John and Elizabeth entered a surprisingly quiet infirmary. Looking to their right they both froze. One gurney held a body with a white sheet covering it. Looking further they saw Dr. Cole draping a sheet over another body.
They looked around for Carson, but didn’t see him. “Dr. Cole,” Elizabeth spoke in a quiet voice. “Where’s Dr. Beckett?”
Dr. Cole lifted her head and looked at them with tired sad eyes. “He’s in his office with Laura and Dr. Mensinger.”
“Is Laura…?” Elizabeth began.
“She’s fine,” Dr. Cole. “A bit shaken up though. Half her team was killed.”
Laura came out of Carson’s office a few minutes later followed by Carson and Dr. Marianne Messinger a biologist on her team. Both women looked shaken up, but none more than Messinger.
“Sir, Ma’am,” Cadman straightened up looking at Sheppard and Weir.
“At ease, Lieutenant,” John said and Laura relaxed a fraction.
“Why don’t we discuss this in the morning,” Elizabeth suggested.
John looked at Elizabeth and nodded. “Sounds like a good idea,” he nodded at Cadman.
The two women took that as permission to leave and did so.
“If you’ll excuse me,” Carson said.
“Take care of her, Carson,” Elizabeth said.

John and Elizabeth walked down a hall together. Neither had spoken for the last few minutes. When they got to Elizabeth’s door, John turned to look at her. “Elizabeth, are you okay?”
She sighed. “I’ll never get use to this.”
“I’d be worried if you did,” he said. “Want some company?”
Elizabeth considered saying no, but the truth was she didn’t want to be alone. She nodded and led John into her quarters.
When the door shut on them John grabbed her around the waist and pulled her into his arms. They stayed that way until Elizabeth began to yawn.
“Come on,” he encouraged getting her to sit on her bed. He took off her shoes and she looked up at him. His hand came up and rested on the side of her face before he leaned down and kissed her.
Her hands came up to his back and worked their way under his t-shirt. He pulled away enough to get his shirt off. “Are you sure about this?” He asked her.
“Yes,” she said kissing along his collar bone.
He got her undressed and laying back on the mattress before he finished with his own clothes and climbed in next to her.
They made love slowly. It wasn’t hot and sweaty with fireworks going off behind their eyes. Nor did it last for a long time. It was quiet and loving. And afterwards they fell asleep in each other’s arms.

Carson had gone back to Earth with Laura to bring her fallen teammates home. They would be back in a couple of weeks. Dr. Messenger who had been so shaken by the experience left as well not sure if she was planning to come back.
John began to spend most nights with Elizabeth in her quarters.
“I’ve been thinking,” John said curled up behind Elizabeth in bed.
“Sounds dangerous,” she said.
“Funny,” he tickled her stomach which had her knees moving up to protect her as she screeched. “Seriously,” he said a few minutes later.
“All right,” she turned over to look at him.
“I’ve been thinking about getting back out there.”
“You’d have to find a team,” she said.
“Well yeah,” he said. “I don’t think my boss would approve otherwise and my girlfriend would send me back to my room alone,” he kissed Elizabeth.
“Got any ideas yet?” She asked after they separated.
“There should be some new guys arriving on the Daedalus in a couple of weeks,” John said. “I’ll see what comes of it first.”
“Sounds like a plan,” Elizabeth snuggled against John’s side as they drifted off together.
