Enchilada or Appendicitis ~ Ashton

Context: Ashton had appendicitis 2014 in during a promo tour.

"Ashton, are you getting up today or what?" Calum asked as he pulled back the curtain on Ashton's bunk.

The boy was laying on his side with his face in the pillow, the covers off his skin and only in his underwear. Ashton had been sweating buckets all night and he felt an odd sensation in his gut like he was coming down with something.

"Or what." Ashton replied to be smart as he looked up at his friend.

"Well we have to start packing for England today, we have the BBC Radio One Teen awards, remember?" Michael said as he swung his legs over the side of his bunk, clearly just waking up too.

"Yeah yeah, I remember. I'll get up." Ashton groaned as he started sitting up but feeling a strong pain in his abdomen.

"Oh you cunt!" He mumbled through gritted teeth.

"Me?" Luke asked as he innocently walked passed.

"No, not you. I'm not feeling so hot." Ashton reiterated as he didn't need Luke to start crying either.

"What's wrong, Ash?" Calum asked slightly worried, Ashton isn't one for admitting when he's sick, he normally powers through with no complaints.

"I think it was something I ate?" Ashton said as he just cradled his belly and rolled onto his back.

"To be fair, that Mexican food last night wasn't the best." Calum replied.

"Yeah, Calum's been farting all night, Luke had explosive diarrhoea this morning..." Michael started listing.

"That is incorrect!" Luke said all defensive.

"You did say my enchilada looked like something out of a sewer." Ashton thought back to last night, the food was edible but perhaps it wasn't as good as it tasted.

"How about you just rest today? We don't need you feeling worse before we travel." Calum suggested, Ashton nodded as allowed himself to get comfortable on his bed again.

"Do you want any ginger ale or anything?" Luke asked their fallen brother, and ginger ale normally can help cure an upset stomach.

"No thanks, Luke. I'll just try to sleep this off." Ashton replied as she shook his head, he wasn't really in the mood to socialise, he just wanted sleep.

"Ok, just let us know if you need anything at all, Mate." Michael said as he jumped off his bunk to head to the lounge for breakfast.

Ashton could feel the pain around his bellybutton that was constantly dull but it felt worse to sit up, it would get sharper, and he was starting to feel nauseous. His stomach hurt and felt all bloated which just made it feel more tender. He closed his eyes and just tried his hardest to fall asleep again.

Luke's Pov:

I ate my cheerios really quietly so I didn't wake up Ashton, I felt really bad that he was feeling sick from the Mexican Food and we all were fine. I mean we were all a little gassy from the black beans and cheese but that's kinda normal. But Ashton never gets sick and has a pretty strong stomach with a high tolerance for disgusting things.

"I left a bad review on the Mexican place." Michael said as he grinned a malicious grin, typing away on his phone.

"Is that necessary, for a stomachache?" Calum said as he raised an eyebrow.

"I quote Calum T. Hood 'That enchilada looks like something out of a sewer!' need I say more? Don't eat here." Michael read aloud to everyone.

"Fucking hell, Mike! Why did you have to use my name?" Calum said as he slapped the cap off Michael's head.
