Chapter 18:

A few hours later, Aiden and Brie were still asleep in each other's arms, but the buzzing of a radio infiltrates Aiden's hyperactive hearing.

'Lieutenant O'Neill, you're needed on the bridge.'

Aiden scrunches his face, but obeys. Getting up, strapping his boots, zipping up his jacket, he makes sure Brie was comfortable, when he was sure she was, he kisses her on the head, and leaves.

Arriving, the entire bridge was watching his every move, until he saw the reason, Captain Hailey was there, and she was giving him the stink eye. "You are really reckless! Infiltrating an enemy base without backup, you could've gotten your whole team killed!".

Aiden merely did his best Teal'c impression, "Last time I checked, all of them came back alive. What's your point?".

She marches up to him, but it was hard to be intimidating if you are half the man's size. "Are you smart-mouthing me?!".

Luckily, Pendergast stepped in, "Enough, captain stand down! Lieutenant O'Neill did his job, brought his men back and successfully destroyed an enemy base, and with the Goa'uld tech intact, we can consider colonizing Mars. He deserves the medal of honour in my opinion!".

Hailey, pissed at the fact her superior sided with this half-bred freak, stomps out.

Pendergast merely turns to Aiden, "My apologies Lieutenant, Captain Hailey is quite arrogant.".

"I realized, sir." He stands at attention, salutes, and leaves. He needs a break. A break from the beaurocrats, politicians, the whole thing, he needs a vacation. On Earth, he needs a weekend at the cabin.

Earth, 3 days later.

Throwing his line, *plopping* into the pond, and reeling in, he can merely sit and relax. "Ah, much better.".

From inside, "Babe! I can't find the ginger ale." It was Brie, duh.

"Try the pantry!" he chuckles, she didn't say what she was gonna wear, but he recon a black shirt, denim jacket, and some sweats, shoes, meh, he knows nothing when it comes to shoes.

She exits, in not what he expected, a crop top and super short shorts. With sandals. "Bloody hell." Is all he can say. "Do you look that sexy in everything you wear?".

She rolls her eyes, walking up to him and bumps her side against his shoulder. "I can say the same to you.".

Smirking as she passes him, staring at her perfect six, and imitating a whistle. "Damn girl, where did you get that perfect set up?" was all he could say. Brie smiles to him, "Well, I work out, two hours a day, then, I go through this machine I am not supposed to talk about, classified, along with super sexy man, who's actually not from this world, he has these beautiful blue eyes, this electrifying smile, and amazing muscle. The perfect man.".

Aiden smirks even more, "Sounds like I have competition.".

"Oh, I guess you do." Lips meeting halfway. But their kissing got interrupted by a small Roswell ally. "Aiden I, oh dear.".

"THOR!" the teens yell.

"My sincerest apologies, but Aiden, I bring terrible news.".
