Chapter 2
Rating: K+
A/N: Thank you for the awesome reviews. Shay, guest, said I should write longer so here is a longer chapter and I hope it's fine for you.
Sam's Lab
Jack arrived at Sam's lab only to not find her there. For the first time in history. "Now where would Sam be in a time like this?" He thought. "Cafeteria. No, definitely not. I can't get her to eat so who could? Janet maybe. Speaking of the doc, maybe in the infirmary. But I don't think Janet is too fond of me at the moment. She kept asking if something happened with Sam and I. With something did. Of for crying out loud, Janet is probably interrogating Sam for the information. Well not interrogating because they are friends. But maybe she is secretly at the same time. Or maybe her dad came. That would be terrible timing." He decided to head to Daniel's lab to see if he wants anything.
Daniel's Lab
Finally once he made it to Daniel's lab, he saw Daniel examining some device. "Hey Danny. What's up?" Jack asked while walking in.
Daniel looked up. "Hi Jack. Umm... the sky, the ceiling, the clouds, the planets, the stars are up. But thinking that you meant how I feel, I'm good you?" The archeologist questioned.
"I'm good. Thanks for asking." Jack responded.
"There are only ever in here for two reasons. One is that Sam is not in her lab and you can't talk to her. The second would be that you want something from me. Which reason is it?" Daniel said.
"It's the first Daniel."
"I figured as much."
"Why would you figure that Daniel?" Jack walked around the room and looked at the books Daniel owned.
"No reason."
"Okay... What's the doohickey you got there?"
"Some device from P4X-936."
"Is there any alien language on it?"
"Yes."
"What does it say?"
"Why does it matter?" Daniel looked at Jack.
"I'm just asking Daniel. No need for an attitude." Jack moved himself to look at the device. Then he touched it before the civilian could stop him.
"NO! Jack! Why would you touch it without asking what it does?"
"I don't know. What does it do?"
"It makes you kiss the next person you touch on purpose or even on accident. I finished translating seconds ago and was about to tell Dr. Fraiser."
"Oh... That's not good."
"Of course it isn't good. Now we need to get you to the infirmary." Daniel walked over to Jack but didn't touch him. "Can you go there without my escort? Well actually, I'm coming anyways so can you follow me but not touch me?"
"No... I can't Danny. I need you to drag me over." The colonel said sarcastically.
"Well I'm not going to do that Jack."
"I know Daniel I was just being... You know what? I'm not going to answer that. Lead the way." Jack pointed to the door. Daniel walked to the door and Jack followed. O'Neill thought. "I couldn't find a book that Daniel doesn't even have in there. Well not one that he needs at least. How can a device make you kiss someone you touch? Is that even possible? I wouldn't have run into this trouble if Sam was in her lab."
Infirmary
Jack had to dodge many people on the journey to the infirmary but they finally made it there. "Doctor we have a problem." Daniel said. Janet walked over to the duo.
Dr. Fraiser asked. "What did the colonel do this time?"
"Well technically it was Danny's fault and not mine. But he would like to explain the problem to you." Jack said and pointed to Daniel.
"Well there was a device from P4X-936 that SG-3 found that makes you kiss the first person you touch. Which is weird how Earth keeps finding devices like that. I guess ancients like romance." The member of SG-1 explained.
"So your saying that we have a kissing breach?" The doctor questioned with a very confused face.
Daniel said. "Apparently."
"Let me call the general. This is going to be a weird situation to explain." The female told.
"Ya think?" Jack stated. Janet ignored him and went to the phone and explained the situation to the General.
Once Janet hanged up, a message came on to the PA system. "SG-3 please go to the infirmary immediately." Walter said.
A few minutes later, the team arrived in the infirmary. "What's going on?" Colonel Reynolds said.
"Who touched the stone with ancient writing on it?" Daniel asked.
"We all did sir." Peterson told.
"Have any of you touch another person after touching the stone?" Janet demanded. There was no response from the team. "I'm the doctor. Answer my question."
"I touched Peterson and then I randomly kissed him doctor." Reynolds explained.
Jack questioned. "Daniel, is this only one touch, one kiss or one touch, one kiss and then repeat?"
"I think it is only one touch, one kiss." The archeologist stated.
"You think?" Jack said.
Dr. Jackson responded. "Look okay. Unless you want everyone kissing everyone in the base, I suggest they either get rid of their and your kiss or don't touch anyone until they want to kiss a certain person. But not breaking the regulations of course."
"Okay. Here's my decision." The MD told. General Hammond walked into the room.
"The decision for what?" The general requested.
Janet said. "Of what is going to happen with the kissing thing."
"I should decide this. After I call the president and see what he says. But for now, stay in the infirmary." General Hammond explained.
"Yes sir." All of SG-3, and Jack said. The general left the infirmary and went to his office.
Jack smirked at a thought for a second and then took the smirk off. "Daniel, didn't you touch the device also since you were the one who has it in their lab." He said calmly.
Daniel thought for a moment and then replied. "Yes. So all of SG-3 but Reynolds and Peterson I guess, Jack and I are infected with it."
"Shouldn't you not touched the device until you were 100% sure that it wouldn't have some disease on it?" Jack asked.
"That will be use for future references." Daniel said.
The doctor told. "I don't think you need beds for this and there isn't a couch in here, you can stand or sit on the floor. I would have sent you to your own quarters but the general said otherwise." The infected people, Peterson and Reynolds booed at this. Janet sighed and left them.
Cafeteria
Sam actually went to the cafeteria to get some food because she decided to listen to Jack about eating. She grabbed a blue jello and a sandwich. She didn't sit at a table but went back to her lab. Carter doesn't know about the disease yet. Sam only knows something happened with SG-3. But not what and isn't worried about it. But maybe she should be.
Once the general got off the phone with the president, he headed back down to the infirmary. He looked mad in his own way. But only because he didn't like the response he got from the president. He arrived to the infirmary and said. "I don't know if you will like or dislike the response the president gave me." The officers and Daniel stared at him. "I will tell you the answer as long as Dr. Jackson answers this one question." The general said seriously.
"Okay, shoot." Daniel said.
Hammond questioned. "Will this infect more people if the person with this disease or whatever it is called kisses another person?"
Daniel thought for a moment. But then he replied. "No general it won't. It said a one time kiss."
"Okay. Well the president told me to tell you that you can actually kiss someone. It can be whoever in this base. Unless you have someone at home but no exceptions to that. You must ask permission before kissing the person on base. This will be a one time thing. This will happen while Dr. Jackson puts the device anyway from harms reach. Is everyone clear with that?" The general said with frustration.
Everyone replied including Janet. "Yes sir."
"Okay. You have the next 12 hours to do so or you will be force to kiss someone I choose. Understand?"
"Yes sir." Everyone said loudly.
"You are dismiss from the infirmary." The general said and left the room. Everyone was very confused by the response but they didn't argue. Everyone was asking who is going to kiss who. Jack and Daniel left the infirmary before they got asked. Reynolds and Peterson left since their touch already wore off.
Jack and Daniel were both heading back to Daniel's lab. "So... This is a bit awkward to think of." Daniel told.
The colonel said. "Ya think?" Daniel didn't reply. They both walked in silence until they got to his lab and closed the door.
Daniel's Lab
"Who are you going to kiss?" Daniel asked.
O'Neill responded. "Who are you?"
"I asked first."
"So?"
"So that means you have to answer first."
"What rule is that in?"
"Every rule book that is relevant to this topic."
"No."
"Yes."
"No."
"Yes."
"No."
"Can we stop arguing?"
"I'm not arguing."
"Yes you are."
"No. I'm not."
"Yes you are." Daniel was getting tired of this.
"Goodbye Daniel." Jack left to Sam's lab while Daniel put away the device.
Sam's Lab
Sam was eating lunch in her lab and Jack entered. "Hi sir. You are bored right?" She questioned.
He yelled. "Why does everyone think that I come here when I'm bored?"
"Well sir, you kind of do." Sam pointed out.
"Touche." Jack told.
"So..."
"So you are actually eating something?"
"Yes actually I am sir. I decided to eat something because you keep nagging me about it."
"Can I ask you a question?"
"You just did."
"No not that. You know what I mean Carter."
"Okay sir. Shoot." Jack was about to say something but the PA system cut him off.
"We have a disease outbreak that spreads by touch. Only certain people have it. This disease is that if you touch the person who has it, they will kiss you no matter what happens. It doesn't matter if it's an accidental touch or a purpose touch. You will kiss the person. Do not touch anyone unless they ask you and you agree. It is not infective so you can't get it unless you touch the device it came from. Thank you." Walter explained on the PA system. Sam looked at Jack.
"You have it. Don't you? The disease?" Sam asked.
Jack said calmly. "Ya Sam. Ya I do."
"So you came to ask if you can touch or tap me which will make you kiss me?"
"Yes I did. So will you?"
This device will be used farther in the story and this is why I added it here. Sorry for very little fluff in here. The next chapter will have it for sure as you know from the cliffhanger. But please keep reading and enjoy.
