Under the Microscope - part 2
For once, I have actually finished a whole story before posting the chapters! The upshot being you can expect updates for this story FAR more regularly than you would normally get them from me. Enjoy!
M - Hey Teal'c.
T - Hello Michaela Dawson.
M - How many times, T? It's Mickey! M-I-C-K-E-Y!!!
T - A compromise?
M - I'm listening.
T - Just Michaela?
M - Ummmm . . . okay, deal.
T - Very well.
M - So, Cat told me what happened.
T - Who is Cat?
M - Oh! Sorry, Sam. Sam Carter. I call her Cat, or Cazzy, cos . . . ah never mind. It's a long story.
T - I see.
M - So, they kissed! Tell me more!
T - I am most surprised that Major Carter told you. I was under the impression they wished no one to know.
M - Ah, come on, it's just me. I'm practically part of the team anyway. Okay, so I don't do any of the saving the world, action hero stuff, but still . . .
T - You are an integral part of the family, Michaela.
M - Awww, T, that's so sweet.
T - You are most welcome.
M - Anyway, yeah, Sam told me. And swore me to secrecy, but I wanted your take on it.
T - On the kiss?
M - Indeed.
T - I am . . . disappointed.
M - That they kissed?
T - That they are unwilling to address the stir of emotion it caused in both of them.
M - EXACTLY! I tried to get Cat to talk about that, but she just clammed up!
T - I spoke to O'Neill. He also was unwilling to discuss it.
M - So what do we do?
T - I do not believe we can do anything, other than wait. Obviously they do not wish to admit their feelings yet, and we cannot risk their careers without their consent.
M - Yeah, I had a feeling you'd say that.
T - However, I do believe they are making a grave error. Love is not to be dismissed.
M - So you do think it's love.
T - I am certain of it.
M - It's kinda sad, isn't it? That they love each other but can't do anything about it?
T - Indeed.
Pause
M - Anyway, T, I gotta go. Jack's chasing me for his precious memos. See you tonight?
T - Indeed.
Hope you liked it! Please please please keep reviewing, it brightens my day.
Beka :-)
