A Family Reunion

[Merina 0]

After nearly a week of recovery, Mimi was ready to get Torate out of sickbay, so he could stop bothering everyone and demanding to be released. She knew he needed at least another week, mentally, to fully recuperate before heading back to active duty. If nothing more this week he spent in sickbay, bought her sometime to get their quarters situated with the groceries and making sure that there were more Romulan decor rather than human, since some of her angel figurines were broken during the comm siege.

 

Mimi walked into the room in sickbay where Torate had been, to see how he was doing and see if he needed any help getting dressed due to the extent of his injuries that he obtained, prior to his arrival. She stepped in and let the door to the room close. “So, my love, are happy now that you are getting out of here,” she asked.

 

“It should have been last week. Holding me hostage here has created more friction than these people will ever know. I don’t understand why au have been on their side. Did au forget au are married to me?” He pulled at the restraining field, something he’d been pushing against for the past week, feeling it’s tingly pulse rage through his veins with each strain of his muscles against it. He actually figured with enough practice and enough pressure, he’d eventually be able to even break through their lloann’na containment field.

 

Mimi released the forcefield. “Well, it was for your own good, considering the extent of your injuries. I’ve missed you. I have everything set up in our quarters in the way of decor and food for your arrival home. I have also have your personal effects crate in our closet, should you want to put some of the items out. Also, you do realize we have a lot really to talk about once we get home,” Mimi stated.

 

He wasn’t really interested in small talk with his wife. She’d been in to visit him multiple times each day, to which he tried to dismiss her idle chatter. it sounded much like what the lloann’na described as a Schultz Teacher, though he wasn’t sure what that meant, but never argued with someone replied with a muffled “whaaa, whaaa… whaaaannn whaaannn” if he discussed it with them. The only one he had a conversation with of any length was one of his former Security Technicians, ST Elder, the one he was most fond of, that is if a Rihannsu Dheno could have fondness for anyone or anything. “Just get me out of here.”

Mimi thumped one of Torate’s ears. “Really!? You should be glad I am taking you home, today. You can get dressed if you like.”

 

The point wiggled slightly, then went back to it’s standard straight up position. Since the forcefield was released, he sat up and reached over to the drawer containing his off-station clothing. He tossed them back onto the biobed, then with his toe, clamped the drawer shut, making a not-so-quiet noise. He stripped off his medical gown, and threw it over Mimi’s head.

He reached for his medical pants, pulled the string until it snapped, then pulled them off his legs, leaving him bare, except the Rihannsu boxers (or briefs?) that were standard issue for his race. He stood up next to Mimi while she pulled clothing off of herself. “Did au miss this too?” He flexed, and even though he had wounds still healing, his muscles were ripped under his taunt skin, with a very broad girth from one arm across his chest to the other arm.

 

Mimi smiled at him, “What do you think,” as she went in to kiss him.

 

He met her lips as he bent his knees enough to get to her level, and reached under her knees with one arm, then around her waist with the other.

 

As he started to lift, she backed off on the kiss, gave him a stern look and said, “Take it easy, your injuries are still healing. I should know, considering I had to help repair them.”

 

He let out a half-playful, half-disgruntled moan but let her go. He grabbed his shirt, and pulled it over his head, arms and chest. The sweatpants followed. “Good to be back in my own clothes, instead of those that all the women were staring through to see my body in sickbay.” He flexed once more, trying to get a rise out of her.

 

Mimi looked at him and smiled, “Well their not as lucky as me to have you as a husband.”

 

“Then let’s get out of here. What’s for dinner?” His own clothing now on, he headed towards the Medical Department’s exit.

 

“Hmm, let’s see. I could make lasagna, steak, or a Romulan dish.”

 

He interrupted her statement with a firm, “Ie. All of them.”

 

A bit taken back, Mimi looked at him “You definitely never lost your appetite. Plus, you’re gonna like our quarters. Three bedrooms, a workspace, a good size kitchen, and a living room,” Mimi told him.

He paused once they were outside sickbay, “We finally got full quarters”.... and continued with a silly smile, “Maybe I should send for Loxil or maybe that’s room for another wife.” He exposed a rather wide Rihannsu grin with his shifty eyebrow’s lifting.

 

“Yes, full senior officer quarters. Speaking of Loxil, where is she,” Mimi asked and continued, “plus what about visitors and maybe future children.”

 

He reached around Mimi, nearly lifting her up against his side. “Slow down… feed me first.”

 

“Alright, that I can do,” Mimi stated as she was happy that their little family was reunited.
