Bella's POV:

I am feeling like complete shit right now. Zayn was right, I shouldn't be back teaching but Harry would be too suspicious if I took a few days off. I know he drove me here to make sure Louis wasn't going to be there waiting for me, but he would never tell me that. The restaurant was only a few blocks away, So I figured I would be fine.

I walked two blocks, and had one more left when I noticed a figure was following me every corner I turned, but whenever I looked back, it was gone. When I walked slower, it walked slower, and if I walked faster, it walked faster. I was getting a little freaked out, so I pulled out my phone and texted Harry that I was almost there so he would be waiting for me incase anything happened. Finally, I arrived and nothing had happened to me. Score.

"Hey babe." I smiled greeting my boyfriend with a kiss at the restaurant. He pulled me in for a small hug, and squeezed a little two tight causing me to wince in pain.

"Are you alright?" He asked releasing me.

"Mhmm.. Yes I'm good." I smiled slowly sitting down. He didn't say much, mostly just studied the menu. I could tell something was bothering him.

"So how's the shop? I can't wait for it to open." I said excitedly.

"Yup. It's great." He nodded.

"Ok, am I going to have to pry it out of you or are you going to tell me what's wrong?" I asked now getting annoyed. He looked up from the menu and shook his head, eyes full of anger.

"Is there anything you need to tell me?" He asked cocking his head sideways. I sat there nervously and shook my head, lying. "There's nothing? Cause I think your text messages with Zayn beg to differ." He growled standing up and walking out of the restaurant. I went after him and reached for his wrist, but he shrugged it off. How the hell did he find out?

"Harry...Harry stop it. I can explain everything." I shouted. We were causing a scene now, great.

"Explain how you're cheating on me with Zayn? How the hell can you explain that? I've been there for you from day one, protected you, never left your side and this is how you treat me?" He screamed. Cheating on him? What? My mouth dropped open in disbelief. Before I could respond though, I noticed Louis' face in the distance.

"Harry... We need to get out of here." I whispered calmly reaching out to grab his hand.

"No, I'm not going anywhere with you, you fucking cheating slut!" He yelled in my face. I took a step back and didn't really know what to say. Of course that isn't true, but it still hurts that he's screaming at me like this. I saw Louis inching closer, smirking at me from a distance.

"You don't understand, we need to get out of here. Now." I whispered with a shaking voice.

"Why is your other boyfriend here? Hmm?" He screamed.

"Fucking stop it Harry you have no idea what you're talking about! None of that's true!" I screamed at the top of my lungs, pulling out a voice inside of me that I didn't know I had. He looked back at me with disgust and shock. "I'll explain, everything, but we need to get out of here NOW." I shouted. Harry started walking in Louis' direction, but I stood their frozen.

"You wanna talk? Let's go." He said urging me to follow him that way.

"N-n-n-not that way. Come with me back to the studio, quickly." I shook walking backwards the other way. I wanted to make sure Louis didn't follow, but I lost sight of him in the crowd of people. When we finally arrived to 5,6,7,8 it was empty, so I brought him inside and sent a quick text to Zayn to tell him what was happening, praying he was still in the area. We stood in silence for a couple minutes until Harry finally spoke up.

"This is fucking ridiculous Bella." He complained sitting down on the waiting room sofa. "Tell me what's going on with you and Zayn right now." I looked at him with watering eyes and sighed.

"I can't." I croaked out. "It's for the best if you don't know, but Harry I promise nothing is going on between us." He looked at me enraged, and walked angrily towards me.

"Stop fucking lying to my face Bella! I read the texts, 'no one can find out', and 'it's a big secret.' You both woke up in the same bloody room for crying out loud! Stop acting innocent when you're the guilty bitch in this situation! I'm not a moron, do you think I am?" He asked putting his arms on my shoulders and shaking me. I started crying in his grip because first off, I was scared of how mad he was and second because it was really hurting.

"Harry nothing is going on between me and Zayn!" I whispered sobbing. Suddenly, the door opened to the studio and Zayn walked in.

"What the hell is going on in here?" He asked prying Harry's hands off me.

"Oh look, your boyfriends here. Should I call Perrie? I'm sure she'd love to hear this! Oh and one more thing." Harry smirked before punching Zayn right in the same spot Louis hit him. Zayn immediately dropped to the ground clutching his stomach, causing me to rush to his aid.

"Jesus Harry, you're so fucking annoying!" I shouted. "Stop it!" I looked at Zayn who had pain in his eyes, and I lifted his shirt revealing many bruises and bloody blotches from his recent beating with Zayn.

"I didn't do that..." Harry's voice trailed off looking at how badly Zayn was actually injured. "Where the fuck is that from?" He asked with a little guilt in his voice.

"Sit down and shut up. I'll explain." Zayn barked from the ground. I shook my head at him, still crying but he nodded at me. "No more secrets."

"I'm waiting." Harry said coldly. I stayed on the floor with Zayn and we both explained what happened.

"This is basically it. When I was going to have lunch with Bella, I took a shortcut through the alley next door and Louis was in there waiting. He jumped me and beat me, and I guess Bella heard. She came back there and when Louis heard her, she tried to get away but he dragged her to where I was and threw her onto the concrete next to me. He said he was back for Bella, and that he wants her for himself. Before anything else could happen, the police came and he got away." Zayn explained clutching his stomach. Harry looked at both of us with tears in his eyes and pure sorrow.

"...Why didn't you tell me..." He croaked out, putting his hands on his head.

"I didn't want to worry you... Things are finally going well in your life, This would just stress you out and the shop opens next week, and..." I started crying again. I really didn't want him to know.

"The police are looking for Louis, but I'm sure he's long gone by now..." Zayn sighed shaking his head.

"No... I saw him today." I whispered staring into space, avoiding eye contact with either boy.

"Why the fuck didn't you call the police!" Zayn shouted at me.

"Seriously Bell? What the fuck!" Harry added.

"It was outside the restaurant... That's why I was begging you to leave with me right away.. He was smirking and making twisted faces at me." I sobbed, leaning onto Zayn's shoulder.

"I'm sorry..." Harry said silently trying to come near me, but I pulled away. "What the hell?" He asked.

"Mate, you were just screaming and shaking her accusing her of something that's not even true. Back off." Zayn growled. Harry let out a small cry and wiped his eyes standing up.

"I'm gonna find him... And when I do I'm going to KILL him." He spoke angrily, storming out of the studio.

Perfect. This is exactly what I wanted to avoid.
