Chapter 3

The next morning Sarah and Desiree had gotten up before anyone else so they could start decorating for their momma's birthday. Sarah walked outside in the back to set up the grill and to place the two table cloths on each table; boy was she glad they invested in getting two outdoor tables. She began placing the plates on the tables and once she was finished with that she first grabbed the forks then the knives and then the spoons after that she placed the cups beside each plates. She grabbed the bags threw them away and just as she turned she was interrupted with a throat clearing she turned and saw a young man standing there it was Thomas Marley.

"Can I help you with something?" Sarah asked.

"Yes ma'am could you perhaps tell me if Adam is here?" Thomas asked.

"No sir" Sarah said.

"Could you tell me where he is?" Thomas asked.

"Um...I don't think he would appreciate me telling you his location I mean your welcome to wait for him if you want, but as in telling you where he's at? No can do. Sorry" Sarah told him

Thomas didn't like that one bit he was beginning to get angry he marched over to her and grabbed her by the arm and pulled her close to him while growling in her face "You have 2 seconds to tell me where he is" Sarah was beginning to be afraid.

"Let go of my arm!" Sarah yelled and loudly too.

"Hey! get your hands off of my sister" Derek called out he and Reid had decided to stay at the house seeing how his momma had the guest room available. He ran outside just as Thomas took off he stopped at his sister "Sarah are you ok?" Derek asked she nodded.

"Yeah I'm ok thanks Derek" Sarah said with a smile he nodded and decided to stay outside and help her just in case that asshole decided to come back.

"Who was that anyway?" Derek asked while pouring the charcoal into the grill.

"I don't know, but he asked for Adam and when I didn't give him his location he got mad and that's when he grabbed me and told me I had 2 seconds to tell him and then you came out nice timing by the way" Sara explained. Derek grunted then turned as someone circled their arms around him.

"Hey baby" Derek smiled as Reid rested his chin on his shoulder.

"Hey yourself lover" Reid said back kissing him on his cheek.

"Ugh don't make me gag" Desiree said coming out, but was smiling none the less as Derek stuck his tongue out at her.

"Who was that Derek?" Reid asked

"Don't know, but if he ever comes near my family again he'll regret the day he was born" Derek growled "What did he want with Adam anyway?"

"Don't know Derek, but the best way to know for sure is to ask Adam yourself" Sarah said Derek nodded and that's what he planned on doing.

After they had gotten everything set up Derek started the grill letting it heat to the right temp before he put the food on. Greg showed up first with Nick and his friends they each brought a dish with them; next was the BAU team they brought some rolls then in came Adam with Mac and his team they too had stopped at the store and brought something for the BBQ. They greeted everyone and took the food to the table setting it down they grabbed themselves each a chair and sat down while the kids played. Sarah walked over to the New York CSI team she sat beside Adam as did her mom and brother Desiree sat between Greg and his team and they all began talking, it was then Sarah remembered that guy so she turned to Adam.

"Oh Adam before I forget someone was here asking for you" Sarah said Adam turned to her.

"Who was it?" Adam asked he had a feeling, but he needed to make sure.

"Don't know, but he grabbed Sarah by the arm when she wouldn't tell him where you were located" Derek answered for her that grabbed his mom's attention.

"What? Who grabbed you Sarah?" Fran asked.

"I don't know who it was mom, but when I refused to tell him where Adam was he got mad and grabbed my arm he kind of scared me, but I know one thing it was the same person who called the house the other night for Adam" Sarah said they all turned to Adam who looked shocked his eyes wide and mouth hung opened.

Mac looked at each of his team mates they sighed and nodded as did he, he turned back to Adam placing a hand on his shoulder "Adam all bets are off! He went as far as to attack your sister it's time they new" Mac said seriously Adam turned to him.

"Mac no you promised we could wait" Adam begged.

"Yeah I did and I also said that if he even tried to make contact with you or your family that all bets were off remember that?" Mac told him. Adam went to say something when Fran beat him too it.

"What are you talking about? Adam what is going on and don't you dare say we are waiting until tomorrow I want to know and I want to know NOW!" Fran demanded crossing her arms daring him to argue Adam looked at her then to Derek and Greg who was doing the same thing he sighed.

"Your right Mac he attacked my sister and I'll never forgive myself for that!" Adam said sadly he then looked at his family "The other reason I came out here was to make sure that you guys were safe and unharmed! You, Sarah and Desiree then I was going to call Greg and Derek to make sure that they were safe and ok as well, but I didn't expect to see them here...well I guess I did, but I was too focused on you three to even think that they would be here" Adam told her.

"What are you talking about? Adam we are fine why would you need to make sure we were safe? Son please what is going on?" Fran asked desperately.

"Mom that guy that attacked Sarah his name is Thomas Marley and well he..." Adam begun then paused taking a deep breath.

"He what?" Derek pressed he was afraid to know.

With a sigh Adam continued "About three years ago Thomas Marley stalked me! That had gone on for about 4 day's before kidnapping me, but when he kidnapped me he also took Mac too only to shoot him and leave him in a coma for three days straight while he got away with...with...with raping me before I had gotten away by breaking a window out" Adam explained his voice trembled with fright he turned and buried his face into Mac's chest as he held him.

"He came after Adam again we caught him in the end then about 2 weeks ago he escaped from prison and we know he's going to come after him again. He came out here so he could make sure you were safe and unhurt" Mac finished the rest. He looked at the shocked faces of his family.

Fran got up and slowly walked over to her son she took her baby into her arms and held him tightly "Adam why wasn't I called when this happened?" Fran asked.

"Or me for that matter? If I had known this I would have been to New York in a heartbeat!" Derek growled out he was not happy to hear this news he was not at all happy to hear that this bastard had hurt his baby brother.

"Because one I wasn't really thinking at the time I was too busy trying to fight for my life and two even if I had thought about it I didn't want you two too worry or him to get either one of you because of me" Adam said with a sigh. "and after it was all over I just wanted to forget it all happened"

"Adam that doesn't matter you matter more then anything else" Fran told him taking his face into her hands "and of course I'll worry about you, your my son just as I worry about Greg, Derek, Sarah and Desiree" Adam nodded.

"I agree with mom Adam I worry about you too. Your my baby brother and I love you just as I love Greg, Sarah and Desiree and I would be there for you in a heartbeat" Derek said Adam nodded.

"As would I" Greg added Sarah and Desiree nodded in agreement Adam was overcome with love; love from his friends and fiance and love from his family. He began to sob latching on to Mac who held him.

"Shhh it's ok baby it's going to be ok?" Mac cooed.

"I'm just sooooo scared Mac! He's out there somewhere and I know at any given second he could take me and I can't go through that again...not again" Adam sobbed Mac sighed and looked over at his friends they shook their heads.

"Danny call Stella let her know that Thomas has escaped and tell her where we are ok?" Mac commanded Danny nodded and took his cell out.

"Adam listen to me ok? I will not let anything happen to you" Derek told him firmly Adam looked over at him and then sighed.

"Derek you don't know him like we do! He is slippery, one way or another he will find away to get me it's only a matter of time" Adam explained "And he will kill anyone in his way and if he killed you because you were protecting me I would never forgive myself"

"Adam that's not going to happen because he has never dealt with us before" Derek countered

"Derek is right Adam, he has never dealt with us before and we will protect those we love right Nick?" Greg said Nick nodded.

"Greg's right! Ya mess with one CSI and ya mess with us all. We're in what about ya guys?" Nick said his friends nodded as he turned to the BAU team they too nodded.

"You bet count us in as well" Rossi stated.

Adam looked at them all then smiled gratefully he nodded "Thank you! All of you" they smiled and nodded back.

"I told her Mac, Stella said said she will be here sometime tomorrow or Thursday" Danny stated Mac nodded he turned too Fran.

"You don't mind if I give your address to our good friend Stella do you?" Mac asked Fran shook her head.

"No not at all" She said with a smile they smiled back

with that in mind and with both CSI and the BAU team backing Adam up they continued with the BBQ they could only hope they can keep the young man safe.
