Day 50, noonish; Infirmary; Attn: McKay, Beckett [f]

John had dozed fitfully, starting awake almost as soon as he began to dream, too conscious of the danger there even in sleep. Every noise wakened him, body already tensing in preparation for fight or flight. The nurse's arrival with lunch was the most recent interruption. He smiled charmingly at her as he took his tray and then studied the ( Read more... )

Rodney walked into the infirmary, his stomach growling again as he watched nurses handing out lunch and helping patients eating. He knew he had a powerbar somewhere in his pockets, and he seriously considered opening and eating it right here right now. Having to watch others eat while he was hungry was the closest thing to torture he knew ( ... )

John raised an eyebrow and then silently took a bite, intentionally savouring it just to irk Rodney, closing his eyes and chewing thoughtfully while making little appreciative noises. I wasn't actually all that bad. It just wasn't what he wanted and he wasn't all that hungry to begin with. He opened his eyes and watched Rodney staring at him as he tore off a piece of the cake-ish thing and dropped it in his mouth. "So," he said, then licked the crumbs off his fingers, "you came to watch me eat or are you just here to gloat?"

Rodney's mouth watered and he hated Sheppard, if possible, even more. The bastard chewed with gusto, slowly tearing at his food and popping it into his mouth.

"No, I'm just here to gloat," he gave back defensively, glaring at the man. But somehow he coldn't manage to keep a straight face and grinned sheepishly. "So, um. You got injured."

"It's not that bad, actually," John answered, waving vaguely with his spoon. "I'm mostly here because your boyfriend decided I need more sleep." He knew Rodney hated the term 'boyfriend' for Carson. He watched to see what effect it would have.

Rodney frowned. He didn't like the term "boyfriend". It sounded so... immature. Granted, Carson and him had been behaving like hormone-crazed teenagers, which had been fun and very satisfying. And Carson was anything but a "boy".

"Yeah, you know how he gets," Rodney said with a shrug. "Be glad he's not your boyfriend. If he's unhappy he's not only sending me to bed." A grin was creeping on his face as he remembered how Carson had shown him how he was not happy about Rodney's reaction when he shouted at Radek.
