the rest of ashtons hospital stay wasnt bad. calum stayed out of his headspace, and took care of ashton. it went smoothly - luke and michael were both fairly surprised at calum being able to stay big.
so was ashton but he was also proud.
ashton was proud and excited to go home, sleep in his own bed, and...well, to be in quiet and not hooked up to wires and listening to beeping twenty four seven.
"alright, i have your clothes," calum says, walking back into ashtons hospital room, "get changed, and then i'll help you into your wheelchair."
"thanks, baby," ashton says, taking the clothes from calums hands. calum helps ashton move so he's sitting on the edge of the bed, and then lets ashton change. he knew, if he needed help, he would ask. calum also knew to not push it - ashton was so independent, and even though he had a heart attack he would still want to do things himself.
"the doctor also gave me a paper of a new diet you should follow," calum says, "i told him that your diet wasnt bad, but still. just to be careful we'll both follow this diet."
"i hate diets."
"he also said to stay away from stress," calum says softly, "so...that means staying away from little me. i won't be able to go in headspace."
"what are you talking about?" ashton asks, putting his shirt on, "you in your little space does not stress me out. when you're a little brat and you don't listen to me, that's when you piss me off."
calum giggles a bit, "i only piss you off when i want spanked"
"you could just ask for a spanking like a normal human being."
"do normal people just ask to be spanked when they want to be spanked?"
"i don't know but we should start," ashton says, smiling at calum.
"come on, baby," calum says, "mikey and lukey should be here soon, and we still gotta get your medications."
ashton sighs, "im so ready to go home."
"me too, babe. me too."

michael cat whistles as he watches calum wheel ashton out of the hospital.
"look at you sexy studs," michael yells out, making luke and calum laugh.
"you gonna be able to drive with all this sexiness in the car?" ashton asks once he's closer to michael.
"mmm...probably. you aren't too sexy, especially with that hospital bracelet on your wrist."
"screw off," ashton says, standing up on his own. luke opens the passenger door, and holds it open as ashton steps into the car. calum runs the wheelchair back, and then climbs in the back next to luke. michael starts to drive, and they drive for a bit before ashton cheers happily.
"home!" ashton cheers, "ahh, im so ready to be home, in my own bed, in my own bathroom and my own kitchen."
"and with calum and his ass?"
"i mean, yeah."
calum laughs, "you can't have this ass for a couple weeks, babe."
"i can have that ass whenever i want, calum thomas. and you know that."
"ooooooo," michael says, "you're in trouble!"
"shut up," calum whines, turning to luke, "you're my only friend now."
"no," luke says, shaking his head, "mikey is my only friend."
"he's right, calum."
"its okay, calum," ashton says, reaching back, "i still love you."
"i love you too."
"here we are!" michael says, pulling into the driveway. ashton has such a big smile on his face as he turns back to look at calum.
"callie, we're home!"
"we are home, love."
"alright, come on love birds," michael says, parking the car. they all get out of the car, and unload it (not letting ashton do much since he had to rest).
they get ashton and calum all settled into their home, and then got themselves situated in the living room since they didn't have an extra guest room (they decided to stay with ashton and calum a couple days a week, just to make sure they were both doing okay).
