Ch. 5 Emotional Meetings

When they arrived at Andros' room he was indeed already asleep but Ajax and Bella didn't care, all they wanted was to see their little boy. Bella sat down beside the crib and carefully stroked Andros' face, making sure to avoid the bandages.

"Have they caught who did this to him?" Ajax questioned, the anger clear in his voice.

"No," Alasdair replied, "but they do have witnesses that have seen them since they left. It shouldn't be much longer."

"The wait's over," Alden stated as he entered the room. "They caught them just as they were about to leave the planet. Luckily, the person who checked their tickets realized who they were and contacted the police." Ajax and Bella shared a look of relief and then looked past Alden at their daughter. "She woke up and wanted to see her brother."

"Come here, Karone," Ajax began, picking his daughter up when she reached him. He carried her over to the crib and let her look over the railing. "That's your brother, Andros."

"He's little," she stated, looking at her brother closely. "I want to play with him."

"You can play with him when he wakes up," Bella told her.

"No, now!" Karone demanded. Andros began to wake up at the sound of raised voices and Ajax quickly quieted his daughter. Bella kept the hand she had on Andros perfectly still not wanting to scare him. His eyes opened slowly and he stiffened as he felt a hand on his stomach. He peeked through the bars, terrified that Diana and Duncan would be standing there, but instead he saw the people from the picture the doctor had given him.

"Mommy?" he questioned and Bella nodded. He looked past her and spotted Ajax and Karone. "Daddy? My sister?"

"Yes," Bella whispered. "That's your daddy and Karone."

"Rone," Andros stated. "She like me?"

"Yeah," Ajax began, stepping closer with Karone, "she likes you."

"Where Aldair?" he questioned.

"I'm right here, Andros," Alasdair stated, coming into the toddlers sight. Andros saw the cup in his hand and automatically reached for it. "This one is for your sister. Yours is on the way."

He slowly sat up and reached his arms up to Bella whispered, "Up please." She felt the tears forming in her eyes but did nothing to stop them. She picked up her baby boy and held him close to her.

"Be careful with his chest," Alasdair reminded her as she started to sit down and she nodded.

"I wanna play," Andros whined.

"You can't until you get better," Alasdair told him.

"Mommy," he started, "make me better."

"I'm sorry, sweetie," his mother replied, "but I can't do that. We'll have to wait." Just then the nurse walked into the room with Andros' drink and Bella gladly handed to her now crying son. He drank it slowly, hoping that it wouldn't put him to sleep like the others had. Unfortunately it did and within minutes Andros was once again asleep. "Will he be okay?"

"He'll be fine," Alasdair promised, helping Bella place Andros back in the crib. "He should be fine in a couple of days to go home but I would like to see him interact with each of you before he goes if it's okay with you."

"Of course," Ajax stated. "Anything to get him home."

"When I play with him?" Karone questioned.

"I'll go find you some toys and when Andros wakes up again you can both play with them," Alasdair explained and a smile spread across Karone's face. He left them alone with Andros, giving Shelly strict instructions to check in on them every ten minutes. He was almost positive they wouldn't do anything to purposely hurt Andros but after all he had been through he wasn't about to take a chance.

It wasn't long before Andros was awake again and he quickly began to play with the toys that had been placed in the crib. When Alasdair placed Karone in the crib Andros stopped playing and curled up in the corner. Alasdair had already explained to Ajax, Bella, and Alden that the best thing was to leave them alone. Slowly, Karone picked up one of the toys and offered it to her brother. Andros reached his hand out and took the toy. The smile that came across Karone's face was enough for the adults to know that they were doing the right thing. It didn't take long for Andros to sit up and make his way over to his sister so they could play together. Seeing that everything was going well the adults quietly made their way out of the room.

"That went well," Bella stated as they all made themselves comfortable in the chairs in the hallway.

"Yes, it did," Alasdair agreed. "Now, if I can just see how he interacts with you and Ajax I think sending him home will come quickly."

"How will we pull that off?" Ajax questioned. "I mean, Karone isn't going to leave him now that she got him to play with her." No one could think of an answer immediately so they decided to go back into the room. When Bella and Ajax entered the room they couldn't help but smile at the sight in front of them. Andros and Karone were curled up together fast asleep.

"I've got it!" Alden shouted in a whisper. "Karone will probably wake up first and I'll take her to get something to eat while you guys play with Andros." Bella and Ajax nodded and before long their plan was in motion.

Andros woke up fully expecting to see his sister beside him but the only people in the room were his parents.

"Where Karone go?" he asked, tears beginning to form in his eyes.

"She just went to eat," Ajax answered making his way over to the crib. "Do you want to play with me and your mommy?" Andros nodded slowly and his parents could tell that he was obviously scared. "Don't worry we won't hurt you."

Andros still didn't look convinced so Bella asked, "Would you like for Alasdair to be in here too?" Andros nodded and Ajax opened the door. Without question Alasdair entered the room and sat in one of the chairs beside the crib.

As soon as Alasdair entered the room Andros relaxed and offered a toy to both of his parents. Bella and Ajax played with their some for a little over an hour before Ajax was forced to return with their daughter.

"She wants to play with Andros," he explained as he sat her down in the crib. Much to everyone's surprise Andros didn't have any problem adjusting to playing with everyone and Alasdair knew that Andros would be more than fine when he went home.
