A/n : Lots of drama coming uppppppppp!!!!!!!!

Chapter : 28

Angelica's POV

We got ready and left the beach house. The stage was set up on the rocky side of the beach only. At least that's what Niall told me. I had no intention of ruining his show but I couldn't keep it inside me anymore. I'm done with his shit. I love him alot and may never stop loving him even if I die sad and ragged but I'd rather prefer a life of loneliness than permanent misery and uncertainty most of all. I finally want something from him. I want his love and stability. And I'm gonna tell him that. Jane had opened my eyes. And I'm not going to live in an illusion anymore.

As we neared the backstage I saw Niall and Harry chatting. From the corner of my eyes I could see an instant smile appear on Jane's face. They are so cute. She never shows it but she's head over heels for that guy. "Hey! What's up ladies?" Harry approached us and hugged us one by one. I kept looking at Niall who didn't utter a word and sat quietly at the corner not looking us in the eye. Coward.

"We are fine. I guess we came a bit early?" Jane said breaking the silence and diverting my constant and awkward glares at Niall's direction. "Come, I'll show you both the stage. It's huge! " Harry cheered trying to ease the tension but all in vain. "It's alright Harry. Why don't you show the site to Jane while I have a chat with Niall?" I jumped to the point. They nodded and headed to other lads leaving me and Niall in pure solitude.

Jane's words had given a sense of confidence.

"Niall?" I spoke in a rather high tone which made him stand up and look at me with an expression of guilt. Seeing his sad face made my heart weak and a sudden urge to hug him and tell him everything is alright arose which proved to be really hard to curb. I can't go weak on my knees. Not a good time Angie.

"Just listen me ou-"

"No, you listen to me!" I had a power in my voice after a long time. He stood there with his head down.

"Look me in the eye Niall. Look..At..me."

Tears formed in my eyes as he held his head up. This is gonna be hard. "I can't do this," I broke down. He approached towards me but I stepped back in protest. "Don't. Please don't! Don't hug me or kiss me when you can't do this for the rest of your life. Don't tell me everything is alright when it's not," I cried.

"I'm sorry Ang-" he tried to coax few words but I cut him off.

"I don't want to hear any sorry. I'm done with you. I'm done with your drinking and I'm done with your shitty insecurity. Even after five years of relationship and five months of engagement you still are not sure then you should find yourself a village girl who'll just do what you want," I said all at once without a pause. I turned and before leaving I spoke out pointing my finger towards him,"You don't even deserve a frigging cow." I handed our engagement ring to him and left him with his thoughts.

As soon as I was a considerable distance away from him, I could finally break down. I sat near a rock and cried my heart out. What have I done! What if he doesn't love me enough to come back for me? How will I live without him? All these questions boggled up my mind and made me wanna scream. After almost twenty minutes of sobbing I got up and headed towards the beach house. I'll go weak if I see him again. Besides, mom needs me. I booked a flight to Manchester while my way back to the house.

I saw the lock of the house open. It was almost eight-thirty. Who could be here. The show was to start half an hour ago. I knocked a few times but when no one responded I entered the house to find Jane who seemed to be looking for someone or something. "What are you looking for?" My voice was croaked from crying and my eyes were sore and red.

"I was just... Oh my gosh! What happened to you?" She said realising my situation which were evident from my appearance and smudged liner. "I.. I... It's over," I tried to sound as heartless as I could've been but she just hug me which made me sob again.

"It was my fault," she covered her mouth in shock.

"No, it was not," I said.

"No! I...I told you to ..to. I ruined your relationship," she sank on the couch.

"No you didn't. You were right," I sobbed a bit, eased her a bit, cried a bit, okay, cried a lot. "I can't find Niall," she spoke out as I wiped my tears."What you mean?" I stood up. "He was supposed to sing but no one could find him. Harry sent me to look for him here while Zayn covered his parts," she explained.

"You'll find him in the basement." I said without any hesitation or thought cause that's where he goes when he's upset. He's like a little girl sometimes. "As for me, I'll head out to my mom. Just booked a flight," I continued and went to my room. "I think you should go talk to him. He won't listen to me or anyone," she leaned onto the doorframe with her arms crossed.

"How can you even say that? You haven't even tried." I said packing my stuff without looking at her.

"Oh I tried ten minutes ago." Her words made me stop in my tracks. I raised my eyebrows looking at her. She just nodded and left. Fuck! Why does this happen to me? I drag myself with a strong will and climbed down the basement.

Niall's POV

I heard the clicking of footwear again. Who the heck is it now? "I told you don't come here!" I shouted.

"Maybe you should try to clean the mess you just made. It relaxes one's mind," that voice made me turn as I saw Angie with her arms crossed.

"I..I'm so sorry. I was a jerk. Please don't leave me," I practically begged. Every word came out from the core of my heart cause I knew that I'd be a wreck without her.

"I.. I.. how.. How can you expect me to forgive you just like that?"

Angelica's POV

I was taken aback at his sudden change of his attitude. I didn't know what to say. "I.. I promise, I won't ever do that to you again. God! I'm so stupid. Please marry me or I'd be a wreck without you. You see, I ... I don't even know where my socks are. Shit! That came out wrong. You're not a maid. Fuck!" He paced back and forth trying to come up explanations but utterly failed. An expression of adoration covered my face. His eyes were a bit sore and the tip of his nose was a bit red which means he cried.

"Stop!" He stood still instantly. "I need stability Niall," I made my point clear.

"I... I'll marry you. Now if you want. I don't wanna lose you. You're the best thing ever happened to me." To be honest, it's the most romantic line he's ever told me. "It's just that I...I sat there and imagined what my life will be without you and..I .... I couldn't stand the thought of it," he spoke out.

"It's not a chick flick Niall. I'm not gonna fall in your arms. If you love me then-"

"Anything,"

"Leave business- forever."

Jane's POV

"It's gonna be intense," Harry said as we walked away from Niall and Angelica. "I hope they get back together," I replied. We reached out to the boys who greeted us with hugs and I finally was able to meet Sarah. We hugged each other. We all went out to see a crowd of more than five hundred people. "Did I ever mention One Direction was pretty big at that time? No just a high school band. Famous in whole of London," she giggled as I gaped at large gathering. "You sure didn't," I cheered excitedly.

"Well, it's just a handful," Harry spoke from behind.

"Good luck for that," I said still wide eyed.

"Thanks babe," he kissed my cheek and appeared on the stage with an enthusiasm that I never knew he had. There are just so many sides of this guy.

"Hey babe?" Sarah's eyes shot up as Harry left.

"We are just posing for Niall. Long story. I'll tell you later," I cleared out the air.

"I can't wait till your act changes into reality," she mumbled in her breath.

"Heard that," I said.

"Serves my purpose," I laughed.

Louis, Liam and Zayn who I supposed the black haired guy was, appeared along with Harry. But Niall was nowhere to be found. The boys looked around the stage but we're as confused as me. Harry signalled me to look for him in the backstage.

After a while when I came back and mouthed him that I didn't find him he came off the stage and whispered in my ear," Look in the beach house." I nodded and tried to escape from the never ending crowd. They were going mad. I never thought girls had such an adrenaline rush. They practically grabbed Harry while the poor guy struggled to get out of their grip. So many mature women going horny, what a funny sight.

He stumbled back on stage while the lads laughed at him and continued with their show.

I opened the lock of the beach house. I looked everywhere for him but no sign. I suddenly heard a smashing sound. I tried to figure out from where the sound come but it was from ground. Basement! I searched a bit to find a lonely corner with uneven floor. After some struggle, I was able lift heavy flooring. There was a staircase. It was so isolated. "Who's there?" Thundered a voice which I instantly recognised.

"It's me Niall, it's Jane," I said as I crept quietly downstairs.

"It's not really a good time, Jane," I could see his figure and then his face. He was flustered with a deep shade of red. Eyes, nose cheeks- everything red. A tear fell from his eyes which he wiped instantly.

"I.. I.. know about it Niall. She talked about it to me," I confessed.

"She doesn't even trust me anymore. No offense but she told what she felt to you and not me. She barely knows you," he sank into the old sofa with his head in his hands.

"Hey, I understand it, completely. I'll try to help you in every way I can," I try to ease him but he shook his head.

"You can't do anything. It's me who has to make things right," he standing up. I heard a knock at the door. "Stay here," I said but he didn't seem to listen. Poor guy! Did I sabotage their relationship?

I looked for the person who seemed to have entered the house already." What are you looking for?"

__________________________________

I left the house in hope that things get better between the two. Forgive me God for I have lied but only to save a beautiful relationship. But technically I only lied that I was looking for Niall but that too she came to know about when I told her I had already tried to persuade him.

I headed back to where the stage was. It was convenient that stage and beach house were just at a walking distance. I could hear loud music. As I pushed my way towards the front I saw Harry who seemed the happiest guy in the world. All the guys sang their heart out. He caught a sight of me and winked at my direction. It just made me giggle.

A few minutes later I saw Niall propping up to the center stage. He apologised to the audience for late appearance. But I couldn't see Angelica anywhere.....
