Going Home

In the bathroom, with the door closed. I sit down on the bench slowly. Honey , will you please help me out of these clothes. My shoulder is killing me.

T'lana helps me out of your clothes, and bathes me. Not saying a word.

I understand why you did what you did. But if any of those friends of yours get caught and rats you out The Feddies will be coming after you.

There are things I will never tell about who I was. I am well protected with the people that I was once attached to.

I hope so OUCH GOD THAT HURTS!...I have to know that you forgive me.

Its Not that easy honey.I love you. Of course I forgive you but this just may put us at an even greater risk.

If you want me to leave and go into the mountains I will. Or I will rejoin those who saved my life years ago. Not unless I go with you.

When we get back I think I'd better go to the hospital for this shoulder. Ezri cant help me she is exhausted from fixing Kira. What about us, Jar'an?

Ezri , exhausted herself fixing Kira. She has been sleeping since she came back in me. Good thing too she would have wiged out seeing Kira Greive like that. I thought I was going to loose it myself. Poor Nowell was part mine too.

As for us. You are my lovely wife. My glorious mother to our children. I love you. I would die for you. No one is ever going to take you away from me. I love you so much, what I did was for the life's of our family. I know my love but please talk to me before doing anything like that again. Crying, I will talk to you before I every make a judgement call like that again. Holding her close I kissed her with so much passion.

Honey lets clean this. It looks like its bleeding again. Pull the bandage off lets see what this look like. T'lana takes the bandage off and looks at your wound.

EEEEWWW! So much for Bajorian medicine. There should be a Trill Medical kit in my bag over there. Just then the door chimed.

I streatched out with my mind to see who it was. Its Kira. Honey please let her in. I'll cover up. She can also help you fix this mess.T'lana said, Kira, its all right come in Kira please. T'lana gets the trill medical bag and comes back to me. Looking around the room Kira steps over to the bathroom but stands off to the side. She asks is it ok to come in? T'lana grabbed her robe.

Its ok now come on in. Kira edges around the door and sees the mess Poor T'lana is trying to fix. Holy shit! That looks like it hurts. Here honey let me help.

This is really bad baby, takes out the regenerator and begins to heal your wound and clean up the mess. Kira gave me a shot for the pain. Her and T'lana went to work cleaning the wound back out. Snickering in between grimaces I said you have seen more than your share of battle wounds.

Kira shot me a sideways look. Snickering, Not the first time I had to put you back together. Remember when you shot yourself in the leg? HEY! That phaser was busted.

I never should have picked it up. Kira said Yea, Ok, That's how you want to remember it. T'lana cracked up. Red faced with embarrassment. I said I seem to remember you having extra fun fixing that wound too. You just wanted to get me out of my pants. Kira laughed. Hell that part was easy you burned off one pants leg already.

T'lana didn't appreciate the banter. Shall I leave you too alone, so you can talk, I do have children to take care of. T'lana, You are my wife. Your place is here by my side. The children are fine. And from what I'm feeling Kira here is allot better too.

Sorry I feel something different. T'lana gets up and leaves. Heads out to the other room for peace and quiet. Kira Gently held her hand. T'lana, please stay. Crying the biggest tears we ever saw Kira said you did all that. Went through all this for me. How can I ever repay you?

T'lana said I just need some air. Let's go and leaves you too to talk and disappears outside for awhile. She went to the bed and sat, thinking about my life and what mother keeps telling me. Wonders if I did the right thing in calling my friends to take out the evil that keeps following us.

With T'lana gone, I asked how are you really feeling? Kira took a deep breath. I feel like a ton of weight is off my shoulders. Grinning wickedly at my wet towel covering my manhood. Also like crawling in that tub with you and reliving some old memories. Honey, you know we cant. Kira said I know, I know. And when that knuckle headed Odo gets home I'm going to drown his sorry ass in our tub.

Laughing out loud, Ouch that still hurts. That's the Kira I remembered. Trust me. When he comes back before he gets to see you. He is going to get an ear full from me. I want all this bull-shit jealousy dealt with. We all know each other inside and out. Granted, some of us more than others but that's no excuse to say something like that.

Kira, I do love you I always will. Your happiness means allot to me. We will always be connected between our memories and the children we have. Swallowing hard and crying, and the one we lost. Kira hugged me tight. She said I tell you what later after we have all settled back at home, lets open that box together ok?

I said Id like that. Kira turned back to the door. T'lana you can come in now he is all patched up. Kira looked back at me. I'd ware that sling for a couple weeks and rest that arm. I am not sure I should, you want to spend time together and I understand that. I will stay out here watching the stars pass by. Jar'el chimmed in, Mommy don't be mad at daddy he loves you.

Kira turned and looked at me. You see she is jealous. Will you please go out there and have a girl to girl talk with her? I'm tired and I think I'll just stay here and soak.

Kira gets up and goes out into the bedroom to talk to T'lana. Honey, something is bothering you and I think I know what it is. Please talk to me. I swear, I would never do anything, that would hurt you or Jar'an. You both showed me how much you loved me doing all this. I love you too, so please talk to me.

T'lana wiped some teras from her face. Kira, I know you are close to my husband and I do understand you too have a history together. Crying ,I am so confused on what to do or say.

Kira sat down and hugged T'lana. She put her arms around T'lana. Hey sister, He is yours. We had our fun. That's in the past. Sure we needle, and tease each other. I promise I will try not to do that any more. I would never try to take him away from you. Link with me for a minute. See what my mind sees. Feel me, my love. That man loves you with all his heart. Look at my memory and see what he said just a little while ago.

T'lana said, I can see with out linking to your mind, if I even tried right now. I am too weak sister and too tired. I love my family and would give my life for you all.

Kira asked when was the last time you and him ate anything?

T'lana said, I have not eaten in 4 days. Holy shit woman! You can't keep pushing yourself like that. Your husband and kids need you. I'm going to fix that. You get up and get your spotted ass back in there and be with your husband.

I am too weak and tired to move anymore. Sorry kira. T'lana lays back down on the bed. Kira gets up and goes back in the bathroom to me. Kira starts rifling through the med kit. I ask what's wrong? She needs a multi vitamin shot. Here it is. Be right back. She walks back in and gives T'lana the shot. You rest now ok? I'll help Jar'an get out of the tub.

T'lana asked, Jar'an, will he be all right? Kira said Of course he will be ok.

Walking back to me she redials the hypo. And gives me a shot. I asked what is that for. Kira said, I just heard from your wife that you two haven't eaten anything for days. She needs to eat to be strong for her baby and you. You need to eat to be strong for your family and to heal.

Sleeping on the bed under the covers, T'lana stirs and wakes to a bad dream. Screams Jar'an!

I holler back, I'm here baby. Be there in just a second. Kira please hand me my robe. Thank you. Scooping her arm under my injured arm and around my back, she helps me stand up so I can dry off. I put my robe on and climb out of the tub and walk over to T'lana. It's ok honey. It's just a bad dream. Next thing I knew Kira was shoving two bowls of fruit in our faces saying .."EAT"

T'lana looked sick. She said, I am not hungry. I'm just tired.

Come on honey. Try to eat something. You will feel better. T'lana rolls over and buries her face in the pillows, Jar'el chimes in, mommy sick daddy. help mommy.

Addressing Kira, thank you for the food. Kira please hand me the hypo and the medical scanner. Scanning T'lana, No wonder Her enzyme count is way too high. Dialing the hypo. Come here honey. I gave her the shot. There you will feel better in a little while. Kira scans me. Your enzyme level is extremely low. She adjusted the hypo and gave me a shot. Here you two get some sleep. I'll tell Mira to take care of Jar'el.

A little later, T'lana wakes up and looks over and sees you sound asleep next to me,with your arms wrapped around me. She whispers in my ear, I love you so much.
