The three teammates came back home and felt the silence.
"Where are Adam and Emma?" Brennan asked softly walking into the hall from the garage.
Shalimar led the way toward the bedrooms and stopped short.
"Adam." Jesse said softly. When Adam didn't respond the three Mutants just stared at him shocked.
Adam never let his eyes leave Emma's closed door. He kept willing his eyes to see through the door to see Emma. He pushed himself from the wall and walked to the door and pounded on it. "EMMA LET ME IN. I NEED TO EXPLAIN LET ME EXPLAIN!" He screamed.
Silence.
"Emma please don't shut me out. I can explain everything please let me in." Adam said back in his normal tone hoping that this would get Emma to open the door.
Silence.
*Please Emma please.* Adam thought hoping that this would get through to Emma. He jumped suddenly when and hand was placed on his shoulder. *Emma!* He thought joyfully not thinking straight. He turned around with an huge smile on his face only to find Shalimar, Jesse and Brennan at his back. His smile fell and saddens washed over his face.
"Adam leave Emma alone right now. She'll come around." Brennan said.
"How long have you been standing here?" Jesse asked.
"Soon after you three left." Adam replied.
"Why that was four hours ago." Shalimar said surprised. "Adam go get some rest." With that Shalimar led her friend to his bedroom.
The two young men followed to make sure that Adam would indeed rest.
"Why wouldn't she let me in?" Adam asked sadly as he sat down on his bed.
"Well you have treated her unkind." Brennan said as he pointed down to Adam's shoes.
"I didn't mean to. " Adam whispered as he took of his shoes. He turned sideways so that he could slid his legs underneath his covers. He leaned back and pulled up the covers. "I didn't mean to." He closed his eyes finally.
The three young Mutants looked at Adam and sighed and walked from his room.
