Bombay had just fallen asleep when the phone rang. Cursing slightly, he walked to the living clad in only a pair of blue boxers and a white t-shirt. He cursed again when he found that the phone wasn't on the hook. After searching quickly, he found the phone and turned it on as his answering machine began to turn on to take a message.

" Hello? Gordon Bombay speaking." he asked slightly annoyed.

" This is Dr.Yama from the New Spring hospital. Early an Adam Banks was brought in and on his medical forms he has you as his contact instead of his parents." He frowned hearing this but said nothing as she continued. " Whatever the reason he trust you more then his own family, so I would like if you would come down as soon as possible." He agreed and after getting her name, he got dressed and left for the hospital. He went to the desk and asked for the doctor.

" She'll be right out. She's with your son." He frowned but said nothing waiting for the doctor to arrive. After long minutes of waiting she appeared. Her hair was dark red while her eyes were bright green. She wore the usual white jacket and green pants like all of the other doctors.

" Hi, you must be Mr. Bombay. I would like to talk to you privately about Adam's condition…is that all right?" he nodded and followed her into her office. She offered him a seat, which he sat down in silently. " I but you're wondering by now what's wrong with Adam…right?" he nodded again. " Earlier an elderly couple brought him in. Someone had left him on their doorstep beaten, sick, and…naked."

" Naked? Why was h…" he stopped as fear began to settle into his stomach. " He wasn't raped…was he?" she looked at him sadly.

" Unfortunately yes. The man who did it beat him to make him weak then raped him. His wrist were rubbed raw and the police think that he was tied to something." She stopped and looked him. " This won't be put in the paper, he's traumatized enough…no one else needs to know what happened unless he wants to tell someone." He nodded. " His rectum was also torn a bit but it won't cause any problems, other then bleeding slightly for a while. I want him to stay in the hospital for tonight, I should keep him for more but I rather have him somewhere more comfortable, but I don't want him alone."

" Ok. Can I see him?" she nodded and led him to a closed off room. Bombay walked in and winced slightly seeing his old player. The young 14-year-old teen was curled on the bed looking like a 7 year old. He had a couple bruises, a cut lip, his wrists were bandaged gently, and his neck had a small bandaged under his ear. He took a seat next to him knowing he wasn't about to leave the kid's side. The doctor left with a sad smile not wanting to bother him with any more details or facts. She came back to check up on Adam and on the second time she found Bombay sleeping in the chair. When she arrived in the morning, Bombay was up still sitting next to the teen watching Hockey on the TV.

" Morning." He said softly.

" Morning. Hockey? You a fan? I've been watching for the past year." She asked as she checked Adam's vitals and dosages. He nodded looking at her.

" I played for the stars but a knee injury kept me out. Now I help with the Goodwill games." He told her. She smiled hearing that. " Ever hear of the Ducks? The team that came up to beat Iceland?" she shook her head as she closed the file. " They were a hell of a team. They had an ass hole couch for awhile before their real couch came back. Went into sudden death to beat them."

" Sounds like a good game. I might have to find someone who has a copy and watch it. I'll be back later." She said smiling and leaving. Bombay went back to his game until stirring from the bed caught his attention. He watched as blue eyes blinked open slowly before looking around frightened, the eyes landed on him instantly making him have to smile comfortingly at him.

" Hey Banks. Glad you're up. Had me scared for a while." He told him gently. " I've been here all night waiting for you to wake up." Banks sat up with his help, wincing slightly as he settled down comfortable. Bombay sat back down not sure of what to say anymore until the teen spoke up.

" Thanks for coming coach." His voice was raw and soft.

" No problem. I would like to know why I'm on the list and not your parents." The blonde avoided his eyes slightly. " I can get you out of here if you tell me later." The blonde nodded agreeing. " Good let me go find the doctor and we can leave." Bombay said just as Dr.Yama walked.

" Good morning! Glad to see you're up. After a couple test I'll let Bombay take you home." He nodded slightly as she motioned Bombay to leave the room. His blue eyes followed his coach in slight fear…he didn't like being alone with a stranger…not after…he stopped at the thought suppressing a shudder. Bombay noticed the shudder and smiled at him comfortingly before he shut the door. When he did he let out a long sigh resting his head against the wall. He knew that he was going to need help but without causing to many people noticing and trouble. As he waited he decided if it was ok with Adam, to call Casey and fill her in and hope she would help.

" Ok, he's all ready to leave. He'll be right out he's getting dressed. Bring him in once a week. Here's the medicine that he'll need. You're supposed to pick it up at the desk but I don't think it would be a good idea to have him around to many people in an enclosed space." He nodded and took the bottles. " So do you know anyone with the tape?" she asked.

" Yeah actually I do. Every coach got a copy of any game their team played, so I have a couple tapes of the Ducks." He said smiling slightly. " Hey Adam, read to go?" he asked the blonde gently as he walked out. He was wearing a pair of black sweatpants and a plain white t-shirt. Adam nodded slightly to the question moving beside him, keeping his head down. " Good bye, Dr.Yama." she waved slightly shocked that that was the Ducks coach. As they walked, Bombay felt a small hand grasp his tightly. Bombay squeezed it gently before leading the blonde to his car. Bombay unlocked it and opened Adam's door making the blonde shoot him a look but he only smiled and got in himself. On the drive home, both were silent unsure of what to say.

" My parents disowned me." Adam said suddenly. His voice was still hoarse but it seemed to be getting a little better.

" What? Why?" he asked in shock.

" I told them…I was uh…gay." He muttered as if a shame. Bombay frowned in anger before glancing at the teen beside him. He had his head turned slightly while his hands rested in his lap limply, every once in a while a tremor would race through him.

" That's no reason to disown their kid. My brother's gay…so is half of my cousins." Bombay said to him gently. " You're dad's an ass hole Adam." The blonde nodded in agreement. " Oh, I have to ask you something. I never really took care of kids and I have a feeling I'm going to need help. I wanted to make sure before I ask, do you mind if I tell Casey?" the blonde stared at the ground thinking.

" Ok…but won't Charlie find out something's up?" Bombay noticed a small blush on his face making him smile mentally, he like Charlie.

" No…I don't think he would. We could say that you're sick, you're dad kicked you out for being on the ducks, and you're staying with me." The blonde nodded slightly agreeing. Bombay pulled into his driveway and they both got out of the convertible. He opened the door and let Adam go in first before following. Everything was messy making him smile sheepishly. " Sorry, I would've cleaned."

" It's ok, Charlie's like this with our dorm room." He told him softly. Bombay smiled before leading him to his guest room. He grabbed some sheets, pillows, and a blanket to make the bed for his new charge. After he was done, he allowed the blonde to crawl onto the bed. Before he even walked out of the door, soft snores reached his ear making him smile sadly. He went to his phone and began to call Casey.
