((Liu's POV))

===1 MONTH LATER===

(A/N: Sorry for the time skips, it's part of the story I swear. I think.)

I haven't been myself lately. I haven't got much sleep because of the nightmares. I haven't been eating much either. I'm really terrified if something happened to Zak.. I would die. I rather kill myself than having Zak heartbroken and dead because of me. I don't want him to die. I would lose my sanity. I'd go mad. I've already saved Zak from his attempt in suicide, I don't want to do it again.

Ever.

"Liu..? Liu!"

"Huh- what!? What happened?"

"..The bell rang.." Zak says as he pokes my shoulder. I sighed and shook my head. I got up and followed Zak out of math.

"..Uh, are you okay Liu? You haven't been yourself these past few weeks.." Zak said, almost mumbling it.

"Oh.. Really...?"

I've never told him about my problem yet. I don't want him to worry.

"Uh, yeah, you've been spacing out lately, looking like a mess, your skin is looking paler than mine.. and your starting to have dark circles around your eyes!"

"O-Oh.. Is that so..?" I said, looking away from Zak, avoiding the look of worry on his face, knowing it's true.

"Is there something bothering you?" I stopped walking. I didn't answer, so I just simply shook my head slowly.

"Is there something bothering you, Liu?", he repeats himself. I just looked down, avoiding eye contact.

He sighs and pulls me into a hug. I didn't budge. I don't have a clue why I was like that.. I.. didn't know.

"Please... tell me.. I'm starting to worry about you.!" he croaks. Oh no, I don't want him to cry because of me. I don't want him to worry about me either. I will only need to worry about him.

"It's okay Zak, it's not important." I said, lifting his chin up to look at me. He had a few tears running down his cheek. I used my thumb to wipe them off and leaned down and kissed him passionately as he did so too. I pulled away gently and stared into his sky blue eyes.

"I love you Zak.. So much.."

"I do too Liu." Zak said softly, burrying his head into my hoody. I embraced him into a gentle hug.

"I will always protect you, no matter what Zak.." I whispered in his ear softly.

RIINNNNNNGGGGG

"Oh shit we're late!" I groaned as I took Zak's hand and rushed to next period.

"How could you... Liu.." Zak whimpers.

"NO ZAK, IT'S NOT MY FAULT!! PLEASE!!"

"You broke my heart Liu..." Zak croaks, multiple tears streaming from his eyes.

"No, Zak please.. I would never hurt you! I love you!!" I cried, coming closer to him until suddenly he pulled out the object. The pistol. I froze in place.

"You never loved me Liu." He raised the gun to the side of his head, ready to pull the trigger.

"ZAK NO-" I screeched, multiple tears streaming from my eyes. I realized, looked around it was just the nightmare. No one was home. It was dark. I reached over to my desk to check the time, 2:33 A.M., it's early. I curled up in a ball on my bed and cried silently. "Zak... I-I would never hurt you.. E-Ever..!" I whispered yelled to myself.

A few minutes later I didn't bother to go back to sleep. Instead I just stayed silent... on my bed... Alone. My parents were traveling again so I was left alone in the house for a few months. Its not bad.. but.. it dose get kind of lonely here.

I felt hungry so I got up with my blanket since it was cold, and headed to the kitchen. I turned on the kitchen light and it stung when it hit my eyes. My vision was getting slightly blurry due to the lack of sleep but I still manage see clearly. I open one of the cabinets and spotted some strawberry Poptarts. I shrugged and grabbed a bag and closed the cabinet then turned off the lights.

I made my way to the living room and turned on the TV. I switched to Hulu and looked up Sword Art Online. I chose a random episode in season 2 and watched it while eating my poptart. From half the episode, I passed out on the couch.

~~~~~~

The sun pierced through my eyes as I groaned loudly, turning my head to the other side, avoiding the sun's powerful rays of light.  I realized I was on the floor of the living room and the TV was playing the last episode of Sword Art Online. I got up and checked my phone. 7:56?! I quickly got up and ran to my room to search for clothes. I simply picked out some white skinny jeans, a plain black T-shirt, and some all black converse with dark purple socks. I rushed to the kitchen and served myself a glass of orange juice and quickly drowned it down. I grabbed my backpack and keys and ran out the door, shutting it.

Shit you're going to be fucking late again! I cursed in my head. I ran as fast as I can to school since its a little far, and the class is going to start in 7 minutes. It usually takes me 30 minutes to get to school and return..when I walk.

"Almost there!" I panted, slowing down a little to catch my breath. I was beginning to spot the school until I hear a school bell rang. "Shit!" I cursed. I ran quickly until I was stopped by Danielle. "Where do you think your going?" she asked, grabbing my arm.

"Not now Danielle, I need to get to clas-"

"No you don't silly! You are going to hang out with us!" she giggled, pulling me away from the front entrance to the school.

"Let me go Danielle!" I said, trying to get her off me but I eventually gave up.

"Let's go!" she took me to the back of the school where I saw Trent with Jason and Andrew. They were both on the floor covered with bruises as if they were beaten up, badly. "WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO TO THEM TRENT!! DANIELLE WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS!!??" I raged, pulling away from Danielle's grip of my hand violently.

"L-Liu.." Jason manages to say.

"Help.."

"Oh that? They are just a couple of freaks, nobody cares about them," she said without a care in the world.

"Yeah Liu, they are just a bunch of nobodies.... Like Zak." Trent snorted.

"What did you say asshole-"

"Liu, he was just being a little bitch okay?" Danielle said, holding me back from punching the lights out of Trent. Nobody talks about my boyfriend like that!

Trent laughed and left, leaving me with Jason, Andrew and Danielle.

"Now, if you want me to free those losers, then..." She gets closer to me and wraps her arms around my neck. I just stood there with an angry expression on my face.

"Be with me." she finishes her sentence.

"What?! No, I'm with Zak. Why would I want to be with you?!" I push her away from me but she grabs both of my arms.

"LET ME GO-" she crashed her lips against mine and I froze in place.

Oh no.
