My tolerance is going up, and I'm getting numb to the feeling.

"Go fish" Luke smirked as Michael picked up another card off the deck pouting a little bit, "Just give up Mikey, I am the go fish champion and we al know it"

"How can you even be a champion of a chance game?" Michael asked frowning at his cards, his face lit up as he placed two kings into his pair pile, "There now I have three pairs. I'm catching up"

"I've got seven, I hardly call that catching up... Uh do you have an ace?" He guessed  looking at his boyfriend slowly giving him a new card. "Ah make that eight pairs now!"

"Fine you win babe! What's your prize gonna be?" Michael asked, the thing about Michael was that he was an ambitious guy, no matter how many times he loses to Luke he always challenges him again to another round of go fish and every time he loses he just gets more and more determined to win. It was a vicious cycle.

"A kiss" Luke demanded with the cockiest smirk Michael had ever seen, he rolled his eyes before standing up and heading to his go fish champion. Michael connected their lips, Luke kissed him back feeling the tingling and fireworks that's always there, always.

"Get a room love birds, not everybody wants to see it!" Ashton joked whilst walking into the lounge room, they both seperated to look at their best friend. "Did Luke win go fish again?"

"I will always win go fish ashy poo, now look away so I can kiss my boyfriend in peace" Luke told Ashton and he rolled his eyes walking into the kitchen. "Now that I've got you all to myself let's continue"

"Luke stop looking at Michael it's creepy" Calum whispered to me and I looked at him rolling my eyes. "I'm serious Luke, you've been staring at him for a good ten minutes and I think he's starting to think you're stalking him"

"Calum! He's playing go fish! What am I supposed to do?? Ignore it?" I grumbled to him, I looked back to Michael who grinned as he was winning by heaps. I knew he was shit at go fish, the only reason he was even remotely good at this game was because his fake girlfriend was quite possible the worst go fish player I had ever come across.

"And?" Calum asked with a confused look on his face. He wouldn't know, he wouldn't understand the stinging pain that went through my heart whenever Michael would do something they always used to do together with Crystal, he wouldn't understand the heartbreak and misery he had to go through everyday.

"It's our game, it's ours!" I told him and he rolled his eyes. I know what he's going to say next, it's just a card game, you don't own it, just ask Michael if he wants to play it with you!

"Luke, I don't know why you and Michael have lost what you had, these past 2 years it feels like you two aren't even dating anymore, in fact if I was a complete stranger and someone told me you two were a couple I wouldn't believe it. Fix it Luke. Just... Just fix it" Calum advised me and stood up to look at what cards Michael and Crystal had.

The thing is we've tried fixing it, but I stopped trying about six months ago. We would both constantly bring it up to each other, saying how we miss each other and that nothing was the same. The conversation always ended in fighting or sex. Either way we both woke up in seperate beds and the next day nothing would change.

I stopped trying and Michael hadn't brung it up ever since either, sometimes I wonder if he ever even loved me, if he had just dated me out of pity, That's it...  He just pitied me. Now stop staring Luke.

"I WON!!!" I heard Michael yell excitedly and butterflies flew through my stomach, those butterflies then got replaced by knives stabbing into me  as they hugged, "Look at the time, you've got to go to your parents house now Crystal, wouldn't want to be late"
