The Majors' Message
Reasons
"Major!" Doctor Weir called out, catching up to him.
He stopped and turned around. "Yea?" He knew what this was about.
"Lieutenant Ford has informed me that you haven't recorded a message yet. In fact you're the only one. Even Teyla sent a message." Yea this was about the messages.
"Teyla sent one? To who? The mall? That's pretty well the only place she's been, sort of." John said curiously.
"No Major I'll have you know that she did not send one to the mall. She sent one to Teal'c, who is an alien member of the SGCs' flagship team and also she wrote a report on her people for Doctor Daniel Jackson, as a special request from me. Why haven't you made one yet?" She asked seriously.
"Look Elizabeth you know why." John said. "You know about my history."
"Well John why don't you send one to him. I'm sure he'd like to see you're okay. He must miss you. Almost a year of not seeing you." She looked at him hopefully.
"Even if I did I doubt she'd let him even see it." He said.
"Send one to her as well. I'm sure your little sister would like to know about Teyla and you." She said smiling.
"Yea but I still don't know if she would let him watch it. She said something about using some self soothing growing baby method, I don't know." They had walked out onto one of the balconies in Atlantis. John leaned against the rail and stared out into the ocean.
"We can make sure that he gets to see it you know that." She sighed and walked over to stand beside him. "You miss him don't you?" She asked.
"Of course I do, every damn day I do. I will never be mad or angry with my sister. She raised my son for me. I love him, I do. I didn't even know he existed for the first two months of his life. One day my ex-girlfriend shows up on my doorstep and literally just hands him to me then leaves. I was only back for a weekend to visit my sister and then I get a kid. Then my sister did the unbelievable and said she'd look after him while I was gone. I came to visit every chance I could get. Then when I told her I was going somewhere, where I wouldn't be able to visit anymore." He sounded as though he was about to cry. "She told me not to call or anything." HE stopped for a minute and closed his eyes. "Who will all see the message?"
"Just you and whoever you want to see it. I promise." She said reassuringly.
"Okay then." He said and stowed away back into the corridors of Atlantis, looking for Ford so he could send a message.
