By Bridget N.
OK, now I'm bored. And getting a little pissed off. I wish Rodney and Teyla would get their asses over here. Heh. Maybe Rodney's too busy snogging Carson. After all, the looks, the gestures, everything, it's so obvious between those two. They so dig each other. I have no idea what Teyla could be doing. I'm half tempted to page Liz and tell her that if Rodney and Teyla don't get over here, I'm going to leave without them. Hell, I've got the Ancient gene. I can pretty much do anything by myself...well, maybe not. I still need one more person to go with me on this mission, which is to explore the mainland some more. We hadn't been able to do that as of late, with all the crisis’s going on in the city.
Jeez, maybe I should have brought War and Peace with me. I could have finished two chapters by now. I mean, Rodney is never this late, and Teyla is hardly ever late at all. Where the hell are they??
A few minutes later, as I'm about to reach for my radio to page Rodney and ask where the hell he is, I hear footsteps from the back of the Jumper. Thank God, they're here. Now we can get a move on already!
I turn around and see Ford walking towards the front. Um...I didn't specifically ask for Ford to accompany me. But heck, he'll do. I hope he'll do me, too....
Where the hell did that come from??! Good thing I didn't say it out loud.
"Where's McKay?" I ask as he sits in the navigator's seat next to me.
"Rodney's with the other scientists working with their little alien doohikies or whatever, apparently it was too important to do anything else." Ford says. I could detect annoyance in his voice. I could relate.
"Teyla, however, is on the mainland in a meeting with the Athosians." Ford says. "At least someone has a good excuse."
"You ready to go, Ford?" I ask him. "Yup." He replies. I mentally turned on the engine and the Jumper comes to life, with all the lights and stuff coming on. The Jumper bay opens and off we go, flying over the water.
"You know, we still haven't named our ocean yet." Ford comments a few minutes later, startling me. For a moment, I was beginning to think that he wasn't going to talk to me at all.
"Ford, I thought I told you no more naming things." I chastise. "And anyway, I'm sure the Ancients named it already. We just don't know what they named it."
"Well, I hope they named it something cool." Ford says. I smile to myself. He is such a kid sometimes. That's probably why
I'm so protective of him. Of course, I've been caught in the face of danger as many times as he's been, but we protect each other.
That's why we click, as a team and as friends. I wish I only had feelings for him just as a friend, but lately it's been something more...
"I'm sure they did." I say, sort of sarcastically just to tease him. He smiles a little, which only widens my grin. He has such a sexy smile. My pulse quickens every time he smiles all the way, the one that lights up his eyes and could light up the whole room.
And then there's his body. I've seen him with his shirt off before and immediately my libido went on overdrive. I mean, he's not Arnold
Swartzenegger or anything, but he has nice biceps, muscular chest that I would love to run my hands over, and incredible flat abs. In many a dream I've pressed my body against his and....it led to something else from there. But it's very doubtful that I'll ever realize those dreams. I've noticed him eyeing Teyla lately. But who wouldn't? I mean, she is very beautiful. But I'm just not interested in her that way. I like women, don't get me wrong. But it's Aiden Ford that I have my eyes on. I wouldn't mind having my lips on him as well....
"Sir." Ford says, interrupting my thoughts. (Good thing he did, I was starting to get a hard-on thinking about his body.)
"What is it?" I ask, looking at him. Then I notice that he's looking straight ahead. I look in the direction he's looking and lo and behold, there's a big island about five miles ahead of us. It's beautiful, too, with palm trees, mountains, and-
"Is that a volcano?" Ford asks in awe, eyes lit with interest. He stares at a huge mountain with a round opening in the middle of it with steam coming out of it.
"It sure is." I reply. "And it looks like it's active, too." I make a mental note to tell Liz about it later once it's time for us to check in with her. "We better be careful when we go down there, it could erupt anytime we're there."
"Let's hope not." Ford says.
Five minutes later, we land the Jumper into a clearing. Its enough room to land on, and at the same time, it hides the
Jumper in case the Wraith or someone else tries to find us.
Ford and I step out into green rainforest. It's really beautiful. It's not too hot, but not too cold either, and it's sort of windy.
Perfect place for a vacation, if it wasn't for the active volcano right smack in the middle of the island. Ford pulls out his binoculars.
"Looks like the rainforest stretches out for the next few miles." He says.
"Well, then let's go." I reply, and we start walking north through the rainforest. A few minutes later, I ask, "Hey, I was gonna ask you, did you ever go to that party the Athosians had last weekend?"
"Nah, I had other things to do that day." Ford replied. "I would have loved to go, though."
I smirk and say, "Yeah, I bet Teyla would have loved for you to go too."
Ford turns to look at me. "What's that supposed to mean?"
"It means that....it seems she enjoys your company." I reply, hoping Ford wouldn't get flippant at me.
"Of course she enjoys my company, just like I enjoy hers and yours." Ford says calmly. "We're friends."
"And that's it?" I ask. "You just like her just as a friend?"
Ford smiles a bit. "Why do you want to know?" he asks. Then his smile widens into a mischievous grin. "You like Teyla, don't you?"
"No." I say, hoping he wouldn't press further. But he laughs, as if I was lying. Great, John, just great. You had to go and open your big mouth, didn't you?
"You do too!" He says, still laughing.
"Do not!" I snap back.
"Do too!" Ford says, grinning. I snort.
"What are you, a five-year-old?" I ask, rolling my eyes.
"You started it." He replies, shrugging.
I shake my head and continue on. Ford speeds up to keep up with me.
"Okay, if you don't like Teyla, who do you like?" He asks. My pulse jumps a beat. Ohgodohgodohgodohgod....think of something! Anything! But don't tell him you have a crush on him!
"I'd rather not say." Is that all you can come up with? Sheppard, you are truly pathetic.
"Come on, sir, I won't tell. Promise." he insists. I stop walking. I feel my shoulders tense up. Do I tell him? I could be risking my friendship with him if I do, not to mention my career. Then again, Elizabeth doesn't have to know. But if I tell Aiden that I have romantic feelings for him, he would either A. punch me. B. reject me and feel awkward around me or C. ask Liz to transfer off my team. I know it. And I don't want any of that to happen.
"Sir?" He says. I look at him. He's staring at me intently, waiting for my answer. I look into his deep ebony eyes. I could drown in those eyes. They're so intense, yet alluring. God, what the hell should I do?
But before I could think further, we hear a rumbling, and the ground starts to shake beneath our feet. Ford and I spin around towards the direction of the volcano. It was now spewing smoke and ash from it's core, and a few seconds later, ash fell from the sky on our heads.
"We better get off this island." Ford said. I nod, and not a second later we run through the rain forest to the Jumper. As we're running, I hear a thud and a painful cry. I spin around, and Ford is sprawled on the ground face down, face grimacing in pain. I quickly rush to him and help him up. But as soon as he stands, he groans in pain again.
"Dammit!" he shouts. "I think my ankle is broken." He braces him self on a tree, his injured foot elevated off the ground slightly. "Here, hang on to me." I tell him. He puts his arm around my shoulder, and I put my arm around his. We move as quickly as we can towards the Jumper. Another rumble beneath the ground almost knocks us down, but we recover and finally we get to the Jumper. I ease Ford down onto his seat and I jump into mine and I launch the Jumper off the ground. The Jumper reaches the altitude I want just as molten lava spews from the volcano high into the air and then cascades quickly down the side of it.
"That was incredible." Ford remarks as I turn the Jumper around and head back to Atlantis.
"Yeah." I reply. "Good thing we got our asses out of there just in time. You feeling OK?"
"My foot is killing me, but other than that, I'm fine. Thanks." Ford replies.
We get back to Atlantis a half hour later, only making small talk on the way. Something tells me that our conversation before the volcano erupted kind of made him feel awkward. Good lord, now I'm in trouble. Has he caught on to my feelings toward him? I hope not....
************************************************************************************************************
It's about 10 o'clock now. I feel exhausted. I think I'm gonna hit the hay now.
I walk past one of the observation decks on the way to my quarters. I glance at the figure standing there. I wonder who it is.
I look a little closer and I see a head of dark brown curls and I know it's Aiden Ford. I walk over to him and stand next to him. I notice a walking cast on his leg.
"Hey." I say. He turns to me and smiles just a little. "Hello, sir." he replies back
"Call me John. We're not on duty." I say to him. He nods.
"How's the ankle?" I ask.
"It's still hurting a little, but it's just sprained." Aiden replied. "Doc says I can be back on duty in about a week."
"That's good." I reply back. We lapse into companionable silence for a while. I glance back at Aiden. He looks troubled. I don't want him to look like that.
"What's on your mind?" I ask, breaking the silence. He doesn't say anything for a moment, then replies, "Our conversation back on the island." Damn. I knew he would say that. Well, I suppose he would want to talk about it sooner or later.
"What about it?" I ask, only delaying my own doom.
He appeared to be thinking for a second, then asked, "Do you trust me?"
"Of course, Aiden." I say without missing a beat. And it's true. I trust him with my life.
"Then would you believe me if I said I wouldn't tell anyone if you told me who you liked?" Aiden asked.
"Okay, here's the thing...." I say. "See...." I take a deep breath. "I like guys as well as girls."
"So do I." Aiden says.
"You do?" I ask, turning to look at him. "Wow, I would have never guessed. I mean, you flirt with girls all the time."
"I like women, too." Aiden says. "But so far none of the guys here interest me."
Well, great. That settles that. I start to tense up until he adds, "Except one."
"Who?" I ask. My pulse is quickening. I've got to know who it is!
"You."
My jaw just totally dropped. Oh my god, please tell me he's serious!
"Are you serious?" I ask, just to be absolutely sure. He turns to look me straight in the eye.
"Yes."
He's serious! YES!
He smiles his wonderful smile at me. I'm smiling too, or more like grinning like an idiot.
"Well, it just so happens that you interest me, too." I say.
Now it's his turn to be shocked. "Really?" He says. "Yes," I reply.
"That's good to know." He says, smiling sexily.
We stare into each other's eyes for a moment, waiting for each other to say or do something. I lick my lips nervously, and my palms are beginning to sweat. Pace yourself, Johnny boy. Don't want to take this too fast.
"So....where do we go from here?" I ask.
"Well..I was hoping you could kiss me." Aiden says, stepping closer to me. Oh yeah, I think that could be arranged. I love his initiative.
I step closer to him and put my hands on his face. Our lips draw closer to each other until they brush sensually. Our kiss starts out gentle and sweet, our lips gliding over one another. My god, we've only been kissing for 30 seconds and already I'm feeling light headed. This man can kiss! His tongue pushes against mine and my lips part to let his tongue penetrate my mouth. Our tongues duel passionately, and our bodies are now pressed together. I can feel his erection against mine. He moans low in his throat and runs his fingers through my hair. His callused fingertips feel divine caressing my hair.
When our need for air becomes too much, we break the kiss and I start kissing and nibbling Aiden's jaw, and then I move down to suck on his neck. He moans softly and squeezes my ass. Wow. That definitely turned me on. I'm so dizzy with desire. I could come right here in the corridor with Aiden rubbing against me like that. Oh god, I want him. And he definitely wants me.
I whisper in his ear, "Your quarters or mine?"
"I don't care." He answers breathlessly.
"OK, then...lead the way." I say, and with that, he grabs my hand and we head for his quarters as fast as we could walk there. When we get there, the door closes behind us and we go back to kissing passionately. After a few seconds, he leads me to the bedroom. I lay him gently down on it and straddle his hips, careful not to hurt his bandaged ankle. He yanks me down by my dog tags and devours my mouth, sucking on my tongue gently. His hands roam up to under my shirt and he feels up my chest. I feel my nipples harden at his touch.
He undoes my pants, and then undoes his. We quickly rid our selves of the rest of our clothing and crash back down onto the bed. We're all over each other now. Aiden is the one straddling me this time, sucking my neck just below my jaw and bucking his hips against mine. I'm moaning now, running my fingers through his hair. I wrap my legs around him and push upward against his thrusts. I relish the feeling of his silky smooth skin gliding against mine. We're getting closer to the edge now. Aiden drives harder and faster against me.
"Oh, God, Aiden." I whisper breathlessly.
He thrusts against me a few more times and then cries out in pleasure. I feel his body stiffen and he moans my name as he comes, the warm wetness spraying my stomach in long spurts. At that moment, I feel my release overtake me. I yell out Aiden's name as my back arches off the bed and I come so hard I swear I can see stars.
Aiden collapses against me, his head slumping down on my shoulder. We both try to catch our breaths. After a minute or so, our breathing and pulses return to almost a normal rate. I can feel Aiden's heartbeat against my chest. It's beating in time with mine. I wrap my arms around his waist and kiss him on his temple.
He rolls off me and pulls the covers over us, then kisses me gently on the lips. He lays his head on my shoulder once again.
"That was nice." He says sleepily.
"Try incredibly hot." I reply.
He smiles. "Mmm, that too."
I smile back at him and hold him close to me. I feel myself drift off to sleep. But before I let sleep overtake me, I have to tell Aiden one thing. I take a deep breath and tell him the one thing I've wanted to say for a long time.
"I love you."
His head comes off of my shoulder. I open my eyes and look into intense ebony orbs gazing at me in disbelief.
"What did you say?" he asks. I start to inwardly panic. Have I said the wrong thing here?
"Aiden, I love you. I mean that." I tell him, caressing his cheek. "It's not just about sex. It's about me and you. Together. I've wanted this for so long, Aiden. But if this was just a one night stand...."
"No!" Aiden says urgently, sitting up. "This wasn't some one night stand! I don't one night stands. I want to be with you like this every night. I love you, too, John.....I just never thought you'd love me back."
"I'm here, aren't I?" I said.
"Yeah...hopefully you'll be here tomorrow night." Aiden says, smiling, and settling back down on the bed.
"And the next night...and the next...." I trail off, nibbling his earlobe, which makes him giggle. I like his giggle, so I bite it gently again. He laughs sexily and kisses me on the lips softly, then lays his head back down.
We fall asleep, and for the first time, I sleep easy knowing that I will dream about Aiden and wake up in his arms.
PS. This is my first Sheppard/Ford fic so please be honest in your feedback.

I lay him gently down on it and straddle his hips, careful not to hurt his bandaged ankle. He yanks me down by my dog tags and devours my mouth, sucking on my tongue gently. His hands roam up to under my shirt and he feels up my chest. I feel my nipples harden at his touch.
He undoes my pants, and then undoes his. We quickly rid our selves of the rest of our clothing and crash back down onto the bed. We're all over each other now. Aiden is the one straddling me this time, sucking my neck just below my jaw and bucking his hips against mine. I'm moaning now, running my fingers through his hair. I wrap my legs around him and push upward against his thrusts. I relish the feeling of his silky smooth skin gliding against mine. We're getting closer to the edge now. Aiden drives harder and faster against me.
"Oh, God, Aiden." I whisper breathlessly.
He thrusts against me a few more times and then cries out in pleasure. I feel his body stiffen and he moans my name as he comes, the warm wetness spraying my stomach in long spurts. At that moment, I feel my release overtake me. I yell out Aiden's name as my back arches off the bed and I come so hard I swear I can see stars.
Aiden collapses against me, his head slumping down on my shoulder. We both try to catch our breaths. After a minute or so, our breathing and pulses return to almost a normal rate. I can feel Aiden's heartbeat against my chest. It's beating in time with mine. I wrap my arms around his waist and kiss him on his temple.
He rolls off me and pulls the covers over us, then kisses me gently on the lips. He lays his head on my shoulder once again.
"That was nice." He says sleepily.
"Try incredibly hot." I reply.
He smiles. "Mmm, that too."
I smile back at him and hold him close to me. I feel myself drift off to sleep. But before I let sleep overtake me, I have to tell Aiden one thing. I take a deep breath and tell him the one thing I've wanted to say for a long time.
"I love you."
His head comes off of my shoulder. I open my eyes and look into intense ebony orbs gazing at me in disbelief.
"What did you say?" he asks. I start to inwardly panic. Have I said the wrong thing here?
"Aiden, I love you. I mean that." I tell him, caressing his cheek. "It's not just about sex. It's about me and you. Together. I've wanted this for so long, Aiden. But if this was just a one night stand...."
"No!" Aiden says urgently, sitting up. "This wasn't some one night stand! I don't one night stands. I want to be with you like this every night. I love you, too, John.....I just never thought you'd love me back."
"I'm here, aren't I?" I said.
"Yeah...hopefully you'll be here tomorrow night." Aiden says, smiling, and settling back down on the bed.
"And the next night...and the next...." I trail off, nibbling his earlobe, which makes him giggle. I like his giggle, so I bite it gently again. He laughs sexily and kisses me on the lips softly, then lays his head back down.
We fall asleep, and for the first time, I sleep easy knowing that I will dream about Aiden and wake up in his arms.
PS. This is my first Sheppard/Ford fic so please be honest in your feedback.
