I was released from the hosipital a week later, Austin opening the doors for me.
When we got to the car, he smiled and said, "I'm glad you're okay."
"Me too love. I'm sorry that I just.. Yeah, I'm sorry that I put you through this." he looked like he hadn't slept in months.
"Baby shh." he hugged me, careful not to squeeze too hard.
"Let's go home and fall asleep in each other's arms." I said, actually missing that more than anything.
"Yes baby." he started the car and we pulled away.
His hand rested on my thigh.

"C'mon, we can watch a movie." Austin said, laying on the bed.
I sat next to him, and he pulled me down. "I missed you." his lips met mine in a matter of seconds and his hand brushed my thigh.
"I missed you too." I replied when he broke the kiss.
"Not as much as I missed you. You know.. I almost lost you.. and that was enough to make me want to keep you closer. If you want to go out, someone is going with you."
"Baby I'm fine."
"No. You aren't." he kissed me passionately and I knew he meant what he said.
"Fine. Can we go out? To just walk?" I asked, not caring that I was hurt.
"Baeley, you can't walk." he laughed softly.
"Well, I want to do something."
"I'll take you for ice cream." he offered.
Then something hit me. "Austin.."
He looked at me.
"What about.. what about all your shows?"
"We pushed them back until next month."
"Baby no.." I looked away.
"Stop, baby girl. It's ok. Nothing changed except the dates."
"But what about all the people-" his lips met mine shutting me up.
"Stop it. Seriously." he turned his snapback around and I kissed his cheek.
"Austin oh my god."
"What?" Austin asked.
"Babe our one year is in two months." I looked over at him.
He grinned. "Oh it is? I forgot."
I punched him. "Better not have."
