Living The High Life [DISCONTINUED]

(your POV)

  I place a red card, flipping off Jane. She huffs before placing a color changer, sticking her tongue out at me.

  "Green, bitch." Ria looks at me, raising her eyebrows. She tilts a card towards me. A +2. I nod, and she slams the card down. I slam a blue +2 down.

  "SUCK IT FUCKER," I yell as Jane picks up 4 cards. Ria places a blue card, and I play a reverse.

  "Bitchtruck," Jane mumbles.

  "Cuntmuffin," I mumble back.

  "Chickenfucker," Ria adds, playing another blue card.

   "What the hell is a chicken fucker?" I hear from the doorway. I look up to see Gerard holding a bunch of coffees, along with two girls, who seem to be physically attached.

  "Gerard!" I cheer, getting up.

  "Coffee!" Jane mimics me, getting up.

  "Girls?" Ria points at them. The taller waves at us. Jane grabs a coffee labeled "Green bitch".

  "Is this coffee as dark as my soul?" I ask, grabbing a coffee labeled "Babe <3" and taking a sip. Gerard furrows his eyebrows.

  "They don't serve milk there." I start to choke on my coffee, coughing. Jane groans rolling her eyes.

"You almost killed my child!" Jane yells, patting my back. I lay my head on his chest, breathing heavily.

  "You wanna play Uno?" I look at Ria, but she's looking at the girls.

"Oh no, we don't want to intrude-" the shorter one speaks.

  "Let's do it! Just one round. I'm Misery, by the way. This is Dahlia," she holds her hand out to me. I shake it. "He needed help carrying coffee, so we helped. I didn't want him dropping perfectly good coffee." I nod before letting her hand go.

  "Come on, we'll restart."

~~~~~~

   "UNO!"

  "GODDAMNIT GERARD!" I yell, smacking his arm. After chugging all of our coffees, we started a new round of Uno, newly energized.

   "I JUST WANTED TO PLAY A BLUE!" Dahlia cries, picking up a card. She throws a green down, obviously upset. Misery plays a green.

  "Jane." Ria and Jane lock eyes before they look at me. Stack. I nod.

  "+2," Ria sets down a +2.

   "+4," Jane adds on with a blue +2.

   "+6," I set down a red +2, looking at Gerard. I swear to God if he had a +2-

  "Goddamnit," he hisses, picking up 6 cards. "I HAD A +4 YOU ASSHOLES."

  "Well, you still do. Now I know you have one," Misery adds as Dahlia plays a red card. Misery plays a reverse, and Dahlia plays another red card.

  "Gee, if you love me you won't play the +4," I tell him, looking up at him. He kisses my temple before playing a skip.

  "You're an asshole," I mumble.

  "I know."

   ~~~~~

  "Uno!" Ria yells, holding up her last card.

  "No!" I yell, slamming a hand on the table. At this point, Gerard and I are practically playing from the deck, since I'm sitting on his lap and we both can see each other's cards.

  "I swear to God if I don't win, I'm gonna cry," I mutter.

  "Babe, you have like 15 cards. You're not coming back," he jokes, kissing the back of my head.

  "I'll do it," I mumble as Misery plays a blue card. Dahlia plays a skip, and I play a red skip, skipping Jane.

   "SHIT," I yell as Ria plays a color changer.

  "I WIN BASTARDS!" she cheers, jumping up and flipping us off.

  "You're a bitch," Jane huffs.

  "Yeah, but I won."
