Tour was soon over, and me and Aston were back at home, back to our usual selves. Well, Aston was. I still had my cast, and I still hadn't told Aston about the baby. I just didn't know how to do it.. I couldn't let him experience the emotional pain I was feeling right now. It wasn't fair for me to do that to him. Today was the day I was having my cast removed though, so there was one positive thing going on in my life right now.
'Baby, are you ready?' Aston asked me, jogging down the stairs.
'Yeah' I sighed.
'What's wrong?' he asked, concerned.
'Nothing' I said, shaking my head slightly.
'This pregnancy thing is really giving you mood swings.. You should be happy! Your getting your cast off today, we're back together, your out of that stupid care home and we have a beautiful baby on the way' he grinned, leaning down to kiss my lips softly.
'Your right' I smiled, although I wasn't too sure about the last positive point he'd made.
'Come on then' he said, wheeling me out to the car.
Once we'd got to the hospital, we sat in a waiting room until I was called up.
'Chloe, how are you?' the doctor smiled as me and Aston headed into a small room with a bed and desk.
'I'm okay thanks, apart from the leg of course' I chuckled lightly.
'Good, good. So, how have you been managing with this cast then?' he asked me.
'Oh, it's been a nightmare. I had to go into some care home whilst Aston was away' I sighed, rolling my eyes.
'Well, you won't have to struggle after today. Would you like to make your way over to the bed?' he asked, walking towards the bed. Instead of wheeling me over to the bed first, Aston decided to pick me up and bridal carry me across the room to the bed. He placed me down gently, before standing at the end of the bed.
'Now, this won't hurt, but it might tickle a little bit' the doctor assured me, before taking a tool from the table next to the bed and turning it on. It seemed to vibrate.. The doctor placed it over my cast, and slowly ran it down the length of my cast. I started to giggle slightly, as it did tickle. Aston stood smirking at me, so I stuck my tongue out at him. He pretended to look shocked, but I just laughed at him. I looked down again, to see there was a split down my cast. The doctor stuck his fingers in between it, and pulled the cast apart, removing it from my leg.
'Ew!' I laughed, looking at my leg. It was covered in really dark hairs, and was paler than the rest of my leg as it hadn't gotten any sun.
'Can you try and walk for me please?' the doctor asked me. Aston rushed round to my side and helped me to stand up. I walked around slowly, before I picked up the pace. Soon enough I was skipping round in circles whilst Aston stood laughing at me. I stopped to look at the doctor. He had his eyebrow raised and was giving me a disapproving look.
'So.. I can walk' I smiled.
'Okay. Well, I think that's everything.. You should be good to go' he told me.
'Thanks' Aston said, shaking the doctor's hand.
'No problem' he smiled. Aston took my hand and lead me outside to the car.
'I'm so happy I can walk again' I smiled once we got home.
'So am I' Aston grinned at me.
'Anyway, I need to go sort out my sexy leg' I smirked, pointing to my hairy white leg.
'Okay' Aston laughed. I skipped upstairs to our en suite, and busied sorting my leg. When I re emerged in my towel with my clothes bundled in my arms, Aston was hoovering our bedroom.
