CHAPTER 3

Teyla gently rubbed John's hand as he began to wake up again, it had been several days since his last awakening. But this time Torren was with her and was squirming in her lap. She had wanted to be there the next time he awoke, the entire week he had been restless and Dr. Keller had to restrain him agian. Teyla did not want him to wake to being restrained in the bed. John's dazed eyes opened loooking up at her. He weakly lifted his arm and pulled his oxygen mask

"T'la?" he asked in a hoarse voice.

"John it is good to see you awake" Teyla said.

"Good to be..." he never finished as went into a coughing fit.

John grunted in pain when his shoulder was jostled. Teyla held her hand on his chest to hold him down from moving and grabbed water with a straw. Teyla gently put a straw to his lips and he gently sucked.

"Is Torren alright?" he asked weakly as he tried to move his hands and looked up at Teyla confused.

"John you must put your mask back on " Teyla said and she pullled his mask back over his mouth.

held Torren up for him to see.

The little baby stretched out his hands to John.

"Joh Joh" he cried happily trying to reach for him.

"Hey buddy" he whispered and yawned tiredly and the oxygen mask fillled with smoke.

"John you should go to sleep" she whispered as she stroked his warm forearm.

John nodded and said something from under the mask that Teyla could not hear. John's eyes began to droop as she kept rubbing his forearm.

"Thankx" he whispered as he fell asleep.

--

The next several weeks John had been becoming more and more aware everyday. Teyla entered the infirmary to see John leaning heavily on Ronon and Keller as he walked on one foot across the room.

"Hello Teyla you just made it we're trying to help John walk on his leg." Dr. Keller said as she helped the Col trying not to grip his shoulders to heard while doing it.

"Come on Sheppard a couple more steps" Ronon said from next to him.

"You said that 2 minutes ago" John muttered as he leaned heavily on Ronon.

The three got back to his bed and Teyla helped them lift John onto the bed,

"Hey Teyla" he murmured tiredly as he ran his hand through his sweaty hair that was stuck to his forehead.

"John it is good to see you up and about" she said grinning happily.

"Your not the only one" he muttered as his eyes grew droopy.

His eyes closed and he sunk father in the bed. Teyla looked down at him to discover he had an almost looked child- like in the bed.

"See you later Sheppard" Ronon said clapping him on the arm instead of the shoulder.

"Bye" John mutter before silently dozing.

Soft snores could be heard as Teyla and Dr. Keller pulled up the blankets up to his chest. Teyla and Dr Keller tiptoed off trying not to wake the Col.

"How is the Col. doing?" Teyla asked as they stood in Dr. Keller's office.

"He is doing much better and his fever is completely gone and his shoulders are healing" Dr Keller said happily, because his patient was doing much better then before.

"I would like to sit with him for a while am i allowed?" she asked looking over at John's sleeping form.

"Go ahead" Dr. Keller said and turned to her large pile of papers.

Teyla walked towards his bed and sat down next to his bed. She gently massaged his hand and noticed his eyes open.

"Hey Teyla how are you?" he asked drowsily.

"I am fine" she whispered, she was know use to his constant thing, of checking on others more then himself or others.

"Good" he muttered as he fell asleep as she stroked his hand.

--

John was leaning heavily on his crutches as he talked with Dr. Keller. Teyla waited with them, she was his babysitter as he called it. Teyla had actually noticed Kannan

complaining more and more about John and her being with him.

"Where are you going?" Kannan asked from the chair where he was holding Torren.

"I am going to go watch over Col. Sheppard because Dr. Keller specifically asked me to help make sure he will not injure himself and that he will receive his proper medication" Teyla

explained as she opened the doors.

"Teyla why do you not ask Dr. McKay or Ronon to watch over the Col. and spend time with me and your son" Kannan said and Teyla sensed the anger in his voice.

"Did you not notice that Col. Sheppard almost died for our son and this is how you repay him, and he rescued us from Michael instead of feeling gratitude, you feel anger and

jealousy" Teyla spat at him.

"Was it not his fault Michael happened maybe it was him who deserved-" Teyla slapped him across the face, hard.

"Get out" she screamed at him taking Torren from him.

"You are mine" Kannan said grabbing her wrist.

Ronon just happened to walked by and grabbed took a menacing step towards Kannan. Kannan looks around looking at Ronon and Teyla.

"Fine" he hissed wrenching his arm from around Teyla's wrist and stumped off.

Know Teyla stood next to Sheppard as she took the pills from Jennifer.

"Teyla i want to keep careful eye on the Col. and do not go off you crutches Col. Sheppard, at all" Dr. Keller said in a stern voice.

"Doc. don't worry i'll be fine but are you sure that i can't go off world any earlier-" John didn't even get to finsished as Dr. Keller jumped at him.

"Nooo, you are not allowed to do work or go off world for a month" Dr. Keller said.

"But doc, a month" John whined like a child.

"Teyla do not let him out of you sight and don't let him do any work"

"I will not"

"Also make sure he get's all his pills and he's not allowed to skip any times to take them" Dr. Keller explained.

"He is right here" John hurrumph as he began to limp out on his crutches.

"Col. wait" Dr. Keller said from behind him.

"What?" he asked

"Use the crutches" she said as Teyla caught up with him.

As soon as Dr. Keller was out of sight. John let go of the crutches and limped towards his quarters.

"John you must use the crutches" Teyla said from next to him.

"Oh come on Teyla I'm fine" he said as he kept walking.

"John use the crutches" Teyla hissed.

"Yes ma'me" he said and went under the crutches.

"Remind never to mess with a mother" he murmured to himself.

Teyla slapped him on the arm.

"OW Teyla" he whined and Teyla began to laugh.

Teyla had missed this. They went past John's quarters.

"Teyla aren't we going to my quarter" he asked as he turned on his crutches.

"No we are going to mine because i would like keep a special eye on you" Teyla teased and led him to it.

They reached or quarters and Teyla helped John to the edge of the bed and took his crutches and put them to the side of the door.

"Where's Kannan?" he asked looking around.

"He has left me and Torren" she said sadly.

"I'm sorry Teyla" he murmured and gently grasped her hand.

"Thank you John" she said and let go of his arms as she got up to find John's first bottle of pills in her pocket.

John meanwhile was trying to take off his Atlantis jacket and groaned slightly as it pulled at his still healing shoulder.

"Let me help" Teyla said and reached down to help him with his jacket.

She ended up encircling her arms around his chest as she helped him take his jacket off. Teyla fell into his arms as she tripped so she ended up with both her arms next to his ears and her face right above his. Suddenley something sparked and Teyla began to kiss John but there was a loud knock on the door.

"Who is it? " Teyla asked as she picked her head up from John's mouth.

"Its Ronon" he said gruffly.

"Damn it" John muttered as he sat up on his elbows.

"I will be there in a second Ronon" she said and helped John stand up against the bed and she fixed her shirt and hair and walked towards the door.

"Hello Ronon why would you like?" she asked a little more tougher then she wanted it to sound.

"I was just bringing some extra bandages for Sheppard" Ronon said and looked at John leaning on the bed.

"Thanks big guy" John said from behind her.

"Yes thank you Ronon i will call you when it is your turn to take care of Col." Teyla said and then shut the door.

Teyla quickly got back to John and kissed him hard across the lips then he limped over and fell to the bed as Teyla stood over him and gently began to undo his shirt.

--

Teyla got up from the bed to see John fast asleep next to her. She quickly tiptoed out from under the covers and got dressed.

"Where you going?" John asked looking up at Teyla.

"I believe it is time for your bandage" Teyla said from the bathroom.

"Uh.. could you help me get dressed?" he asked innocently.

Teyla gently wrapped another ace bandage around John's ribs and then gently helped him pulled the t-shirt over his head. She was very close and could smell his colonethat she loved so much. She smooth his black hair that just shot up more after she tried to pat it down. She then helped himp pull a bandage around his thigh. She then helped him pull his pants on.

"Thanks" he said.

"I am going to get Torren from Capt. Anna" she said and she gave him one last kiss.

"I will be right back keep safe" she said.

"Don't worry" he said and gave her a saucy wink as she walked out.

Teyla exited and did not notice the dark shadow in the room. As she walked down the hall, she could erase her nervouse energy that was caused from the night before, shehad always had a crush on John and never wanted to admit it. She had only gone with KAnnan as a replacement with John but know she was so close to having John it

almost wanted to jump up and down.

--

Meanwhile

John was wrestling with the dark shadow that happened to be Kannan. He was trying to hit Jon with a knife

"This will teach you to mess with the women who belongs to you" he said as he brought the knife down towards his chest.

John barely got his arm in front of him in time. The knife went into is arm and John shouted in pain. He grabbed the knife holding on to is knife. Kannan stabbed John in thechest and then brought the hilt down across his forehead making him fall into darkness. Last thing he could think of was Teyla.

Kannan picked up the unconscious Col. not very carefully and dropped him in the chair, he handcuffed John's hands to the chair and pushed his head over.

"This is your fault Sheppard Teyla will be mine" he said and dropped John's hand as it fell to is chest.

--

Teyla felt something wrong and raced towards her quarters with the baby. She stepped to find her quarters dark and saw a terrible site. John was tied up to a chair and, a scratch covered is chest and was bleeding heavily. His forehead had a scrape across it and John was unconscious. She ran to him but not before putting Torren in his crib. She grabbed one of her scarfs and gently wrapped it around the knife wound in his chest.

"T'la?" he asked looking up at her with pained eyes.

"John who did this to you?" she asked.

"Kannan" he croaked as Teyla began to undo the handcuffs but suddenly she felt a gun against the back of her head and turned around with her hands up.

Kannan was standing right behind her.

"Teyla i would sit down if you do not want to lose your precious John" he said and shut the quarters door.
