Thanks for all the reviews & being so patient with my attempt at Quatre POV.
Trowa must've mentioned my little attack to the others, judging by the way they were hovering over me the next morning. Luckily, Heero and Duo had a shuttle to catch, so they had to leave on time. Duo gave me a tight hug and promised to call. Heero's hug was tighter as he told me to call them if I needed anything.
Wufei and Cathy hugged me as well, promising to send the circus's schedule so that we could maybe meet up again. Wufei must've guessed, or Trowa told him what was going on, since he left Trowa to make his goodbye to me privately. Trowa put my duffle in the trunk and turned to hug me.
"I'll miss you," I said to him. "I promise we'll see each other soon."
"We will," he replied and hugged me tight. "I won't let you go so easily this time."
Sereh and the others were waiting in my office when I arrived back at work. Sereh looked immensely pleased with herself for some reason as she checked me out while Chani and the others turned me back into my normal self.
"How was your weekend little brother?" Sereh asked when they had finished and I was back at my desk. My sisters had been busy- the piles were definitely smaller.
"The best one I've had in a long time," I replied.
"You saw the other pilots, right?" I gaped at her and she laughed. "I've received several phone calls this morning, little brother. Can you guess what they were about?"
"Me?" She grinned.
"Heero Yuy called first. He asked to be sent your records and all the information I had on your spaceheart. He has some diagnostic tests he wishes to run that he thinks might help." Of course. Heero was mechanically minded- and the best at fixing the gundams. He might be able to find a solution. "His partner also got on the line and asked to be kept updated on your condition, since you always put the best spin on things." I smiled.
"Like he doesn't."
"Chang Wufei called next to suggest an eastern specialist in heart ailments. I had thought of asking Dr. Wong for help, but he doesn't approve of female doctors. Mr. Chang had already secured Dr. Wong's help for you and he also called me this morning." I shook my head in amazement and Sereh grinned.
"I can't believe..."
"Oh believe it. You thought 29 sisters were overprotective! They are nothing compared to your 4 'brothers'." Sereh was amused, that much was obvious.
"I suppose Trowa called this morning too?"
"No," Sereh grinned wider and leaned over to hit the call button on my desk. "Anna, would you please send my brother's new security team in?"
The door opened a second later. Trowa stood there, Abdul, Rashid and Auda behind him.
"Mr. Barton called me last night and informed me that your security was not up to par. I agreed with him, and as you see, we replaced them very satisfactorily." Sereh purred.
"Master Quatre!" Rashid boomed at me and came to shake my hand, Auda and Abdul a step behind him. "It is so good to be back in your service!"
"Rashid..." I looked up at him and then at Trowa. "I don't want you putting yourselves in danger..."
"Don't be ridiculous," Rashid scolded me. "Mr. Barton has told us about your old team. Do you honestly think we'd leave your safety in such poor hands?" I glanced at Trowa who hadn't moved at all.
"Trowa..." I started but he shook his head at me.
"I'll need a copy of Mr. Winner's schedule for the week," he said to Anna. "Auda and Abdul, stay in here with him this morning while Rashid and I work out a rotation and go over the building's security." Anna complied quickly. Rashid left with Trowa before I could speak again. Abdul and Auda took up their old familiar positions in the room. I looked at Sereh and my other sisters.
"Sneaky," I said to them and they giggled.
"Judith needs to go over some changes she'd like implemented soon," Sereh said to me as she brushed her lips over my cheek. "She is your first appointment this morning. I have other patients to see, so I'll be leaving."
"Thank you my sister," I thought to say before she left. She gave me an impish grin as she closed the door behind her.
