Disclaimer: If I owned it I would be rich, and I'm not. So I don't own it.
Note: Thanks to Kate and Furlings are cats told me that John's injury could take about two moths to heal fully. Thanks for the help. Also thanks to highonscifi for also reviewing and saying I have talent (Wipe away a tear) Thank you.
Now in a perfect world I would be doing my three pieces of homework that are for tomorrow BUT I don't want to. I'll do them in the 3 hour gap after finishing this and before watching Stargate and Stargate Atlantis. Wish me loads of luck.

Months later (8 years after Rising)
Jonathan came into the infirmary and was immediately swept up by John.
"What you doing here? You should be with McKay. Isn't he teaching you science?"
"I got bored."
John nodded his head.
"Understandable."
John continued to play with Jonathan until he heard a cough in the background and turned round to see Dr Beckett.
"Major, you are supposed to be resting that leg."
"Beckett, it's fine. Plus I'm playing with my kid."
John lifted up Jonathan to Beckett's eye level. Jonathan made a 'Let me play with Daddy' face and Beckett instantly melted.
"Who could say no to that face? Okay, twenty minutes and then I want you out."
Jonathan jumped down and hugged Beckett.
"Thank you."
"Remember twenty minutes."
Beckett turned and went back to his office. He sat down and watched as John played with Jonathan.
He felt it was amazing how John had raised that child as his own and how he loved him unconditionally. It didn't seem so long ago that Jonathan was a baby and now he was seven.
"How time flies." He murmured.
The only bad thing was, as Jonathan got older, he began to look like his actual father, Simon. Elizabeth had once shown him a picture of Simon while she was on the mainland and he could now see traits of him in Jonathan, just little things like his hair colour and eye colour.
He could also see that it was making Elizabeth uncomfortable. He'd overheard many conversations between Elizabeth and John about the tension. John had tried to assure her that it didn't matter but it was still difficult for Elizabeth.
Beckett turned to the clock. The twenty minutes were up.
"Think I'll give 'um more time."
He turned back to the window and watched John and Jonathan.
TBC...
I have no clue if there is a window in Beckett's office. I had to do this because I love Beckett, yes that's right Beckett is one of my favourite characters. I think that Beckett sees a lot in that infirmary and knows more about the personal on the base then they know about themselves.
Please review.
