This was the third gift for Maddieamber for the beya secret elf exchange.
Just a little fluff, but you will find reference in Chapter sixteen of my other story.

Cinderella
.
Teyla watched Torren and John snuggled together in the old comfortable chair, John had purchased while on earth. Watching the two while John read Torren his bedtime story had become one of Teyla's favorite times of the day and she watched them as often as she could.
She usually waited a few minutes and made sure she was undetected when she sneaked to the door.
She had to smile when she realized that John was reading Cinderella once again. It was Torren's favorite since Jennifer had watched the movie with him a couple of weeks ago. He especially liked the mice Jacque and the big one she couldn't remember the name of.
Teyla eyes lit up, sometimes she felt a little like Cinderella too, though her story was quite different.
Her mind traveled back. Her memories of meeting John still fresh like it had been yesterday, Sumner's arrogance and John's genuine offer of friendship. He had seen more in her than just a farmer and hunter and he had rescued her then and many times in the following years, but they had never gotten together like Cinderella and her prince and she had turned to someone else at one time. Not thinking that they could ever be together. She remembered their dance around each other.
The light in the room before her dimmed and she looked up to see that John had put the now sleeping Torren to bed and was on his way to her.
"What's the smile for?" He asked capturing her lips in a soft kiss.
Teyla smiled back. "Just admiring my handsome prince," she said saucily and couldn't help chuckle when John's face lit up with her words.
"Prince, huh?" he asked grinning as he took her in his arms, capturing her lips again while maneuvering her to their bedroom, kissing her all the way.
Yeah she was Cinderella with the castle and the prince and hopefully the happily ever after too.
The End.
