Another John/Teyla fic...I'm on a roll :))
This is for a challenge response i did from Gateworld.
It was a one-shot and the challenge was to start with the sentence I never wanted to be in love
I wrote this one in first person John POV. That's a first for me I think. :))

Possession Sucks
I never wanted to be in love, but with Teyla I never stood a chance. The moment my eyes fell upon her for the first time I knew I was doomed. Even if I didn’t want to admit it to myself at the time. Now she‘s holding a gun to my head. Well, technically it’s not me, but an Alien that has pretty much hijacked my brain. Thalen is what he calls himself. I just know him as the son of a bitch that has taken over my body and is trying his best to destroy people I consider to be family. He has done one thing for me though. Thalen, using my voice, told Teyla what I never had the courage to say.
“He cares for you more than you know.”
The words echo back and forth in my crowded brain, but no matter how I try to deny the truth in them....I can’t. This alien has forced me to see the truth I have been hiding from myself for over a year.
I’m in love with Teyla Emmagen.
Thalen is staring at her with my eyes, and she’s looking back. I see so many emotions flash across her lovely face. Surprise, hope, longing....and finally despair. Damn him, this only makes it harder on her, but I know this woman better than most. Teyla will shoot me to save all those lives, and she knows it’s what I’d want her to do.
I see the pain she’s trying to hide behind those soul piercing brown orbs as she takes aim.
“Forgive me John.”
I want to tell her it’s okay, she has no other choice, that there is nothing to forgive. Unfortunately, I’ve been possessed and my little alien buddy will have none of that from me. It doesn’t stop me from fighting against him every chance I get, I can tell I’m beginning to get on his nerves. That gives me a small measure of satisfaction.
I can feel Thalen’s fear as he realizes what I already knew.
She’s strong, a born leader. Even if she might love me back, she would pull that trigger.
It’s one of the many things I love about her.
Now if only she didn’t have to shoot me, I might have had the chance to tell her that.
Possession sucks.
Feedback like always is love...i need it LOL :)))
