Rodney's eyes flickered a bit. Carson smiled.
"He's waking up Major." John quickly moved across to the bed that McKay occupied. His eyes didn't open.
"Rodney?" Carson looked a little concerned. His eyes probably should have opened. "Doctor McKay?" His voice was firmer. John sighed.
"He can hear. Let me try." He moved close, leaning towards Rodney's ear. "Rodney. That cute nurse you like has some coffee for you, but you only get it if you open your eyes."
Rodney's eyes quickly opened and flicked form one side to the other. "Where?"
"Told you." John stepped back, Rodney's angry glare settled upon him.
Suddenly, two figures appeared at the door.
"Doctor Beckett, what has happened?" Teyla looked concerned, moving across to the bed.
"Rodney just got a bit of an electric shock Teyla. That's all."
"Not concentrating, hey Doc." Ford smiled impishly and Rodney's glare was diverted.
"For your information, Lieutenant, it was because of Major Sheppard distracting me." The glare was back to John. Ford smiled at him, looking almost pleased. Teyla was somewhere between confusion and anger. She was clearly alarmed that McKay was holding John responsible, though she wouldn't put it past him.
Before anyone could begin to retaliate or argue their defence, Doctor Weir darted in through one of the doors. She looked around, before settling her eyes on John.
"What we talked about his morning? It happened."
"Yes."
"Exactly?"
"Right down to the last syllable."
Everyone else was a little confused.
"Is he ok?"
"He will be fine!" McKay called across form his bed sulkily.
"Unfortunately." John muttered and shot a sly smirk at Elizabeth. She wasn't smiling. She was deep in thought. A silence blanketed the room, until Beckett's curiosity got the better of him.
"What's this about something happening exactly?" Elizabeth looked up with one of her trademark glares reserved only for him.
"You didn't say anything?"
"It didn't come into conversation." John smiled sheepishly, trying to use his puppy dog eyes, but it made no difference. She was mad. Really mad. She turned to Beckett.
"Carson, last night Major Sheppard dreamed about the exact situation he found himself in with Rodney today."
Carson's jaw dropped. Teyla's eyebrows shot up. Aiden could do nothing but smirk.
"A dream? About this?"
Sheppard nodded as Carson started pacing. He was babbling. Something about medical impossibilities.
"I have not heard of something like this happen before." Teyla sighed softly.
"I have." Elizabeth rubbed her forehead. "Back on Earth with…"
"SG-1." Was the chorus of replies around her.
"You know?"
"No, but it always is." Said Aiden before turning to John, "You dreamt about McKay?"
"Yes." Aiden was trying hard not to laugh. Sheppard aimed a swing at the young mans head.
"Major!" Dr Weir's shout caused everyone in the infirmary to stop and stare. With a cough, she continued.
"When you have all quite finished. As I was saying, this has happened to a member of SG1. Jonas…Jonas Quinn. Though he wasn't from Earth. Some sort of brain tumour caused it, I think. I need to take a look at the files again."
Everyone stared at John.
"Maybe we should get you a CT scan, son." Carson looked very worried.
"I should contact the mainland to see if anyone has heard of such a thing happening." Teyla looked at Weir, who nodded in return.
"Ford, could you ask Grodin if he could have a look at the database and see if the Ancients have anything that sounds anything like that?"
"Yes ma'am."
Quickly everyone turned in the respective directions and headed off.
"Hey! I'm the one that got hurt!" Rodney cried out after the retreating figures, but no one was listening. Rodney was left alone. He didn't like that. He settled back and began dreaming about a nurse and coffee.
