Leaving so soon? Derek Hough cuts a lonely figure at Heathrow after his romantic dash to see Cheryl... but did she give him the cold shoulder?

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Sad departure: Derek Hough looks subdued as he flies out of Heathrow today


Last week as he jetted excitedly into London, Derek Hough tweeted: 'Surprises are always fun.'

But the dancer's romantic plans to surprise Cheryl Cole may not have been as well received as he'd hoped, as he arrived at Heathrow airport today ready to fly home after just five days.

Derek cut a lonely figure as he strolled through the terminal, lugging two suitcases that certainly gave the impression he had packed for a much longer visit.

In contrast to his excited grin as he arrived at the X Factor judge's north London home on Thursday, Derek looked decidedly subdued as he checked in his luggage for the flight back to Los Angeles.

He dressed comfortably for the long-haul flight in a blue T-shirt, jeans and trainers and looked distracted as he waited for his boarding pass.

Derek and Cheryl, 27, were not seen out together at all during his short trip.
He emerged twice without her, looking glum as he headed to a friend's house over the weekend, and then to pick up some groceries with Cheryl's brother Garry.

Derek flew into London on Thursday and hopped into a cab to Cheryl's house.

It had been over a month since the pair saw each other when he arrived. They spent New Year's together in South Africa before Cheryl returned to the UK.

Two weeks later she is rumoured to have held a secret meeting with ex-husband Ashley Cole in their former marital home.

Around the same time Derek is understood to have splashed out on a $650,000 West Hollywood love nest in anticipation of Cheryl's arrival in LA.

Her American X Factor dreams were in doubt for much of last month when it was rumoured that Fox producers of the program were concerned the Parachute singer's popularity wouldn't translate for American audiences.

But, while an official statement has yet to be made, she is understood to have signed a £10 million deal with the network.

Although boss Simon Cowell was keen to take Cheryl to the States for the show, producers over there had been concerned that not only was she not famous enough in the US, but some viewers might struggle to understand her Newcastle accent.
