Lashton- Detached Sickness (Part 2)

Second part of the request from DedicatedFanGirl24 .

Reminder of request: I got a request one where Luke and Ash are so stressed that they need to do everything together and go everywhere together including the bathroom and they also are living together or if they are apart they get stomach flu  like throwing up and the other way, fever ect they get colds ect and just general panic attacks are so emotional.  The example of where this happens is on their break where Luke and Mike go to Mexico and Ash and Cal go to Hawaii for a week that was already planned but even regardless of Lashton being sick they try to experience one fun thing to make the trip kind of worth it.  This will probably be two parts.

Here's part 2. We're gonna follow Cashton and their trip to Hawaii this time.

------

Once Calum and Ashton drop Muke off at the airport they head back to their LA house. Ashton is kind of tense the whole time and Calum knows it is because he is already starting to miss Luke. When they get back to the house Ashton immediately gets out of the car and unlocks the front door, rushing inside. Calum leaves him be, if he pressured Ashton it would probably end in disaster. Instead he heads up to his room to double check he has everything before heading to bed for a little nap.

Ashton however, doesn't find this so smooth. Instead once he has ran into he house and up to his room he jumps on the bed and squishes his head between two pillows in an attempt to mask his cries from his band mate. Tears fall down his face while he wails and screams into his unlucky blue pillow. A week away from Luke felt like an eternity, he didn't know how he could cope. He had became so close to the boy in the last couple of months that it felt impossible to leave him for very long.

After a good hour of crying to himself, Ashton decided that he needed to man up. He looks over at the clock and sees that he still has 3 hours until he and Calum needed to leave for the airport. He grabs his phone out and puts his earphones in before clicking on YouTube and going to his favourite channel LashtonLover98. (Not real guys, I know, just let it be used for da story). He clicks on his favourite video of theirs, one he had watched a thousand times over, Lashton's Ever-lasting Love.

He watches as the many photos of him and Luke come and go on the screen, from them laughing at each other's terrible jokes to them comforting each other when they were sad. The video made him happy and he was disappointed when it ended 5 minutes later. He watched it two more times, just to keep his feels up before turning off his phone and putting his head down on the pillow and drifting off to a land where everything was perfect.

2 and a half hours later he is woken up by Calum shaking his shoulders. He nudges him off before rolling over onto his other side, facing away from Calum. He hears Calum sigh before he feels him sit down on the side of the bed. Ashton is kinda scared at what Calum is about to do, despite knowing that Calum wouldn't do anything too mean to him. A seconds later he feels fingers poking at him dimples and he smiles.

'I knew you were awake!' Calum says triumphantly. Ashton shakes his head and opens his eyes to look at Calum. 'Hello sleepy head. We need to get going. I've already put your stuff in the car.'

'Thanks. But don't ever call me sleepy head again, only Luke can do that.' Ashton says. Tears threaten to spill out of his eyes at the thought of Luke and Ashton covers his eyes, determined not to let Calum see, but it's too late.

'Hey, Ash. Don't cry. It's only a week. It'll be over before you know it.' Calum says. Ashton nods and Calum helps him out of bed. The rest of the day is a bit of a blur and soon Ashton is sitting on a new bed in Hawaii, in a hotel. It's 7 at night, Hawaii time. (OK, I've got to share this with y'all. I wrote 'It's not 7pm Hawaii time and then published it, but no one saw it before I re-read it so we are all goo now.) Ashton had slept for most of the plane ride so he wasn't too tired and the two decided to get some food. They head down to the lobby and Calum spots a Chinese place down the street from the hotel. Calum ends up getting a buffet plate, Ashton copying him.

They sit down and enjoy their meal, both of them going up for seconds, thirds in Calum's case. Once they are done it is 9pm and they decide it is about time to head back to the hotel and get some rest. Well, in theory. The two of them actually end up playing a couple of round of FIFA, quietly as not to disturb the other people in the hotel. Eventually, past midnight, they actually get to bed. Calum falls to sleep pretty quickly but Ashton can't manage to drift off into dreamland.

He is awake all night, going in circles. One minute he is thinking of how lucky he is to be where he is, the next he is thinking about happy memories with Luke. Then he is crying about how he misses Luke before having a little panic attack about what could have happened to Luke. He then calms himself down before repeating the process over and over again, for the whole 5 hours that Calum is asleep. On approximately his seventeenth panic attack he falls off his bed, landing with a loud thunk.

This wakes Calum up and the raven-haired boy is immediately worried about what made the thunk. He looks over at Ashton's bed and sees he is not there. This worries him and he sits up straight, turning his bedside light on. He then looks around the room and sees a wisp of blonde curls  over the other side of Ashton's bed, swaying back and forth. Calum gets out of bed, only in his boxers, and walks over to the other side of Ashton's bed. What he sees breaks his heart. Ashton is rocking back and forth in the foetal position, tears streaming down his face as he mumbles to himself worriedly.

Calum is immediately at Ashton's side, bringing him into an embrace which Ashton softens into after a few seconds. Calum doesn't move and eventually he hears Ashton's breathing level out, signalling that he has fallen asleep. Calum picks Ashton up and lays him back on his bed, tucking him under the covers. Once he is finished he goes back to his bed, deciding he will tell Michael in the morning. But it seems his phone has other ideas.

Calum's phone lights up and plays his notification sound. Calum groans, he had been almost back asleep. He switches the bedside light on once again and picks his phone up. He unlocks it and clicks on messages. It's a text from Michael.

Mikey :D - Maybe this wasn't such a good idea.

Calum texts back just about straight away.

Cal-Pal - Yeah.

Hey Guys,

How are we? I'm good, thanks for asking. Third chapter in three days. I'm on a roll. Despite not having a laptop to write with, my phone and iPad are doing a fantastic job. A third part to this one will be coming after the next two requested ones and before the first of my originals. I've also decided that I am going to alternate between one of my originals and a chapter of Stupid Stomach (The one where stomach fever spreads through the band). The schedule currently looks like this:

17 parts in total queued up. Now, I am going to request that I do not get any more requests until I've finished Stupid Stomach 1. Only the first one. But you can request and I will make them, just not very soon. You may comment and vote no problem, just minimise the requests unless you are bursting for a response. Also, feel free to suggest any schedule changes, I would be glad to hear back from you.

Now, I'd better finish that HASS assignment due 22.5% of the year. Yeah, I should.

Bye for now,

Alexis :D
