fight for you.

Even though she's rude to them her friends stick up for her and fight for her.

Respect you.

They respect her and know when she needs space and time alone.

Include you.

They get her to join their group when she's alone or has been left out.

Encourage you.

They always encourage her to smile and be who she was.

Need you.

They need her. Nothings the same without her.

Deserve you.

Although she thinks they don't deserve her, they do. She's an amazing girl and everyone deserves to know her.

Stand by you.

While they stand by her she may fall or break but eventually her smile breaks through aswell.

She will smile, and her friends won't stop until she does.
