I wake up with this pain, throbbing through my back. I sit up slowly and groan a little as the pain shoots up to my neck. I look over to see Austin isn't there. I sigh and sit there for a few minutes before getting up slowly and going downstairs.
"Alan, you're finally awake." Austin says softly.
I smile through the pain, the pain that's now moved into my head. It's literally pulsing in my temple right now, I walk over to the couch and sit down next to Austin.
"You look tired, why don't you go back to bed?" He asks.
"No, I'm fine." I lie.
The pain gets worse and I don't think I can handle it anymore. I put my hands to my ears and I try to relax. I squeeze my eyes shut and I soon start to wince in pain.
"Woah, Alan. Are you okay baby?" Austin moves closer to my side and tries to remove my hands from my face.
I scream out as the pain starts to throb more, pulse more and hurt more. I open my eyes and everything is spinning, fuck what's happening?
"Alan, Alan stop. Tell me what's wrong?" Austin begs.
"My head is throbbing." I mumble through clenched teeth.
"That badly?" He looks at me worriedly and I nod.
Austin gets up quickly and disappears. I tilt my head back but keep my eyes shut, I've never experienced this before. Austin soon returns and taps my shoulder. I open my eyes and I feel vomit rise to my throat, I get up and run to the kitchen where I soon hunch over the sink and throw up endlessly.
I feel him rubbing my back as I throw up once more. I turn on the water and rinse my mouth before cleaning the sink. After I'm done, Austin hands me two pain killers and a glass of water. I put them in my mouth and take a gulp of water to wash them down. The throbbing returns and I groan.
"Should we go to the hospital?" He asks worriedly.
"No, I'll be fine." I say quietly.
He wraps his arms around me and I lay my head on his chest. If this is a hangover, it's one of my worsts ever. I don't wish this pain upon anyone. I'm surprised I didn't faint.
"Maybe you should go back to bed for a little?" Austin stares into my eyes before leaning down to kiss my forehead.
I nod my head because I honestly couldn't deal with the pain anymore. This was a lesson learned and now I'll know not to drink so much next time. I get out of Austin's arms and head upstairs to our bedroom. I hope a nap will help me.
Austin's P.O.V:
I was worried about Alan and it hurt me to see him in pain like that but I just didn't know what to do. I'm glad he listened and went to bed for a little but will it be better when he wakes up? Will he wake up?
Thousands of negative things run through my head and I just don't know what to do with myself. I get up and quickly make my way upstairs to our bedroom. I open the door quietly and I stand in the doorway. I watch as Alan's chest falls and lifts with every breath and I smile a little. I sigh with relief before quietly closing the door and going back downstairs.
He's had many hangovers in the past but never this bad, I don't even know if this pain he's having is the cause of drinking or not. I frown as I start to think of all the possibilities it could be but I quickly stop when I hear something behind me. I turn around and see Alan smiling at me, was I dreaming? Just a little bit ago he was nearly crying in pain and now here he stands, smiling as if nothing happened.
"I feel better." He chuckles and comes and sits beside me.
"That's good." I smile and watch his every move, just to make sure.
He stares at me intently, like he was watching my every move too. I watch as his eyes dart over to Sophie as she walks by but then quickly returns to looking at me. I look deep into his eyes and I swear I can see that he's still in pain but I just don't want to assume and start an argument.
As if he read my mind he laughs before saying, "Austin, I'm fine. Stop worrying, sleep was all that I needed. Plus those two pain killers helped as well. Thanks baby."
He leans closer and pecks my lips before laying his head on my lap. I sigh in defeat and smirk a little, I loved and cared for him so much and it just worries me to see him in pain like that. I place my hand gently on his head and I start running my fingers through his hair. He relaxes a little more and calls over Sophie who runs over and jumps onto the couch and to his side.
Alan's P.O.V:
I knew Austin could see past my lie, my eyes were written with pain but I pushed that past me and played a little act. I didn't want him to worry about me, I was fine, I guess..
Austin's fingers running through my hair calms me down a bit. I relax and pet Sophie behind her ears gently, her purrs filling the quiet room. My head starts to calm down and the pounding dies down as well. I sigh in relief and close my eyes for a second.
"How's he doing?" I hear somebody ask.
I keep my eyes closed and wait for Austin to answer this person that's suddenly come into the house.
"He says he feels better but I can see in his eyes that he's still in pain." He sighs and continues to run his fingers in my hair.
I open my eyes slowly and I look over to see Shayley Bourget, what was he doing here? Shayley looks at me and studies my face, I sit up and Sophie jumps down from the couch.
"Hey baby, I texted Shayley earlier and asked him to come over." Austin says with a smile.
"Hi man, haven't seen you in so long." Shayley chuckles a little and sits on the recliner beside Austin.
"Hi." I smile a little and sit back.
I get lost deep in my thoughts and I start to wonder that maybe this whole pain in my head is just stress related or maybe it's a sickness or something. Will I be okay by tomorrow? Will this whole drama with Tino end anytime soon? I don't want to end up losing everyone in this band including Austin, because of something stupid. I guess the best way to go is to accept Tino and Maddie and to be happy for them.
"Alan!" Austin shouts a little breaking me out of my thoughts.
"What? Sorry I was daydreaming." I lie.
Austin laughs and so does Shayley. To be honest I've missed Shay, but I'm going to admit, I'm extremely jealous of him and how close Austin and him are. Shayley always meant so much to us but because of the whole 'the band will never go anywhere without Shayley' thing we had to be a little distant with him and I hope he understands why.
"Are you okay?" Shay asks.
"Yeah I'm fine." I fake a smile and look away before Austin can give me his questioning looks.
"Well, we have some news, it's bad news and I'm sorry if this hurts you but Shayley and I have been seeing each other for the past two months. I think I'm in love with him." Austin says with a smile.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I gasp and sit up quickly, my breaths short and loud. My chest aching with every breath of air I take. I look around and see that I'm still laying on the couch, I sigh with relief and start to calm down, it was all just a dream. Shayley being here was just a dream too.
Austin is no longer here though, I look at the coffee table and see a note. I quickly read it and smile. It was a note from Austin saying that he went to buy some food for us and Sophie. I lay back down and laugh a little, that was one crazy dream.
[A/N] sorry this is short and sorry it took me so long to update! I've been having writers block lately so please forgive me!!
