Turning the Corner


"You are insatiable, Samantha."

She rolled atop him and mocked, grinning, "Worn out, Mighty Tok'ra?"

Martouf yawned and closed his eyes. "Yes. Sorry. Morrigan's not stupid. Escaping was difficult."

"Then rest." She put her head down on his chest and listened to his steady, reassuring heartbeat awhile. "Sometimes... I wish …"

His fingers trailed gently up her spine. "What, love?"

"That you didn't have to go," she admitted, whispering. "I'm always afraid you won't come back."

"I hate going so far from you. I wish I could stay."

"Maybe you can," she said.

His eyes snapped open, brilliant with hope.

*tries to herd some of her bunnies in the direction of other authors but no one notices so they wander back*

Good writing Lizardbeth.

thanks!

Though I'd warn you against herding any bunnies my way. My bunnies are vicious and territorial and liable to attack at small provocation. :)
