Chapter eleven: You Know
Adam's P.O.V.
I held Chase in my arms. There was blood dripping down his chin. He was pale and he felt cold. He was shivering and whimpering. I felt helpless.
"Adam we have to take Chase home," Mr. D says.
"Is he going to be alright?" I ask.
"Yes but we need to take him to the lab," he answers.
"Shouldn't we go to a hospital?" Leo asks.
"They'll start asking questions," Mr. D replies.
I pick Chase up and carry him to the awaiting jet.
"Adam?" He asks groggily.
"Hey," I answer softly.
"I'm so tired," he sighs.
"I know you are. You can sleep all you want when you're out of danger," I reply.
"What happened?"
"There was an explosion and you stayed behind...then you managed to come back but Spike attacked a creepy guy," I explain.
"Spike?" He groans.
"Take it easy," I chide.
"I don't like when Spike decides to show up," he says.
"I know," I respond.
"I don't like it...not after what happened," he continues tiredly.
"You got to admit that I deserved that," I laugh.
"No you didn't...I was barely five," he sighs.
"Yeah and I still didn't learn my lesson," I joke.
"I still love you...you can tease me and throw me around but nothing will change how I feel," he confesses.
"...I don't deserve this...and forget about any throwing around..." I say in a serious tone.
He snuggles closer to me. Though his breathing isn't even I know he fell asleep again.
"How's he doing?" Leo asks entering the jet.
"He's been waking up for a few minutes then he goes back to sleep," I inform.
"Here," Mr. D hands me a mask.
"What's this?" I ask curiously.
"Oxygen mask, when he wakes up I need you to put it on him," he replies.
"Why?"
"He's losing oxygen and he's dying due to it...we need to keep him alive as long as we can," he explains.
"You mean he's dying? But we're bionic," Bree says confused.
"Yes you guys are bionic...but you're also human, remember that," Mr. D agrees.
The jet's engine starts and in a matter of seconds we're in the air. The flight is calm with Leo, Bree, and Dr. Evans sit in front of me. Mr. D is the pilot so he's way up front. I'm in the back cradling Chase.
"...ugh"
"Chase!" I smile.
"Hi..." Chase smiles wearily.
"I'm glad you're awake," I say sincerely.
He smiles again.
"I need you to wear this," I motion to the oxygen mask.
He gives a slight nod.
"Can you sit?" I question.
He doesn't answer and instead struggles to sit by himself.
"Stop...Here," I say helping him.
"Sorry," he apologizes.
"Don't be."
I place the mask on him and observe how he breathes a bit in ease.
"Better?"
"Yeah."
"Next time let me do the reckless things," I whisper.
He shivers at my warm breath in his neck.
He turns to face me with a glint on his eyes.
I look around. No one's looking. I close the space between us. My lips touch his cold ones.
"Adam," he breathes.
"Chase I love you," I smile again.
"We can get caught," he replies.
"I can take the risk," I shrug.
"No Adam...I can't," he sighs.
"What? Why?"
"I...I-" he begins.
I sigh noticing his drooping eyes, "sleep."
He nods and reluctantly closes his hazel eyes yet again. I kissed him because I want to make sure that he's still alive. That he's still breathing...
I eventually join him in sleep and hold him closer. This is just one big nightmare.
I carry Chase inside avoiding the tent in our living room.
"I'll explain later," was all Mr. D said.
I place Chase on a white clean bed. It was in an adjoining room to the lab.
"So clean," I mumble.
"It is basically like a mini hospital," Mr. D nods.
"…I hate hospitals," I say with distaste.
"Wait outside," Mr. D motions for everyone to leave.
We go and wait outside in the lab for news. A few hours later Mr. D comes out in a blue scrubs.
"Surprised they had your size," Leo jokes.
Mr. D rolls his eyes. I refrain from laughing because it certainly isn't the time for that.
"The surgery went smoothly so everyone can go up and rest," Mr. D smiles at his success.
"No…I'm going to stay," I cut in.
"So will I," Bree yawns.
Mr. D turns to a clock and notices it's two in the morning.
"Same here," Leo adds.
"Fine…I'll be back in the morning. There are extra beds in the ER so each could have your own," he finally agreed.
Bree, Leo, and I walk in and instead of going towards an empty bed I head to a chair and sit next to Chase's bed.
"Adam?" Bree asks softly.
"I'm staying here," I answer without taking my eyes off of Chase.
She sighs but doesn't say anything and just joins Leo.
"Adam...Adam wake up."
"What?" I rub my sleepy eyes.
I get up and suddenly feel empty. I feel the panic rising.
"Calm down. He's fine," Mr. D assures before leaving to get breakfast for us.
I look to my right and see Chase sleeping peacefully.
"Where are we?"
"ER in the lab," Leo answers.
I finally remember where we were and what happened the night before.
"How...is he?"
"Better than before," Bree says.
I nod.
"Did you two finally get together?" Leo finally asks.
There's a knowing smile on Bree.
"What?"
"You and Chase...are you...you know 'dating?'" Bree winked.
"Yeah we...you know...'are'," I roll my eyes.
"Finally!" Leo yells.
"Ssh!" Bree hisses.
"Oops...anyway Bree you owe me a soda," Leo whispers.
I tilt my head to the side.
"Oh we know that you guys liked each other. I actually knew when you guys started dating," Bree says.
"We also bet on how fast you would figure it out yourselves. I said in a year or less, Bree bet on the next twenty," Leo laughs.
"Oh. Does that mean I get a soda too?" I question.
Bree rolls her eyes.
"...ok maybe not," I back off.
"Of course not! You couldn't even protect him from the mission!" Eddy yells.
"Eddy!" We all jump surprised.
"It's true!"
"No one invited you in our conversation," Leo yells.
"For your information I know a few things you'd die to know," he chuckles.
Bree raises a questioning eyebrow. She turns to look at me with her hand on her hip.
"Adam?" We all stop our bickering.
"Chase!" I smile instantly, my heart flutters at the mere sound of his voice.
I get up and place a chaste kiss on his lips.
"Ew ok I'm out," Leo says with hands raised.
Leo leaves with Bree following behind. Eddy turns off leaving me and Chase completely alone.
