4:meeting the boys

JJ's POV 

'bro you need to leave, I don't know who you think you are coming over to us and upsetting her. Now leave before I do something I might regret.' I threatened.  'JJ! Don't, hes not worth it and think of the girls.' harry says and manages to break the tension. ' And you. Leave you don't wanna mess around with us' harry says hoping it will do something and doesn't make the situation worse because Harry had no fighting abilities. Charles eventually left but 'claimed' he wasn't finished with Bella. 

Suddenly out of nowhere we heard Bella screaming and crying in the back of the car. 'hey? Hey you're okay Hes gone.' I reassured her and she just looked at me. she looked at me and smiled faintly. 'should we get going? You can come back to ours and get ready there, he won't find where we live. I promise... Bella' Harry said as he stuttered her name. The other girls disagreed because they weren't the one, he wanted. 'well head to the hotel, well meet you at the club at 7. be safe' Liv added. 'we'll protect her. Trust us he won't Wanna come near her if he sees us all tonight' I boasted

'us all?' I mumbled after coming to terms with what I just experienced. 'yeah, um me, JJ and the boys, youll meet them later, freezy and lux.' harry explained. 'try and not panic they'll protect you just like how JJ did. You'll be fine' he smiled trying to reassure me. 'S-so theyre gonna be 9 of you, p-plus me and the girls?' my voice began to shake. ' ayo don't worry me and the guys will protect you and not all of us will be drinking. Tobi Josh and Vikk said they wont be drinking, well Tobi isnt a fan of drinking so hes gonna be 100% sober. The sidemen will protect you alright bel.' JJ said in a more reassuring tone. 

I became calm until I saw the house the boys were living in. 'OMG' no way is this YOUR house?!' I shouted and the boys just laughed. As we approached the door a smaller man opened the door. 'hey guys, theyre back and it looks like they brought company too' he says as he noticed me. 'Hi, im bella.' I introduced myself awkwardly. 'hey im vikk, come on in and ill introduce the others to you.' as we walked in the 4 other boys just stared in our direction. 'theres Simon, the tallest one, Josh, the bearded one, Tobi, the apple juice lover, and Ethan, the ginge member of the group. Guys this is bella.' I smiled and said hey to the guys. 'so how do you two know her?' ethan quizzes JJ and Harry. 

After Harry awkwardly explains how he knows me, there was a knock on the door and I jumped out my skin. Harry put his arm around me and explained that its only lux and freezy. 'hey guys how are.. Woah hello beautiful!' freezy shouts when he saw me. ' boys this is Bella, shes here with friends but they went to the hotel and bella came here with me and JJ.' And after saying that Harry, with my consent, explained the full story. 

The boys were left speechless and all showed sympathy. 'its fine, I just thought maybe I would have been able to get over him but he just appears everywhere i go...' I began to say as I get a text from the girls. 'sorry it's the girls asking if were ready, they wanted to get some pre drinks before we celebrate' freezy looked confused. 'wait so your celebrating' 'um yeah it was my 21st birthday a few days ago and we decided to wait til the weekend and celebrate then because liv also finished uni today' I explained 'well then, we have 2 birthdays and a uni graduate to celebrate! Hurry let's get ready and party!!' freezy lightens up and harry shown me the way to his room. 'you can get ready in here; I'll wait outside for you.' harry says as he closed the door behind him. I grabbed my dress and makeup and began to get ready. 

Harry knocked on the door ' bella? Can I come in?' before I could answer he opened the door slowly 'Sure, im just doing my makeup' I explained and he came in and passed me a drink. 'so were gonna pick the girls up from the hotel before' he paused and his eyes began to water. 'hey what's wrong?' I asked symmetrically. He says nothing but points to my arms. He saw that I was trying to cover my scars with foundation. 'I tried to hide my arms but harry pulled them towards them. 'why...?' he repeated 'why would you hurt yourself like this?' a tear escaped my eyes and i knew I had to tell him. So, I did... The full story.
