Those Little Things

Chapter 12

The music stopped as the boys walked out, I ran over to my little Irish boy and have him a huge hug with my face buried in his chest. His arms wrapped around me as he kissed my forehead. I looked up into those beautiful blue eyes and smiled.

Suddenly my phone started ringing, ruining the moment.

"Sorry," I said walking out of the room and sliding my phone out of my pocket.

It was my mom. I answered it and began hearing yelling in my ear.

"Mom stop yelling I can't hear you!"

"Taylor Greenwood you were supposed to come home three days ago! Where have you been?!" my mom yelled with a concerned tone.

I paused realizing I did have to go home. I had to leave London and these boys. I didn't want to leave, this was my new home.

"Mom can't I just sta-"

"Taylor! You are coming home today whether you like it or not! I'm calling your dad to help you pack. See you soon." then the phone started buzzing.

My face went pale as Niall and Louis walked through the door. They looked at me confused as I slipped my phone back in my pocket.

"Is something wrong love?" Louis asked walked over and placing his arm around my shoulders.

I looked at Niall with tears in my eyes and he suddenly went pale too.

"What happened?...who was on the phone?!" Niall yelled.

Zayn, Harry, and Liam walked through the door once they heard Niall yell. They came over and looked at us with all confused faces.

"What?" Harry asked.

They all looked at me.

"It was my mom..."

"And?!" Liam asked.

I paused staring at each of their eyes, but especially Niall's. Those big blue eyes filling with tears as each second past. A tear streamed down his face and that's when I knew I had to tell them.

"What's going on?..."Niall asked again as another tear fell.

"I have to go home..."

"Well why didn't you say so love! We'll drive you there its not that far," Louis exclaimed walking to the entrance door.

"I don't live in the hotel..."

Louis paused in his footsteps and turned around with a confused look on his face. He walked back standing next to Niall. Then he leaned in and narrowed his eyes.

"Where do you live then?" Louis asked leaning away.

I paused.

"C..a..." I mumbled my words not wanting them to know.

"What was that?" Zayn asked.

"Ca..l.." I mumbled again.

"This isn't funny anymore Taylor," Niall said wiping another tear.

I shut my eyes tightly and yelled," California!"

There was a pause and I slowly opened one eye and saw their blank faces. I opened my eyes.

"Wait...in America?..."Niall asked.

"Yes in America..."

"For how long?" Harry asked as his smile slipped away.

That was the sad part. I barely visited my dad because he was so busy. That's why I stood with my mom longer.

"Maybe six, five, seven months?..."

"Seven months?!" they all yelled.

"Yes..."

Niall's head dropped as well as Louis'. We walked outside and boarded the car. There was a long silence until we reached my hotel. We all stood in there for a minute in the silence. I broke the silence opening the door.

"I'll help you pack..." Niall said exiting the car.

I loaded my suitcases onto the top of my chair and sat at a window seat. At least the plane wasn't crowded I thought. Then I looked out the window. The boys were standing there by the airport window in perfect view. My eyes focused on Niall.

"We are off in three...two..."

Just as the plane left the ground, I saw Niall break down on his knees, crying. That's when I broke down too...
