You wake up with a horrible pain in your head. What the hell? You reach over to try and Ashton for comfort, but remember that he went to the studio today. You groan and rub your temples. Why today? You sit up, careful not to fall over. As soon as your feet hit the ground, you feel your head shaking. You stumble down the stairs as if you were drunk, grabbing on to any random thing to keep yourself from falling over. You head starts to throb and you close your eyes for a minute. But since you are such a clutz, you try to put you foot down on the next stair and slip. When your ass hits the bottom step, you don't know whether to laugh at yourself or cry at the pain. You don't do either. You get off the floor, still holding your head. You stumble to the kitchen and reach up to the medicine cabinet. You feel around but you can't see anything through the pain. "What the hell!" You finally give up and sit on the ground and hold your head. You probably look like a psychopath, just rocking back and forth holding your head. Suddenly, you hear the front door open but you don't bother to look up. "Hey babe? I left my papers in the kitchen. Could you-" Ashton stops as he looks at you. "Babe? Are you okay?" You feel his hands wrap around you. "My head." You whimper. Ashton kisses your forehead and puts his arms under your legs. He carries you bridal style to the bed and lays you down carefully. You hear him pull his phone out of his pocket. "Ashton, don't. Just go back to the studio. I'm fine." You try to reach for his hand but he scoots back so you can't reach him. You groan. "Yeah. This is Ashton. I'm gonna need to take the day off. Tell the guys I'm sorry and I'll work extra tomorrow. Okay. Bye." He hangs up and rubs your forehead. "I'm gonna go get some soup and some medicine." Ashton tells you. "No. Don't go." Ashton smiles at you. "Fine." Ash crawls over you and lays down. As he tries to put his arms around you, you stop him. "What?" Ash asks. "Take your shirt off." You whisper. Ashton laughs at you. "Alright." He pulls his shirt off and throws it to the other side of you. You turn around and nuzzle your nose into his neck, breathing in his cologne. Ash pulls you closer and rubs the back of your head. "Just go to sleep, baby." Ashton whispers. You lift your head to kiss his cheek , but he kisses your lips. You smile at him, even though you can't see him, and lay your head back down. You fall asleep as Ashton hums random songs to you and giggles softly every so often when you breathe on his neck in a door that tickles.
