Chakotay had been on the bridge for just over 23 hours he was tired and worried. Kathryn had been ordered off duty for emotional reasons by the doctor and he was worried about her as well. Chakotay got up and walked over to the turbo lift

"Tuvok you have the bridge"

"Aye sir"

As Chakotay stepped inside the turbo lift he asked

"Computer where is Kathryn Janeway?"

"Kathryn Janeway is in her quarters"

"Right then deck 2"

As soon as the doors opened he made his way to his and Kathryn's quarters. He walked in quietly and heard music coming from Taya's room he walked over to it, Kathryn was sitting on Taya's bed looking at the holo-graphs of Taya

"Kath"

Kathryn jumped and dropped the book of holo-graphs

"Chakotay you scared me"

"Sorry" Chakotay bent down to help pick up the holo-graphs "I thought the doctor told you to get some sleep?"

"I couldn't get to sleep I did once but I had a nightmare and woke up screaming"

"Oh Kathryn you should have sent a message to the bridge and told me"

"No you were busy looking for Taya"

Chakotay sighed then listened to the music

"Taya's music selection, the one she listens to in the morning"

Kathryn nodded

"Normally I have to tell her to turn in down and stop singing along to it but today I would give anything to see her dancing and singing"

"You will see her sing and dance again when we get her back"

Kathryn nodded "I just hope she doesn't do anything stupid"

"Like what? She is a Janeway, Janeways don't do stupid things, I should know I have had one as my wife for 15 years"

"I know this species they aren't like the aliens cartoons she watches with Tom on a Saturday, they won't use restraint because she's a child they will kill her"

Chakotay got up angrily

"Spirits you think I don't know that, I have been stuck in this dammed quadrant for 17 years I think I know about most of the species here"

"Sorry I didn't mean to sound like that I'm just …. I'm just worried"

Chakotay sat down and put his arm around her

"Of course you are, so am I"

"Forgiven?"

"Yes i forgive you" chakotay answered hugging her

"Good, Will you help me the put the holo-graphs back?"

"Sure" Chakotay picked up a holo-graph and looked at it "This was when she was 3, do you remember she tried to get B'elanna to take her to Gre'Thor with her"

"Yea I remember she even learnt a little about Klingon mythology"

Chakotay smiled and picked up another one

"And here is when she was 5 your delightful godson Q took her teddy, she ran over to him and hit him"

"And you say Janeways don't do silly things"

"It worked, she got her teddy back"

Kathryn smiled

"It did, well that's all of them"

"Come on, I think we could both do with some sleep"

"Will you be there if I have a nightmare?"

"I will be right next to you"

"And you will wake me up if you hear anything about Taya?"

"Yes"

"Ok then" Kathryn yawned and put the box of holo-graphs away and walked in to the bedroom.
