*drops in*

So I spent all day basically doing nothing. LOL I have some fic ideas brewing in my head, though, so when I get home tonight I should have another chapter of fic ready to go.

In the meantime, I leave you with this:



What are they thinking???

Oh yeah 'Lizbeth, I forgot to tell you I used up the last of your shampoo. Hope you don't mind.

He uses all my shampoo and his hair still doesn't behave. Unbelievable.

Thanks for the picture, poundpuppy! Our Sparky has such amazing hair in that scene!

But it smells good. At least that's what you've been telling me.

Drats. I didn't think he heard me.

Too tired to work on fic tonight, so I think tomorrow is devoted to that tangent. Gotta get some sleep. Completely exhausted from exercise and finishing up the painting on the new place (vaulted ceilings make me wish we had a taller ladder) and we gotta have it all done before we move on Friday. Can't wait to move! My new room is very cosy, and I'm finally getting rid of the twin bed I've had for years and getting an actual bedroom set. God, I love IKEA.

Night!

Quiet day here on the thread.

Me, I was off at the movies to see Prometheus. (In 3D, no less!) OMFG. Awesome, awesome movie. Science fiction that makes you think and work to connect all the dots, instead of spoon feeding all the answers. Definitely NOT for the squeamish, though.

Gee, and here I thought John was just innocently asking Elizabeth to dinner.

Ah, I know that feeling of satisfaction. Real grown-up furniture, at last!

Good morning all. In case anybody is interested I just found this special deal at Amazon on the boxed sets. You can't beat this price.

*iz squeamish*

Glad you had fun!

He was also telling her that her shirt got hitched up in the back and he can see the tattoo she got that one drunken night in college. Depends on your interpretation. LOL

Yay! Can't wait to get it.

Holy crap! No, you can't! *wibbles*

Good morning, Sparkies! Happy Smutty Tuesday!

That is a very good price. Just be aware of the complaints regarding the packaging. There have been a lot of returns of both DVD sets due to damaged discs.

Heehee!

Oh really, good to know. I bought each season as it came out and some of the discs are now scratched, but I don't plan to buy it again as long as it's on Netflix. In fact, we've gone from buying every movie we like to buying none. Streaming is the wave of the future I'm afraid.

Unless you're a film geek who likes watching all those behind-the-scenes extras that get included on the DVD/Blu-ray discs, but aren't streamed (as far as I know).

Hello everyone!

I'm sitting here waiting becuase in 5 minutes or so they will be showing one of the episodes of NCIS with Torri in it on TV here which I can't miss and I have to tape to keep it. I did the same with the episode of CM that she was in as well.

Hmm, I don't mind that I bought each season at Walmart and Sam's Club. For a while, they had each season of SGA at Sam's for $9.98, then it went up to $13.98. Walmart still had SGA and SG-1 at about $15 per season.

The BtS extras aren't on Netflix, so definitely good if you like that.

People ask me why I want to buy the DVDs if I can stream them on Netflix. I tell them that I like having the actual DVD with me so I can obsessively make shippy videos to post on the Internet.

I don't know why, but Netflix doesn't have NCIS. Grr ... I can always find the snippets on YouTube ...

Right now, taking care of some MoH stuff for the shower and watching "Made of Honor" for inspiration. And because Patrick Dempsey is adorable.

Chapter 20 is done. *sniffles* I'm good!

Spoiler:

Afterwards, they lay awake for the longest time.

John was spooned up against Elizabeth, holding her against him, brushing his fingertips across her hands that lay in front of her. Just when she thought he was about to fall asleep, he would lean forward and kiss the back of her neck. It was comforting, a reminder that he was still there.

Would always be there.

She wanted to turn around and talk about this, but she couldn’t summon the strength.

John seemed to sense it too. He pushed himself up a little higher and gently pulled her body around in his arms so that they could see each other, face to face.

The look in his eyes was sleepy yet content, and he smiled at her. “Get some sleep,” he said, gently pressing his lips to hers. “We’ll talk in the morning.”

She smiled against him, then rolled back over and pulled John’s arm tighter around her.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-

When the sun peaked through the blinds again, Elizabeth was laying facedown on the bed, her head sideways on the pillow, watching John as he slept. Her right arm was framing her head, and she gently pulled her head up and slid her hand underneath it, giving it more height.

“Morning,” John suddenly whispered, and she narrowed her eyes at him.

“How did you know?”

“Being off world so often, it kind of becomes habit. Especially when you wake up to a village of little people staring at you.”

She laughed, and instantly she knew that his story was a lie. He only said so to make her laugh.

And right now, she didn’t mind.

He finally opened his eyes and blinked a few times, then turned his head towards her. “Hi,” he greeted again, feigning shyness.

She pressed her face into her arm, truly feeling the same way. “Hi.”

“How’d you sleep?”

“Mmm. Wonderful.”

“That’s good,” he evenly replied. Then he frowned at her. “On a scale of one to ten, how did I do?”

She burst out laughing and buried her face in the pillow.

The smile on John’s face was disarming her, and she forgot about the elephant in the room.

He leaned over and brushed the hair away from the nape of her neck, and he pressed a kiss there, sending chills down her spine. “So,” he drew out slowly, moving his lips across her exposed shoulder, “what’s on the agenda for today?”

As his lips continued to wander, she spoke quickly, knowing that it wouldn‘t be long until the thought left her. “Umm, I have a meeting with Kerrak to help him prepare for the transition and we have one last brunch with him and Tharon and oh my God, John,” she pleaded as she rolled over in the bed, rolling her head back against the pillow.

John shifted in the bed and pressed one knee in between hers as she wrapped her hands around his head and pulled him down. Instead of meeting her lips, he angled his head and kissed, then sucked, at that one spot at the juncture of her neck and shoulders that sent her arching into the bed every time.

“John,” she whispered, threading her fingers through his hair.

He pulled his head up, but the goofy grin was gone. “Yeah,” he replied in a resigned tone.

Elizabeth frowned at him, then chuckled. “I didn’t say stop.”

“I know,” he replied, leaning sideways on his right elbow and running a hand through his hair. “That was me.”

“Why?” she asked as his eyes darted around the room.

He sighed, then looked back at her. “We’re gonna have to talk about this, at some point.”

Elizabeth closed her eyes, and ran a hand over her face. “I know,” she admitted, rubbing the back of her neck nervously.

She didn’t like the tension that had suddenly crept back into the room. So she turned on her side and sprawled a hand across his chest. “Let’s finish doing our best to help Tharon and Kerrak, and then we’ll talk about this when we get home.” She tilted her head to the side, then brought her green eyes back to look John in the eye. “We will figure this out.”

He narrowed his eyes at her doubtingly. “You sure? Because when I first brought this up, you wanted to--”

Elizabeth pressed a slim finger against his lips. “I’m sure,” she answered, replacing her finger with her lips.

She felt him smile and she pulled her head back, resting it on his shoulder while he let out a sigh of relief. After everything that they had been through, everything that she had finally let herself feel, it was impossible to just leave this newfound relationship on Fa’tor and pretend it never happened.

“John?”

“Hmm?”

She paused for a moment, then looked up at him and said it. “I love you.”

John craned his head and looked back at her, lips parted in shock.

Elizabeth smiled back at him, ensuring that she was sincere. “I’ve always liked you. But somewhere along the way,” she told him, “I started to love you.”

He still didn’t say anything, but he pressed his lips together and sat up a little more against the pillow.

She shrugged lightly. “I just thought you should know that.”

He leaned forward and captured her lips again, and she smiled.

Especially when he replied, “Love you too, ‘Lizabeth.”

Don't you dare run. That was wonderful, and I just know they'll work it out so they can be together.
