History
Born to Octavio and Lucia Stone in 1983, he was the middle child of five siblings and was born into poverty. Living on the wrong side of the tracks was rough on Adrian who spent a lot of time idolizing his friend Kirsten Thurlow. When Kirsten developed a wild streak the two became an item and wrecked havoc wherever they could. Their short and whirlwind of a relationship ended in 1997 but they still remained friends, if not distant confidants. His older siblings found themselves in and out of prison and caused their parents much emotional stress. After his relationship with Kirsten ended, Adrian became attracted to the very smart and sweet Gail Schmidt. Adrian loved spending time with Gail because he was able to escape his home life, and even helped bring Gail out of her shell. In doing so, Gail’s father began to suspect Adrian as being a bad influence on her. Their relationship seemed destined to fail as they graduated from Stone Creek High, but after a fight with Gail’s stepmother, Helen Schmidt, the two decided to skip town on Adrian’s motorcycle.

The two spent most of their time traveling from city to city until they landed in Arizona and decided to call it home. With barely a High School diploma, Adrian went to work as a mechanic at the local truck stop and encouraged Gail to continue her school where she went on to get her Pharmacy Technician license and certify herself with the state board. The two became engaged in 2000 with the help of their new friend nurse Desiree “Dizzy” Roberts. 

In late 2008 unbeknownst to Adrian, Gail was pregnant with their first child and she confided in their friend Dizzy. She had spent weeks not wanting to tell Adrian the truth since she was unsure that she had wanted to keep the baby. Especially since her mother had been emotionally unavailable to Gail as a child. One night, however, everything changed and during an altercation she lost their unborn child. This ate at Gail and she left Arizona and Adrian behind. When Adrian find Gail gone, he asked Dizzy where Gail had went but wasn’t given any specific answer. It wasn’t until 2010 that Adrian would get an answer. Mac Kern came looking for Adrian and insisted that Gail had wanted to work things out, but only if Adrian returned to Stone Creek. Unknown to Adrian, Mac was sent by Helen Schmidt, in hopes that Adrian could get Gail to flee Stone Creek once again.

Start of the Series...

Once he realized that Gail had no interest in calling for him -- and the hard truth that she had miscarried their child -- Adrian fought his hardest to make Gail fall back in love with him. After a re-imagining of their first date, Gail started to come around to rekindling their romance. This excited Adrian and he vowed to make everything right for them, even though Gail was still coping with the loss of their first child together. Not only did Adrian come back to Stone Creek to win Gail over... he was pressured to face his past and he ignited an old friendship with once lover, Kirsten Thurlow Sutton. In late 2010 he found a job as a mechanic and took up home above Alice’s Haven Cafe, much to Gail’s dismay.

In 2011 Gail revealed to Adrian that she was pregnant with their second child. When their old friend nurse Dizzy Roberts arrived in Stone Creek at the request of Gail, she revealed to the two that she had continued her schooling and was now an OB/GYN and insisted that she help with Gail’s pregnancy. This didn’t go over well with Adrian who still blamed Dizzy for her part in Gail leaving him back in Arizona.  The tension began to rise between the trio as they worked to keep Gail in good health. Adrian was working a lot and spilling his troubles to Kirsten, while Gail worried that she would miscarry once again. During the Halloween party at Alice’s Haven Cafe, Gail felt a sharp pain in her side and fainted; she was rushed to the hospital where Dizzy discovered that her friend suffered from malnutrition and Gestational Diabetes which was common in pregnancies. Although with Gail’s past miscarriage this alarmed not only Dizzy but Adrian and David as well. Dizzy insisted nobody tell Gail anything until she recovered for fear that the stress could trigger another miscarriage. After a long talk between David and Adrian, they decided it was best that Gail knew about her condition and even agreed to let her father take care of her while Adrian began work on moving them into their new home.

As the months progressed; Adrian, David and Dizzy began to develop trust between the three of them. As all three vowed to take care of Gail and to monitor her blood sugars. On New Years Eve, during the countdown Gail went into labor and gave birth to a premature baby girl that they later named Violet Monica Stone.
