Twenty Nine
Olena heard Austin scream at Adam and could only mumble to herself "This is not starting out well."
Adam held up two fingers, "Two things Austin. First, there is no need to yell. Second, I have no idea what you're talking about."
"Jesus, not you too." Austin said with an exasperated sigh. "Tim can never have anything just to himself can he?" Austin glared at Adam as he spoke.
"Dude, Austin. I don't know what your problem is but let me know and I'll try to fix it. You're going to have a stroke if you don't calm down." Adam placed a hand on Austins shoulder as he spoke.
Austin jerked away from Adams touch. "I don't what you touching me after what you've done."
"Oh my God. We're talking in circles here." Adam sighed. "What the hell did I do?"
"Look at you trying to act all innocent. Like you have no idea what I'm talking about?" Austin was barely controlling his anger.
"I DON'T know what you're talking about Austin." Adam tried not to smile. "What did I do?"
Austin rolled his eyes, "I can't believe I have to spell it out for you. YOU CHEATED ON TIM!!!"
Rob had been walking by and Olena figured they were safe because the conversation was quiet. Unfortunately, Austin screamed just as Rob got past the door.
Rob stopped in his tracks and barged through the door before Olena could stop him. "WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?"
Rob busting through the door had somehow calmed Austin a bit. He was able to speak instead of yell. "I said that Adam cheated on Tim."
Rob and Adam spoke at the same time: "He did what?" and "I did what?"
"You heard me. You cheated on Tim. And with Jenika." Austin spat out. "How could you?"
All Adam could do was cover his mouth with his hand so Austin and Rob wouldn't see him smiling. He didn't think that would calm either of them at the moment.
Austin turned to Rob, "And they even had Tim babysitting TJ while they did it."
Rob gave Adam a look of disappointment and could only shake his head. "Adam? Please tell me he's got the story wrong. Please tell me you weren't having sex with Jenika while Tim was watching TJ?"
Adam had managed to get his smile under control and was looking at the other men with a serious expression. "I wish I could tell you that Rob, but I can't. Tim was watching TJ today while I was having sex with Jenika."
Just as Adam finished speaking Chance burst through the door and lunged for him. Thankfully Rob managed to grab an arm and hold him back. "CHANCE! CALM DOWN!" Rob shouted.
Olena had given up trying to hold any of the guys out of the room. She joined them inside and shut the door.
"LET GO OF ME ROB! I WILL KILL HIM." Chance was seething with anger. "NOBODY GETS TO INTENTIONALLY HURT TIM AND GET AWAY WITH IT."
"GUYS!" Adam yelled to get everyones attention. "I need you all to calm down and then we can talk about this."
Chance was not calming down. "WHAT IS THERE TO TALK ABOUT? YOU FUCKING CHEATED ON HIM! YOU'VE LOVED HIM FOR YEARS BUT AS SOON AS YOU BECOME A COUPLE YOU CAN'T KEEP YOUR HANDS OFF HER!"
Adam calmly walked up to Chance and smacked him across the face. Chance stopped screaming and just looked at Adam in shock.
"Sorry Chance. I just needed you to stop yelling." Adam apologized. "Okay, now that everyone is quiet..."
"I'm not going to stay quiet." Chance spat out. "Tim needs to know. I have half a mind to go tell him right now."
"Great idea." Adam said enthusiastically. "Somebody go find Tim, bring him back here and we can fill him in."
The whole room fell silent, just staring at Adam until Austin finally spoke. "Uh, don't you think this is something that should be handled just between the two of you?"
"Nope. You guys are so worried about him being hurt. He's going to need his friends around." Adam managed to get out without cracking a smile. Now that everyone was calm and no longer threatening physical violence he was starting to enjoy this. "So who's going to go find Tim?"
Rob was the first to speak. "We'll all go find him. Olena you stay here with him and don't let him run off and hide." They headed out the door leaving Olena to 'babysit' Adam.
Adam immediately pulled out his phone and texted Tim:
Adam- All the guys are coming looking for you. Be prepared.
Tim- UH, why?
Adam- I guess Jenika and I were a little loud earlier.
Tim- :) Who heard you? Let me guess Austin?
Adam- Yep, now they all know and are wanting to kill me.
Tim- So you have to tell me when I get there?
Adam- Yep, how do you want to play this?
Tim- Don't know yet. Let me read their emotions first.
Adam- I'll follow your lead.
Tim- I hear them. GTG. I love you!
Adam- I love you too! SYS
Tim went back to his game so they wouldn't know he had been texting Adam. Time to put his acting skills to work.
Tim looked up from his phone as the guys got on the bus. "Woah! What the hell happened? Each one of you looks like someone ran over your favorite dog and its puppies?"
Each guy tried to speak, but nobody knew what to say. Eventually they just grabbed him up and pulled him along with them.
"Somebody want to tell me where we're going?" Tim asked. "If where you're taking me is going to make me as depressed as you guys then I don't want to go."
Chance suddenly felt like he had been punched in the gut. He couldn't take a breath and was frozen in his spot bent over with his hands on his knees. "Oh God, what are we doing?" he said quietly.
Tim realized Chance wasn't behind him anymore. He turned to see him doubled over and ran back to him. "Hey, you okay Bud?"
Chance stood straight up and pretended to stretch his leg out. "Just got a cramp in my leg all of a sudden. Guess I need to drink some more water tonight. I'm good. Keep going."
They stopped walking just outside Adam's door. Tim looked at the guys questioningly, "Why are we stopping here? Why do you all look so sad? Oh My God! Did something happen to Adam?" Tim cried. "I can't... I can't lose Adam. It'd kill me." The guys pulled Tim into a group hug.
Olena glared at Adam. "Do you hear that? How can you live with yourself?" Adam had to turn his back to Olena to hide is smile and laughter as he heard what Tim was saying outside the door. "This is going to be epic" He thought to himself as he heard the door open.
