Love Bug

Disclaimers: you know the drill


"Unscheduled off-world activation," General Hammond inwardly groaned. Nothing here ever seemed to be calm for long. He got up and walked down to the control room.

"It's SG-1, Sir," said Harriman.

"Open the iris," he replied. You know, you really think they could figure that much out on their own, he thought as he walked down to the gateroom. A few seconds later Major Carter stepped through supporting a very unconcious Jack O'Neill, followed by Teal'c who was carrying Daniel Jackson over his shoulder.

"Medical team to the gateroom."

"What happened Major?" Hammond asked.

"I don't know sir, we were walking towards the civilization the UAV showed and then a bug flew out of nowhere, and bit both of them and then they fell down unconcious," she said as she lowered her CO to the ground.

"Right, well let's get all off you to the infirmary," he said as the medics arrived.


Janet Frasier knocked on the door frame of General Hammond's office. He nodded to her and she entered, "Sir, both Dr. Jackson and Colonel O'Neill are still unconcious. Their test results are all normal except that there seems to be a severe over activity in the emotion center of their brians, and their hormones are out of control,"

"Well, what does that mean Doctor?" he asked, not sure he wanted to know.

"I'm not sure, it doesn't seem to be life-threatening, which is always good news but I'm not positive about about what the physical effects of this will manifest as,"

"Right, Doctor, I'll let you get back to work. Dismissed."

"Thank you sir," she said as she turned and exited the office, her heels clicking down the hallway.


Samantha Carter was worried sick. She volunteered for the first shift so Teal'c could go kel'no'reem. She had been hoping they would wake up soon. Janet had said that the test results were normal aside from a little over activity in the brain. So why weren't they waking up. She wondered what was happening to them, sometimes they were smiling, like this was the best moment of their lives but then there were times when they were so obviously in pain, that it killed her to sit there and not be able to do anything. And she now had nothing to distract her. They had been unconcious for about 5 hours now and she had already finsihed the book she had brought. She didn't dare leave to get another one, what if they woke up in that time?

Janet walked into the room and sent a nod at Sam and then looked at Daniel. Sam knew that Janet hated to see anyone who was hurt or sick when there was nothing she could do to help, but when it was Daniel it hit her just that much harder. She walked over to Daniels and began to check his charts, Janet sent a glance at her friend and saw how worried she was. "Sam, I'm starting to think I should give you all frequent flyer cards your here so often," she said walking over to Jack's charts.

Even though she was completely worried her best friend knew how to make her smile, "No," she replied, "just put in a revolving door."

Janet smiled and opened her mouth to retort just as the Colonel stirred. "Samantha," he muttered and his eyes fluttered open. Sam practically flew over to his bed.

"Sir?" she said, he looked up at her but his eyes were still unfocused. As his eyes adjusted he seemed to recognize her and he grinned a goofy grin.

"Carter!" he practically shouted, seemingly over-joyed to see her.

"Yes sire, it's me," she smiled at his reaction to her, glad that he was awake.

"I have a secret Carter," he said tauntingly.

"Sir?" she asked, he had lost her completely. It seemed he didn't care that he had lost about half a day or that he was in the infirmary with no explanation, and now he was talking about secrets?

He motioned with his fingers for her to lean down and she did. He put his lips next to her ear and whispered, "I love you," Her eyes widened in complete shock and she froze, not sure of what to do now. She had had feelings for her CO for a while but this was way unexpected. With a smile he truned her head so their eyes met and then without warning he kissed her right on the lips.

She knew Janet as well as everyone else was shocked, but nothing compared to the surprise she was feeling. She was about to pull away and ask what the hell was going on when she felt something slide from his mouth to hers but it wasn't his tongue, it was something less solid. And suddenly she was falling asleep, she pulled away as she crashed to the floor and gasped, "Jack," before they both fell unconcious.


Janet once again knocked on the door to General Hammond's office. He was pacing the room as he waved her in he stopped and looked at the Doctor, "Sir, I have some good news and some bad news."

"Good," he said indicating which he would rather hear first.

"Both the Colonel and Major Carter are awake," he nodded, "However the bad news is that Major Carter now has whatever it is that has infected the Colonel. They can't seem to restrain themselves because of the increased hormone levels and so far all the effects hafve been, well Sir, public displays of affection."

"So I've heard," he said, he had heard about the officers lip lock. "So, what happened to them, Doctor?" he asked.

"Well, Major Carter said that the two were bitten by a bug. I believe this bug, a sort of love bug if you will, injected them with something. Im not sure if this is what it was intended to do, but it's messing with their hormones, they can't stop themselves."

"Why did Colonel O'Neill choose Major Carter?" he asked.

"We're not sure, sir, I think it may have been because she was the closest to him when he woke up," she said convincingly, this was a lie. When the Colonel had woken up she had been the closest, and he had said her name before he had opened his eyes. She had a pretty good idea that this wasn't at all random, but she wouldn't sell out her friends especially when it could end in a court marshall.

He nodded, "What do you advised Doctor?"

"Well, sir, I'm not sure there's much we can do except try to find a cure. We've already tried restraining them and they both severe withdrawl symptoms that may have been life threatening. I think the best we can do is to keep them from um... going too far, while we try to find an antidote."

Again he nodded, "And what of Doctor Jackson?"

She frowned, "He still hasn't woken up, sir. I'll let you know when that changes."

"Thank you, Doctor, dismissed," She walked away, but as she did she couldn't help but wonder who it was that Daniel would choose and tried to squash the part of her that prayed it was her.


When Janet entered the infirmary it was to find Jack and Sam in a rather akward position. Jack was lying in the hospital bed while Sam straddled his hips, their hands roaming each other shamelessly, locked in a kiss so passionate that half the room was blushing. She grabbed a handful of straws and cut them to different lengths. She walked over to the group of doctors and nurses and said, "Short straw has to draw their blood," she watched everyone glance at the couple and then back at the straws, warily taking one. They compared and the nurse who got the short one groaned loudly and then went to gather the necessary supplies.

The nurse took Sam's arm and attempted to tie it off, hoping to go unnoticed, but Sam broke the kiss to glare at the poor nurse. Jack took the opportunity to trail kisses down her neck, forgetting the nurse completely Sam threw back her head and moaned, "Jack," as the nurse blushed furiously, drawing the blood. As soon as the nurse pulled out the needle the two were lip-locked again.

The nurse grimaced at the thought of having to do this again and began to tie off Jack's arm. Janet smiled and tried very hard not to laugh as the nurse cowered from the glare the Colonel sent her. Just then something in the bed behind her moved, she turned just in time to hear Daniel mumble, "Janet."

Her heart fluttered, did that mean he had chosen her? Did that mean he loved her? She went over to him and put her hand in his giving it a squeeze to let him know she was there. His eyes fluttered open and he gazed around the room. As his eyes came into focus he looked at the hand in his and then gazed up to her face. The intensity in his gaze was overwhelming and she felt herself blushing. "Janet," he repeated, with his free hand he reached up and brushed her cheek with his finger tips. She shivered at his touch but turned her head into his hand.

He pulled her down gently and then his lips met hers in a sweet sort of way. Somewhere in the back of her mind she knew she shouldn't be doing this, that she should pull away before she becomes infected too. But right now all she really cared about was that he had chosen her and the feel of his lips on hers. She felt something pass between his lips into hers and just before they collapsed she gasped, "Daniel," and then fell to the floor.
