He read the text a few times and waited about ten minutes - because surely there was something else coming.

Apparently not, he thought as he pocketed his phone and pounded down the stairs to the garage. This time of day traffic was light, and he was there within ten minutes.

"Hey," he said to the nurse at the desk, who eyed him with a long-suffering look. "Hi. I'm looking for Hadyn Novak? I'm his boyfriend."

"Oh, yeah, they've got him back there," she said. "Theresa, can you take this kid back? He's here to see the one with all the hair."

Despite himself, Elisha's lips twitched as he followed the other nurse. Kid. He wondered when you got too old to be one.

He saw Jordan first as he entered the room in the ER and something about that relieved him - at least Hadyn hadn't been alone with that man. But then his eyes went to Hadyn. "In one piece??" he said.
