--Chapter 11--
She had tears in her eyes. Throwing her arms around his neck again she pressed herself close to him. He circled his arm around her waist and pulled her to him, bowing his head down to rest on her shoulder.
Finally pulling apart, he saw love and deep happiness in her eyes.
She looked into his eyes, and she saw love and adoration.
Laughing again in pure joy she jumped at him for another hug. Instead he swung her around to catch her in his arms like a child and began to sprint for the control room, to share her recovery with their friends.
"Ronon! I am perfectly capable of walking myself!" She protested, giggling. He kissed her forehead quickly. She did not truly mind, he couldn't contain his ecstatic energy.
--Later--
"I feel perfectly fine. Except for a headache, but, as Dr Beckett said, it is to be expected"
She looked at all her friends around the conference table, all smiling and glad to have her back. Ronon touched her arm gently, as if to reassure himself that she was still there. She turned and smiled gently, perfectly, back at him.
If anything, this experience had brought them closer. Ronon had realized just how much she had meant to him, and he had saved her.
-- Authors' Notes --
Thankyou for reading my first chapter fic, I hope you enjoyed it! Here are some notes on the story if you are interested.
Disclaimer- I don't own them or profit from this.
Thankyou, reviewers- Alexiel974, DramaQueen90 and bailey1ak!! Especially Alexiel974 and DramaQueen90 for the frequent reviews and bailey1ak, a Ronon/Keller shipper-did I convert you?
Alexiel974, Thankyou again for the encouragement and comments. I hope you enjoyed the ending! I like happy endings.
It is in special features somewhere (don't ask me where) Ronon sketched and sang back on Sateda. Not a side usually shown, but Teyla is an exception, of course! If I were to give her a creative skill myself, it would be dance.
I don't have a beta reader, but I think that self-correction is ok so just review me.
When she is holding the flower to her face, it triggers a memory. Apparently scent is most linked to memory. Also, I hear that hearing is the first to return after you are unconscious. That's why she hears Ronon but wakes up later.
Much as I would love to claim it as my own, "For whom the Sun rises" or "For whom the sun shines forth" was a title of Nefetari, Great Royal Wife of Pharaoh Ramses the Second. Look them up because it's a good story.
I toyed with "Most beautiful of all living things" but, it's a little too obvious for the LOTR fans out there. But did you notice the star-shaped white flowers?
I love Ronon's character, second only to Teal'c. I'm sure that underneath he is really caring.
The individual characters with meaning making a different whole when put together is what I understand of the Chinese characters- which isn't much. Correct me if I'm wrong.
I would have loved to have drawn this story out but I don't have the time .
