Author: sg_lab
Summary: John and Elizabeth have plans, but Rodney's holding things up.
Pairings/Characters: Established relationship Sheppard/Weir, McKay, ofc
Rating: K
Disclaimer: No one except Maddie belongs to me. No money is being made from this.
Notes: This is for Ronnikins at GW. The first line was the inspiration and Ronnikins wanted something from that line I came up with.
Beta: No, I just wrote this in about an hour.
“McKay, are you about done with that thing?” John looked at his watch for the hundredth time in the last hour. It was just himself and Rodney on this mission. They had been here before and the planet was deemed safe enough for just the two of them since Ronon and Teyla were given the day off for their anniversary. “I have plans with Elizabeth tonight.”
“No, really?” Rodney’s came out from under the console he was studying to stare at the other man. “Unless it has escaped your memory, I was roped into baby-sitting your child tonight.”
“And we really appreciate it, Rodney,” John tried for his most sincere face.
Rodney’s eyes squinted. “Uhuh.” He stuck his head back under the console.
“Maddie really likes you for some reason,” John heard a grunt from under the console. It was true. John and Elizabeth had heard several reports that their two year old daughter had been seen following the scientist around the city many times. The toddler was a slippery child. Her parents were thinking they should leash her. So far though, every time she would slip off, they would find her sitting in Rodney’s lab pushing buttons on a notebook computer Rodney would give her whenever she showed up. Rodney would then contact her parents letting them know where she was before he continued with his own work.
“That was a complete and utter waste of a whole week,” Rodney crawled out from under the console brushing off the dust from his clothes.
“Can we go now?” John asked.
“Yes, we can go now.”
The two men returned to Atlantis going straight to the infirmary for their post mission exams.
“Wodney!” A child’s squeal pierced the quiet of the infirmary.
“I’m glad to see you two back in one piece,” Elizabeth said as she entered the infirmary with Maddie in her arms. “Is there anything interesting to report?”
“Apparently it was a complete waste of time,” John said before giving his wife and daughter a quick kiss.
“Wodney,” Maddie repeated squirming in her mother’s arms.
Elizabeth set her daughter down on the floor. “She’s already had her dinner so you don’t have to worry about that.”
“Well, I haven’t had my dinner,” Rodney grumbled.
“You can take her to the commissary,” Elizabeth handed him a small covered cup with a little spout on the side. “Give her some milk and a couple Athosian cookies.”
“Wodney,” Maddie tugged on Rodney’s pant leg.
“Yeah, yeah,” Rodney sighed turning toward the door.
“Thank you, Rodney,” Elizabeth said giving Maddie a quick kiss. “We’ll pick her up around ten.”
Rodney waived without looking at them and continued out the door hearing little feet following him.
John and Elizabeth grinned watching their daughter follow behind Rodney while her favorite blanky dragged alongside her.
