With a soft sigh, Adam woke from his slumber. Hints of a pleasant dream lingered in his mind, fading until her could only remember that it was happy. Taking a deep breath. Adam rolled over and came face to face with a sleeping Jeff.
After getting over the initial shock (and pleasure) Adam remembered the happenings of last night. After a few long kisses, Jeff and Adam snuggled together and went to sleep. (A/N Get your minds out of the gutters, nothing's happened yet!!)
Slowly and quietly, as to not wake up 'Sleeping Beauty', as Adam called him silently, he got up and performed his morning ritual of washing, dressing and then he wrote a note to Jeff, before placing a light kiss on Jeff's cheek as he went out the door.

Down in the café of the hotel, Adam got a hot cup of coffee and sat in an open table, that was mostly hidden from the view of most rabid fans. As he sipped his coffee, he saw Kit, Shane, and Matt come down. As he watched, Kit ordered hot tea (caffeine doesn't go well with sugar for her), and Matt and Shane both ordered their drinks, and food (pastries for Matt).
They looked around, spotted Adam, smiled, waved, and made their way over. They conversed for a minute, Adam glancing frequently towards the elevator.
Finally, the person Adam was waiting for appeared through the elevator doors. Jeffery Nero Hardy stood there, before walking out with a huge yawn.
He ran a hand through his hair as he walked slowly to the café. Once there, he looked around, searching for Adam. When he spotted him, his eyes lit up and he bounced over.
Kit and Matt noticed a little more bounce in his step, and a similar glint in both Adam's and Jeff's eyes.
Jeff arrived and slid into the seat beside Adam and flashed a bright smile. That's when Matt and Kit realized what it was about them that was different. "OH MY GOD!!"- Kit exclaimed.
"Shit... uhhh... err.... Wow."- was the oh-so-intelligent-remark out of Matt's mouth.
Shane frowned, confused.
"Wow!! Way to go Adam!! Finally told him, didja?!"- Kit continued.
Adam frowned and glared at the Japanese girl, before reaching over and hugging Jeff, as if shielding him from the others. That confirmed it in everyone's minds. Even Shane had caught on by now.
Jeff blushed as everyone congratulated them in mock awe. Adam smiled, but hid it behind a scowl as he pretended to shoo them away with one hand, the other still keeping Jeff pinned against his chest.
Finally, after another few seconds of shooing, Adam released Jeff and settled back in his seat. Jeff, looking a bit ruffled, did the same and smiled at everyone.
Kit and Matt compared notes. Apparently, Matt knew Jeff had feelings for Adam, but Kit was the only one who knew they were returned. Kit had been trying to set them up for a while, making sure they roomed together or rode together, stalking them with patience and diligence that would make a monk gape. It was strange because most other things didn't keep her attention for more than a few minutes.
Jeff glared at her when he heard of her attempts.
After a couple more minutes of interrogations, Kit stood and dragged Matt and Shane with her as she walked off. She waved over her shoulder saying she'd give them some time alone.
Matt grinned over his shoulder and wandered off, no doubt to go find Amy.
Jeff and Adam watched them go and grinned. Jeff placed a light kiss of Adam's lips before saying "How long until Shane and Kit get together?"
Adam smiled. "A couple weeks. Shane's definitely infatuated but what about Kit?"
"I'd say a couple days after Backlash. I'm so sure that I'll bet 10 bucks!"
"You're on!"- Adam agreed before kissing Jeff... Again.
