Okay, here comes more drama! Please review. 86.
Adam and Fiona were walking down the street to her condo. Fiona was taking deep breaths and biting her nails. Adam looked over at her.
"Hey." Adam stopped her and took her hand. "It's okay. I'll be right there with you, and if they don't go along with the idea I'll stay with you."
"Although that will never happen, it feels good hearing it."
"It will happen. I'll make sure of it."Adam kissed her hand. Then they continued walking.
Once they reached the door Fiona stopped and stared at it. Her breath sped up and she looked scared. Adam took her hand again and stroked it. He always did. At first it was because she liked her hands, but now it was a habit.
"You can do this." he whispered next to her ear. Fiona smiled at him.
She opened the door and walked in. they closed the door quietly. As they walked into the living room they saw more and more people standing in it. None of them saw her because they were facing the other way or looking down. Fiona cleared her throat and everyone looked up. Her mom stared at her and then ran to hug Fiona. Fiona hugged her and cried into her shoulder. Everyone else gathered and shared a group hug. Fiona's mom looked up and saw Adam standing awkwardly. She pulled away from Fiona and looked at him.
"Thanks for bringing her home." she smiled. Adam smiled back and looked at Fiona, who nodded.
"Actually, I have a confession. She's been staying with me." Adam lowered his head.
"What?" Mrs. Coyne yelled.
"She showed up to my door and needed a place to stay." Adam explained. Fiona looked over to see her mom staring at her in wonder. Fiona took a deep breath and explained to her mom and friends everything.

"Oh, my baby!" Mrs. Coyne gasped, and hugged Fiona tightly as she cried after the story.
Fiona had gone into great detail about how it made her feel and what she was thinking. She added some parts Adam had never heard and so he had to leave the room.
"Well, I'm sure it's clear what we're going to do. Press charges against Bobby." Fiona's mom said angrily.
"Mom, I totally agree, but I wanted to ask you if we could wait till school was over?" Fiona asked, shyly.
"Oh, Fiona I don't want to do this either, but we have to and the longer we wait the harder it's going to be to prove what Bobby did. We need to do this now. I think you should go check on Adam."
"That's another thing I wanted to talk about. See I need to go back to school and if I do that Bobby will see me and he'll hear about the charges soon enough and then I don't know if I'll be safe. After everything he has done."
"Then I'll stay here."
"No, mom you need to work and he knows I live here."
"Then what about Holly J's?"
"If I go home with her everyday he'll know I'm with her, and I can't drag Holly J down with me."
"Then where?"
"With Adam?" her mom was on the verge of saying no when Fiona continued. "I got all my homework done this weekend. He can help me and I'm not doing this because I like him. He wants to keep me safe and I trust him. The hospital has around the clock security and cameras. I'll be safer there than anywhere." her mom thought for awhile.
"I guess you raise an interesting point, but if you start to fail I will take you to New York and you'll have to retake the 12th grade."
"Yes, I understand. I'm going to go tell Adam. Then we'll leave. Mom just so you know, you shouldn't visit often. Bobby might see you. I don't want you to get hurt."
"Don't worry I'm going to go to New York to talk to the lawyer."
Fiona smiled and hugged her mom then she walked outside to find Adam. He was leaning up against the wall outside the door and staring into the dark sky with fear.
"What's wrong?" Fiona asked, worried.
"It's night." Adam answered calmly. Not taking his eyes off the sky.
"Yeah, we can go home now. My mom said yes." Fiona cheered, but Adam stared off into the sky, looking lost. Fiona looked where he was looking. "Okay I give up what are we looking at?"
"I can't be out at night."
"Don't worry I'm sure they'll understand why we were out past are curfew."
"It's not that!" Adam shouted and finally looked away from the sky.
"Then what?"
"Before I was put into the hospital. I was a street kid. Got hourly beatings from gangs, had to steal food and sometimes got caught and beaten by fat cooks. One time I was running away from a gang at night and got hit by a car. It caused damage that made me have a fear of cars in the dark. That's why I'll never be out of that hospital." Adam cried. Fiona hugged Adam.
"Come on lets go call the hospital and tell them you're staying here." Fiona pulled Adam in the condo.

"Fiona I'll sleep on the couch." Adam stated.
"You didn't let me sleep on the floor, I won't make you sleep on the couch." Fiona pulled Adam into her room and pushed on the bed."Besides, we won't fall off of this bed." Fiona leaned in, but Adam stopped her.
"Fiona, I don't think this is working."
"What?"
"You're confused and under stress. You're just looking for someone to be there for you. I'm here yes, but I feel that you aren't in the right place for a relationship, yet."
"Then why did you kiss me all those times?"
"I didn't want you to feel alone. I'm sorry that I lead you on." Fiona started to cry.
"Great, I fight to stay with you and you don't even love me."
"No, no, I care for you a lot, but I'm just saying that we should wait till after the trial to see how you feel. If you still want to be together I would love that. I just don't want to be a rebound."
"You're not!"
"Fiona, please. Just wait till the whole Bobby thing is done and then we can kiss and cuddle all you want." Adam smiled happily at the thought. Fiona smiled, too.
"But Adam I do want to be with you. You're not a rebound."
"I'd like to believe that, but I just want to make sure."
"Adam by the time the trial is done. I'll be graduating." Adam's smile fell.
"Then there is no point of starting something."
"No, no, Adam please!"
"Goodnight, Fiona." Adam walked into the living room with his head down, ignoring Fiona's cries.
