Hello humans! I'm sorry it took me a while… been very busy at work. This is kind of a short chapter, but I had the idea in my head all day and I couldn't wait to share it with you! I hope you'll like it. Let me know what you think! Thank you! Peace out xoxoxox

"Alison! I'm going out for a couple hours, I have a meeting with my coach and then I'll stop at the supermarket. Do you need anything?" Emily yells through the house, she is not really sure where her girlfriend is. She hopes to get some sort of answer to help her find Ali. She walks in the living room after looking in all the other room.

She sees Alison sitting and playing on the new xbox Emily bought last week.

"Oh there you are" Emily says from the door, Alison not even lifting her head from the game, she's playing GTA. "Babe!"

"hmm?" Alison finally looking at her brunette.

"Did you even hear anything I said?"

"Sure… something about the girls?"

"Nice try, not even close" Emily said, she wasn't very annoyed with her girlfriend not paying attention to her, she actually thought it was funny. "I'm need to run some errands, do you need anything from the store?"

"Oh, no baby. Thank you."

"Okay... But don't stay here too long playing…"

"mhmm sure, take out sounds nice"

Emily was already half way to the door laughing and then she stopped. She shouted, "I love you" to make sure Alison will hear it. After about 5 seconds of waiting, she finally heard her say it back. That made her laugh even harder. She thought - no matter what, Alison never misses a chance to say that she loves me.

After a few hours:

"babe! I'm home! You will never guess who I ran into today" Emily continued to talk while taking her shows and her coat off and putting the keys back in place. "Mellissa. It was so weird running into her, she was nice though. She asked about you." Emily was making her way to the kitchen and saw that Alison wasn't there, so she made her way to the living room.

"oh my god, you didn't even move an inch all this time."

"You were gone for like 5 minutes." Alison said, she paused the game to talk to Emily.

"More like 5 hours! That's it. I'm unplugging this thing."

"No! Why?!"

"Because you are addicted to GTA!"

"No I'm not… I just didn't have anything better to do today."

"That's not true and you know it. I thought you said xbox was stupid"

"It is… I just wanted to see what the big deal is and why you like it so much, so I sat down for a couple of minutes. And time just flew by."

"Exactly, which is why I'm returning it."

"No!"

"Babe, if you cant control yourself then you can't play with it. You are addicted to killing animated people."

"Stop saying I'm addicted, I can stop whenever I want."

"Okay good, so I'm taking this back to the store" Emily starts making her way to the xbox to unplug it.

"Fine. Then admit you are addicted… to me" Alison said with a smirk on her face.

"I'm sorry. What?" Emily turned to face her girlfriend, she was very confused but after she saw the smirk on Alison's face, she understood that it was one of her games.

"If you want to unplug the xbox, you have to admit that you are addicted to me."

"I'm not addicted to you! I mean, I love you… a lot. But I am not addicted"

"Really? How many times did you call me today…"

"I don't know" Emily knew she was falling into a trap, and she really had no idea how she was gonna get out of it.

"Seven. You called me seven times in like 4 and a half hours"

"I guess I wanted to make sure you are okay. Is that a crime?"

"No, but it just shows that you can't go ten minutes without talking to me."

"Fine. I like talking to you. That doesn't mean I'm addicted."

"last week, when I through your favorite shirt away because I thought it was ugly, do you know how long you were mad at me?"

"I didn't talk to you all day!"

"No. You didn't talk to me for half an hour."

"You know what? This is silly… I'm not having this conversation, because I, am an adult." Emily said making her way to leave the room.

"Just admit it! You can't go through a day without paying attention to me!" Alison said with her teasing voice, she was really holding back a laugh because the situation was hilarious.

"Do I smell a bet coming on?"

"I thought you'd never ask" Alison said sarcastically, she was enjoying this very much. They both were.

"You're on. And you're about to go down missy."

"We'll see about that sweetie. Okay the rules – for 24 hours you have to ignore me, and I mean not talk to me, not look at me, and definitely not kiss me."

"I can do that. And you – for that time, you can't go anywhere near the xbox. Are we clear?"

"Yes.. And who ever breaks first, has to…. Go to school with a shirt that says 'I am my girlfriends bitch' on it. Okay?"

"Sure, but I don't really care because I won't be the one wearing that shirt."

"I won't be so sure about that if I were you. Okay, we are starting the 24 hours in 3, 2,"

"Wait!"

"What?"

"Can I have last kiss?" Emily said with her puppy eyes, Alison just smiled and walked to her girlfriend. Emily was leaning in for a kiss right after Alison reached her and rapped her arm around Emily's waist. Before Emily could reach her lips Alison moved her head and gave Em a kiss on the cheek and ran out of the room. "on the cheek?! Who am I, your uncle?!" all Emily heard was Alison's laugh from the kitchen and she new that this would be the longest 24 hours she had ever had.

Emily was sitting on the coach in the living room, her mind was going crazy, its been just a bit more than seven hours since the bet started and she missed Ali, even though she was upstairs in their room. She figured she was going to be the one to sleep in the guest room tonight. But she thought that maybe if she'll get Alison to break first, she will be back in the bed before they go to sleep. She suddenly had an idea and walked to the xbox, turned it on and turned up the volume to the level she was sure Alison will hear it.

Alison was in the room trying to read a book. She actually misses Emily too. She may be not attached to her the way Emily is, but she sure loves her and needs her. She suddenly heard noises coming from downstairs. Noises she could recognize from miles away, it was coming from the xbox. "Oh no, she didn't!"

Alison had to find a way to get back at her, and she knew exactly what to do. She took off all of her clothes, including her bra and panties. She thought this would be the thing that breaks Emily. Alison walked downstairs completely naked and walked straight in the living room all the way to the TV, and walked across it, making sure Emily will not miss the fact that she is naked. As soon as Emily saw her, her jaw dropped and her eyes grew wide open. It took all of her strength to move her eyes to look at something else. She knew that this bet, she had to win. She shut her eyes and waited for Alison to get the hint and leave the room.

Alison's face frowned, she saw that Emily was strong enough so she left, maybe she underestimated her girlfriend.

Emily was laying on the bed in the guest room thinking to herself why did I get myself into this? This is so stupid. She was missing Alison, it had been a long time since they slept apart and it was killing her to know that she is just across the hall. Maybe I am addicted to her… maybe I should back off a little. This is probably her way of saying that I suffocate her. I can't ruin my relationship with the love of my life. But something cut Emily from her thoughts; she heard a noise, like a door opening. Emily looked at the clock beside her, it said it was about midnight. Suddenly the door open, and Emily couldn't believe what she was seeing. Alison was standing in the doorway.

"Emmy"

"I am not supposed to talk to you…"

"I know. But I can't sleep without you. This was stupid. I'll wear the shirt to school if it means you'll come back to bed" Alison didn't realize until now that by keeping Emily away from her, she was suffering as well. She needed the brunette just like she needed her. Emily's heart skipped a beat. She was so happy, not because she won, but because she gets to crawl into bed with her favorite person.

They were both making their way to their bed, hand in hand. As they made their way into the covers Emily said, "you do realize that I have to return the xbox?"

"I know, but right now, I don't give a shit. Just hug me."

Emily chuckled and threw her arm around Alison, just like they do every night.
