Marshall's POV

I called Kim and she was congratulating me on finishing the album.

"I'm so proud of you and I'm sorry."

"Kim, I'm with Rocky."

"But, we were supposed to be a family."

"Kim, I'm with her. I've dumped her for you before it's not happening again."

"Do you love her?"

"I'm starting to."

"Are you in love with her?"

"Does it matter?" I asked.

"Do you love me?" She asked.

"I'm not about to answer that. I wanna talk to the kids."

"No, not until you answer me." She said.

"I don't love you." I said and the phone clicked.

"GOT DAMN, CUNT, COCK, FUCKING, SHIT, BALLS!" I said and sat on the floor. I grabbed the remote and turned on this movie. Then I was inspired. What if I did a prequel to Just The Two of Us? I called Rocky and she answered.

"Hey Marshall." She said misery in her tone.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"I miss you."

"I miss you too." I said and she sniffled.

"I love you." She said.

"I love you too." I said and there was a knock at my door.

"Marshall." She mumbled.

"Yes, bab-" I stopped when I opened the door and she was there.

"Holy shit." I said and I sat the house phone on the table and I kissed her. I picked her up and spun her around. I kissed her and she hugged me.

"What are you doing here?" I asked and kissed her.

"I missed you." She said. I closed the door and threw her softly on the couch. I climbed on top of her and kissed her. When you go two months with out seeing your girlfriend when you guys have been together damn near the whole time you've known each other. It's a rush. I wanna be around her all the time.

"Marshall, I have to get my stuff." She said and I nodded and kissed her and we walked downstairs to the taxi and grabbed the stuff.

"Thank you so much." She said to the driver and we walked upstairs.

"Baby, I'm going to take a nap." She said and I nodded and kissed her. As soon as she was sleep, Kim called and out of fear of waking her I walked out.

"What?" I said and sat on the stairs.

"You don't love me?"

"Kim! She's in my apartment. I am in love with her if that's what you want to hear and you can stop being desperate."

"I'm not being desperate."

"Your acting like an ex-wife, Kim, why are you all up my sex life?"

"I love you."

"You didn't want me to see you then, I don't want you now"

"I want you, Marshall I'm sorry!"

"You broke me, now your trying to apologize. For all the lies and everytime you made me ball my eyes because I got a bigger wallet size. Fuck you... I love my daughter, I just wish some days I had her with Rocky."
