Chapter 4.
Less then 2 weeks later
Today was it, Today Adam was going in for his neck surgery and he was so nauseous he felt as if he'd throw up any moment. Thank God for Chris comforting him.
"Chris?" Adam sounded like a little lost boy looking for his mommy.
"Yes?" Chris asked holding Adam's hand.
"I'm scared ... Really, Really scared. Chris I can't do this, I Can't do this ..." Adam babbled on and on, before Chris cupped Adam's face, silencing him with a kiss. When he pulled slowly away his blue eyes locked on Adam's frightened green orbs.
"Adam, Baby it's Okay to be scared, you have every right to be Hun, You CAN do this, You CAN do this, You WILL do this, and you'll get better, make your return and become the Undisputed Champion, okay? Also, I'll be here along the way to guide you, no worries, I love you NO MATTER WHAT Happens" Chris spoke slowly cupping Adam's face, thumbs gently stroking his cheeks as Adam's eyes watered.
"R-really?" Adam asked as if uncertain. Chris kissed him again.
"Really" he answered pulling his younger, over zealous lover to his chest. Adam clung to Chris as if he were his lifeline.
"Adam Copeland, it's time for your Surgery prep" the nurse called as Adam turned, his hand in Chris' as he walked away. Chris and Adam held on until distance forced them to let go.
A Month later
Adam was home resting but Chris was FORCED to return to Smackdown. He growled as his eyes locked on Paul talking to Stephanie backstage. He remembered Everything Paul said to Adam, and closed his eyes.
He saw Adam's teary green orbs and his eyes shot open, feeling anger welling up inside of him, seeing red and he could no longer contain himself. He took off running and leapt on Paul punching, hitting, beating, and clawing any part of Paul's body that could get his hands on.
Stephanie screamed backing up as Paul went down. Lesner, Cena, Mysterio, Rock and several others ran to break them up. Succeeding in doing so, Stephanie glared at the seething Chris. "Jericho in my office NOW!"
"What the hell was that all about Huh?" Steph yelled as Chris stood.
"If you heard what he said to Adam -"
"Adam? Edge? How does he fit in all of ... that?"
"He's my Boyfriend" Chris growled turning around, with his back to Steph.
"Oh um Okay Go on"
"Hunter, where does he get off on saying that Adam is nothing but a sex toy to me, that fucking bastard, i should beat his fucking face in" Chris seethed as Steph realized why he was so angry. "I'm sorry Chris but you have quite the reputation you know, quite a past"
Chris spun around glaring at his boss. "A Past, a rep? Adam is different Steph! I Fucking Love Him! And if Paul Costs me Adam I swear to God I don't know what I'll do! And I'd hate to be Paul ... if he does something to cause me to lose Adam, what you saw out there will be nothing compared to what I'll do to him." he growled fists clenching and unclenching.
Stephanie took a deep breath.
"I apologize Chris, I'll have a talk with Paul but in the mean time, please avoid him"
Chris smiled coldly, leaving without another word.
