Once Apon a Time...a Liam Payne fanfic **ON HOLD**

Why can't you stay?

-------Nicolette's P.O.V.------

"I know, I will!" I yelled back, frutrated and sad that I had loads of laundry, and Liam was leaving today. I threw my clothes onto our bed and went back downstairs.

"Ready to...leave?" Liam asked, hesitating the 'leave' part. We both knew he didn't want to leave, but it was my choice to be with him, and the band. Like I said, it was more than marrying Liam, it was marrying the band, his family and his friends. We were there for eachother, and one tour won't break that.

"I'll never be ready, but I know it has to be done." I answered quietly while hugging him. He kissed my forehead and walked towards the garage with me, hand-in-hand. The luggage was already packed, so I double checked and got into the passenger's seat. Liam had told me he wanted to drive, so I let him. We started to accelerate and I looked over at him.

Why do you have to go?

Then, out of nowhere, a tear streamed down my face. I lifted it from my cheek and looked away so Liam couldn't see. He never liked seeing me cry, and so, I never did. Or atleast I tried not to cry. His driving was smooth and a little faster than a normal driver.

"What are your plans tomorrow?" He asked, still holding my hand tightly.

"Nothing at all, you guys?"

"Meeting with our producers and designers for new shirts and what-not," He replied.

"That's awesome, Li. Are the rest of the boys already there?"

"On their way, me and Niall wanted a later flight, due to the date of our trip." Liam explained, making eye contact occasionally. I looked into his brown eyes, and all I wanted was to see them when I woke up the next morning. But, I wouldn't, I wouldn't for atleast three months. I shuddered to put the future where it should be. I leaned my head agianst Liam's shoulder and listened to his faint heart beat.

"Oh..." I got out after a minute or two, after zoning out about what's going to happen.

"I'll be here in three months, that's all." He assured while squeezing my hand lightly. I pressed my lips to his cheek and smiled when I pulled away.

"It'll be a long three months, Li," I responded quietly.

I spotted the airport and squeezed my eyes shut when we got closer. I didn't want this to happen, I didn't. Another tear seemed to manage its' way to my face. I brushed them away and held onto his hand tighter.

If this is only good-bye, then what is tomorrow and the next going to be like?

I asked myself, searching for an alternative. His voice was muffled and I could barely see with the tears building in my eyes. I blinked and they scattered across my face. I burried my head into my hands and looked up at him. He looked like he had seen a ghost, I wiped away the tears and looked at Liam with sadness.

"I'm sorry, I just- I just-," I stuttered with tears. He brushed them away and I realized we were pulled over.

"Hey, hey, it's okay. I'm here. Don't worry, love, I'll be here as soon as I possibly can," He whispered into my ear while holding me close to him. I smelled the familiar scent of his warmth. I looked up and kissed him tenderly.

"Promise?" I choked out between sobs.

"Of course, nothing will change it,"

"I'm going to really miss you,"

"I'll miss you too, Nicolette. Just remember, I'm here for you, and we can skype, call, text, and everything. I'll be here as much as I can." Liam explained while brushing my hair over and looking into my eyes.
