Leo: She's called Chloe! She has the most beautiful hair and her face is like one of an angel and she's blah blah blah blah blah blah

After hearing a few moments of his sickening description, I tuned out. I thought he loved me? He clearly didn't, but my naïvety denied that he'd moved on. He was just missing out on me, and was just jealous he couldn't have me.

I tricked myself with that lie for too long.

###

They were so noisy. I could feel the thuds on the wall next to me, I could hear the moans, and worst of all, I knew they were in love.

Chloe and Leo have been together for 3 months, and I'm just that awkward roommate who might walk in on them at any moment asking if we needed more milk. I was made redundant in Leo's life.

So much for all the love he showed me.

On an unrelated note, my mum, Amy, didn't survive. I've seen Geoff around a few times, and whenever he gets a glimpse of me, he runs. He can't deal with the guilt, and I can't deal with confrontation.

Chloe: Good morning, sugar! Good morning, Catherine.
Me: It's Cath, but good morning.
Leo: No morning is good with a hangover... babe, why did you let me drink that much at the club? You know I can't exist the next morning...
Chloe: You were having a good time, and I didn't want to stop you!

I left the room, as I knew their love would be unbearable soon.

After a few minutes of moping in my room, Chloe came in. She was about to cry, and she startled me. I clumsily stood up, and walked over to her. We looked very similar, except her hair was long and bleached blonde.

Chloe: Cath? Why does he still want you? Am I not good enough?! Why is he doing this to me?!

I opened my mouth to answer, but I realised that I didn't know what to say.

Chloe: Why does he say your name instead of mine? Why does he say "Cath" when we have sex? Why does he say "Cath" when we go to Starbucks and they ask for the names on the cups? Why does he say "Cath" when anyone asks who his girlfriend is? Why doesn't he say "Chloe"? Doesn't he love me? Is this because I'm not good enough? I can do better for him! I swear! Just tell me what I need to do to get him to love me again! Please, Cath!!!

I said nothing for a moment.

Chloe: He kissed me, and said "I love you, Cath". Why doesn't he want me? Can't you please make him love me again? Please, Catherine!
Me: You can't...
Chloe: Why not? Why? Aren't I enough?!
Me: You can't make him love you back. It's his choice and if it's not you, then let him go and get someone else who you love and who loves you back!
Chloe: FUCK YOU! You're what's stopping us from being happy! JUST GET OUT OF HIS LIFE!

She threw a punch at me, at the same time I walked out my room. Leo was there, with his head in his hands. He was sitting on the sofa, with his elbows on the lower part of his thighs.

Leo: Cath?

He looked up when he saw me, and his posture straightened a little.

Leo: Did Chloe tell you? Where is she? I need to speak to her!

He was now standing up. I was scared, for some reason, and so I only nodded my head and pointed to my room, where she was.

He went in, and I stood a few meters away, so I could try to hear what they were saying, but I couldn't. I tripped over, and I tumbled into my room. As I regained my stance and my dignity, I saw Leo talking to Chloe.

Leo: IT'S OVER, AND WE ARE DONE. GET OUT MY HOUSE AND LEAVE CATH ALONE!!!
Chloe: FUCK YOU! FUCK HER! YOU WERE JUST USING ME, WEREN'T YOU?! Ugh. I should've known that you were just like the rest of them...
Leo: I'm sorry I'm not what you wa-

Leo saw me... whoops...

Leo: Hey, Cath...

Everything just got so much worse for the three of us, especially when Chloe wouldn't stop punching and hurting Leo, and when I called an ambulance, and when the police arrived, and when Chloe was arrested, and when all I could do was stand and watch the chaos I'd created...
