He
couldn't believe it, General Laundry had put them in the same room
for the night
"She's an alien, who has less than the best
intentions, I don't want her in any situation where she will be in
contact with civilians without security clearance." he had told
Daniel sharply.
Which had meant that Daniel had the pleasure of
sharing a room with her while they were in DC for the hearing, 'At
least it was a twin' he thought.
Vala walked out of the
bathroom wrapped in a flimsy towel, probably the smallest one that
was in there and swayed over to him placing her hand on his
chest.
"Daniel" she purred
"No."
"Daniel"
she repeated
"No"
"But I haven't said anything
yet?"
"I don't care, whatever it is the answer is
no."
"You sure?" she asked him seductively
"Yes."
he said firmly, eyes wide at her
"Ok." she said as she
began to unwrap the towel around from herself.
"Vala, what
are you doing?" he nearly yelled
"You said no."
"Exactly
no"
"Well I was going to ask if you minded if I slept
naked and as you don't..."
"Yes I do mind."
"But
you said no."
"Well I didn't know what you were talking
about."
"You said no to whatever the question
was."
"Well I was wrong."
"Daniel Jackson,
wrong...never." she said sarcastically
"I'm going to the
bathroom, when I get back I expect you to be suitably attired
"Yes
sir." she said, whilst doing a mock salute she had learned from
watching the airmen around the base.
Daniel walked into the
bathroom and started the shower 'Oh dear god, a whole night with
her hitting on me, I'm not sure we are both going to make it out
alive, maybe I could sleep in here, not a lot of room but at least
there's a lock on the door.'
Then Daniel remembered the reason
he had to share a room with her, if he wasn't in there she would
sneak off somewhere and make trouble, he was beginning to think this
was punishment from Laundry for recommending that she was let through
the gate to begin with.
After his shower he wrapped a towel
around his waist and was happy to see that Vala had changed into the
pajamas if you really call them pajamas, at least they covered some
parts of her body.
She let out a low whistle when she saw Daniel
only wrapped in the towel and sat up on her bed on all fours looking
like she was watching her prey ready to pounce the moment he was
distracted.
"Vala please turn around so I can get
changed."
Vala gave him one last good look over before
turning around, although happily seeing that she could see his
reflection in the television set next to her bed, her grin widen as
she sat comfortably on her bed for the show.
She had to admit
she was impressed he had a great body and although she didn't get to
see the most important part from her angle she had seen enough to
give her pleasant dreams that evening.
"You can turn around
now." Daniel said as he had finished putting on a pair of boxers
and a white vest
Vala gave him a huge grin as she turned around
and blew him a kiss
"I'm going to read for a while, why don't
you see if there is something on TV you want to watch."
He
said hoping something would capture her attention enough for her to
leave him alone.
Vala turned to the TV set and flipped through
the channels, she had become quite a channel surfer in her short time
on earth, Teal'c had taught her about television and its variety of
channels one day when he was trying to relieve his friend Daniel
Jackson from her for a few hours.
She stopped surfing when she
came across a program she recognised as "Sex and the City"
one of the shows she had liked and made Teal'c sit through.
Daniel
was glad that her attention was drawn away from him and he could read
the latest paper he had received. He still tried to read the
archeological papers that were written in the world outside the SGC,
he was always looking for any
pieces of information or findings
that have been misinterpreted and could be important to the
SGC.
Vala's program finished and she was getting bored and
decided to turn her attention back to Daniel, as he was far more
interesting than the television.
"Daniel" she half
whimpered, half whispered.
"What?" he said not lifting
his eyes up from the paper
"What ya doing?" she said
leaving her bed and moving to sit on his.
"Reading." he
replied briskly
"Can I help?"
"I am capable of
reading, thank you." he replied rather rudely
"But I'm
bored."
"Then go to sleep."
"I'm not
tired."
"Watch TV."
"I'm bored of it."
"Do
anything, just leave me alone."
"Ok, she said putting on
her stilettos and heading for the door."
"Where are you
going?" he said getting up and walking to the door
"You
said do anything."
"In the room."
"You
weren't specific."
"You know you're not allowed out of
this room." he said his patience flying out the window.
"Well
I'm bored and you're being no fun." she said stomping her
foot
Daniel's dropped his head into his hands
"Vala would
you please just sit down, be quiet and let me read." he
pleaded
Vala saw how frustrated he was and decided to be nice to
him this once
"As you asked so nicely sweetie." she said
as she ran a hand over his torso on her way back to her bed.
"Ooooo,
Oooo, can I call room service?" she asked excited
"What
for?"
"Food, I'm hungry, and as I'm not allowed to
leave the room without you, and your so busy reading, and I don't
want to starve.."
"Alright, alright" he cut her
off, "order whatever you want."
Vala picked up the phone
and got through to the desk.
"Hi Can I have room service for
room 264, Mr. and Mrs. Jackson." she added giving Daniel a
wink.
Daniel simply shook his head and got back to his
paper.
"What can I get you Madam?"
"Um, Can I
have a bottle of Champaign and two glasses, and a large portion of
strawberries and cream" she remembered this from a film she had
recently watched. "We're on our honeymoon." she added with
a smirk
"Congratulations Madam, I'll have it sent up straight
away."
"Thank you." she replied putting down the
phone, she looked over and saw Daniel still engrossed he hadn't even
heard what she had ordered them, probably a good thing or he would
have objected.
