Chapter 2
Adam was pacing back and forth nervously., while Chris sat still, eyes closed as they waited in the waiting room. "Adam Baby Calm down, Everything will be just fine, please sit with me" Chris murmured as Adam lingered awhile before finally sitting next to Chris, who slipped arm around Adam's shoulders, pulling him against his side.
"Chris? ..." Adam asked quietly as he laid his head in Chris's lap. Chris ran his fingers through his hair. "Yes?"
"Do you think Vince will fire me if my neck is broken?"
"Adam!" Chris hissed glaring. "Of course not! Are you crazy? Baby you're the future, you're young, you're athletic, talented, and gorgeous, baby WWF needs you" Chris finished softly kissing Adam on the forehead. "So are you ..." Adam mumbled sitting up.
"I don't wanna admit it... but I'm so fucking scared Chris" Adam mumbled dropping his head. "Does that make me weak ... because I'm scared?"
Chris cupped Adam's face, looking into his eyes. "No baby that makes you stronger, you were strong enough to admit it".
"Adam Copeland?"
"This is it" Adam thought as he and Chris both stood, walking after the doctor.
"I'm doctor Andrews I understand you're here for" he looked down his clip board. "An X-ray on your neck?"
Adam bit his lip nervously. "Mmhmm" he mumbled eye glued to the floor.
"Well then let's get ya in out then" Andrews exclaimed with a cheery smile. "Mr. ..."
"Irvine" Chris answered with a smile.
"Ah well since you're not his Family you'll have to wait in the room, while i take Mr. Copeland to get his X-ray" Doctor Andrews told Chris leading him to the room to wait.
"Okay then, Adam I'll be here when you get back kay?" Chris murmured placing a supportive hand on Adam's shoulder. "Kay" Adam mumbled trying to hold back tears, feeling as if he were about to both cry and puke at the same time as Doctor Andrews led him to the back room.
After removing his "Edge" logo choker he always wore, Adam lied down closing his eyes attempting to calm his nerves. "Okay while we wait for those to develop, you can head back to your friend" Doctor Andrews told him.
Adam grabbed his choker stumbling to the Room in which Chris was waiting in. Chris stood up when saw Adam approaching. "Hey, how did it go?" He asked pulling Adam in his arms for a hug. "They're developing" Adam mumbled squeezing his eyes tightly shut.
Chris noticed and pulled Adam close. "Baby you okay?"
"I-I f-feel like I'm gonna be s-sick" Adam mumbled swallowing hard. Chris rubbed Adam's back gently, looking around, spotting a passing nurse. "Um, Nurse, excuse me, Can you tell me where the rest room's are?"
"Um, straight down, then make two lefts" she answered with a small smile before continuing on. "Come on Adam" Chris pulled Adam up, wrapping Adam's arm around his shoulder, and his around his waist to steady him. "I'm so fucking nervous i think I'm gonna pass out Chris ..." Adam slurred eyes squeezed tightly shut as they walked down the hall.
"Hold on Adam, we're almost there." Chris murmured in his ear softly. Chris pushed the door open, walking Adam into the biggest Stall there. "We're here" He locked the stall, pulling his love's hair back.
"I think it went awa-" Adam's words were cut off as his mid section suddenly convulsed and he gagging. "Oh ... God" Adam vomited until there was literally nothing left, and he began dry heaving.
"Chris ... can you ... get ... me some ... water ... please?" Adam gasped out, struggling to talk between dry heaves. "Yeah baby, just wait right here, don't move, I'll be right back" Chris answered opening to door, leaving the bathroom, mentally berating himself for neglecting his boy.
Chris rushed down to the Hospital cafeteria, and got one from the vending machine, rushing back to the bathroom. He pushed the door open rushing to Adam's side, opening the water bottle. "Here Baby " he wrapped an arm around Adam's head, pressing the bottle to his lips. "Drink" he commanded as Adam obeyed. "Good boy" Chris forced a smile. He pressed a kiss to Adam's temple handing him the bottle. "Don't move" he stood walked out grabbing a paper towel, getting it damp with warm water, and one with cold. He walked back into the stall; locking it behind him.
Chris used the Warm one to dab Adam's face and around his mouth with, tossing it way, using the cold one to press to Adam's forehead. "Come on, we better get out before Doctor Andrews thinks we took off." Chris murmured pulling Adam to his feet, wrapping a supportive arm around his waist. "You didn't have to do that you know." Adam murmured quietly. Chris smiled. "I wanted to".
"Ah there you are, they're done, so Mr. Irvine back to the waiting Room, Mr. Copeland Follow me" Adam and Chris parted ways.
"Here they are. As it appears here, Mr. Copeland, the X - ray has confirmed that you do indeed, have a slipped or herniated disk in your neck" Doctor Andrews explained, pointing it out to Adam who felt as if he'd vomit again any moment, that or pass out.
"So... does this mean i'll never wrestle again ...?" Adam asked timidly. "Well, it's possible with surgery, 12 months rehab, depending on how surgery goes of course, you may be able too, but there's those and i'll let you yourself make the decision, as it is yours to make" Doctor Andrews explained as Adam stood, grabbing his copy of the X - Ray, walking numbly away.
"Well ... yes i know ... they're having another party, and they postponed the release date because i wasn't there, well i promise, i'll be there" Chris's said talking into his cell phone. "Yeah, well the reason i wasn't, was because Adam got hurt and ... he is not destroying my Career alright! Look i really have to go" Chris hung up as he spotted Adam. "Well?"
Adam's eyes teared up as he dropped the X - ray's on Chris's lap. "Adam I'm sorry" Chris whispered standing and pulling his lover into his arms. Adam refused to break down, only because they were in public.
Back in they're hotel he sobbed his heart out.
"Adam ... Fozzy's new Album party is tonight, they uhh yeah, postponed the album release because i wasn't there, do you mind if i go? I PROMISE i'll be back within an hour just -" Chris started but Adam interrupted him.
"Chris just Go! I ... just wanna be alone" Adam sobbed as Chris left realizing he was breaking his promise to Adam.
"This is the VERY LAST time i put my job before him, sorry Adam" Chris whispered kissing his finger tips and pressing them to the closed door, before walking away.
Hours later
Chris made his statement short and sweet, had a toast, but thinking of Adam he just couldn't seem to enjoy himself, so he headed back to the hotel. "12:06 Dammit! Late again" Chris muttered realizing he left at 9:30- something.
He unlocked the door, pushing his leather jacket off, walking in and tossing it on the chair. The lights were on, and Adam had cried himself to sleep, still in his shoes, holding the WrestleMania bear to his chest, the bear Chris gave him on Valentines Day, yeah, maybe not the greatest gift but Adam loved it. Chris smiled, striping down to his briefs, removing Adam's shoes, shirt and pants, pulling them both under the covers and holding Adam to his chest, drifting off.
