Charles' POV
Eric got up and walked around to my side of the bed. Carefully, he picked me up and placed me on a stool so that I could get dressed. I struggled to get in my trousers however eventually I managed to get them on - being paralysed is a pain in the arse. I lent back against the wall and took a deep breath.
"You ok love?" Eric called.
"Yeah." I panted slightly.
I know I could have asked Eric to help me however I needed to at least try and do some things on my own - I don't want him to think I am a lazy bastard.
Eric walked out of the bathroom and over to me. I smiled at him as he asked "Do you want me to help you get into your wheelchair?"
"In a minute," I responded.
Eric stepped forward so he was standing between my legs (which were splayed awkwardly doing nothing) and placed one hand in the wall above my head; he gently placed his other hand on my back. I put one hand on his arse and the other rested on his bicep as he lent down and pressed our lips together. I gently squeezed his arse which made Eric let out a surprised gasp before he deepened the kiss.

Eric: as much as I am enjoying you having your hand on my arse, don't you have baking to do
Charles: I'm glad you are enjoying it
Charles: oh yes I had almost forgotten about that
Eric: Charles Francis forgetting about baking he has to do, is the world ending?
Charles: I was rather preoccupied with more important thoughts
Eric: what were these thoughts that were more important than baking?
Charles: how nice your arse is, how much I hate being paralysed as I can't have sex with you and how good your lips felt against mine.
Eric: those are quite some thoughts
Charles: yep
Eric: well I hate to draw you away from them however you have gingerbread to bake
Charles: probably a good thing you're changing the subject, if you didn't I don't think my boner would go away
Eric: let's get you into the wheelchair then
Charles: thanks love
Eric: it's no trouble at all

Eric: how is the gingerbread going?
Charles: I'm just about to put the dough into the fridge
Eric: how long does it chill in the fridge for?
Charles: well it doesn't really have a specific time, normally I put it in there for around an hour or so
Eric: what did you want to do while you wait
