I was rocking, backward and forward, my chin bouncing on something bumpy.

I opened my eyes; white. "Not again," I groaned, only I couldn't really. My mouth was squished up against something.

Chase heard me, though. "Adam?" Vibrated his voice from underneath my chin, rough and strained. I hummed absently in reply. I realized my arms were looped around his neck, and it only then occurred that I was moving, but not walking myself.

Chase was carrying me.

We joke about him. We call him weak. But the truth is that Chase is stronger than anyone gives him credit for.
