She was such an arrogant bitch but he had missed her. Alex Ramsey the head chef of Atlantis had been home on Earth for a few weeks and life in the mess hall hadn't been the same, he'd missed the sound of her voice swearing at some poor unfortunate Marine that had cheeked her. He had missed the way she would stride down the hallway as if she owned the place; he missed her Beef Stroganoff as she had recently started to make it without lemon juice especially for him. He missed her chocolate chip cookies a lot; she had made some for him when he had been stuck in sickbay after he had been bitten by some kind of insect. They had been sworn enemies when she'd first arrived a year ago, she'd refused to be cowed by him and could give him a taste of his own medicine in tantrum throwing but after a while, he'd grudgingly accepted she was good at what she did. Now he was eagerly awaiting her return, John Sheppard had teased him over it saying that deep down he had the hots for her, he'd vehemently denied it and said that Mick was not as competent a chef as she was. The Daedalus landed fifteen minutes ago if he timed it right he'd 'accidentally' come across her about...
"Hi Rodders" said Alex
"Oh hi, you're back then" he replied
"Miss me?" she said with a grin. Yes, yes, yes his heart replied.
"Well, you know, Mick's cooking is nowhere near as good as yours" he remarked nonchalantly
"Rodney if I didn't know you any better I'd swear that was a compliment," she said
"If you tell anyone I'll deny it," he said with a smile. They reached her quarters and he looked both ways to see if anyone was watching him
"Come in if you're coming" she said, Rodney grinned to himself, 'To hell with Atlantis' he thought
"I thought you'd never ask," He said as he grabbed her and kissed her passionately "you've know idea how much I've missed you, it's been hell"
"So I take it no-one' guessed yet" she replied
"Nope, this is the longest any relationship has been kept secret on Atlantis" he replied as he pushed her back towards the bed
"Take it easy will you, I've got Hyperspace lag" she said
"Just shut up and take your clothes off" he replied.
