A/N: Now you figure out who knows their secret.
…. and immediately flinched back. "Colonel Sheppard, what the hell are you doing?" Colonel Caldwell yelled.
John flinched back, pushing himself back from Teyla. There was no point in hiding; it had been obvious what he'd been doing. "I assume you want me to help you with the ancient technology."
"That is an understatement Colonel. I need to see you outside. NOW!" Caldwell left no room for argument.
John flashed a concerned look in Teyla's direction, and then stepped outside the gym. He turned to face Caldwell.
"Let me make one thing straight Colonel; I expect never to find you associating with Ms. Emmagen in that manner. If I do, I will make sure you are sent back to Earth with a section eight discharge. Now go assist Doctor McKay, before I write that section eight." Caldwell didn't wait for John's reaction; he headed down the hall.
John walked back into the gym. "I guess we need to talk."
"Indeed." Teyla replied, pacing back and forth.
John took a step towards the window. "It's my fault. I should've gone."
"We are both at fault in this. We both knew it couldn't last forever."
"But we both wanted it. That's why we couldn't stop." He sighed. "We're going to have to let this calm down for awhile. We've got to stay apart." He already longed for her touch and they were only a meter or two apart.
"Agreed, though it will be difficult." Teyla stopped right next to him, placing a hand on his shoulder.
"One last time?" John asked. "Tonight."
Teyla resisted for a second but then nodded. "But after that we must stop, at least for awhile."
John nodded, in agreement with her statement. He knew each day would be pure torture without her touch. He knew it was probably a bit wrong for him to have those kinds of feelings, but he knew he did. In addition to the emotional connection he had with her; he had a physical connection he couldn't deny.
At least they would have one last night together. He doubted they would get much sleep at all. This almost made him aroused already.
A/N: I will be doing at least another chapter, it will NOT be a full fledged sex scene. The rating will not go up. Partially because I don't want to alienate my younger readers and because I don't feel comfortable with that method of writing.
