Reassurance

The camera above Vala's door blinks idly, her only other watch-guard at midnight. Daniel steps softly into her VIP room. She turns toward him in her sleep, blue silk sliding down her arm. She really is beautiful when she's quiet.

He shouldn't watch her sleep, but she's here and alive and he just needs to reassure himself for a moment. That's all this is: reassurance. Just checking to make sure that finding her wasn't a dream.

When he gently brushes the hair from her mouth, her lips twitch in a kiss and something deep in his stomach knots.

Just reassurance.

Oh wow. This is so beautiful! It's very Daniel, and very sweet and heartbreaking. Excellent work!

[theemdash]

Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I think it's pretty clear that no matter how Daniel resists his feelings for Vala, he does have some.

[groovekittie.livejournal.com]

I totally agree! And I think you captured that perfectly. I can probably list a dozen incidences in the past season that would agree with you too. ;)

[theemdash]

Thank you again. Always nice to hear when other people are seeing the same things I'm seeing.

Awww. . .

I just posted a D/V drabble, too. Great minds think alike. ;)

[theemdash]

There are 53 D/V fics up at alldanielfic! ;)

I've got another one I'm working on now. It's a bit longer than a drabble, but on the short side. We'll see if I can get it up tonight....

[lmichelle599.livejournal.com]

I just uploaded one, too. So there will be 54 soon. I'm pretty sure half half the D/V stories on that site are mine. *g*

[theemdash]

They probably are. I know that I only have a small handful of D/V fics.

So sweet. Daniel is so very mcuh in denial.

[theemdash]

Daniel is in denial about a lot of things. ;)

[xfirefly9x.livejournal.com]

Very sweet! =)

[theemdash]

Thanks!

[theemdash]

Thank you. I'm always taken by how Daniel is finally able to rescue the girl (he lost Sha're and Sarah [to a certain extent anyway]), so being able to find Vala must have been an utter relief.

Plus he's in serious denial. ;)

Oh Daniel, do you really think it is a coincedence that denial is an anagram of Daniel? *pets him*

[theemdash]

Oh, totally.

But Daniel is afraid of Vala, so he's going to deny it for a long time.

Teehee. That icon is funny. :D
