Summary: A mysterious guest in the Colony makes Wash jealous

A/N: Ok, this is my first TN fic. I conceived the idea, while I was so shattered after Wash's dead (of course I can't believe she's dead. I think she will come back in some way in season 2).

I absolutely adore Wash/Taylor, they have a potential.

Disclaimer: I don't own it, well maybe except that lovely lady, Dr Kendist :) All mistakes are mine, because.

Lieutenant Washington was standing on the balcony in Command Center watching the gate and people around the market place. It was one of those days, when Taylor was OTG with a team and she was in command of Terra Nova. She looked at her watch second time in this hour and then run her hand though her long, black ponytail. They were late. He was late.

His team left the colony two days ago with the supplies to Outpost 4. They were supposed to spend the night there, took the data and some scientist with them and headed back to the colony. Everything went good according to the plan, they reached to the outpost, checked in, took a data and left. But they missed their checking point and didn't radio the base. It had been two hours since their last radio contact. They should be in the colony and hour ago, but they weren't.

She turned around and taking a deep breath she stepped into Commander's office. She sat down in the chair, putting her elbows on the glass table. She had to think clearly, even if she couldn't stop imagine he might be in danger. Of course it wouldn't be the first time and not the last. Beside he was a tough men, nothing could bring him down. It didn't matter if the slashes attacked him or the Sixers, he always managed to survive.

She needed plan. She couldn't radio them, because their radio was somehow out of the reach. All she could do was sitting and wait or…

Wash stood up and run out the office. She stopped on the balcony and looked at the people under her. When she noticed Shannon, she nodded in his direction, giving him an invitation to the office. The detective only smiled and quickly went to the ramp, which was leading to the balcony. Shannon followed the lieutenant into the office.

"You wanted to see me?" he asked and looked at her face. She was pale and her eyebrows were frowned. He could tell she was worried and pissed off.

He hummed. He exactly knew why he was here. The Commander did return yet, and she was out of her mind. It was normal for the woman to be worried about her lover's life. Even if she wouldn't admit it. Jim was observing the two of them since he got here and he had to say it was funny. Washington and Commander were something more than friends, but clearly they didn't know about it. So they still were dancing around each other.

"How long?" he asked again when she was walking the hole in the floor.

"One hour and four minutes." She said running her hand though her hair again. "Take a team and wait for me at the gate. I'm going to find them. You will…"

She didn't finish, because her radio came to life. She placed her finger on the radio bottom.

"Taylor to Terra Nova. We are heading to the colony. Please open the gate."

His voice made her smile. She left the office to the balcony and she saw the convoy. They were in one piece. Wash sighted gently. She glared at the soldier who was standing next to the door ordering to open the gate before she started to going down the ramp with Jim after her.

It was two minutes later when the convoy stopped in front of her. The soldiers were unpacking the cars, while the Commander went to the first vehicle and offered his hand the woman who was sitting in the car. Washington could see her smile and her stomach tightened up.

The woman took his hand and get off the car. Then Wash saw her, she was one of the anthropologist from second pilgrim. Dr Lauren Kendist, the most perfect woman in the colony; long legs, silky skin, which was shinning in the sunlight, perfect breasts, slender neck and delicate features. She was wearing simple jeans shorts, white T-shirt and sandals. Her long brown curls were falling on the shoulders. Beautiful, intelligent and single. The dreamed woman of every man in the colony.

They smiled to each other and started to walk in her direction. Wash looked at her Commander and what she saw in his eyes made her stomach tighten up once again. He was totally possessed by Lauren. The smile on his lips, the way he hold her arm and leaded her, show that she was his woman, and no one can change it. Lauren told him something to his ear and his smile changed into the biggest grin she ever saw.

Wash looked down letting her eyes close for a moment. She wasn't jealous type, of course. And she wasn't jealous that her Commander found someone. She was happy for him. He deserved to love again and be love in return. So yes, she wasn't jealous. It was only that thought which was going on her mind: Why the hell I can't be on her place!

"Wash, you ok? You look like you're about to pass out."His voice brought her back to the reality; she looked at him and fixed a small smile.

"Sir. Dr Kendist it's good to see you." She said and eyed to the woman. Like hell! What are you doing here? Tired of your toys in outpost 4?

"You too Alicia." Oh I'm sure you know what I am doing here. Someone has to take care of Nathaniel. Lauren smiled to Wash and she only opened her mouth, but didn't say anything.

Over my dead body! Her eyes were screaming, but her body was calm as usual.

We will see! Lauren added to the lieutenant while she tighten her hand around Taylor's arm. He covered her hand with his own.

"Ok, I want a report to the end of the day at my desk. You're dismissed lieutenant."

"Yes, sir."

She saluted, when they passed her. She didn't turn around, even when she heard them, talking about her. Alicia pressed her lips together and looked around the people who stopped by to see who the mysterious woman on Commander's arm was.

"Don't you have a work to do, people!" she hissed glaring at the people around her, before she headed into the gym.

Jim was observing again. When Commander and this new doctor left, he saw Washington's reaction. She looked like someone thrown at her a bucket with cold water. She was pissed off even more than earlier and he didn't know why, but she also felt betrayed. It was something worth to investigate. He needed to know who the new doctor was to Commander Taylor. He pressed his lips together and made his way to the hospital. He knew that his wife might be a good information source, after all this Dr Kendist will have to go through medical checking.
