John has always been himself around Teyla - no light banter and cracking jokes as he does with Weir and the others. They only get to see whats on the surface but Teyla manages to get John to open up and reveal the real John Sheppard. The guy behind the cool flyboy image. This is what I love about them - there are no pretenses between them.
I believe that the feelings they have for one another run deep and both have guarded their emotions and kept them in check probably most of their lives, so it's not easy opening up and letting "feelings" out. But it has started to occur and I think we will see more of it in the future. They would do anything for each other, and when one of them is in danger this is when they are at their most vunerable. Will John's mask slip completely the next time Teyla gets hurt, or will it be Teyla who reveals something to John, if she finds herself in the position of nearly loosing him again -
