Just a quick post to update story. I'll try to come back later.

Our Time Chapter 6

Spoiler:

Charise makes a poultice with the herbs that she had some men fetch for her and covers John’s wounds with it. Teyla stays vigilantly by John’s side and Charise gently places her hand on Teyla’s shoulder to comfort her.

“All we can do is wait my child,” the old woman speaks softly.

Teyla’s eyes begin to water, “Thank you all that you’ve done for him.”

“You may thank me if he comes out of this,” Charise begins. “But for now I want you to come sit and have a meal with me.”

“He will come out of this. I know he will,” states Teyla firmly.

Charise gives Teyla an apologetic nod before she coasts Teyla to sit at the dining table in the next room with her. She places a plate of savory meat and cooked root vegetables. She also warms Teyla a nice cup of tea and notices the she keeps staring at the door that leads to John’s room.

“You must have been friends for a long time to be so close,” Charise queries.

Teyla turns her attention back to Charise, “What? Oh, I am sorry. No we have only know each other for over three years, but we work very closely and he has saved my life on many occasions.”

“I see and are you both soldiers?” asks Charise.

“Yes, we are,” Teyla answers blankly as she still keeps an eye towards John’s room.

“Please eat my child. He will still be there and the sooner you finish the sooner you may return to his side,” Charise urges.

Teyla turns to her and gives her a loving smile, “You remind me a lot of someone who was very dear to me. She would be doing the same thing as you are right now. Feeding me and giving comforting, wise words.”

Teyla is almost done with her meal when she hears a loud sound coming from John’s room. She and Charise quickly go to the room and see a disoriented John stumbling out of bed.

“John, what are you doing?” Teyla yells with concern.

John looks at her with a manic expression, “I need to get out of the infirmary and to my quarters. The retrovirus is getting worse and I don’t want to hurt you again.”

He is about to cup Teyla’s face, but he looks at his hand and grabs it with the other in agony.

“John you are fine. You have been cured of that. You have a fever and you need to get back to bed,” she pleads with John.

Charise places a gentle hand on Teyla shoulder and whispers in her ear, “Pretend you are taking him to where he wants to go.”

Teyla gives her an understanding nod and slowly approaches John, “Would you like me to take you to your quarters?”

He look at her with apprehension, “No, I may harm you. Call a couple of Marines to escort me.”

“It’s ok John. Carson gave you the cure and you will get better, but it will take some time. You will not harm me,” Teyla reassures him.

She slings his arm over her shoulders and begins to walk him out of the room. They saunter from one room to another until she returns him to back to his bed.

“Here we are John. We are at your quarters,” Teyla says gently as she places him back in bed.

“I am so sorry Teyla about earlier, I didn’t mean to hurt you. It’s just that you are so beautiful and I’ve been wanting to do that so long,” He pauses. “I’m sorry I shouldn’t have said that.”

“No, it’s ok John. You did not hurt me,” she smiles at him.

She pours him a glass of water from the pitcher next to his bedside. She helps prop him up to drink it. She can see him begin to tire and she lays him back down. He closes his eyes and she strokes his hair.

“I don’t ever want to lose you Teyla,” he says sleepily.

“Do not worry John. That will never happen,” she whispers.

During the next several days, he would come in and out of consciousness until one day his fever broke. He wakes up and sees Teyla resting her head on the edge of the bed. He carefully places his hand on her cheek and admires her soft skin.

She slowly begins to wake up and see John smiling at her. She reaches up, touches his forehead and smiles when she notices his fever is gone.

“Yeah. What happened?” John asks weakly.

“You do not remember? You were attacked and poisoned by that creature.

We were not sure if you would make it,” she explains.

He looks around and sees he’s not in the cabin, “Where are we and how long?”

“We are at one of the villagers, Charise’s home. She took you in, patched you up and gave you some herbs for the poison. You have been here for a week.” she answers.

John looks surprised, “A week?” Teyla nods. “Well, I’ll have to thank her.”

Teyla helps sit up and gives him a drink, “Are you up to eating anything yet?”

“Yes, I’m starving. I have a week to catch up on,” He winks with a weak smile.

It's quite angsty for me - not quite up to Laura or MrsB's standards, but for me... yep, it's angsty.

[ruby_caspar]

OT~ Whats up stranger? Hope all is well man....

[Hope24]

Ruby OT~ I'm good, thanks man. So listen

Spoiler:

your Protect fic is just all kinds of good man. I just read and reviewed and I think you did a great justice to a growing intoleration Shep will continue to face concerning his role to play in the kids life, especially when the subject of her not returning to the team comes to play later on. Awesome work man.

Hope - Wonderful wallie!!!

Wow, thanks MrsB.

Spoiler:

I purposefully left out the bit about Teyla maybe not being on the team again because this is set before Midway, and I think that after Quarantine John thinks the issue is over and Teyla will definitely be returning - I think that that theory is proved by the look on his face in Midway when she mentions it again.

But yeah, I think if the baby stays around for even a little while John will be feeling very conflicted, and so will Teyla.

Camy made it for one of my Beya Valentine Challenges. And yes, they were all inspired by Moulin Rouge.

Very nice Icon.

The Gift I can do as well, let me see how much time I have...

Very cool caps - hope you don't mind if I use one of them for a new sig.

I don't mind at all. As long as you show off your work in the Galleria...

I am just dropping in to drop this off for you guys. I was fooling around with a program. So I hope you guys like it. I make it for Camy.
