Bella's POV:

"....So that's why Louis claims he's been going after me." I finished explaining everything to Harry. He looked at me with sad eyes and sighed.

"Maybe this means he'll leave you alone now that you told him to move on. He never once mentioned an ex girlfriend the entire time we were friends." Harry stated logically.

"He said none of you guys knew. So yeah... that's the story. I'm gonna head to sleep." I said walking towards the couch.

"No...We're not finished talking. We need discuss what's going on between me and you." He spoke with his husky British accent. I looked at him with hurt in my eyes and sighed.

"What's there to say? You didn't believe me when I told you I wasn't cheating on you, and then you grabbed me. I never thought you would stoop so low and call me all those harsh names, or even lay a hand on me with force. And for what? To make be feel like shit over something that wasn't even true?"

"Bella wait--"

"I'm just really fed up and a little scared of you to be completely honest... I can't look at you the same." I sighed.

"I'm so sorry... I was under so much bloody stress, and to think that you would cheat on me with another guy...let alone Zayn...." He slammed down on the table. "But none of that is true! And I love you so much. I want to fix things so I'll do whatever it takes." He reached out his hands to mine and held them. I looked deeply into his orbs and felt guilty for what I was about to do.

"Harry...I think we need to take a break. Just for a while, to let me get my head on straight and focus on myself." I whispered with tears rolling down my cheek. Harry pulled me in for a hug, taking me by surprise.

"You can take a break if you want... but I'm not giving up on you. I'll do whatever it takes to make things right, and if taking a break is what you need then by all means... go for it." He sniffled with his arms around me. Was he crying? "Just promise me you won't fall in love with Liam or that guy who works at 5,6,7,8?" He sighed. I pulled away and shook my head.

"Harry... I'm taking a break. That means we are no longer in a relationship. I have free will, and there's nothing you can do about it. Ok?" I suggested. He took a step back and shook his head.

"I understand... But you're gonna miss me." He smirked. I looked at him, rolled my eyes, and he pulled me in for a kiss. I returned it for a couple seconds, but pulled away a moment later.

"Harry, no. We're not dating anymore." I laughed walking away. "Good night." I whispered. How the hell am I letting him go... but how could I not? I wouldn't be in this position if it wasn't for him... but then again where would I be without him?
