Fast forward 3 YEARS after the events of YMKP, Marcus and Kris have been dating for 3 years now. They are entering Freshman year in a brand new High school filled with different people. They promised to stay together and never let Anyone or Anything...
It was after school. I was walking towards my bus, still having the nightmare on my mind. I couldn't stop thinking about it. That was until, Kris came along running."Hey babe!!!! I missed you!!!!" She then gave me a bear hug. I lifted her up and hugged her back. For a moment, everything felt okay. But then it crossed my mind again. I went ahead and asked her, "Hey babe, can we talk at your place?" A face of confusion came upon her. She finally replied "Sure. But what for?" "I'll tell you when we get there. She nodded and she looked down with a face of fear and sadness.
The bus drive to her house was an awkward, silent one. When we finally got there, she hopped out first, and I followed. We entered her house, and went upstairs to her room. On the way up I saw various pictures of me and her having fun times all up on the wall and on tables. I smiled for a nice few seconds, until I remembered what I had to do. I need to confront her more about Zach. I was scared to do it, but I needed to get more closure on why Zach had become more important to her than me. We finally got to the room and we sat down, her on her bed and me on a chair. "What's up?" She asked I immediately replied, "I'm worried about us. I don't know what it is, but whenever I see you with Zach, I always feel like our relationship is dead. I just want to know why you two are always around each other at school more than we are at school. Kris rolled her eyes, and then said "Alright, for one, Zach is just a good friend of mine. He means absolutely nothing to me. Nothing more than you mean to me. For two, why do you think our relationship is dying because of him?" "Today after lunch, I went up to talk to you, and when I said hi, you were just like 'Oh hey.' You barely acknowledged that I was even there. You just dusted me off and ignored me. Even when I left, you didn't bother to look for me. You just looked, and then stopped caring. What's going on Kris?" She let out a huge sigh and put her hand over her eyes. There was a few moments of silence until she broke the silence. "Listen, I'm sorry I didn't even acknowledge you when you walked up to us, I was so into the conversation that I was distracted. Same thing for when you left. I was too deep into it. I'm sorry." I immediately replied with, "What were y'all talking about?" Kris' eyes lit up and her head lifted up. "Uhm, I don't know just some stuff." she replied. "What stuff?" I asked. She ignored me that time and went on her phone. I asked again, "Kristina, what stuff?" She put down her phone and said that she'd be right back. She left the room in a rush. I then noticed her phone on the bed. I picked it up and it was unlocked. I quickly opened the texting app and checked for a conversation between her and Zach. She had his name in yellow hearts. I knew that yellow was her favorite color, like the stars, so this wasn't good. I opened the chats, and what I read was heartbreaking
I knew it. I can't believe it. She's actually going to break up with me. I heard footsteps coming in, so I dropped the phone back on the bed. I them saw Kris walk in and automatically get her phone. I placed my hands over my face and cried a bit. "Is everything Okay?" she asked. I nodded, and then said, "I gotta go. I'll see you tomorrow." She made her cute sad face and then said "Awww. Okay babe. I love you!" I didn't say anything back out loud, but I did say under my breath, "No you don't." Luckily, she didn't hear it. I then walked home, which was about 2 blocks away. First thing I did was drop all my stuff and run up to my room. I slammed the door shut and started to throw everything in sight. When I was done, mostly everything was broken, but the biggest thing that was broken was my heart. Everything felt numb. I wasn't crying, I wasn't pouting, I was just there. I started to feel nothing once more. I felt what I had felt for so long. Loneliness and depression. I didn't do any homework and went straight to bed.
~The Next Day~
I had the same nightmare I had last night.
Every night it kept reoccurring, and every night my fear kept growing and growing
I went to school today as a mess. I didn't care about anything anymore. I saw Kris running up to me and I couldn't help but to start tearing up.
Before she could say anything I immediately ran up to Mike and Jim and started talking to them about the situation. They both gave me advice on what to do, and I took it. I needed to make Kris jealous. It was the only way I would win her back.
Deep inside of me I thought of who I would choose to help me make her jealous. Thoughts kept flying all around my head until, I saw her.
The feelings, they're back. I haven't had these feelings since I fell in love with kris. It's, remarkable. Like love at first sight. I can't explain it.

There she was. Her blue eyes, dirty blonde/brunette hair. Nothing to not fall in love with. I could feel my heart pumping so hard, I nearly thought it was going to pump out of my chest. Everything went silent around me. The only words I could come up with were,
