Chapter 4 – While you were sleeping

Teyla sighed, she didn't know if it was her cluttered mind that was doing this but the trip seemed to be taking longer than usual.

"Are you all right?"

"I am"

"Then let's go we're here" Teyla was surprised, she barely noticed but she followed John all the same. It was getting late in the afternoon and when they got back to their room all Teyla wanted to do was rest, she sat down on the bed and sighed again.

"John I think I will rest now"

"Ok" he said walking over to her and kissing her forehead, he picked up his earpiece and said "call me over the radio if you need anything"

"Ok" she yawned and took off her boots before lying down in bed and falling asleep quickly. John smiled as he left their room, perfect, he had plenty of time to set up her little surprise, going into the kitchen he collected everything he needed before leaving quickly.

Teyla awoke slowly to see John sitting on a chair looking at her

"I didn't hear you come in"

"I know, that's the point, did you sleep well?"

"Yes, I feel much better now"

"That's good"

"Come on, let's go get dinner"

"I believe I should change first" she said

"Ok, but don't wear your Atlantis gear" Teyla smiled at him, only noticing for the first time that he wasn't wearing his Atlantis gear either. She showered and changed quickly, she wore a long skirt similar to her sparring skirt and a spaghetti strap shirt with a bare back except for a few crossing straps John's mouth fell open as she emerged from the bathroom and she smiled again

"Teyla, you look wonderful" Yet again she only answered with a smile he walked over to her and slipped an arm around her waist leading her out of their room.

As they left a person stood in the shadows observing them walk toward the nearest transporter. When they entered it and left they slipped into their room unknowing to any prying eyes.

John and Teyla stepped out of the transporter and Teyla looked around, this wasn't anywhere near the dining room at all.

"John, where are you taking me?"

"You'll see, close your eyes"

"Why?"

"Just do it please?" Teyla obliged and he lead her out onto the top of Atlantis, There was a balcony up the very top and john had set up a small table with a white table cloth (really it was a small sheet but they didn't bring table cloths to Atlantis) with two candles and set the table with a lovely meal. "Ok, Open" Teyla was speechless

"Oh John, did you do this all for me?"

"Of course, while you were sleeping"

"It's so beautiful out here"

"Yes, it is" he said looking into her eyes she blushed and smiled at him as he lead her over to a seat, he pulled it out for her and she sat down. They began o eat and Teyla caught John looking at her constantly throughout the meal.

"Teyla, you are so beautiful tonight" she looked down into her food and blushed she was having the desired effect on him. They finished eating and he brought out a dessert cooked specially for them that night, when they had finished that he produced a small box and presented it to her

"I know we're already getting married but back on Earth when a man decides he wants to marry a woman he does so with a ring and well we just decided so I picked this out for you" she opened the box and looked at a beautifully set diamond ring with one heart-shaped diamond on a silver ring

"Oh John, It's beautiful" he took it out of the box and slipped it onto her finger, helping her up and kissing her deeply

"I love you Teyla"

"I love you too" They kissed again before leaving the balcony to go back to their room, he had arranged for someone to come and move all this stuff back later.

They got back to their room and opening the door they gasped at the sight of their room.
