"We can't just sit back and watch Brennan suffer like this" Shalimar
demanded to Adam.
"There is got to be something we can do?"
Adam looked at Shalimar and than to Jesse. "Jesse, see if you can find anything on Thorne online again. Check with Proxy Blue." With that Jesse bolted out of the medical lab. "I am afraid there is nothing more we can do at the moment Shalimar. Shalimar gave Adam a foul look.
"Come on Shalimar, lets go work out" Emma said with a tug to Shalimar's sleeve. Shalimar gave Brennan one last glance and agreeably followed Emma out.
Adam began more testing on the chemical components injected into Brennan. He took several blood samples from Brennan's arm. After hours of testing, Adam passed out on the table next to Brennan.
Brennan awoke on the table in the lab. His head was killing him. He was also starving. He looked over at Adam who was sleeping next to him. He really cares about me, Brennan thought to himself and he sat up trying not to make any noises. He took the blanket that was over him and gently placed it on Adam. He cautiously walked slowly out of the lab and down the hall. He looked up the stairs to see Shalimar's light was still on. He creped up the stairs and knocked on her door.
"Come in" she said.
Brennan slowly walked in and approached Shalimar sitting on her bed reading a book.
"What are you doing up" she immediately said with a concerned tone.
"I missed you" Brennan said as he sat down on her bed and put his head in her lap. "I am very sick Shal, I am confused, and I thought this was my bed".
"Ha Ha very funny Bren. I am starting to think there is nothing wrong with you after all". Shalimar said as she petted Brennan's hair as he looked up at her.
"You are so beautiful," Brennan said. "Can I sleep with you tonight. Promise I wont touch".
Shalimar smiled at Brennan and commented "If you promise your not going to touch, the answer is no" she said as she bent down and gave Brennan a kiss on the lips.
Brennan was not satisfied when she started to pull away, and he grabbed the back of her neck and forced her head back down and gave her a much longer, passionate kiss. He slowly released the grip on her neck as she kissed him back willingly. Shalimar ran her hand down and began rubbing Brennan's chest. His stomach growled so loud it made her laugh and brake the kiss off.
"When is the last time you ate?" Shalimar said in a humorous tone.
Brennan rubbed his stomach and looked back at Shalimar and responded, "When is the last time you cooked me a meal?"
Shalimar leaned back down and kissed his lips one last time, and answered,
"I will cook this time, only because you are hurt and I do not want you falling down the stairs. But do not think this is going to become a habit". She smiled at him and removed his head from her lap and placed her pillow underneath it.
"Fine with me" Brennan smiled in contentment.
Shalimar walk down the stairs and down the hall to the kitchen. Brennan did not even know they had found the cell phone in his pocket. His mind wondered away from Thorne for the first time as he lay at ease in Shalimar's bed. Brennan's mind slowly drifted off as he started to fall back into sleep. It seemed like only seconds later he heard a plate set down next to him on the end table. Brennan jerked his eyes open and slowly sat up leaning against the headboard of the bed.
"Did you come up her to sleep in my bed Brennan, because your room is closer to the med lab?" Shalimar said sweetly as she put a napkin in Brennan's lap and handed him a plate of chicken stir-fry with white rice. "Emma made it for dinner, left- over" she said with a grin.
"Smells good to me" Brennan said as he began to dig in. Brennan was only a fourth the way done with his plate when he felt a sharp pain in his head. He set the plate down on the end table and closed his eyes tipping his head back.
"Are you OK Bren, do you want me to go get Adam" Shalimar said quickly.
"No", Brennan said slowly removing his feet from her bed one by one and gradually standing up. "I will walk down to the med lab. Something is not right" Brennan said and began walking out of Shalimar's room and down the steps. It was becoming a huge effort to walk, and Shalimar saw this and grabbed his arm and put it around her neck. As they got into the med lab, Brennan bent down onto the table rubbing the back of his neck.
"Adam wake up" Shalimar said placing her hand on Adam chest and jerking him.
Adam instantly woke up and looked at Brennan and stood up. "What is wrong" Adam said as he placed his hand on Brennan's shoulder and pulled his light from his back pocket and placed it into Brennan's eyes.
"He had a little bit of stir-fry to eat, than he started holding his head" Shalimar said.
"I am fine. I think I am just not used to eating and it upset my body" Brennan said forcing Adam's arm to remove the light from his eye. Instantly Brennan grabbed his stomach, gave Adam a push to the left, bent over, and threw up the stir-fry all over the floor. He continued dry heaving for several minutes even though there was nothing left.
"That came with no warning" Brennan said as he wiped his mouth off with his sleeve. As he sat up, Adam and Shalimar noticed he had a nosebleed.
"Brennan, Thorne wants you to call him on his cell phone when you are capable." Adam said as he flashed the light in Brennan's eye once more.
"Get that out of my face" Brennan demanded as he pushed the light out of Adam's hand, this time knocking it on the floor and breaking it. Blood began pumping out of Brennan's nose violently and his eyes rolled back into his head once more. This time Adam was prepared. Adam laid him back quickly, wrapping a strap around his chest and instructed Shalimar to wrap the strap around his legs. They moved quickly and were able to strap his arms in just as he began convulsing. Blood was pumping so rapidly from Brennan's nostrils that his shirt was almost completely drenched. Shalimar picked up the cell phone and hit redial.
When Thorne answered he said "Mr. Mulwray".
"No, this isn't Mr. Mulwray you sick fuck. What are you doing to Brennan and how do we stop this!" Shalimar commanded.
"Brennan deserves to die" Thorne said. "You are a spineless piece of shit, and I am going to kill you myself. Where are you?"
Thorne just laughed. "I have no problem with you. This is between Mulwray and me. He will not die from the poison I injected in him. He will just suffer a bit. I am anxious to meet with him again. When he is ready, tell him to call me." Thorne said than hanging up.
Adam looked at Shalimar and than to Jesse. "Jesse, see if you can find anything on Thorne online again. Check with Proxy Blue." With that Jesse bolted out of the medical lab. "I am afraid there is nothing more we can do at the moment Shalimar. Shalimar gave Adam a foul look.
