Chance woke up about thirty minutes before his alarm clock was set to go off. He smiles as he looks around at the sleeping angel snuggled next to him.

He cuts his alarm off and carefully slips out of bed. After starting a pot of coffee, he gathers the ingredients from the refrigerator to make ham and cheese omelets.

He was unable to wipe the smile from his face. Thoughts of last night flooded his mind. That was the best d*mn blowjob that he had ever had. Tim was full of surprises.

"Did the alarm go off?" Tim asks in a sleepy voice as he sits up and rubs his eyes.

"No, Sweetheart. I woke up a little early so I thought I'd fix us breakfast." Chance answers, glancing over his shoulder. "I kinda figured you might be getting tired of Rob's cooking." He chuckles.

"What are you making?" Tim asks as he walks up beside his lover.

"Omelets." Chance answers.

"I've never had omelets before. They look good." Tim says as he watches Chance cook.

"Rob never makes omelets?" Chance asks as he fixes them a plate.

"No, his is always the typical breakfast like eggs, sausage or bacon, hash browns, toast with jelly and sometimes biscuits and gravy or pancakes." Tim says as he fixes himself a cup of coffee then goes to sit down at the table. "But it's always good."

"I think Tina is wanting to meet with all you guys this morning. She has some news that I think everyone is going to like." Chance says as he sets their plates on the table.

"What kind of news?" Tim asks as he takes a bite of his breakfast. "Mmm, this good."

"Thank you." Chance smiles as he leans over and kisses Tim's cheek. "I can't tell you, it will spoil her surprise."

"Then why did you bring it up if you weren't planning on telling me?" Tim asks with a raised brow.

"Oh, sassy this morning, aren't we." Chance chuckles.

"Thank you for breakfast." Tim says as they finish their meal. "It was really good."

"Thank you for last night." Chance says with a smile as he watches Tim get dressed. "It was awesome."

"Anytime." Tim says with a shy smile. "I need to go. I don't want to get caught."

"Yeah, I need to take a quick shower and then get to work. But I'll see you at that meeting." Chance says as he walks Tim to the door.

"You're not gonna give me any hints?" Tim asks turning around to face his lover as they stand in the doorway of his apartment.

"Nope." Chance smiles as he kisses Tim softly. "But you're going to love it."

"I'll be the judge of that." Tim sasses before turning and heading down the hall. Chance chuckles shaking his head as he closes the door.

"Oh, good morning, Timmy." Nate says as he peeks out of his apartment. "I thought I heard voices out here."

"Yeah, I was just leaving before I get in trouble." Tim says. "Chance fixed me omelets for breakfast."

"Really? And I wasn't invited?" Nate asks with a smile.

"No." Tim answers before continuing to the stairwell.

After making sure the coast was clear, Tim slips out into the hallway and tiptoes quietly to his room. He takes a shower and gets dressed for the day. Slipping on his jacket, he reaches for his camera that he had left on his dresser but it wasn't there.

Frantically, he begins to search his room. His camera was nowhere to be found.

Panicking, he runs out into the hall and sees Jenika walking up the hallway.

"Jenika!" He calls out to her as she gets closer. "My camera is gone! Someone stole it!"

"What? Are you sure?" The blonde asks as she follows him back into his room. "Maybe you just misplaced it, Sweetie."

"I DON'T misplace my camera." Tim says as tears fill his eyes. "I left it right here on my dresser."

"Well, when was the last time you had it?" Jenika asks as she begins to help him search his room.

"Yesterday. I put it right here before......" Tim pauses and takes a deep breath to calm himself. "Before I went up to see Chance." He finishes in a quieter voice.

"We'll find it, okay? It's gotta be in this hospital somewhere." Jenika reassures the brunette as she brushes his hair behind his ear. "But right now, we have to get everyone in the cafeteria for a meeting.

"Chance gave me that camera." Tim says softly as he quickly wipes the tears that were rolling down his cheek. "You think he'll be mad at me?"

"Of course not, Sweetheart. Chance loves you very much." She says in a soft whisper. "Stop the tears, okay? We'll find it."

Tim walks slowly into the cafeteria and heads over to the table where Avi, Adam, Austin and Daryl were sitting. The four men share a glance when they notice Tim's red swollen eyes.

"Is something wrong?" Daryl asks in a concerned voice as Tim sits down next to him.

"Someone stole my camera." Tim says, his voice breaking with emotion.

"WHAT??!!" Adam yells out but Tim quickly hushes him. 

"Why in the hell would someone do that? Everyone knows what that camera means to you." Avi says in a low voice.

"Are you sure you just forgot it somewhere? Maybe you left it at Chance's apartment." Austin whispers.

"No, I took it out of my pocket and left it on my dresser before I went up there last night." Tim says. "I came back to my room this morning and it's gone."

"Can I have everyone's attention, please." Tina says as she walks into the room.

"THAT REALLY PISSES ME OFF!" Adam blurts loudly, slamming his fist on the table.

"SHHHHH!!" The guys at the table try to quieten him.

"Adam?" Tina says with a slight giggle. "Can we discuss that after what I have to say?"

"Sorry, Ms. Tina." Adam says as he hangs his head.

Tina begins telling the patients about the field trips that she had made arrangements for. Chance and the other employees were lined against the wall behind her. Chance kept eyeing Tim and the others. There was a look of sadness on his lover's face but a look of anger on the other guys' faces. What in the hell was going on? 

Jenika had not had time to tell any of the others about Tim's camera being taken. She knew in her heart that he did not misplace it. It meant too much to him.

"I just want everyone to know that if you do something that calls for a punishment that you will not get to go on any of the trips. Any questions?" Tina asks as she finishes her announcement. Patients begin to raise their hands to ask questions about the field trips. She took the time to answer each one, no matter how silly the question was. "Anyone else has something they would like to say?"

Tim slowly looks up and meets Jenika's eyes. She gives him a 'go ahead' nod. He takes a deep breath before shyly raising his hand.

"Timmy? You have a question?" Tina asks with a smile.

"Uh, no, mam." Tim answers quietly looking up at her. "I just wanted you to know that someone went into my room while I was gone and stole my camera." A tear escapes and rolls down his cheek.

"WHAT??!!" Tina and Chance yell out in unison.

"I'm sorry, Chance." Tim says with a sob. "Please, don't be mad."

"Aww, Sweetie, I'm not mad. I'm just shocked that someone would do such a horrible thing." Chance says.

Daryl reaches over and rubs the crying man on the back. Chance walks over and stoops down beside Tim taking him by the hand.

"We'll find your camera, Baby." He whispers softly as he gently squeezes his lover's hand.

"SEE?! THAT'S WHY I WAS PISSED OFF!!" Adam shouts. "WHY IN THE HELL WOULD SOME SORRY SACK OF SH*T STOOP SO LOW AS TO STEAL PHOTOGRAPH'S CAMERA!!??"

"Adam, buddy, calm down." Nate says as he tries to hide his smile.

One by one, several other patients raise their hands to say that they too have things missing from their rooms.

"Rest assured that we will find the stolen items and who this thief is. After breakfast, everyone is to go back to their rooms. Nate, Chance, Jenika, Olena and myself will personally search each room." Tina says. "Whoever this thief is WILL get dismissed from this hospital. I won't stand for it!"

The employees start to go around the room making notes of the items that were missing. With everyone preoccupied, no one notices the patient slipping out of the cafeteria.
