Louis's P.O.V.

I walked away from Y/n as she did the same. I replayed the scenario in my head over and over. I did the right thing.
Right? No, yeah. I did. I'm being strong for the both of us. I did what was right. There was no easy way out.

I felt something wet on my neck. I stroked the spot gently to find it moist. Was I crying? Oh God, I was. Maybe this is hurting me more than I realise. I wiped my cheeks with my sleeve and sniffled.

I sneaked into Amy's house trying to avoid the girls. I found a note on the kitchen counter.

'Hey Louis, we're going to the arcade. Make sure to pack ur stuff. Amy's dad said he could drive us to the airport tmr -Lara.'

I let out a relieved sigh. As much as I loved my sister and friends, I needed some alone time. I went to the guest room where Lara was sleeping to get my suitcase. I started packing my stuff, trying to keep my mind off of Y/n. I was almost done when I found something in my bag. I took out the keychain Y/n had gotten me on our fifth date.
It was an otter with the words "I am otterly in love with you" written underneath.

Y/n and her puns. So cheesy but adorable. I was sure that I had lost the keychain but it was just in the bottom of my backpack. I got out my phone and dialed her number. Just before pressing the "call" button, it hit me. I couldn't call her, we were broken up. I was just so used to calling her and talking to her. I missed her voice.

Without realizing, tears streamed down my cheeks. I missed her. I really did. I climbed into the guest bed and sobbed into the piloow. What have I done?
I fucked up the most important thing in my life. I lost my chance at love.
