*Michael's P.O.V*

"Dude, you seriously suck at this game" my online friend, Sky, laughs.

"Shut up, Sky, I've never played this stupid game before" I groan, trying to stop myself from sniffling.

"Hey, it's not stupid! League of Legends is an awesome game!" He jokes.

"Whatever" I mutter, accidentally sniffling at the end.

"Okay, Michael, seriously" he says sternly, "What's wrong?".

"I said nothing was wrong, keep in mind it's like- ahh- 3am, I haven't slept in hours" I reply, sniffling again.

"I don't believe you" he says, "Seriously, tell me what happened!".

"... Luke, he uh... Decided we should have a break and see other people" I finally tell him.

"That asshole" Sky scoffs.

"He's not!" I whine. "He has his reason, he thought I was cheating" I add, trying to sound casual.

"You were cheating?!" Sky asks in alarm.

"No! He thought I was because he saw me kiss my lesbian friend as a joke!" I groan in annoyance.

"So he dumped you over that?" Sky asks in confusion.

"Yes- no- ugh, I don't know, he said 'take a break'... Is that just a nice way of dumping me?!" I ask, starting to get worked up.

"Mike, calm down! Maybe he just needs time to think... From what you've told me about him, he really likes you, I doubt he's really done with you forever" he tells me.

"I guess but- Ah fuck" I groan.

"Oh no, game over, time for you to get some rest" Sky says. I sigh.

"I can't sleep, I already tried, I'm too heartbroken to sleep" I complain.

"Have you ever tried sleeping with a broken heart?

Well, you could try sleeping in my bed" Sky sings, horribly, might I add.

"Me right now" I mumble.

"I know" Sky laughs, "Now get yo ass to bed".

"Make me" I growl.

"Don't tempt me" he joked, causing me to let out a small outburst of laughter.

"Are you drunk?" Sky asks, laughing along with me.

"No.. Okay, maybe a little" I chuckle.

"Underage drinking, I'm telling!" He jokes before laughing.

"Boo, you whore" I mumble, "I'm not bothering no-one".

"You're bothering me, with your heartbreak" he says, pretending to be annoyed.

"Fine, I'll take my heartbreak elsewhere" I pretend to be insulted.

"You do that, night buddy" Sky laughs.

"Night" I mutter before shutting my laptop and taking my headset off and setting it on the desk.

I have to get up in a few hours to get ready for school, yet I'm still awake.... Oh well, there's going to be a 99% chance I'm going to stay home tomorrow anyway.

But I am tired, so maybe I should try and get some sleep. I flick the light switch off and find my way back to bed.

I just stare into almost complete darkness for a few minutes before groaning and sitting up. It's too fucking quiet to sleep, my mind keeps going straight back to Luke.
