I wrote this a while back, for Anlaria Onyx's birthday, which was on February the 23rd.


John walked in very slowly, careful not to drop the cake he was holding.

Tagan was turning 1 today, and they – Teyla, Tagan and himself- were celebrating it together, as a family.

Tagan's eyes widened at the sight of the huge cake John was holding, and he clapped his little hands in delight.

John crouched down, and put the cake down on the table. It was chocolate cake, Tagan's favourite, and it had a big 1 in the middle – which, of course, was also made of chocolate.

He sat down in the chair next to Tagan's high chair and gave him a hug.

But the excited little boy was much to focused on the pie to give him any attention what so ever.

He heard a laugh coming from behind him, so he let go of Tagan, and turned around.

It was Teyla.

He patted the chair next to him, and she walked over to them.

When she sat down, he gave her a quick kiss, and put his arm around her.

She leaned into his embrace and watched as Tagan reached out to the cake, and whimpered. He obviously felt that he had waited long enough.

John chuckled. Tagan was never very patient when it came to food.

Teyla picked up the knife, and cut out a piece of cake for Tagan.

As soon as she gave it to him, he started eating.

Teyla laughed and shook her head.

John smiled as well, and took a piece of cake for Teyla and himself.

"Thank you John."

"No problem."

Teyla sighed and sat back. What a wonderful day it was today. They had spent the whole day together, without intrusions.

Tomorrow was Tagan's birthday party. Rodney and Ronon had organised it.

It was his real birthday today, and they had deliberately chosen to have the party the day after.

Today was just about the three of them.

It was always so hectic and busy; life on Atlantis.

With John and Teyla going out on missions, Tagan was spending a lot of time with either the Athosians, or one of his many babysitters.

After Teyla had given birth to him, John had immediately grown close to the little boy. The three of them started spending a lot of time together; which resulted in John and Teyla getting married.

They had moved to one of the family quarters that they had discovered not so long ago. It included their own kitchen, a bathroom, a living room, and 3 bedrooms.

The third bedroom was currently being used as a story room, but that would soon become the nursery.

John looked down at Teyla's barely noticeable baby bump, and smiled. He would love to have a baby girl. They hadn't thought of any names yet, but they still had plenty of time to come up with one.

He couldn't help but smile while looking at Tagan and Teyla. They meant so much to him, and he was excited that there was going to be a fourth member added to their family.

Never in his whole life had he felt so happy. And looking into the beautiful brown eyes of his wife; he knew that she felt exactly the same way.

The End.
