A/N: Finally, a piece that I intended to be short that stayed that way!


Big Boss Man

by cestmoi01

So, I'm the older one is this relationship. Ya know – more wisdom, more grey hairs? Smarter, with more experience and more self-control? More respected? Plus, I'm a colonel in the US Air Force. So you'd think I'd be the one in charge here.

Yeah. You'd think.

"Daniel. Oh, Dannyboy! Time to rise and shine, we gotta be at the Mountain by 0800 hours."

Said Dannyboy merely rolls over and mumbles, "Five more minutes, J'ck…"

"Daniel," I say, amused.

"Jaack," he replies, pleading a little.

(So far, so good, right? I mean – I'm obviously the one in charge here. Right?)

"Daniel," my voice is a little stern this time.

"Jack. Five more minutes."

(Okay, not so good – I may be the authority figure here, but he doesn't appear to be listening.)

So I whip the blankets off him, leaving one startled – cute – archeologist with a bad case of bed-head lying shivering in our bed, as I order in my most commanding voice – the one that snaps recalcitrant cadets into line ten seconds ago – "Dr. Daniel Jackson, get your ass out of that bed ASAP!"

He blinks at me a couple of times, and then I know I'm doomed. Daniel's brain has finally engaged, and he wants to play. He peers up at me through his lashes innocently – as if neither of us knows what he's really doing – and says in a voice husky with both sleep and desire, "My ass, Colonel Jack O'Neill, is cold. I think you should warm it up before I get out of bed."

God help me, but he gets way more than the five minutes he originally asked for, and we're only a little late to our morning briefing with General Hammond.
