Chapter 12

A misunderstanding

After 10 days of overthinking and no villains

Bella's pov

I can't stop thinking about what happened. How will I show up to fight knowing Panzie likes me? I am worried. I wonder how Panzie is doing. I don't want to break his heart, but I think I already did..

Aaron's pov

I don't want to see Bearzy after the talk we had. It wasn't a healthy talk at all! I wish I wouldn't have told her that I like her. I hope that it isn't going to be awkward when we see each other next time. Maybe if I act like nothing happened it won't ? I am stressed.

Liliana's pov

I am starting to like Panzie even more. He is funny, cute, caring and handsome. I can't think about any defect he has. I have Bearzy so much for stealing him from me! If it wasn't for her, he would have loved me first! I will try to help Panzie to get over Bearzy and then maybe he will love me! I am going to call him in the evening to talk. Right now I am getting ready for school. Yesterday was peaceful. The school didn't get cancelled for 10 days actually. Even though I hate the villains, I want to be Perry again and help Panzie and Bearzy (Panzie more ofc)

*Time skip to the first class*

Bella's pov

I don't know how more I can take. Aaron doesn't like me, and Panzie, my partner who I never thought of liking, LIKES ME. The universe hates me! I told Aaron I like him a long time ago (2 weeks ago), but it's still a bit awkward when we see each other. The good news are that Liliana seems happy all of the sudden. I am going to ask her what happened.

''Hey Lili! ''

''Oh hi''

''Why are you so happy? Did something happen?'' I say, excited.

''Come somewhere more private.''

''Okay I guess.''

We meet up in the girls bathroom.

''So what is it?"'

''Well, Panzie told Bearzy how he feels and she rejected himmm!''

''O-Oh..''

''Aren't you happy for me?''

''Why are you even happy for this?! It's so sad!''

''You don't understand. You know I loved Panzie for ages and I can finally get him to fall in love with me without Bearzy staying in the way of our love.''

''I don't think Bearzy meant to upset you..''

''Yes she did! Plus I don't like that she's mean to Panzie all the time!''

''You think so..?''

''Of course.''

''I don't have anything more to say. ''

''Ok then let's go to class.''

*in the class*

''Hey Aaron!''

''Oh hey Bella!''

''Can I talk to you in private Liliana?''

''Oh sure!"

''Ok I will wait here..''

Aaron's pov

I am going to tell Liliana my identity. I know she's a good friend and she would never ditch me with my secrets. Plus we have gotten close since I told Bearzy I like her. Moth stopped with the vilains for the longest time since me and Bearzy are heroes, but the 10 days off don't really bother me. Let's get back to the point.

''Liliana, I have to tell you something.''

''What is it Aaron?''

''I am Panzie actually.''

''W-WHAT!?''

''I know it doesn't seem believable, but I have proof in case.''

''I believe you don't worry! I am so happy it's you! We can see each other and talk in person about your double life! ''

''Be quiet! Someone might hear you!''

Liliana's pov

I am the happiest person ON THE ENTIRE EARTH. I just found out Panzie's identity! I didn't expect him to be Aaron, but who cares! I can be together with him!

Bella's pov

I wonder where are they and what are they talking. Are they talking about me? Maybe I am overthinking this too much. I will go get a glass of water from the cantine. I am always forgetful so of course I forgot my bottle at home.

Liliana's pov

I am just staring at Aaron. Is he going to say something? I want to kiss him so bad but I know he still has a broken heart. Maybe I can fix it for him now, not later. I will do what my heart says. I won't regret that. I lean to kiss him but he pulls away in shock.

''You know I still like Bearzy.''

''I-I didn't mean it. I don't want to take advantage of you.''

Bella's pov

As I am going downstairs to get water I am listening to music. I still managed to hear what Liliana said. What did she mean by that? I don't want to spy on them but still…. I won't! I will just listen to their conversation.

''I know you love me, but you have to accept my feelings. We can still stay friends.''

What?! She loves Aaron?! I can't believe she lied about liking Panzie! She actually likes Aaron too… I thought we were best friends and we wouldn't lie to each other. I think Aaron likes her. Or maybe not? I am going to talk to them because this is not okay. I am heartbroken. I still can't get used to the idea. What if they will become a couple?!

''Bella likes you as Aaron, so let's not tell her okay?''

What does she mean with 'as Aaron'? She can be so weird! I am done.. I am talking to them right now.

''I can't believe you Liliana! You know I like Aaron and you still do this! I thought we were friends.''

''No! You don't understand! It's not like that!''

''She's right! You don't understand!'' says Aaron.

''I think I understand it all! I am not dumb! Be happy without me.''

Then I decide to walk away because I said what I had to. They are both going after me. I can't stand these lies. I will move with Lola. I didn't even get the water. I wonder what's the clock? OH MY GOSH. I am late! I have to go! I start running fast to the class. The teacher is already in the class.

''Why are you late Bella? I was about to mark you absent.''

''I am so sorry! I wanted to get some water.''

''Take a seat.''

I am last in the catalogue, so that means she marked Aaron and Liliana as absent already? Well, they deserve this. I can't focus on my work in class because of them. I moved with Lola, and she doesn't mind me sitting with her. She seems worried about my friendship with Aaron and Liliana. I can see that on her face. She is much kinder than her twin. Or that's what I think. Suddenly, the last two people I wanted to see on earth disturb my thoughts by entering the class in the middle of the lesson.

''You can leave this class. I marked you absent a long time ago. You should be ashamed.''

''Please miss, don't do that!'' says Aaron.

''Go to the principal's office!''

''But-''

''No buts. Go.''

They leave the class angry and sad at the same time. I don't get why they are sad. They are the ones that broke my heart forever.

*Time skip to the end of the classes*

Bella's pov

I didn't even look at Liliana and Aaron. I know I am a little harsh, but I just can't stand them being together! They tried talking to me multiple times, but I just used the silent treatment. The most hurtful une in my opinion. It's hurtful that arguing actually. I am happy there aren't no villains. I can't deal with two problems at the same time. There are three actually. Aaron and Liliana, Panzie and the villain. I am just gonna go to sleep. Maybe I will get my mind off this.

Liliana's pov

I can't believe I lost Bella as a friend! I am so stupid! What was in my head? I don't even recognise myself anymore. I was nicer. This love for Panzie/Aaron made me so blind about more important things. There are other boys on earth I can love! Sadly my heart doesn't want to love someone else. I have to sacrifice my feelings to keep Bella and Aaron as friends. I will do this to prove I can be myself again and have caring and nice friends.

Aaron's pov

This is the worst day of my life! Even worse than the wedding. About it, the wedding didn't organise because Emma and her mum have a trip planned and then we have so it is going to wait. This is the only good thing. I have too many problems! Bearzy doesn't like me, I lost Bella as a friend and Liliana loves me to the point she wants to sacrifice everything. She is just like Emma. I will take a break from school. I will ask my father if I can be home-schooled again. Only for a short period of time. I think it's for the best.
