Fic: Snowbirds from Atlantis (PG)
His teammates were enjoying themselves nearby, mingling with the other Miami, Florida beachgoers. Well, Ronon and Teyla were; Rodney was sleeping underneath one of the largest beach umbrellas John had ever seen, a ridiculous-looking stripe of sunblock that he had missed rubbing in completely making its meandering path across his forehead. John lazily debated whether or not to tell the astrophysicist about it, but decided not to. Rodney would figure it out eventually, and it was amusing to see the normally fastidious man sleeping with a mess on his head.
Ronan and Teyla revelled in the carefree atmosphere of the beach, enjoying themselves immensely. There were a few small children playing near the large Satedan, totally unconcerned with their proximity. Their mothers, on the other hand, watched nervously as Ronon and Teyla initiated a splashing war with each other. The kids instantly joined in, not caring who they splashed, as long as they got someone wet. John smiled when he saw Ronon allow the kids to clamber over him like a jungle gym in the shallow water, a goofy grin on the ex-Runner’s face.
It was good to see his team relax, especially when times had been so stressful lately. Well, no matter. The SGC was footing the bill for this vacation, and John intended to enjoy it to the fullest.
Now, if he could get a margarita with extra limes in, just to tease Rodney, it'd be perfect.
