HARRY STYLES POV

Hurt, confusion, and soon rage coursed though my entire being. Who were they to do this to me? Who I was to let this happen without even suspecting a thing?

Gemma.

I loved her. I completely and utterly loved her. I loved her with everything I had.

I may not have the chance to tell her this but I did. I gave her everything she ever wanted, I could tell she resented me for it but I did it anyway, I would have given her the world if I could.

She knew my deepest and darkest secrets, and I thought I knew hers. I told her things I hadn't even told my four bestest and closest friends, Louis, Zayn, Niall and Liam.

Liam.

Daddy Direction cheating on his girlfriend? And with mine? I just couldn't believe it. Liam was always so sensible; he had always respected other people's feelings, always taking into account everyone.

Why would he hurt me like this?

Why would he do this to Danielle, the girl he claimed to be in love with, the girl he was set to marry in just a few months time?

'You fucking bastard!' I heard myself scream, throwing punches, fist colliding with Liam's jaw and then nose, 'Why the fuck would you do this to me?'

'Harry? What the fuck? What are you talking about? What's going on?' Liam mumbled trying to push me off, only just realising I was now on top of him.

'Like you don't know!' I yelled, punching him in the gut.

'No I really don't' Liam cried, tears in his eyes, blood pouring out of his nose.

'This is why you told me to stay away from her! I thought you hated her but it was the complete opposite, you were shagging her behind my back!' I cried back, voice breaking.

It was only then when I felt several arms tightly grab around me, pulling me back, that I heard the voices telling me to stop.

'Harry stop it!' Zayn growled.

'Come on mate, calm down, you're hurting him!' Lou softly whispered in my ear.

'Harry please please!' Niall cried in the background.

I didn't know what I was doing. Blinded with rage I flailed around in the three boys arms, reaching out to attack Liam. I intended on killing him. I intended on ripping his heart out of his body, doing what he did to me but in a more literal sense.

'Harry stop' a soft whispered voice came from the doorway, stopping me, allowing me to come to my senses. I hated that she had this effect on me.

'What's going on?' Louis asked calmly, looking between Liam and I.

'I don't know, he just attacked me' Liam sighed, turning to look at me coldly. I had done a good job I had to say. Split lip, blood nose, swollen eye, his face was pretty bloody and he looked like he was going to be limping for a while due to the pained expression he gave when standing up.

Louis opened his mouth to speak, turning to me. 'Harry what's-'

'He knows Li, it was in the paper this morning' Gemma interrupted, her chocolate brown eyes slowly locking on mine, sliding a newspaper across the ground towards us, the photo of Liam and Gemma close to locking lips facing up. 'Not everything of course, otherwise he wouldn't be this mad, but he knows.'

Knowingly I felt four sets of eyes bore into my back; sympathy and confusion in three, looking between me, Liam and Gemma, and fear and guilt in another.

'Li, go call Danielle and explain, she's bound to have seen it by now,' the beautiful Australian girl before me spoke, 'tell her everything, and I mean everything, I'm not going to let this come between you.' She turned towards him giving him a slow sad nod, letting a small reassuring smile pull at her lips.

The break of eye contact gave me the chance to look at the other boys, also nodding at them I told them to leave; Gemma and I had a lot to discuss.

'Look Harry, please, it's not what it looks like,' Gemma pleaded, attempting to grab hold of my hands.

'You're practically snogging him! How can it not be what it looks like!' I yelled pulling away from her reach, pacing back and forth across the room, 'I can't believe him, the nerve, I can't believe you!"

'Don't blame Liam Harry, he would have told you sooner but I told him not to, it was all my fault, I'm sorry, it's really not what it looks like, please let me explain!'

'Why? So you can tell me more lies, I can't Gem. I trusted you, I really did. Three weeks ago, you told me you were busy, you were working and you didn't have time to answer my calls, you didn't have any reception but that's bull isn't it?'

She opened her mouth to speak once more but I wasn't having any of it.

'You were off shagging my best friend,' I told her coldly, regaining eye contact. She was shaking her head, crying silently.

'No Harr-'

'It's over.'

For once, she wasn't the one to pull away, she wasn't the one to drop eye contact, and she wasn't the one to run away.

I was. I was the one to leave.

Gemma Cameron told me she would break my heart.

She wasn't wrong.

Hope you like it! This is my first fanfic so I hope it's not too bad!

Sorry if this chapter doesn't make that much sense at the moment but it should once I start getting into the story more.

If you read the story I started, 'Stole My Heart', this is the same one, I just thought of different ideas and to make them work I decided to rewrite the first chapter etc.

Thank you for reading lovely people & if you wish, leave a review and let me know what you think so far! :)
