Summary: Teal'c is glad to have found his new lover, Ronon Dex!
Info: This is set in the land of SGA, but is more from Teal'c's point of view

Teal'c knew that his friend and long-time colleague, Samantha Carter, had probably figured out why he kept coming back through the Atlantis Gate... He knew that she could be counted on for discretion, too.

His reason was Ronon Dex. Now that Teal'c had found a lover like him, he could not just forget that first night, and not come back for more!

He wondered if any more of his and Ronon's colleagues had figured out their secret – Had realised exactly why the two men spent so long locked away in the gym, or as much time in the sauna! Teal'c had seen John Sheppard and Doctor McKay exit the sauna often enough to know that they were regular visitors, too, and he wondered if they had the same idea as he and Ronon did when they got in there. They always turned up the Sauna's heat, and got right down to turning up the heat between them... It was a glorious battle, one where his strength was matched, but things never got out of hand... No, indeed, there was a lot of in-hand stuff going on! The two men always played fair, sharing the pleasures and positions equally between them. There weren't many that Teal'c would feel comfortable enough to do that with, but now, any competition was only part of the game. Neither man had to prove himself to the other, not since they had fought side by side, and Teal'c felt more at home, and more understood with Ronon than he ever had in all his years of life... He had had male lovers. He'd lived over a hundred years after all, and, in that time, he had found himself attracted to or in love with, at different times, men and women... He'd known that he was what the Tauri called Bisexual for a very, very long time... And, yet, he could still be surprised. He was surprised that he could feel so much for Ronon, that he could feel so much with Ronon, though his pride and self-respect would probably never let him confess the latter... Maybe, to Ronon, one day. Maybe...

He knew that, in a lot of ways, Ronon's life, love, and relationships reflected his own. He knew that he and Ronon understood one another completely... The connection between them, Tauri cliché as it seemed to be to describe such things this way, was so complete... They could give what they needed, receive what they needed, and just enjoy the privilege of being together, the blessing of having found one another. Ronon enriched his life, made him feel more alive again, and as strong as ever... The best thing was, he knew he made Ronon feel the same way... No. They could never give this up; he knew that!!!
