They'd been travelling in the back of the lorry for the last twenty minutes. No one had expected it to quite end like that.
SG1 had tracked them down to a small deserted warehouse and had managed to get them out, relatively unhurt.
No one knew what to say to her!
Shelley had been quiet since they'd found her and Vala. The darker haired woman taking most of the hurt! Although Shelley hadn't been immune. Vala had done her best to protect her, but their captures hadn't taken much notice.
They all sat together in the back of the truck. Still coming to terms with what had happened. Mitchell decided to ride up front with the driver. Not quite being able to look Daniel in the eye.
Vala, Sam and Reynolds sat on one side whilst, Teal'c, Shelley and Daniel sat on the other.
Shelley sat with her arms around Daniel, practically holding on to him for her life. Daniel had wrapped her up in a blanket, letting her rest her head on his shoulder. For ten minutes he had felt her body shake next to his.
Daniel thought for a moment, replaying the last moments in his mind. Knowing that if Mitchell hadn't dragged him away, he would have killed that trust operative! Now he was in the truck in front of them, heading back to the SGC.
Shelley shifted, moving up closer to Daniel, closing her eyes momentarily as she felt him kiss the top of her head.
Colonel Reynolds watched them from across the truck. Seeing how scared Shelley still looked. Even though she felt safe in Daniel's arms. He was jealous. His feelings for her hadn't diminished. Not even Daniel's warning to stay away, although he had kept his distance in recent months, at Shelley's request.
Vala's eyes drifted from the couple opposite her, to the sg3 leader next to her. The look in his eye was clear. Still in love with her friends wife!
