Oct. 16th, 2007 10:42 pmSo...I joined the
anotheratlantis ficathon when I got back from
jacklemmon's. I was bad and didn't make the deadline, but I figured I'd post the fic here. Just as a forewarning - it's definitely a rough draft.
Lorne is a lonely geologist that wants love. His best friend Cadman has set him up on numerous failed dates with men and women. What she doesn't know is that Lorne secretly desires Atlantis Corp's VP: Rodney McKay.
Rodney McKay is too busy to be lonely, at least that's what he tells his therapist Heightmeyer. In truth, though, he knows who he wants to ask out, he's just too chicken. So he goes through the day conducting researching, programming computers, and cyberstalking head of Corporate Security: John Sheppard.
John Sheppard leads too risky a job to get involved, or so he tells his boss Elizabeth Weir whenever she asks if he's lonely. The truth is, every day a geologist comes in and gives him bagels, a geologist with broad shoulders and bright eyes and a gorgeous smile. But John doesn't want to risk hurting anyone by being hurt on the job, so he works and pretends Lorne is just another person.
Fortunately, the three blonds--Heightmeyer, Cadman, and Weir--get together for a girl's night out and decide to solve the problems of their brooding male acquaintances in an unconventional way. Emmagan and Dex Retreat facility is a romantic getaway for the non-standard romantic partners, and the three women buy John, Lorne, and Rodney a ticket in the hopes they'll take a chance.
And now onto the fic.
