Feb. 26th, 2009 09:57 pmprompt: Kate & John, effusiveness
Unlocked
Effusiveness wasn't a word Kate associated with Major Sheppard. Evasive was more like it. She knew he appreciated what she did for the military personnel he sent her way, but he kept conversations with her brisk and businesslike.

Until she made a passing comment that normally on New Year's Day she'd be watching the Rose Bowl on TV, and suddenly there was no stopping him. Kate smiled and let him babble on, because it was a start....
