Christmas on detours [One Direction/Liam Payne]

1. Brooke

The ringtone of my mobile phone wakes me up. I look at the display and see Liam's number. I answer the phone sleepily .

"Good morning, Li." "Oh...did I wake you up, Hun?" Liam sounds like he's in a hurry."No...yes...but why are you calling me so early in the morning? Do you miss me sooo bad? I mean, we're gonna see each other in round about 7 hours." I chuckle. Even if I really love to hear his voice through the phone, I really can't wait to see Liam later today."Uhm...That's the point, love...." he begins. My happiness fades away immediately. Liam continues. "Our flight is cancelled. We are at the airport in Paris now, but we are stuck here 'cause there's a problem with the plane." My eyes begin to fill with tears. "But you'll arrive home for the plane in time, won't you?" I ask him hopefully. I've been looking forward to this day since Liam and I decided to spent Christmas Eve with my family in Germany. "I wish I could promise you that I will, but I guess that we are not gonna arrive in time." Liam sounds really sad.  I don't know what to say. A single tear streams down my cheek. "I'm so sorry, Brooke, but I guess you have to spend this evening without me. I will come to your parents' house as soon as possible, I promise you.", he tells me desperately. "You're not very good at making promises, you know, Liam?", I ask him. "Yes, Brooke, I know but...", Liam starts. "I'm really tired of always getting disappointed, Liam.", I try to hold back the tears but I just can't. "The plane is taking off at 3:30 pm. Be in time or we'll spent Christmas seperately." I hang up the phone and hide myself in the pillow. I know it is not Liam's fault that the plane cannot take off, but I was so happy to spend time with him after he has been on the road for seven months without coming home. I can count on the fingers of one hand how many times we saw each other in the past months. I really miss him. I do not just miss his fingertips or his warm and soft kisses on my skin, I miss the daily things we shared. I miss his harsh voice in the morning, I miss his smell, yes I actually miss the clothes he always left on the ground of our house and all his little mannerisms which really drive me crazy sometimes.I know that I need him, but I can't get over the fact that he's always letting me down.
