A/N- Dan and Jan. told in Janets POV
Hallelujah
Love, who needs it. It's greeted with a warm light but it only leaves with a bitter sting. I've learned its best not to love. It's best to shield yourself from love, create the stone wall and show no mercy.
I never really knew love…I know that's true. I was never respected the way I should have been. I was always beaten down, spit on, and always dimmed down. My height has got nothing to do with it and I can still kick anyone's butt if I see fit, but I have not been told to do that.
So now I here sitting on my couch watching some sappy Lifetime movie with a pint of chocolate ice cream in my hand. I never expected a visitor when I door bell rang. I sat down my ice cream which was melting anyway and answered the door.
I was not expecting to be greeted by a shaking Daniel Jackson, the man of my wildest fantasies that will never come true. "Daniel, what are you doing here?" I finally manage to push out once I got my voice to work again.
He looked so lost standing there in my door way, so I step aside and let him in to warm up from the harsh and bitter cold.
He rubbed his arms as he tried to get warm. I smiled kindly at him and lead him to my living room. He sat down on my couch and I placed a blanket around him. "Do you want anything to drink?" I asked him lightly. He didn't respond to me, he just opened the blanket, like an invitation to sit under the blanket with him.
I don't know what possessed me to sit and 'cuddle' with him so to speak. We sat for a while in a surprisingly comfortable silence until Daniel finally spoke up.
"You are probably wondering what I'm doing here…" Daniel started slowly. I leaned my head on his shoulder and looked up at him; he glanced down at me nervously as I felt his arm move from around my shoulders to around my waist.
I stiffened at the movement slightly and then relaxed as his warm and smooth voice filled my head, "well I came here….to uh…..tell you…that uh…."Daniel's voice grew into a whisper as he continued on, "I love you so much janet." Daniel managed to say.
My reaction wasn't a really good one. My mind was filled with the fear of past pain. Of how I let people in and gave them my heart and all they ever did was tear it in two. I pulled back from Daniel slightly to look at him as tears fall from my eyes. "I don't want to be hurt again…" I whisper before I can stop myself.
Daniel put his arms around me and pulled me close as my soul's very barrier broke with a choked sob. I cried for what seemed like hours and Daniel just sat there and held me. I finally manage to look back into his eyes.
He looked back into mine, "You're scared, aren't you?" Daniel asked softly as my eyes grew wide, could he really read me like a book like that? All I can really do now is nod as he kisses my forehead, "you don't need to be scared, I'm not like those other guys…I swear on my parents graves, I will never hurt you." Daniel spoke with love and softness in his voice.
My wall around my heart broke down with a loud crash as I threw all to the wind and placed a kiss on Daniels lips.
At first he didn't respond, but then, oh…my…god…that kiss was by far the best kiss that I had ever had.
I realize now that love maybe painful, but true love is a whole other story.
TBC!
