SOT Chapter 35
1.
Face burning, Elizabeth headed back to her office as fast as she could. Closing the door behind her, she sank down in her chair and covered her face with her hands. Holy hell! She felt her face get hot and she wished that she had a bucket of ice to stick her head in. She didn't think that she'd ever get...
"No." She moaned out loud. "Don't even think about it!"
She reached for the bottle on her desk and took a long drink of the now tepid water. She tried to block the image from her mind. Damn...after what she'd seen...she didn't think that she could ever face John or Susan ever again. But now was she going to avoid that when she saw them every single day? And then there was still the problem of Susan going all out after Rodney.
Good Lord. She shook her head. She just hoped that this day didn't get any worse. An hour later and she was thinking that she should have never even let that thought get into her mind.
"Elizabeth?"
"Yes?" She looked up from her computer and the ready smile on her face faded slightly. John Sheppard, wearing considerably more clothing then the last time she'd seen him was standing in the doorway. Susan stood just behind him, looking a little contrite but not much.
"I...ah...I think we need to have a talk." John pulled Susan into the office and closed the door behind him.
"Yeah," Elizabeth said slowly and tried not to stare at his crotch. "I think you're right."
"First thing before you even get started I want to say one thing-"
"No." Susan pushed him out of the way and stepped around him. "Elizabeth, I owe you an apology for what I did to Rodney. It was uncalled for and very unprofessional." She held up her hand when Elizabeth started to speak. "Please, let me finish."
Elizabeth raised an eyebrow at her and leaned back in her chair. "Okay. I'm listening."
Susan sighed, glanced at Sheppard and crossed her arms over her belly. "I'm not going to go into the sordid details of just what made me...assault...Doctor McKay-" She lifted her chin and gave Elizabeth a steady look. "I'm sorry, Elizabeth. But no one talks to me that way and I can promise you that if he ever does it again he'll get the same treatment."
Elizabeth though for a moment then she nodded. "Understood. But Susan, I can't have you waging all out war on Rodney when he insults you. You said it yourself, it was very unprofessional." Susan colored a little and Elizabeth wondered if her face was the same shade of red. "I think it would be best to let me handle Rodney from now on-"
"I'll take care of Rodney." John growled. "He damn sure won't-"
"John, I don't think that would be the best idea either." Elizabeth noticed the way that his eyes narrowed and he placed a protective hand on Susan's back. "I want the both of you to let me handle Rodney." She smiled slightly. "Not because I enjoy the idea of it but because Atlantis needs him and I don't want my chief scientist to end up as a smear on the floor."
Before Sheppard could say anything else she held up her hand. "John, I'm not going to discuss this anymore. Rodney will be my responsibility as far as it comes to any personal problems between the three of you. Understand?"
"Understood." John replied tightly but Elizabeth knew from the look on his face that the next time Rodney said something they would be prying John's fist out of his face.
"As long as you do." Elizabeth pushed the hair out of her face. "Now about this other problem..." She cleared her throat, blinked and tried to get the image of Susan's long legs wrapped around Sheppard out of her mind. She took a shaky breath and nodded her head. "Next time...please lock the door to your office. I really don't need to see your naked behind."
John gave her a wicked smile. "As long as you remember to knock next time."
"John!" Susan elbowed him in the ribs and he gave her a dark look. She winked at him and looked at Elizabeth. "And he wasn't exactly naked, Elizabeth. He did still have his boxer's on."
"Okay...okay..." Elizabeth gave an embarrassed laugh and raised her hand, feeling the heat rise up in her face. She tried to block the image of them on the desk out of her mind. God, if anyone else in Atlantis found out about this, she rubbed a hand over her forehead and sighed. "I promise to knock if you promise to lock the door."
"Agreed." John said. He would have kept on teasing her but he felt that he had embarrassed her enough. "Now, I think its time we got to the real reason of why we're here." He looked at Susan and Elizabeth saw something spark in their eyes. He looked at Elizabeth and his mouth curled slightly into a smile. "We need you to help us get married. Tonight."
"You need me to what?" Elizabeth put down her bottle of water and stared at them. She certainly hadn't been expecting that.
"Get married." John sat down. He started to pull Susan into his lap but she shook her head and sat down in the chair next to him. "Tonight if we can manage it."
"But I thought-" She looked at Susan and frowned. "I didn't even think that you'd made any real plans yet."
"We haven't." Susan gave Sheppard a look and they both smiled. "We're just tired of waiting."
"John, Susan...this is kind of sudden." She shook her head. "I don't even know if there's anyone in Atlantis that can even perform a marriage ceremony."
"Damn, I didn't think about that." John sat back in his chair. He rubbed at his chin. His eyes had gone dark and Susan could almost see the wheels in his head turning. Suddenly, he snapped his fingers. "The Daedalus is supposed to be here tomorrow, right?"
"Yes..." Elizabeth said. "But I don't see-"
"If I remember correctly, there's a Lieutenant Martin on the Daedalus. I talked to him a few times and if I'm not wrong, he was an ordained Minister." He shrugged, the look on his face telling her that he wasn't about to take No for an answer. "Wouldn't hurt to check and see if he still is."
"If you're really in that much of a hurry, I think I can do that." Elizabeth smiled and got up from her chair. "Give me some time and I'll let you know." She looked at Susan and winked. "Might even give us time to throw you guys a little party."
"We don't want a party." John scowled. Taking Susan's arm he pulled her up out of the chair. "We just want to get married."
"Oh...come on. John. You've got to let us do something." Elizabeth chided him. "It's not everyday we have a wedding in Atlantis."
"We don't want anything fancy either." John's scowl deepened. "Just our friends. We're not inviting everybody and his grandmother."
"Okay, then." Elizabeth said as she followed them to the door. "Just your friends will give you a party. Deal?"
He looked at Susan. She just shrugged. "Big help you are." He growled. Slowly, he shook his head. "Alright. But nothing big."
"Just a friendly little get together, I promise." As soon as they were out the door, she was on the radio. "Teyla, could you come to my office. I need to talk to you about something. And if Ronan's with you, bring him too."
2.
As soon as they were out of Elizabeth's office, John took her arm and turned her to face him. "Are you ready to talk about your brother now?"
She sighed and rested her head against his shoulder. "Not really but a promise is a promise." She slid her hand into his and gave him a tug. "Come on. Its easier to show you then to tell you."
"Where are we going?"
"My old quarters. I have something I need to pick up first." Her stomach decided to rumble then and he stopped. "Get your things. I'm going to get us some food and then I'll meet you in our quarters." Not caring that half the control room was watching, he kissed her and then headed off down the stairs toward the mess hall.
She was nearly to her quarters when she saw someone coming down the hallway toward her and she stopped. The other man was nearly on top of her when he saw her. His face turned white and he started to turn and go back the way he had just come when she reached out and grabbed his arm.
"Evan, wait a minute." She smiled slightly and turned him back around to face her.
"Doctor Walker, I really don't think-" He stammered slightly and looked behind her.
"He's in the Mess Hall." She shook her head and tried not to grin at the uncomfortable look on his face. "He won't be here for a few minutes." She linked her arm with his. "Come on, Evan. Take a little walk with me." She patted his arm. "I didn't get to talk to very much when we were on the mainland and then of course you know that I had my hands full with the Colonel when you brought us back on the Jumper."
He swallowed and nodded. Taking a deep breath he gave her a little look and then quickly looked away from her. "Look, Doctor Walker...if this is about-"
"Your bringing my people back from the mainland?" She patted his arm again and smiled at him sweetly. "Thank you, Evan."
His face got red and she felt a little guilty about teasing him. "Evan..." She stopped and turned to face him. They were alone in the hall and there were no prying eyes to see them. "Evan...I'm sorry. You're a really sweet guy and I shouldn't be teasing you like this."
His face got even redder.
Lightly, she rested her hand on his shoulder. "Evan, I'm going to say this quick before that aggravating, pain in the ass, bastard that I love so much gets here..." Leaning close, she gave him a soft kiss on the cheek. "Thank you. Its beautiful."
Lorne looked like he wanted to fall through the floor. "You're welcome." He mumbled, his face flushed with embarrassment. He glanced at her and she smiled slightly when she realized just where his gaze fell.
She ignored the look and gave him a quick hug. "But I am going to kick Sheppard's sorry ass for even taking that picture and for getting you to paint that portrait. He embarrassed both of us and I don't care how much he tells me that he did it because he loves me...he's going to pay."
"Doctor Walker, please you don't have to-"
"Yes, I do. And I will. It might not be right now but I will make him pay." Thinking that she'd heard something, she quickly looked over her moved away from him and gave him a little shove just as a familiar voice echoed from the other hallway. "Now go on before the big bad wolf gets here."
Evan was gone by the time Sheppard came into view.
"There you are." He frowned slightly when he saw her standing in front of her door, empty handed. "Where the hell have you been?" He peered down the hall and gave her a suspicious look. "And who the hell were you talking to?"
"Its only been a few minutes, Sheppard and for your information, I was talking to Evan. I thought that I should thank him for bringing my crew back since I was so preoccupied with you." It was half true anyway and she smiled as she passed her hand over the control and stepped inside when the door opened. She looked over her shoulder and tried not to smile at the uncomfortable look on his face. "What did you do? Fly?"
"Its been longer than a few minutes." He followed her inside and stood with his hands on his hips, watching her as she dug around in some of the boxes stacked up on the floor. "You're not always gonna be this damn slow, are you?"
She finally found what she was looking for. She tucked the photo album under her arm and turned to find herself captured against his hard body. She nipped at his chin and nuzzled the soft spot on his throat. "I thought that you liked it when I went slow."
"Not with this." He took the album away from her and gripped her arm, pulling her after him. "Come on, slow ass. Lunch is waiting and I'm starving."
When they were back in their own quarters, he pulled her out onto the balcony. He smacked her on the ass and pushed her toward the nest of pillows and blankets he'd spread out in the shade.
"After lunch, I'm expecting some dessert so you'd better get yourself comfortable."
She leaned back against the pillows and stretched out her legs and kicked off her shoes. John sat down beside her and reached for the basket of food he'd brought up from the mess hall before he handed her the photo album.
"This better not last long." He said as he handed her half of his turkey sandwich. He tugged at the buttons on her shirt and ran his greasy fingers over her skin. "I've got some strawberries and whipped cream in there that I want to see spread all over these pretty girls."
"Shit, Sheppard." She snuggled close to him and took a bite of her sandwich. "Is sex all you ever think about?"
He chuckled and rubbed his free hand over her breast. "I do have the reputation of being a Love Machine, Doctor Walker." He pinched her nipple, making her squirm. "Now shut up and eat. I want that dessert before we get into some big discussion about your family."
"Maybe I don't want to be your dessert." She finished the last bite of her sandwich and turned over to look at him. On her hands and knees, she pushed his legs apart and crawled over him until she was nestled between his thighs. "Maybe its time I got to satisfy my sweet tooth for a change."
The look in his eyes grew hotter and hotter when she undid the buttons of her shirt and let it fall open. She wasn't wearing a bra and when she reached up and pulled the pins from her hair, her nipples rubbed against the thin material.
She heard his breath catch in his throat when she rested her hands on his thighs and leaned over him. He tossed the rest of his sandwich back into the basket and reached for her but she pushed his hands away.
"No..." She slapped at his hands when he tried to touch her again. "Just lay back and enjoy it, Colonel."
"Enjoy what?" He growled. "You're not doing anything yet."
"So impatient." She purred and pushed the edge of his tee shirt up. Running her hands over his belly, she tugged at his belt, smiling at the way his fingers curled into the blanket. "Always in such a hurry..."
"Jesus..."
He groaned when she rubbed her hand over his chest and leaned down to brush her lips over his cloth covered erection. His hips lifted off the blanket and she pushed him back down. Hand flat on his belly, she nudged him, nipping at him lightly with her teeth until he was squirming. Undoing the snap, she tugged down his zipper and hooked her fingers into the waist band of his pants. He lifted his hips so that she could ease them down over his thighs. In seconds he was helping her tug him out of his boots and pushing his pants down and off his feet. He sat up to pull his tee shirt over his head but she grabbed his hands to stop him.
"Leave it on." She growled against his mouth.
"I want to feel you." He growled back.
"You will. Soon you're going to feel all of me. But I want to feel you first." She kissed his neck, a hot open mouth kiss that had him shaking as she ran her hands over his shoulders. The muscles under her fingers tensed when she breathed over the wet spot and he groaned and tried to touch her breasts but she just pushed him back and reached for the basket of food. "Shut up and lay down, Sheppard."
He started to protest and then a wicked grin came over his face. Laying back, he folded his arms behind his head and let his legs fall open. "You're a naughty girl, Suzie Q." He said softly. "I love that."
"You'll love this even better." Leaving the basket for a bit, she rubbed her hands over his hairy thighs and leaned in to tease his balls with her tongue.
He smelled so warm and his skin tasted salty under her tongue. Grinning, she looked up at him and reached for the basket, digging around until she found the container of whipped cream.
"I think you need some sweetening up, Colonel." She saw something else in the basket and a sly smile touched her lips. "Well..." She picked up the other container and lifted the top. "Whipped cream and cherries?" She lightly stroked her fingers over his erection. "Sheppard with whipped cream and a cherry on top...yummy."
His breath caught in his throat when she plucked the stem off of one of the cherries and popped it into her mouth. After a few seconds she leaned over him and dropped something warm and wet on his belly. He reached down and picked it up. It was the stem from the cherry tied into a perfect knot.
"If I can do that to the stem of a cherry..." She licked the inside of his thigh and he jerked at the feel of her rough tongue.
"Hell..." He let out a breath, a shiver running up his spine when he felt something cool touch his cock. He looked down to see her dipping her fingers into the cream and then spreading it over him.
She purred and flicked her tongue over the head of his cream covered erection. "Just think about what I'm going to do to you."
He fell back against the pillows with a groan when she took him in her mouth.
3.
The sun was going down when John finally woke up. He moved and felt something warm against his back. Susan was laying on her side, one arm curled under her head. He turned over and moved against her, brushing her hair back so that he could lightly kiss the back of her neck.
She whispered something and turned her head to give him that sleepy, sexy look that stirred his blood. She started to turn over but he held her still.
"Don't move." He whispered a kiss along her shoulder and the back of her arm, gently nipping at her soft skin. Sliding his hand over the curve of her hip, he stroked his fingers over her thigh and reached between her legs. "I want to love you."
"John..."
"Shh..." He whispered when her fingers touched his wrist. He turned her on her back and moved down so that he was between her thighs and her foot rested against his shoulder. He nuzzled the inside of her thigh, making her moan and when he pressed a kiss to her warm, wet folds, she shuddered and twisted her fingers in his hair.
Taking his time, he slid his tongue, full and wide, from the bottom of her slit to her clit. She gasped and fell back against the pillows, letting her legs fall open so that he could get a better taste of her. Using both hands, he tugged her folds apart and fucked her with his tongue, lapping at her and then wiggling the tip of it over the sensitive nub until she was mewling like a cat.
He suckled at her until she was shoving her hips up into his face and grabbing onto a pillow and biting into it so that no one would hear her screams. He laughed and whispered a kiss over the top of her slit, tugging at her with his teeth before he settled back and lapped at her again until she was begging him to let her come.
He flicked his tongue over her clit and then sucked her into his mouth, tugging at her hard and fast until she did come. He lapped at her, tasting her cream, drawing her sweetness into his mouth before he slid up behind her and rolled her so that he was pressed against her back. He slipped his hand behind her knee and pulled her leg up so that her foot rested on top of his thigh. His cock nudged against her opening and with one thrust of his hips he was inside her.
"Fuck!" He groaned and tightened his arm around her. "God damn it!"
"Mmm...I know, baby..." She ran her hand over his hip and turned her head so that she could kiss him.
"No," He groaned and pulled away from her wet heat. "My damn radio is going off."
"Do you have to answer it?" She pouted and ran her hands over his back as he reached for the ear piece and slipped it on.
"I'd better." He grunted and tapped the control. "Sheppard."
"Sorry Colonel." Chuck's voice said in his ear. "But Doctor Weir wanted me to contact you. She'd like for you to meet her in your office."
"Is it important?" He growled and nearly hissed when Susan started licking at his belly button. He stroked his hand over her back and tried not to moan when she reached between his legs and gently squeezed his balls. "I'm kind of...." He had to take a deep breath when she slid her tongue over his cock. "Kind of in the middle of something."
"She said it was something about the Daedalus?" Chuck replied.
John clamped his lips together for a second and tried to remember how to breathe. She was going down on him, sucking him like a lollipop. He twisted his fingers in her hair and tried to pull her back but she was relentless.
"Okay..." He tried not to stammer. "Tell her I'll be there in about twenty minutes."
He practically ripped the thing off his ear when he broke the connection with Chuck. Reaching down, he slipped his hands under her arms and pulled her off of him, wincing when he slid out of her mouth with a pop.
"Shit, baby..." He kissed her hard and then reluctantly pushed her away from him. "I hate to spoil our fun but I think I'd better go and see Elizabeth."
"John Sheppard? Listening to a woman? Damn, that's a surprise." She ran her hands over the backs of his thighs, giving him a quick nip on the ass when he turned to reach for his clothes.
"Only because she's the head of this expedition." He growled as he started to pull on his pants. "So don't get any big ideas in that pretty little head of yours."
"Hmph..." She snorted and gave him a leering grin. "I've got some ideas about a head alright." She leaned over and stroked her fingers over his belly, tugging at the front of his pants when he tried to zip them up. "And its such a big and pretty thing too."
"Stop it, greedy girl." He laughed and pushed at her hands. "I'll be back quick enough for you to play."
"You'd better." She growled at him and looked at the mess of blankets. "Tell you what...you go and have your meeting with Elizabeth. I'll get some dinner for us and by the time you get back I'll have a surprise for you."
"A fun surprise?"
"By the time I'm through with you, John Sheppard..." She smiled and gave him a wink. "You'll be begging me to let you go."
