The next morning

Kim woke up because the alarm was going up and surprised she looked as Adam was asleep against her, his head half on her chest and his mouth slightly open, snoring softly and she smiled, as he was sleeping so peacefully. Slowly she sat up and woke him up and she looked at him.

''Today is Saturday…and we have a day off…and you set the alarm.'' He mumbled then.

''I forgot about it.'' She said and he kissed her. They shared another kiss and he got up then.

''I think we should work out in the gym then as punishment for the alarm…together with me.''

''Sounds good.'' She said as she had been working out in a long time. ''I am just scared my arm is still too sore.''

''Well, we could try how it goes and you could always run or use the bike and I will lift.'' He said flexing his arms but pulled her closer then.

''But you are happy again now…what was wrong tonight, why where you crying?'' He asked concerned, he had been holding her all the time she had been crying until she had fallen asleep. He had put her back in bed then and had fallen asleep while holding her. He was glad she was cheered up now but she had been crying and he wanted to know why she had been crying.

''I had a nightmare... then I woke up and was scared.'' She said, looking at him, lying to his face and she felt so bad for lying because lying was so bad in a relationship, but she wanted to make sure to him that she was okay. Because she felt a lot better this morning and she was still afraid for rejection when she brought up the scars.

''If something was wrong, you would tell me, right?'' He asked concerned and she nodded.

''Of course.'' She said, kissing him. ''I will pack my back to go to the gym.''

''Don't worry, I am driving, so we can get changed here so we can shower at home again after sporting.'' He said then.

''Why not?''

''because I hate changing with all those man around me.''

She laughed; ''Why, insecure, Rambo?''

''No, I don't want to make the other men feel bad.'' He laughed then and Kim nodded. She didn't feel much for changing with all the other women around her. It would only make her feel more nervous. He got dressed quickly as she was reading some news on her phone.

''Get your sexy ass out of bed and go dress.'' He laughed then as he saw she was still in bed with her phone.

''Make me.'' She laughed, teasing him and she was glad she finally felt a little better. He ran to the bed, throwing the blankets of the bed and took her ankles and dragged her out of bed and kissed her. She laughed then and got up.

''Fine, fine.'' She laughed then and he walked out to make a small breakfast for in the car and she was busy with looking for her sport clothes in his closet.

Looking at the stash of the sport clothes she had kept here for when they would hit the gym together, she realized all of them were tanktops.

''Are you ready to go?'' Adam called them and she grabbed one of the tops and the pants, putting them on and running to the bathroom she looked in the mirror, all of the scars visible now and she looked for a vest in the closet, but none was found.

Suddenly Adam grabbed her around her waist and lifted her up and dragged her away.

''Adam, ADAM. I still need to put my hair in a ponytail!'' She laughed and he kissed her in her neck again.

''You got two minutes.'' He said then, letting go of her and she ran to the mirror, putting her hair in a ponytail and just had about enough time to do her hair before Adam stood behind her again and they walked to the car. She felt really uncomfortable because of the tanktop but didn't dare to tell him and he drove the gym. The parking lot was just a little away from the gym and they still had to walk five minutes. She grabbed his hand as they walked over the street, not so comfortable anymore now.

Walking on the street beside Adam, she felt really uncomfortable. She kept holding his hand as they were getting ready to hit the gym, but she felt so bad right now. She knew all her scars were there for everybody to see. Ruzek was right, it was really hot outside but she still felt bad.

Some teenagers sitting on a bench, drinking soda and listening to loud music looked and pointed at her then and laughed.

''What is on that arm, looks like the rocky mountains.'' One of them laughed and Adam wondered if he was stoned.

''Come on, let's keep walking.'' Adam whispered, kissing her on her cheek. She looked down at the street, knew they were just stupid teenagers laughing because they thought it was cool, but it hurt her, it hurt her really bad.

''It was just scars man, don't be an ass.'' Ruzek said angry as the teenagers were still laughing at her.

''It looks like a scary disease.'' One of them laughed as he threw his empty can on the floor.

''What did you just say?'' Adam yelled angry as he walked towards.

''That it looks like a scary disease.'' The teenager said, getting up. Adam picked up the can and walked towards him. The boys kept standing and he wanted to slap the boy in the face after saying this about his girlfriend.

''Throw this away and throw yourself away, you piece of trash.'' Adam said as he pushed the can against the boy's face and looked at his buddies.

''You think you are all kinds of tough for laughing at a police officer whom got shot down on the job? Whom got shot with a shotgun. You should learn something about some damn respect!'' He yelled angry. ''You think you are great for laughing at a few scars? You are sitting here, drinking mountain dew and eating Doritos and just laughing at an injured police officer. You need to get a life!'' Adam said angry and the boys just looked at him. He knew he had to stop before he would get even more angry.

Adam turned around, ready to walk on with Kim, angry for what just had happened and he hoped she did not feel bad and was looking where she had been standing, but she was gone now and he looked around, worried.

''Kim…KIM!''

The boys were laughing as he walked and ran around, panicking.

''Kim!'' He yelled, worried.

Maybe she was already at the gym. He ran to the gym, looked around for her there, but he could not find her and he grabbed his phone, dialing her number and put it against his ear.

''Come on Kim….please take your phone.'' He hissed.

NOTE: Adam put her back in bed and she was still not honest to him about the reason why she was crying because she is still scared for rejection! They had a good morning but then some teenagers made fun of her in the street and Adam tried to protect her, but she is gone now. Where is she and can Adam find her in time?

Still coming up: Kim is facing more problems with Roman and Antonio has arranged something for her!
