I don't know how long I've been sitting here, staring at these comments and studying the post, but is been unhealthy. Seeing him with her, somehow, makes me feel like I lost a piece of myself.

Like maybe if Clara didn't call Louis that night at Oliver's party, they wouldn't be together. Maybe if I hadn't ran into James, they wouldn't be together. Maybe if I hadn't even gone to that party, they wouldn't be together.

Because I do ultimately think that party was the main reason for this. Louis saw her in a vulnerable state. One where all she and him could do was be there for each other. Be there for me.

Louis gave her a ride home. Who knows what they talked about while I was out in the back seat. For all I know they were flirting or kissing or something. So maybe if I just hadn't gone to that party, they wouldn't be together.

I sit for a few more minutes, staring at the picture, and then going back to re-reading the comments.

This process continues, picture, comments, overthinking, for too many times to count. But something finally stops me.

The door bell rings over and over again. Out of the blue, there's even a yell.
"FBI open up!"

I recognize that voice. With a slight eye roll, I pick myself off the bed and trudge out.
