[LC] Outside by the 'Gate (for sevenvirtues)

[shepcrew]

After leaving the gorup and grabbing his share of the gear, John's by the DHD sorting through the packs and making sure he's got everything. He's distracted by random thoughts and trying to not think about things by going through the packs yet again.

Ronon's already come and gone, presumably headed back into the cafe to help out McKay.

He's here for someone to find him, if they so chose...

"I wish I could come with you..." It's barely a hot breath over his cheek, melting into him as she does. Brushing a kiss over the curve of his jaw.

She's completely forgotten that they're right outside the cafe, in a public place.

He's forgotten, too. He's almost forgotten about his team, too. But hell. They can wait.

Again, those words press against his lips and he conveys them with another lingering kiss to her cheek, this one delicate and fragile.

And again, it sends a shiver down her spine when he says it without saying it, one of those little tiny gestures. Her fingertips glide up along his chest, trace over his collarbone. Her hand curves along his shoulder and she wants to whisper it so badly and doesn't dare, yet.

The tiny sigh he emits says I'm going to miss you, and his hand finally wraps gently around her arm, his thumb absently caressing her skin.

She's going to miss him too, oh so much. She wants to tell him but if the words come out then other ones will as well, and so she makes it into a soft kiss at the lower curve of his jaw. Over his cheek. At the corner of his mouth.

And he looks at her, committing her face to memory, ghosting a hand over her features.

He gives her a half-smile.

She smiles softly back, fingertips brushing over the back of his hand. It's going to be hard, being apart. But they'll get through it. And they'll see each other soon.

She doesn't let herself think about the alternative, still.
