Hoped you did too!

I had a lot of caffeine so the story is on hyper drive!!!

Solomon: I'm hoping I'm going to be doing something about Hagi.

CSOH: Solomon... (Sigh) You really just need to relax. Hagi isn't that bad.

Hagi:(coming out of Saya's room) She's right you know.

CSOH: (angrily starring at Saya's room door) LUCKY!

Chapter 3: Sol Gets Protective

Solomon walked into the condo at eight in the morning. The hospital was getting ridiculous with its need for him to be there all night. Saya was on the couch fast asleep and the stereo was on. He went and turned it off and carried Saya towards the bedroom.

"Hagi..." Solomon stopped as he heard Saya mumble into his shirt. Was she starting to remember Hagi? How long did he have left before she ran to Okinawa. He lay Saya into bed and went to the kitchen. He was going to take the next few weeks off. If she was remembering, then he needed to be there to keep her with him. After arguing with the hospital and agreeing on only the next two weeks off, he sat down and started to watch TV.

"Morning Sol how was work?" Saya walked over to the couch to stand in front of him.

"The usual, everyone was running around like their heads had been cut off." Saya laughed as she headed to get some food. She was tired still as she came back out and started to watch the TV show. He watched Saya as she ate and thought about it. "She seems to be the same as when I left."

"Something wrong?" Solomon looked down as Saya gazed curiously at him.

"No, not really. I guess I'm just glad to have some company that isn't yelling at me. I swear, I still hear all the nurses yelling about all the problems of running a hospital at-" Solomon broke off as Saya turned her attention back to the television. It was her lack of attention that stopped his sentence, but the commercial. A cello commercial... "Umm... Saya? Did you go anywhere while I was at work?" Saya looked back at him with a frown.

"No... why? Was I suppose to go somewhere important?"

"No, of course not. I would never have you out at night with all the dangers of a city." Saya turned away as he thought about it. "It could be just a coincidence that she was interested." Solomon shook his head as he turned off the TV. "Saya, what would you like to do today?"

"You mean besides the twenty questions and the ten second glimpse of my TV show... Hmm I don't know."

"You know I was only curious."

"Curiosity killed the cat and I have to say you are looking a bit pale." Saya got up and went into the kitchen with him trailing after.

"Saya. I am going to take some time off. We can do whatever YOU want all you have to do is tell me. What do you want to do?" Saya set her dishes in the sink and ran a hand threw her hair.

"I... I don't know..." Saya turned and starred at Solomon. "Did you use to play a string instrument?" Solomon's blood ran cold. She was remembering something.

"I used to play violin a really long time ago. Do you want to learn how to play a certain instrument." "As long as it's not cello. Please don't say cello," Solomon thought as Saya stood there.

"Nope. That one sting instrument commercial earlier just made me think I had remembered something. Anyway how about we go shopping. I hear there is a sale going on and the new winter gear is out today." Solomon relaxed as he agreed and Saya ran to get ready to go out. Solomon went over and put on his shoes. It wouldn't be too long until she remembered something like a name or face or... him. Solomon needed something to counter the red shield and her family... Maybe he could say they all were killed... Yeah they all ended up in a terrible accident on one of their ships. Solomon grinned as Saya walked into the living room.

"Hey... Are you alright?" Solomon grasped Saya into a deep embrace.

"I was just thinking how lucky I am to have you with me." "And know that your chevalier is far away and would never search for you here." This thought made him loosen his embrace as Saya squirmed to escape.

"You obviously need to get out more often. And you want to take time off to be here in this house all day and night with only me to talk to..." Saya shook her head and opened the door. She started to exit when all of the sudden she bent down.

"Aw... Someone left this flower here..." A pink rose was in her hand as she looked around the courtyard. Hagi was back... Solomon grabbed Saya and thrust the door shut. Saya frowned as Solomon bolted the door and checked the windows. "SOLOMON WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU TODAY!" He stopped as he tried to think up an excuse for Saya.

"Um... That rose is a... um..." He grabbed Saya's hand and sat her down on the couch and sat in front of her on the table. "You see there was this guy you used to know... He was... obsessive about you and it got to the point that he tried to kill your family and you. I managed to get you away, but he killed the rest of your family..." Saya was upset. It was working... "Saya, I didn't want to tell you right away because I knew that you would be scared and upset." Saya collapsed into his arms.

"OH SOL!" She sobbed for a long time while he held onto her. After a while she drew back, "So are we going to be staying inside for a while..."

"I'll get a transfer and we'll move somewhere else. I won't let him hurt you ever again. You mean the world to me." Saya held him close before giving him a kiss and getting up.

"I'm tired... I... I'm going to bed."

"Of course. I understand completely." Saya turned and went into the bedroom. Solomon turned and relaxed onto the sofa. "You just try and get her now Hagi," he thought. "She won't even listen to a word you say after your little flower giving stunt," and with that he leaned back and listened to Saya's sobs.
