Here is chapter 3.
A/N Since the character Adam Ross does not have much information on likes and dislikes to my recollection I have assumed his favourite food and if i am completely wrong I am happy to accept constructive criticism.
I would call this chapter pure fluff. So please bear with it I had left this originally as a gap and continued to write the more interesting parts. So I have effectively finished and i am going to post more regularly.
The next thing Adam knew was the steady beep of what sounded like a heart monitor.
"Wait a heart monitor, that can't be. The last thing I remember is... is..." Adam thought to himself.
Before he could finish his thought he heard a voice, and a familiar voice at that, calling to him.
"Adam?".
Adam's eyes slowly opened. The room just looked like one big white blur. He blinked a few times and the details began to bleed through.
"Hey, Mac" Adam said sleepily.
Adam said trying to sit up, but instead a jolt of pain ran through his right hand side causing him to lie back down.
"Take it easy Adam, you only just had surgery"
"Right, surgery" Adam said clutching his side.
"what was in that stuff?" Adam continued.
"some kind of a hallucinogen" Mac said.
"that clears a few things up then" Adam said to himself trying not to go over it all again.
"how long have I been out?" he said aloud.
"about eight hours"
"at least I got some sleep then" Adam said with a little chuckle trying not to show that this had shaken him up so bad.
"Yo, Adam" Danny said appearing in the doorway with the rest of his team.
"Hey you guy's" Adam said pushing the button on the bed to raise the bed.
"How you feeling?" Stella asked.
"Not too bad" Adam replied. To tell the honest truth he felt a million times better being around people that genuinely cared about him and most of his worry's went away.
"You up for more visitors?" Hawkes said.
"For you guys, sure, any time. Hey what you all got there?" Adam said referring to the white paper bags they were all carrying, apart from Mac, who by the looks of it, had been watching over Adam the whole time.
They all looked at each other and laughed.
Lindsey spoke up, "I think we all picked up your favourite food".
"No way. Seriously?"
"We all know how much you love your peanut butter cookies" Hawkes said.
"You guy's rule"
"We know we do" Flack said.
"How are you holding up" Stella said to Mac putting her hand onto his shoulder alerting him to the fact that she was talking to him.
"I'm fine thanks. Any news on that guy that jumped Adam?" Mac said.
"Yeah. His name is Jonathon Patrick. After a few hours of nonstop interrogation we finally got some answers out of him. Apparently he was hired, he wouldn't tell us who by as he said that they could get to him anywhere, but he was told to deliver a message to us".
"Who could be after Adam?" Danny said.
"We're clueless about that" Flack said.
"What was the message?" Mac said getting straight to the point.
"He said, that whoever hired him is not done, and apparently they want to get at you by getting your team...starting with Adam. And he said that they always get what they want".
"Adam, don't worry, we don't let anyone mess with the team and get away with it" Danny said.
"Me...worry...never..." Adam said trying his best to make light of the situation.
"It's like Christmas came early" after Adam said this they all started looking at him weird. "I meant the food" Adam continued.
After they all realised he had changed the subject they all lightened up a bit and piled the bags on his bed, not wanting Adam to freak out.
"Glad you gave up the diet" Danny said.
"Yeah" Adam said taking a mouthful of cookie, so it was barely audible.
"Any ideas when I can get out of here?" Adam said with a hopeful smile.
"The Doctors say that you can leave tomorrow as long as you come back in a week for a check up and take it easy".
"I'm sure I can manage that, but I can't guarantee I'll come back sane".
"You were never sane to start with" Hawkes said causing everyone to crack up laughing, even Mac.
Meanwhile the mastermind behind the attack was currently putting the next stages of their plan for getting rid of Adam into action. If they thought that they were done with him, then they were very wrong indeed.
More Adam whumping to come so keep reading :D
