One Day

By: the female apophis

Disclaimer: Nope, sorry folks, but I don't own them. It would be very obvious if I did though wouldn't it?

Spoilers: Heroes part 2.

Characters: Jack's POV talking about the rest of the team and Cassie.

Summary: The one person she wants to comfort her, she can't have.

Song: Nope. Not this time.

Other Stuff: Nope. Not in this story.

Warning: It's the aftermath of Heroes. So yes, there's angst there.

A/N: It's another little story that I threw together in about ten to fifteen minutes.

I hate everybody.

It's not something I'm proud of, but it's true.

There are those four or five individuals who I love and hold as close to me as possible, but as for the rest…

I lost one of those people today. Someone who I've loved like a sister for years, who I've known for years.

I can't help but watch my team, those three left, and Cassie, as they lower her into the ground.

Teal'c, his quiet demeanor may seem to be in place, but his eyes are unusually bright on this cold, rainy day.

Daniel, the man who fell in love with her; his red rimmed eyes tell everyone what he's been doing. His allergies have begun to act up as well.

Cassie, I can't being to understand what she's going through. It's a different feeling losing a parent from a child. She's put on her strong face, but we all know she's struggling to keep her tears from falling.

And then there's her…Sam. She's lost her best friend.

But what makes it worse is that the one person she wants to comfort her, she can't have.

That much became evident when she looked at me a few minutes ago.

Oh, how I wish I could take her in my arms and hold her, ease her pain.

But I can't.

I'm not allowed to feel the way I do all because of a few rules that shouldn't even apply to our line of work in the first place.

They say we can't get close. And yet we've become a family.

They tell us we can't love.

That's the one I hate. Words shouldn't dictate who we can and cannot love. Because of them, I can't comfort the one I love in her time of need.

One day though, it won't be an issue and I'm show her exactly how I feel.

One day.

It's nothing major I know. But I'm working on something much bigger.

Hope you guys liked it though.

Reviewing would be a good way to let my muse and I know.
