Teyla awoke to a beep emitting from her comm. Getting out of bed quickly, she hurriedly put it on. "This is Teyla. What is wrong?"
"Report to the control room. You'll find out there." John's response was short, cold, but almost cheerful, for some reason. Teyla grabbed her jacket and put it on over her nightgown before leaving.
When she arrived, she first noticed that John had this smirk on his face. "Your husband's down there. He was feeling well enough for gate travel, but it had negative effects. Go look and see." A scowl came to his face, and left Teyla with a shiver of fear going down her spine.
She ran sown the stairs to see Kanan on a gurney, but too pale to be anywhere near healthy. She reached out and felt his hand. It was cold. She looked at Doctor Keller and she nodded sadly. She ran to her quarters and sat on her bed, letting the burning tears loose.
Teyla cried for what felt like hours, and when she was done, as if he'd known she'd stopped crying, John rang the door chime. She got up to let him in, and he sat down, remorse the most obvious emotion on his face.
"Teyla, I'm sorry for how I acted. I was rude to you and I was almost happy over Kanan's death, but then I realized how you must feel and that woke me up. I was jealous and I took it out on you." Teyla nodded and hugged him. John was a little surprised, but hugged her back.
When they pulled away, Teyla got nervous. "John, there is even more pressing news. I'm afraid I will have to stay on base for several months. I am pregnant." John blinked for a few minutes and sat there in shock. "I am truly sorry for telling you this now, but it had to be said."
John nodded and pulled her in for another hug. "It's okay," he said. "We'll get through this." He kissed her forehead and pulled away. "And while we're telling each other things…" He rested his forehead against hers and his hazel eyes bored into her chocolate brown ones. "There is something I've been meaning to tell you. It's about some of your people. The ones that went missing?" At her nod, he continued. "They've been found. But, we can't get to them. They're with a hive. But, the hive is very powerful, so we can't fight to get to them, but we're gathering intel and we plan to try to get them out within a month."
Teyla's face broke into a grin. "Truly?" John smiled and nodded. "I must tell the others. They will be pleased."
"Of course, Teyla. Now, shall we go spar?" They smiled at each other, and Teyla nodded.
As they went off to change, they imagined how the rescue would go, but it would end in a way that was the opposite of what they hoped.
