Okay... John and Elizabeth have a talk about his hair. While Ronon and Teyla are soundly asleep.
Start: Chapter 4.
John awoke softly to the sound of birds chirping away to their merry songs. Suddenly, flashbacks and images of last night came back to him. The Hose. The Hide and Seek. The awful singing in the... Tent?
Ahh, he thought. He raised his head to see 3 other sleeping figures in the tent. The watch showed that it was 5:30am as he was trying to find some sort of mirror to see his hair. It was one of his personal embarrassments. John believes that the jet-black hair, had a mind of it’s own. It would mess its way up, no matter what you put on it.
A few brushes here and there have been broken, tonnes and tonnes of gel and other sticky substances have failed to keep it down, and his mother used to spend half an our every morning trying to put something similar to glue on it. But she had stopped since he was eleven. Some things never change.
John turned around and tried to get up out of the massive tent, when a moan was heard from underneath one of the blankets. The person that was sleeping next to him yawned.
John gulped. He hoped that the person didn’t wake up because of him.
Suddenly the head gently lifted itself up and started to rub their eyes.
It was Elizabeth. “Morning.” She said.
“Heh, morning to you to. Good night? I mean, considering you’ve only known us for 2 days…”
“Yeah it was fun. You fell asleep when we were playing Black Jack. Oh and John?”
“Yes?”
She couldn’t help but say, “Nice bed hair. You should show it more often.”
John felt the blush creeping and consuming his face.
“And why do you think that?”
“It’s quite erm... hope you don’t take it in the wrong way from me but…”
“But what?” John was eager to know.
“Its quite erm… sexy?”
The blush was brighter than ever. He had to look away, she was laughing so it was probably visible.
“Oh My.” He whispered.
Apparently Elizabeth heard because she lifted up her eyebrow in suspicion.
“Look.”
Elizabeth’s eyes followed John’s path and descended onto two figures curled up together.
“Mmmm…” Elizabeth sounded.
“God, I knew something was up with them two. They’re always quiet when I’m around.”
“Your so oblivious John. I’ve seen it since I first met Teyla. The way she looks at him and how they share glances. You really need to observe this stuff more often.”
“Mmmm… So… All those studying nights from last year have been a complete and utter lie.”
He thought hard as Elizabeth tried to see where he was taking this. Suddenly he had come to a realization.
“Holy Cow your right! Are you sure you don’t have some voodoo gift? Cos like I’ve been with them since I was 6, and I haven’t realised it.”
“No. It’s called ‘observing body language’ John. She started to giggle again. As irritating is it from other girls, it wasn’t with Eliza- Oh no. SCHOOL!
A million thoughts were running in and out of John’s mind.
“Elizabeth. Have your parents enrolled you yet?”
“Yeah, the day I met you 3, why?”
“Erm… It’s Monday and-”
“…Schools today?” she finished.
“Yup.”
John got up and out of the tent when Elizabeth spoke.
“As much I’d like to let them sleep there together, think we should wake them up?”
He thought hard.
“How about, we meet back here in half an hour, that’s about 6:30am, then we’ll figure a plan.”
“Alrighty then. See you in half an hour.”
She waved to him then skipped across the road. Wow. School was going to be interesting.
But John already had an idea. Payback with the Hose.
