This short story is a translation of my french fanfiction "Un regard", a Sheyla's drabble.

Disclaimers: The characters of Stargate Atlantis aren't my properties.

One look

"Tell me where is your son and maybe I will not kill the Colonel."

The tears flow now, freely, slowly, silently.

Teyla doesn't beg; the man can't be reasoned.

His look meets John's eyes.

I'm sorry.

I understand.

"Nothing to say?"

I have no choice.

I know, don't feel bad.

"No? Well, in this case…"

I love you.

I love you too.

A lot of words in one look.

The shot rings out.

THE END
