Armed with a data pad full of information Ronon walked back towards his room Teyla stopped him to let him know that Sara was back on base. Following an instinct that he couldn't pinpoint Ronon made his way to Sara's room and entered her room without knocking.

Sara looked up as her door opened, but before she could get a glimpse of who had entered, her afternoon snack decided to make an unwanted reappearance. Groaning Sara leaned her head on the cool material that made up the floor, the room was warm but the sweat that covered her body gave her chills.

Shivering she levered herself up onto her bottom, a wash cloth held in a large hand appeared in front of her face, to grateful to question Sara grabbed the cloth and wiped the back of her neck, she felt the nausea subside enough that she was able to concentrate on her visitor.

"Ronon" Sara croaked, part question, part astonishment coloured her tone.

Without saying a word Ronon helped Sara to her feet, he examined her taking in her sweaty hair and clothing and how she trembled. Turning Sara he sat her down on the toilet, leaning in he started a warm shower. "Get in" he commanded.

To tired to argue, Sara sipped out of her t-shirt and jeans and stepped under the warm water wearing her jogging bra and boxers. Satisfied that Sara wasn't going to faint Ronon went into her room and looking around spotted fabric peeking out from under her pillow.

Tugging on it he found a pair of soft pink pants covered in strange oval shaped black and white animals wearing clothes, wrapped around a large white t-shirt, concluding that these must be Sara's sleep wear he returned to the bathroom.

His eyes were drawn to the outline of Sara's body as she stood under the water, she had removed her undergarments her skin glowed pink under the warm water, as Sara turned to the side, and Ronon came back to himself and placed the clothes on the vanity in reach of Sara for when she got out of the shower.

Ronon hurried down the corridor toward the mess hall, the information that Carson passed on stated that crackers and warm tea would help to sooth Sara's stomach, hopefully enough that she would be able to get to sleep.

Fortunately for Ronon Sara's rooms were not far from the canteen, he was able to grab a cup of tea and some bread sticks from the assortment left out by the staff for anyone who would be up and about late.

Keying open the door Ronon found Sara dressed and sitting in her bed reading, looking up as Ronon entered her face lit up with a smile. "Thank you so much for earlier, I don't know which of the Gods sent you here but I am grateful."

Nodding Ronon accepted her thanks; he set the breadsticks and tea on the bedside table "its green tea". Turning Ronon made to leave.

"Ronon would you mind staying for a few minutes?" Sara called softly from where she sat, putting her book to the side she gestured to the chair at the foot of her bed.

"Would you mind telling me something about Sateda?" Sara asked, "I would like to hear something about your home"

Thinking for a moment Ronon, nodded and started to speak, he felt comfortable telling Sara about his home. Ronon spoke while Sara drank her tea, as soon as she finished her tea Sara lay down, Ronon's baritone soothed her to sleep.

They settled into a routine, the five of them, McKay would pop in once a week and ask, "how you doing?" and leave without really waiting for an answer, Sheppard kept bringing food back from his missions for Sara, Carson would have afternoon tea every day that he didn't have a crisis in the infirmary, as long as he was on base Ronon would spend the latter part of the evening with Sara, telling her stories until she fell asleep. There were nights when Sara was unable to sleep and she entertained Ronon with stories from her life back on earth, some were humorous, and when asked Sara told Ronon some of her darker history.

It was Sara's fifth month and she was suffering from a common affliction of pregnant women once their morning sickness went away, she was severely horny!

Teyla moved down the corridor acknowledging the greetings she received but did not stop to talk with any of the personnel. Following her instincts she moved down a rarely used corridor that held housing units, ah she had run her prey to ground.

Sitting down across from the heavily pregnant woman who slept Teyla took a moment to examine Sara, it was a chance that Teyla rarely got as Sara was never still. Teyla had never met another person with so much energy.

Sara groaned and attempted to roll over, her stomach got in the way, cursing she struggled to sit up, "Oh hey Teyla, how's it goin?"

For a woman who speaks 30 languages and reads over 70 she really has terrible grammar Teyla thought not for the first time. "Things are going well, how is it with you?"

Ignoring the question, Sara pushed herself up off the couch, looking down at her large belly, she commented, and "Hard to believe I'm only five months along," Moving, toward the door she continued, "You know the other day, Valencia, Valerian, whoever she is asked me how many days until my due date Geez, just because I look like a beached whale doesn't mean that I'm gonna pop this kid out tomorrow."

Having gotten used to her friends tendency to have a conversation whether the other member was there or not followed Sara out the door.

Seeing a congestion of bodies at an upcoming intersection, Sara called out "Beached Whale Comin' Through"

The personnel laughed at the petite woman as she shooed them out of her way, "Gonna see the Doc, see how hot that Scottish accent can get me today." With a grin and a wink at the other women who had also been affected by the cute doctor, Sara continued down the hallway Teyla following in her wake.

A sarcastic voice called out from behind a column, "Ah yes, again I am presented with evidence to support my extensive relief at being born a man." Rodney moved out from behind the column, eyeing Sara with a look that on anyone else would be termed disgust, but on Rodney was just his usual expression when confronted by Sara.

Sara had eventually forgiven Rodney for his thoughtless remarks, but had joined forces with John to pull harmless pranks on the scientist every chance she got.

"Parkay, do not push me today." Sara threw back over her shoulder as she continued on her way down the corridor

"Arrgh the name's McKay." Rodney yelled

"Then you shouldn't have sung all the words to I'm a Muffin Man at the Holiday Celebration."

Teyla moved up beside her friend, "Aggravating Dr. McKay will only cause him to do something to you in return. You did not care for his retribution to your last feint against him."

Sara shot her friend a glare "Well he deserved it, calling me a glorified secretary." Waving her hands Sara continued, "I know that I speak with a horrible accent, it's easier for me to read and write in a different language than it is to speak one. Glorified Secretary my pudding ass, that man is simply jealous."

A look of mischief appeared on Sara's face, "Though it was worth having pudding put in all my drawers, just to see his face when he realized that I changed all his name tags to PARKAY. Oh we're here."

Sara went into her weekly appointment with Dr. Morgana Brown, a generalist who worked with Carson, Sara trusted Carson but felt uncomfortable having him as her OB/GYN as he might possibly be the father of her baby.

Sara literally bounced into the infirmary; waving at all the various medics that were there everyone had a smile for the perpetually sunny woman. "OK, where's my ladder, there ain't no way I'm gonna be able to get up on that bed with my usual grace and beauty without it."

Teyla moved the small stool out from under the bed, and sat down in the chair provided.

Dr. Brown, another Scottish member of the Atlantis Team walked into the cubicle, "Morning Ladies, so how are ye feelin today Sara?

"Health wise great, but I'm going crazy Doc." Sara hissed as the stethoscope came in contact with her skin, "That's cold"

"Hmm, heartbeat is regular; you're eating everything the dietician prescribed and taking your vitamins?" Katherine continued as if Sara hadn't spoken.

"Yes Mum, but my arms are to short!" Sara wailed

As Morgana ignored this outburst Teyla couldn't contain her curiosity any more, "What is the matter Sara? Why are you going crazy?"

Sara turned a pleading face toward her friend, "The hormones are driving my libido up a wall, and now I can't take care of my problem 'cause my belly gets in the way."

"All right you two picture me in the middle of a meeting with Zalenka. You haven't been embarrassed until your sitting talking with a Czech Scientist and your libido goes into overdrive." Laughing Sara tried to get sympathy from Dr. Brown.

Throwing a dirty look at Morgana who was pretending not to listen, "and Morgana here advised me to find a man who would be willing to pound me through the mattress until the itch goes away".

"Yes, well apart from the ethics of such a situation, it would not be good for the baby, if as you put it were 'pounded through the mattress', now you never answered my question." Morgana turned back to the women, completely unperturbed by Sara's outburst.

"What question, yes I did, I said I was taking my vitamins, eating properly and getting an appropriate amount of exercise. I'm healthy as a horse, which brings me back to my major problem, I'm incredibly in need of some lovin'" Sara crossed her arms over her chest, and succeeded in looking like a sulky child.

"Sara you know what I prescribed to you the last time you were here." Dr. Brown's lips twitched as she tried to contain her smile.

Sara swatted at the woman who had become her friend during their time together, "Uh huh I can see it now, 'Dr Weir could I please make a city wide announcement, Excuse me this announcement is for any able bodied single male interested in having sex with pregnant female. Please show up at the canteen for an interview at 14:00 hours today."

Sara sputtered in laughter as she finished her impromptu fake announcement, "Kay I think that's enough silliness for today. See ya at poker night tonight Morgana."

With a smile and a wave Sara waddled out of the infirmary, unbeknownst to her Ronon and Carson had been in the bed next to hers, hidden behind a curtain.

Carson eyed Ronon with a wary eye as a speculative look came over the other mans face.
