Chapter Eight

"Serenity open up let me!" John yelled through her closed door. He heard moving around and knew she was walking away from the door instead of letting him in. So, he overrode her code and let him self in. He looked around to see her standing at the foot of her bed staring at him with anger.

"So you've learn something from my sister I see." she bit out bitterly

"You wouldn't let me in." he said as he had to check his own temper

"Did it ever occur to you that it was because I don't want to talk." her tone was harsh and angry

"You're upset I get that, but you've never shut me out before." he said as he stepped closer to her.

"Well, we haven't really been close in like a year." she said her anger starting to fade away" I'm sorry I was harsh with you."

"It's ok." he said as he stood only a few inches from her.

"Before we came here we both had other people. I never knew you were dating my sister though." she said softly

"Yeah, I didn't know that you two were sisters." he said softly

"We happened just once and we both love other people." she explained softly

"Yeah we did." he confirmed I still love my person. He silently confessed to his self.

"Me and Cameron were over long before I came here it's why I even came." she paused " Ronon and I are very close and I'd like to discover where things can go with us."

"That sounds like a plan." he said thinking about Nebula and less about Elizabeth.

"Ronon's rough and smug, but he's got this warm spot." she looked at him as she spoke" He's like you all tough on the outside, but warm and soft on the inside."

"Thanks I think." he said as he door opened up.

"Ronon." Serenity's voice said as she side stepped John who casually turned around to face Ronon.

"Hey I just kicked your sister's ass so I thought I'd come check on you." Ronon said as he took her in his arms.

"Me and my sister didn't have words just my past came through the gate." she said softly

"The man you left behind." he said as John moved to leave

"I'm going to let you two talk this out. Did you hurt Nebula too bad?" he questioned

"No, just bruised her ego." Ronon said as John left.

"God, I've missed this so much." she said knowing he wanted to talk about Cameron" Yes, Cameron Mitchell is back in my life, well he's here in Atlantis, but I've long been over him. I realized that the moment you came into my life. Ronon Dex I am so in love with you." the words left her lips before she had time to really think them through, but once they were out there was no taking them back Do I even want to take them back? She thought as she stared deep into Ronon's eyes searching for answers.

"You don't love me." Ronon said after a moment's pause. He heard the words she said, but he couldn't believe them.

"Yes, I do." she insisted" Who are to tell me how I feel. We've spent a year together and in that year I have fallen for you." she placed a hand on his.

"You love the idea of me, but you don't love me." he said waiting for her to tell him he was wrong

He doesn't feel the same way about me. She thought as her heart sunk." Y- you're right." her voice was full of sadness as she walked passed him and sat on the edge of her bed.

He quickly reached out and grabbed her elbow pulling her up against his chest. He didn't say anything as he brought his lips down on hers. She instinctively pushed at his chest, but he was relentless in his pursuit to kiss her. She pushed him hard this time and managed to dance them around to where his back was to her bed.

"Ronon you can't solve things by kissing me." she said as he leaned down and kissed her neck. She let out a soft gasp as a tiny sensation went through her body." Ronon. We can't."

"Why not?" he asked as he looked deep into her eyes and finally saw what he needed to see.

"Because it wouldn't be right between us." she lied softly

"Because of Cameron..." he paused" Or Sheppard" she brought her surprised eyes to his

"Why would even ask me about John?" she questioned confused

"Because I see the way he looks at you and how close you two are." he said as he kissed her cheek

"We're only friends nothing more." she said as she found it hard to think with him so close to her and his lips attacking her flesh the way it was." Ronon I can't think with you kissing me like this."

" Good then don't think." his voice was a whisper across her skin." Just let your body feel." he removed her shirt letting it slid off from her body

"That's how I get into trouble." she said as she removed his shirt and watched it fall to the ground

He smiled at her as he tossed her onto the bed. She laughed out as he laid over her. He kissed her passionately. She returned his kiss with a passion all of her own. He looked at her bra then back up to her face with curiosity across his face. She laughed as she reached for the closer in the front and undid it. He slipped the bra off. The next to go was their pants. He looked at her underwear and back up to her face this time there was this reckless desire all across his features. He kissed her neck. Her shoulders. Her stomach. Every inch of skin he could reach his lips found. He brought his lips back up to hers kissing her roughly. Serenity was his home. She had been the only one in his life and he couldn't imagine it without her. Then there was the matter with her ex being back in her life. He couldn't wait around for her to decide who she wanted, but she had told him she loved him and that meant something to him. He looked down into her passion filled eyes and saw the love she had declared not so long ago. This was their moment. She dug her nails into his shoulders as he removed her panties and made her his. Everything else would work itself out. For right now they had each other and to him that was all that matter.
