Chapter 1: December 1st
(Ronon's POV)
I have been on Earth for over a year and still getting use to the customs. So here I am stuck on this base but it seems to be that time of year again for Christmas. Christmas on Earth is a lot like a celebration we have on Sateda around this time of year. The celebration is Festival of the Warriors anyway that is not the point the point is that I miss my family and last year I had someone to celebrate Christmas with.
That was Amelia Banks a marine that was great for a while. Truth of the matter is Amelia and I broke up a few months ago. We are still friends but she is in love with someone else, the truth of the matter is I am still in love with the woman that broke my heart a while back. She ended up choosing Rodney and I am glad she is happy but it does not mean I do not miss our friendship. So before I work on gaining back my friendship with Doctor Jennifer Keller since I pulled away, I decided to make some changes in my life to fit in on Earth. So I head to Teyla's room for my meditation session before I do some Christmas shopping. It takes me about ten minutes to Teyla's room because I was lost in thought I ended up being a little late..
[Teyla's room]
Ronon: Sorry I am late.
Teyla: Ronon it is ok, I gave me a chance to see Jennifer before she headed back home to visit her dad for the holidays.
Ronon: Oh that is nice. Anyway I need to do some shopping so let's get this started.
Teyla: Ronon what gotten into you?
Ronon: I just figured I make some changes in my life since we may be on Earth for a while.
Teyla: Is that the only reason or is there more because I thought you be spending the holiday with Amelia?
Ronon: No, the truth is we were never going out but just hanging out with as friends. Besides Amelia got Major Evan Lorne now and I miss my friendship with Doc. So are you and John spending the holiday together?
Teyla: Ronon I just assumed with Amelia you were going out like everyone else thought and it has been a long time since you mentioned Jen. Yes John invited Torren and I to meet his brother's family. So we are heading out tonight.
Ronon: Yeah I really messed up when I pulled away after she chose Rodney. Anyway let's this started so you can pack.
[The session started]
Half an hour later I left Teyla's room after the session and I am glad it was a short session because I saw Teyla giving me this look when I mentioned the Doc. Also I am happy for Teyla and John truth of the matter is it about time. The truth is after everything that happened with Doctor Elizabeth Weir, John deserved to be happy with Teyla. Furthermore, I was a little hurt when she mentioned Jennifer said goodbye before she left with Rodney for the holiday. Like, I said to Teyla it all boils down to the fact that I miss my friendship with Doc.
(Jennifer's POV)
Here I am packing in my room on Atlantis to visit my dad after I said goodbye to Teyla. Also it did not help that I happened to see Ronon heading that way as I left and I miss our friendship. The truth it was my fault because I knew he was interested in me and I chose Rodney. It is not like Rodney was a bad guy it is just we had too much in common we realized that last week so we broke up. Then last year around this time was good because we spent it with Rodney sister's family and this year was supposed to me him meeting my dad. Now to recent events, that is not going to happen so I end up going alone this year.
Before she goes she needs to talk to Woolsey. She is done packing heading out to the hall with her bags. As she heads to the command center she happens to see Ronon heading through the gate, wondering what is going on with him. Furthermore she turns heading to Woolsey's office, dropping her bags outside Before heading in.
[Woolsey's office]
Jennifer: Woolsey you wanted to see me before I go.
Woolsey: Yes I understand you are leaving earlier than planned. Why is that?
Jennifer: I needed to after my breakup with Rodney last week I could not stay. Plus I worked everything else with Doctor Beckett he got things under control.
Woolsey: Yes, ok have a Merry Christmas and have a nice visit with your father.
Jennifer: You too have a nice Christmas and I will see you after.
Woolsey: Oh and Jennifer I am sorry to hear about you and Rodney.
[Exiting the office]
Before I left the office, I smiled grabbing my bags and then headed to the gate. I stepped through the gate to the SGC, to be greeted by Colonel Samantha Carter-O'Niell. Then I was guided to the exit with one of the Military personnel holding my bags. I got into the SUV taking me to the airport for my flight home. Before heading into the airport I called my father saying, I will be home in four hours.
(Michael's POV)
I was surprised to get a call from my daughter saying she will be home in four hours. So I hide the presents I got for my daughter. I hid them, then, joined my best friend for lunch before picking up my daughter. I could not help but notice the tone in my daughter's voice on the phone and wonder what is going on. Last I heard she was happily dating but, it seemed to change as of now. Only one way to find out is when I pick up my daughter up in a few hours.
Four hours later I am waiting at the baggage claim for my daughter. My daughter arrives giving a big hug and then we pick up her bags. The car ride home was quiet but Jennifer was enjoying the scenery. We make it back to our house, then, she puts her bags in her room. After about ten minutes she comes out to help me in the kitchen for dinner. This is when I decided to see what is up with my daughter.
[Keller's kitchen]
Michael: Jen I could not help but notice you seem a little down today.
Jennifer: Yeah it is because I was hoping for you to meet Rodney but we broke up recently.
Michael: Sorry to hear that but what happened?
Jennifer: Dad he still loved his ex-girlfriend that he once proposed too. Plus we realized that we were too similar to have anything outside of work to relate too.
Michael: Sorry to hear that but I also sense something else is wrong.
Jennifer: I just miss another friend but he is happy with someone else, who am I to get in the way?
Michael: Oh I get it. It looks like dinner is ready let's eat.
[Heading to the dinner table]
I watched as we ate talking about other things. After dinner we talked some more. Then Jennifer headed off to bed. While I was still thinking on what she said about the other friend. Furthermore, I wonder if this other friend meant something more to her but after a little later I head up to bed.
