Our lips pressed together. I felt Liam smiling. I started smiling too.
”You have the most gorgeous smile” he said. I giggled.
”You are the most amazing guy ever” I said. Liam grabbed me and hugged me tight.
”I’m going to miss you tomorrow, a part of me doesn’t even want to leave” he said.
”But honey, it’s your world tour! I’m going to miss you, but I’m even more proud of you”
Liam smiled. ”How did I get this lucky? How did I get you?”
The next morning Liam was finishing packing the last things and I made him breakfast. I was on the edge of tears, but I decided to keep them in until Liam was gone.
We sat on the table and I started eating so I wouldn’t cry.
After fifteen minutes it was time for Liam to go. He opened the front door and kissed me. I felt my eyes were tearing up and after a few moments I was sobbing.
”It’s okay, darling, we will see each other again in a month” Liam said holding me against his chest. I couldn’t stop crying.
”I know… I just miss you so much already”. The taxi came to get him to the airport. He kissed me on my forehead and walked to the taxi, waving at the same time.
”Be safe!” I said as I was waving.
The time passed by so slowly without Liam. I watched TV, but nothing really interesting was on. I tried reading a book, but all I could think of was Liam and how much I missed him. I made myself dinner. I showered. I fell asleep after three hours of trying.
In the middle of the night my phone rang.
”Who is this?” I asked.
”Niall…”. I got up.
”What’s wrong?”
”We were in a car accident… I’m so sorry…” I heard him saying and we both started crying.
”Please, Niall, please, tell me Liam’s okay” I begged him, even though I knew Liam was not okay.
”Liam passed away… He, he tried to save us…” Niall said with his voice full of pain. I fell on the floor. I started screaming and crying.
”Are you still there?” Niall asked. ”We are taking the next flight home and we are coming to see you.”
”Thank you.” I said and hung up. I couldn’t believe it. Liam was… gone? I grabbed a picture of us from the bedside table. It was taken at the zoo.
I walked to the closet and smelled Liam’s clothes. I needed Liam. I missed him. I loved him more than I loved myself.
I walked to the bathroom and let the bathtub fill up. I took my clothes off and went in. I was completely under water as I felt myself gliding away from this world.
I saw Liam and everything was alright again.
