I can feel the flames on my skin
Crimson red paint on my lips
If a man talks shit, then I owe him nothing
I don't regret it one bit, 'cause he had it coming

Emma's P.O.V

"Where you pooping or something?" Charlotte asked me in low voice so nobody could hear us. Long story short, I kept myself locked in her room for almost an hour trying to put the pieces together. What? My Sherlock was waking up.

"Yeah. Got a horrible gas. I am good now though." I said and she chuckled. "What are we watching by the way?" I asked sitting beside Lucas who kissed my cheek making me give him a smile.

"Angry Birds 2." Mason said. "I love that movie. Why aren't you playing it?What are we waiting for? Christmas?" I said and everyone laughed. "Justin must be coming down in few." Charlotte said and I saw Mason secretly roll his eyes. Oh, how would I love to poke those eyes out.

You will get your karma, buddy.

Just wait and watch.

Justin came downstairs after few minutes and then Charlotte played the movie and everyone started watching it. But I couldn't really concentrate on it because my mind was occupied with my thoughts and millions of questions.

*3 days later*

"Wanna go for shopping?" Charlotte asked but I shook my head. "But you love shopping." Charlotte said which was true. I love shopping but after a lot of thinking and using my mind, I was going to ask Justin for the whole story. I cannot put the pieces together by myself. He needs to tell me all of it. And if he doesn't do it the easy way than he'll have to do it my way. "I am not in mood. And I gotta do some important work Mom told me to do." I said and she nodded.

"Why don't you hang out with... Mason?" I suggested and she looked at me like I had grown three heads. "You are telling me to hang out with Mason? I thought you hated him." She said looking at me strangely.

"I do hate him but you can hang out with him if you want to. Go for shopping with him. You can shop and you won't be bored. It's a win-win situation." I shrugged and she nodded still give me a strange look.

"Okay. If you say so." She shrugged. "I'll go and call him so we can hang out." She said before walking away to get her phone.

____________

I dialed Justin's number before calling him. I put the phone near my ear waiting for him to receive the call.

I was waiting but he didn't picked up the call. I rolled my eyes and called him again. "What's taking you so long?" I murmured under my breath.

He picked it up after three ring. "Hey Em." I heard him say. "Hey Justin. Can we meet? I want to talk about something." I said licking my lips. "Yeah sure what is it?" He said. "We cannot talk on the phone. We gotta talk face to face." I said and there was a silent for few seconds on the other line of the call. "Okay sure. I am home right now. You can come and then we can talk." He said. "Cool. Bye. I'll meet you in few." I said hanged up.

I got out of my car that was parked in the driveway of Justin's house and walked to the door before ringing the doorbell. What? I was going to make him talk one way or another.

Justin opened the door after few minutes and raised an eyebrow when he saw me standing on the door.

"You're gonna invite me in or no?" I smirk and he playfully rolled his eyes before letting me inside the house.

"What do want to talk about?" Justin asked as we both sat on two separate couches. "3 days ago, when we were here for movie night, I heard you and Mason arguing." I said and he grew tensed. "You were eavesdropping on me!?" He said loudly. "Oh shut up. You should be thanking me that I did eavesdropped." I said rolling my eyes and he scoffed. "Listen Bieber, I heard every single thing and I want you to tell me what happened." I said seriously and he sighed.

"I-I can't tell you or everything would be ruined." He shuttered and his eyes grew watery. "Nothing would be ruined, Justin. Just imagine maybe I can help you with everything." I said softly and he took a deep breath looking down at the floor. 

"Don't think over it. We can do it the easy way or my way. You gotta choose what you gotta choose because I will get to know it whether you want me or not." I said and he looked at me.

"Are you sure nothing will happen?" He asked and I nodded. "100% sure. You can trust your sister here." I smiled and he nodded while smiling a little.

"What do you want to know?" He asked. "So, I heard you and Mr. Motherfucker Mason arguing and I know it has to do something with Charlotte. And I think Mason is behind your and Charlotte's breakup." I said and he nodded again.

"I want to know everything. Trust me, I know how to handle that asshole. Why do you think he wasn't making any smart remarks towards me when we were here?" I said. "Because he knows you'll come back with a better one and he would be embarrassed in front of everyone?" Justin said and I nodded.

"Exactly! So tell me everything. Whatever happened, when it happened. Every single thing. I promise I won't interrupt you in between." I said and he sighed.

"It happened on Charlotte's birthday party. She was looking so sexy in that dress and I wanted to just... you know. So I dragged her in bathroom with me when she was talking with you. We-"

"-Honestly, you two just such a horn dog. Couldn't you wait until everyone was gone?" I said interrupting him and he gave me a stern look. "Okay. This is zipped until you complete your story." I said moving my fingers around my mouth as if I was zipping a chain around it. I motioned him to continue with my hand.

"We kissed and I was kissing her neck when she heard some noise. It was clicking of camera and she got really nervous and started worrying that someone would snitch on us. I went to look outside the window but saw no one there. I thought it was Charlotte's hallucination but in reality it was Mason." He sighed.

"He texted me the next day saying that he wanted me to meet him at my dance studio. He even sent one of the photograph to me. I got scared and I didn't even knew who it was since it was a unknown number. When I met him, he threatened me that he would upload the pictures everywhere if I don't break up with Charlotte. He said if I don't agree then he would upload them and then I would go to jail and Charlotte would be shamed for life. I was afraid. Not for myself but for Charlotte. He said he regrets cheating on her and he wants her back because she is his and he loves her. He even called her a whore. Who calls whore to the person they love? No one right. And when she said that she won't be dating Mason ever again and I sang that song for her, Mason thought I told her everything and warned me not to say anything if I know what's better." He said and I sighed.

"Fuck, I knew something was wrong with the day. Where was he for one year? He didn't regret it when he cheated." I said.

"That means Mason sent that note to Charlotte." I mumbled to myself but Justin heard me. "What note?" He asked confused. I looked up at him and took a deep breath.

"Few days before your birthday, Charlotte recieved a note in her locker. The note had written "I know about your little secret Q-Tip" with a winky face. We couldn't even match the handwriting because it was typewritten." I said. "Why didn't you tell me about it?" He asked running his hands through his hair angrily.

"You won't be able to do anything, Justin. And Charlotte grew really scared and worried. She doesn't deserve that. Neither do you. Your birthdays were close so I said I'll find out about the note and she can tell you after the birthdays were over. But then that the photograph thing happened." I said and he cursed under his breath.

"No wonder that bitch wanted to apologize to Charlotte and then invite himself to her birthday party so he could find some solid evidence. I still don't know how he got suspected about you guys." I said.

"I think he has some issues with him. Like mental issues." I rolled my eyes.

"What are we going to do now?" Justin asked. I glared at him before looking down at my hand. What could we do now? I cannot just let Mason ruin my best friend's life, now can I?

Suddenly a idea popped in my mind and I smirked.

"I have got a plan. Do as I say and don't tell anyone about it. Mason will get his karma now." I smirked at Justin.
