Chap 21
Part 1: Under the black mask.
Bella's POV:

I was sitting on the coach and crying on Niall's shoulders then. All the band and Mihrap couldn't say anything. They were all muted as fish. I sobbed:
"Why? Why? Why? Why do I never get a real friend? Why is this life so rude with all these things? Jealousy, betrayal, lie?"
Liam said:
"Bella, i will be fine. tu still have us. We are your friends.”
Louis was so angry.:
"Fuck? I will go to kill her."

Zayn looked at me sadly:
"It's because of me. I am the reason for everything she's done. I'm sorry, Bella."
I even cried louder:
"No, it's me. It's me. It's me."

Bella's POV :
1 hora ago

I was lectura the book called "Gone with the wild" while I was waiting for the result from the police. I sweared that if I could find the person that recorded the video, I would kill him o her without a doubt. I felt so resposible for this scandal. While the band was in trouble, I couldn't do anything but sit here and read books. That was totally crazy. I knew that scandal would affect One Direction badly. I knew the way other members in the band look at me. I also knew that I deserved all the hate their fans had for me. But I just couldn't give up on Niall. He made me come alive again and I appreciated that I couldn't give up. I couldn't give up our love. We had overcome a lot of troubles together and I loved him. Above all, my amor for him was the most important thing that made me try. I had to prove that I deserved Niall and I deserved the happiness. I wished we could overcome that problem soon. When I was deeply of thoughts, I heard someone knocking the door.

"Come on in" I said, still poking my nose into the book.
It was Mihrap that shyly opened the door with a sad serious face. I could feel that something very bad was happening.
I asked worriedly:
"Vas happening? tu look awful."

Mihrap was out of words:
"Ah..Uhm...Ah... Bella, tu have to calm down when I tell tu that."
I bit my bottom lips and said:
"Okey, tell me. I'll be fine."
Mihrap unwillingly gave me a piece of paper, saying:
"Here is the result from the police..."

I opened the paper and I couldn't believe in what I saw. I was out of words. I didn't know how to feel: hate, sadness o surprise. The result it was... Vicky Marie Graham - my old best friend.
"Oh my God, how can it be like that? Why do I have to face with all of these suck things? My life is... suck. Everyone could be evil to me but why her? Why was the one I used to trust most? Why was my bestfriend who I has known for my whole life?" I thought, crying my eyes out.

Mihrap gently stroked my arms and hugged me:
"Bella, please don't cry. It isn't worthy. tu are the best girl I've known. It's just because of their jealousy."
I couldn't stop my tears from rolling on my face. I sobbed:
"But...but...but....she is the one I believed most. She used to be my only bestfriend. I share with her everything. And I have known her for over 8 years. Why, Mihrap? Please tell me why all people have to hate me ? Mihrap, am I so hateable? tu hate me too, right?"

She shook her head:
"No, no way, Bella"
I dicho thoughtlessly:
"I kissed Zayn, I hugged him, he touched me, how can't tu hate me?"
She dicho sadly:
"I'm not that kind of girls, Bella. I know Zayn loves you. I do amor him. But it doesn't mean I have to hate tu just because he loves you, because I'm your friend. tu know, friends...

When I heard Mihrap say all these things, I knew that I lost a fake friend but I found a new real angelical one. I hugged Mihrap tightly and burst into tears.

Zayn's POV:

Niall was sitting siguiente to me confusedly. Finding that he was too ashamed to say anything, I said:
“Niall, how will we solve this problem?”
He just shook his head tiredly, grumbling:
“I don’t know.”

I admitted:
“Actually, Niall, I think it’s time we should have a talk”
He looked up at me:
“I have nothing to say!”
I lifted my eye-brows and raised my voice:
“Really? tu do? I don’t think so, Niall.”
He got a bit angry:
“What? I’m very confused now. I don’t want to argue with tu Zayn.”

When Niall was about to walk away, I held his arm back, saying under my breath:
“I’m really sorry, Niall.”
Niall turned back and stared at me for a while. Then suddenly… he hugged me and said:
“Bro, tu are my best friend. We shouldn’t have fought over a girl like that. We are family. I must be the one to say sorry. I was too selfish to you.”
Oh, Nialler! He was always my little brother.
“Yeah,Niall, you’re right. We are a band. Bella has her own choice and I respect that.”

Niall gave me his usual beautiful smile. Realizing that we still had problem to solve, I asked Niall:
“What will we do now with that bitchy Vicky?”
He shouted:
“You know, I just wanna kill her.”
“Okey, okey, I know. Me, too. But we have to change this. I don’t want to see Bella cry anymore. She deserves the best thing in this world. It was me that made Vicky become evil like that. So only I can solve it. I will go to talk to her.”
Niall agreed:
“Yeah, I think it’s a good idea. I wanna go with tu too.”

I asked:
“Are tu sure?”
Niall nodded without a doubt. Looking at his dark blue eyes, I knew that all these troubles even made us become closer.
