7:56 am

"Forget me! How's Michael?" Ashton was panicking and he wouldn't listen to the doctor.

"Mr.Irwin if we tell you how he is, will you calm down?" The doctor sighed.

"Yes!" Ashton crossed his arms and glared at him.

"Alright nurses go check on Michael Clifford." The doctor ordered.

"Sir,he's in surgery right now." The nurse read off her clipboard.

The doctor looked over at Ashton waiting for him to throw another tantrum but instead Ashton burst into tears.

"It's all my fault! I wasn't there for him!" Ashton cried into his pillow.

The doctor patted Ashton's back.

"Now Mr.Irwin I need you to take a deep breath." he started.

"Shut up and leave my room." Ashton ordered.

"If you need anything just call the nurses with the button." The doctor pointed at the remote.

Ashton ignored him and continued to cry.

"It's all my fault." Ashton whispered to himself.

6 hours later...

"I'm in a hospital again?" Michael looked around the small room. "where's Rosalie..." He blinked a few times before he realized that she died hours ago, in a fire.

"The only person that was there for me...just disappeared and I wasn't there." Michael held in the tears.His body felt numb and his head was spinning.

"Of course no one will see me." Michael started. "Rosalie was the only person that cared."

"Mr.Clifford you're awake." A nurse came in. "how are you feeling?"

"I'm fine, just feeling a bit dizzy." Michael forced a little smile.

"You lost a lot of blood during the surgery you had." The nurse smiled back. "I'm going to bring something for you to eat.Just keep warm." She left the room.

Michael closed his eyes and waited.Ashton popped in his head.He was carrying Michael through flames and sweating a lot,the strong smoke smell was still tingling in his nose.

"Ashton saved me?" Michael opened his eyes and this time he smiled for real. "thank you."

I love you. Ashton's words repeated in Michael's head.

Michael looked around the room.Ashton loves me?Ashton Irwin loves me?Michael smiled wider.I don't even know what to say about that.I don't really feel the same though but it takes time right?I mean Ashton is so beautiful and perfect, somehow I don't have that full feeling yet.

-

"Well Ashton you're doing fine." The doctor had Ashton to sit up on his bed. "You're breathing and heart rate is fine.Also you weren't so injured and I do not know why you're 'crazy in the head' since you just saved someone." The doctor did some air quotation marks.

Ashton had his head down.

"I have a question." The doctor quietly said.

Ashton looked up and waited for the question.

"How did you manage to get out of the Lunatic Hospital?" he whispered.

"I don't know." Ashton bit his lip. "I just passed out and woke up in that burning hospital."

The doctor just nodded.

"So do you want to get out of that Asylum?" He asked.

Ashton's eyes widen and nodded.

"alright." The doctor looked around. "don't tell anybody but I'm writing a note saying that you no longer have to go to that place.Everything is perfectly fine now.How does that sound?"

Ashton smiled and hugged him.That was strange because Ashton never hugged people that much.

"Thank you so much!" The smile fell when he realized that he had no where to stay.Back in Australia they always had a home for the homeless.Ashton doesn't really know if California does the same.

"So you're leaving in ten days." The doctor pulled away from the hug and grabbed his clipboard. "I'll be checking on you then." He left the room.

Ashton stood up and walked in the bathroom.He was glad there was a shower in there but the problem was that there was only one cheap shampoo bottle.He hoped that would last for ten days.Ashton quickly showered because he didn't want to miss his lunch.

He was dressed in a newly fresh gown and boxer shorts.Ashton hopped onto his sorta comfortable bed.He sat there and looked at the television.Should he turn it on or?Ashton 'accidentally' turned it on and changed the channel to Nickelodeon.He watched Spongebob and didn't notice the nurse set his turkey sandwich and water next to him.

"Yum!" Ashton took a bite and his face twisted in disgust. "this is awful." He spit the sandwich back out in a napkin.

"Ashton you have to eat that." The nurse crossed her arms.

"This is disgusting." Ashton studied his good looking sandwich. "I'm not eating this even though it looks so good."

She sighed.

"I'll give you my lunch." The nurse finally said.

"What's your lunch?" Ashton asked setting his food down.

"Tuna sandwich." She shrugged.

"That sounds good. Thanks... um." He trailed off.

"Sarah." She smiled.

"Thanks Sarah but what are you having?" He asked.

"I'll just go to Subway or In-N-Out." Sarah slowly walked out of the room. "I will be right back."

Ashton nodded and took a drink from his cup of water.

"What a nice lady." He mumbled.
