When she enters the cafeteria, John is wearing a pair of glasses perched on the end of his nose as far as they’ll go without falling off. Around him, a table of women from the Atlantis mission team are going between grinning madly and giggling at him. Their attention seems to encourage his childish behaviour (which is not endearing, she tells herself and as she watches, he removes the glasses only to tilt his head back and replace them with a spoon.
She takes the opportunity to walk over while he is distracted.
His balancing act is rather impressive – or it would be if she wasn’t madly against the idea of admitting it. She watches him for a moment and then clears her throat. Loudly.
John jumps at the noise and his spoon is reunited with the table. “Whoa! Elizabeth!”
“Hello, John.”
One of the women frowns at her. She smiles back.
“What’s up?” John asks. He puts the palms of his hands flat on the table in front of him, turns and finally looks at her properly. “Huh. Wow, Elizabeth! You look-“
“Yes?” she smirks.
“Uh, wow!” Mouth jutting open slightly, he stares at her.
“I’m sorry, Colonel. I didn’t quite catch that.”
“You look beautiful,” he says. Not taking his eyes from hers, he feels for his glasses on the table and grabs them. He runs his tongue over his lips. “:If you’ll excuse me, ladies,” he says, “my date has arrived.”
“Yeah, she has,” she confirms with a smirk.
“You ready to go, Elizabeth?” He stands up and reaches for her hand, the woman at the table behind him already forgotten and scowling at them both.
“Oh,” she said, “I’ve been ready for awhile now.”
