Gideon put on sweats and crashed onto the bed. She tried to sleep, but was restless and decided to call Kenji to not only vent but see how Rei was doing. They really were like brother and sister and Gideon knew she could always count on him and vice versa.

"Gigi? How are you doing baby?"

"Better, thank you for not letting Sanada call the ambulance. How's Rei?"

"No problem, he was really worried about you. Rei is probably still pissed but she's fine."

"Kenji?"

"Gigi?"

"I think you might be right about him."

"I think I am too, you didn't see how he was holding and looking at you when you passed out."

"Holding me?"

"Yeah, you two look so...perfect together!"

"Fuck. Kenji...I don't even know how to deal with this right now. I need to talk to him."

"Agreed. He looks at you like you're more than just his assistant."

"Maybe while we're away I can get him to talk."

"Away?"

"Yeah...we leave tonight for Seoul. We'll be gone for a week."

"WHAT!! Ok... there is definitely something going on with him!"

"What are you talking about now?"

"The entire time I've been there, he's never left Japan to go anywhere."

"Seriously?"

"Seriously..."

Both sat in silence for a few minutes.

"Are you going to tell him what you are?"

"Shit! I don't know. Part of me feels like I trust him with my life, the other part doesn't know him from Adam. I think starting with a talk would be good."

"I agree."

"Thanks Kenji-kun." Gideon couldn't help but chuckle.

"Your welcome Gigi-kins."

Both laughed as they joked by calling each other their pet names and said goodbye. Gideon needed some solid trusted advice, so she called one of two people she could think of. Her Dad, if he wasn't available she'd call her uncle Sabe. Her dad picked up on the second ring.

"Hey Dad."

"Hey Gigi, How do you feel?"

"Huh?"

"Toru called and filled me in on what happened."

"Why'd he do that?"

"Cause he was worried about you dear."

"Ohh dad..."

"What is it kiddo?"

"I... shit...Ugghhhh...I think he might be my Mate dad."

"Yeah, me and Sabe talked about that last night after you guys left."

"Is it that obvious?"

"Not so much with you, well, laying your head on his shoulder didn't help, but it's pretty obvious with him. He couldn't take his eyes off of you."

"Great. Wait, how can he tell, my scent is masked!"

"We don't know. So what are you going to do?"
