Elf: You'll just have to wait and see.
Labor of Love Part 1:
John wakes up and starts another morning’s routine of preparing himself for seeing Teyla. He hadn’t been completely ignoring her, but seeing her getting bigger and bigger during her pregnancy was like torture to him. He remained civil to her, but he decided it was best not to hang out with her as often as he use to. Before he is about to walk out of his door he takes a deep breath and exhales long. He knows he has to pass by her quarters and he may even have to see her in the corridor. He thinks to himself, “Ok. I’m ready. Once I’m in the corridor I’ll just walk quickly pass Teyla’s room. Just like I’ve been doing for the past six and a half months.”
As he's about to walk by her quarters he notices that Teyla is doubled over and breathing heavily. John bends down to her level. “Teyla? Are you alright?” asks John with great concern.
She looks up with pain in her eyes and shakes her head no. “I think it’s time. The baby is coming,” she replies with a groaning tone.
John’s eyes widens with fear, “Why didn’t you use your comm. to get a medical team here?”
“I couldn’t find it and I thought I could make it on my own,” she answers with her teeth clenched. John calls for Keller to send a medical team and stands by Teyla not knowing what to do.
Part 2:
Teyla’s contractions subside for the moment. She grabs John’s hand and thanks him for helping her. He forces a reassuring smile and says nothing. Keller finally shows up with her medical team and a gurney.
John looks at Keller, “Ok then. She’s in your hands now. Let me know when it’s ok for us to visit. I’m sure some people would like to see Teyla and her new baby.” He forces another smile at Teyla and is about talk away.
“John. Please don’t leave me. I’m scared. I can’t do this myself,” pleads Teyla.
John looks at Keller, hoping she will give him a way out, but no such luck. John returns his look at Teyla and he can’t resist her sorrowful eyes. He wants to say no, but instead tells her yes.
“Well, now that’s all settled, let’s get you to the infirmary,” smiles Keller.
As they wheel Teyla to the infirmary, Teyla reaches to hold John’s hand again and squeezing quite hard every time she had another contraction. Teyla finally notices John’s contorted face and apologizes.
“That’s ok, as long as you don’t break any bone,” smiles John.
Teyla returns a small smile. She mouths the words, “thank you” as a tear trails down her face. “I am so honored that you are in my life, John Sheppard.”
Ok, I took my little break. I guess it's back to work LOL
