HELP!! I can't think of a good title!! Nekkid Shep for the first person who comes up with something clever! ;)

EDIT
Alas, I'm going to have to go with wildcat88's suggestion for a title. However, I think everyone deserves a nekkid Shep! ^_~



I glanced up at Teyla, only she saw Thalen, not me. I had tried to reason with him, but gave up because it didn't seem to do any good. Suddenly Teyla had her P-90 trained on us.

I heard Thalen try to convince her it was me. I know she won't believe it. I wanted to shout at her, tell her it was all right for her to fire that weapon. She knows me better than anyone, she will do what she has to do.

I hope Elizabeth's all right. I can only imagine how she's dealing with this. I don't think she's ever fired a gun. At least not at real people. After the Genii took over the city, she insisted on learning how to use a 9 mil.

If I don't destroy her, Sheppard, Phoebus will. She is angry at me for leaving her. For falling in love with another who was on our enemies' side. She will not forgive me.

Thalen paused. I am sorry for this. I had no idea she would harbor these feelings for so long. I will leave you now...

I felt a sharp pain in my head and then nothing for a few minutes. I blinked to see Teyla standing over me. She doesn't believe it's me so I won't even try to convince her.

When I woke up, I was safely enconced in an infirmary bed, head still pounding unmercifully. I looked to my right to see Elizabeth sleeping soundly. "Hey, Carson," I said as the physician walked over.

"Colonel," he replied.

I flinched as he shined the pen light in my eyes. "Ouch!"

"A bit light sensitive."

"A bit?"

He smiled. "Sorry, Colonel."

"How long did it take for Thalen to..."

Carson jotted something in my chart before replying. "From what I could tell he was gone before you even got here, but since I didn't have the equipment to check, I don't know exactly when."

I nodded. "I think it was just after I shot Elizabeth, or Phoebus, rather. Thalen left her for another woman. A woman who was on the other side of their war. Apparently Phoebus didn't take it so well."

"Ya think so, Lad?" Carson said with a chuckle.

"How's Elizabeth?"

"She's doing better. Phoebus has been gone for about an hour."

I sighed in relief. "That's good to hear."

"Aye," Carson replied.

I watched as Elizabeth slept peacefully. I could still feel the softness of her lips on mine... how they tasted.... Whoa there, Shep!

"Colonel?"

"I didn't do anything!"

Carson stared at me in confusion. "I didn't say you did, but I have never seen your face so red."

I cleared my throat. "My headache is worse," I lied, effectively lying down and ending the conversation.

"Think you can lie to me..." I heard Carson mutter as he left the room.
