ausfox261: Thanks for the review. Yes I know, I have a fondness for cliffhangers. I love torturing readers! It's good to know my English classes paid off! I noticed the AU, are you an Aussie?

LJQ: Aww, I'm sorry, but I put a Kleenex warning for a reason. Just remember the title, maybe that'll help. Thanks for the review!

Sometimes Miracles Happen

By Ans4Christ

Jonas froze in place. "That's impossible."

"I'm afraid it is, Jonas. Amy was off world a few weeks ago. In fact the team that she was out with was the one that located this information about the Lost City. The members of that team were exposed to something. We're not sure what it was exactly. They all died from it within a week. Amy seemed fine. But a few days ago she started to show symptoms. Now there's no doubt that she was exposed somehow. Janet's not sure what it is. But she doesn't know what to do for it. It shuts down each bodily system, within a very short period of time." Sam paused. "I knew that you and Amy had a special relationship and I thought that you would want to be here.-I'm really sorry." Sam turned the elevator back on and within a few moments they reached the designated floor: guest quarters.

Sam showed Jonas his room, but he was too numb to even notice.

"Jonas, I'm really sorry. I know I just blurted it out. I just didn't know how to tell you." Sam looked down at her shoes for a second." I feel terrible having to tell you."

"I'm glad you told me Sam. I just-I just can't believe it. I think I just need some time to let it sink in I guess." He sat on the bed, his face almost white with shock, he appeared unable to move.

Sam looked at him and felt tears in her eyes. This was hard for her as well because she and Amy had become close friends over the past few months. But she somehow knew that Jonas was going to react this way. She knew that he and Amy had a relationship far beyond that of friendship. Part of her was angry with both Teal'c and Colonel O'Neill. The Colonel had felt that it wasn't his place, and Teal'c had said he felt she would be better at expressing it. Somehow all of them had known how it was going to affect him, but why did she have to get stuck telling him?

"Try and get settled. I'll be around if you need me." She quietly shut the door and left.

Jonas sat on the bed in utter disbelief. This could not be real. This had to be some bad dream or horrid mistake. Could it really be the same day? Wasn't he just a few hours ago excited about coming here? Now he wished he could disappear. He didn't want to accept it. He wouldn't. There had to be some way to help Amy. There had too. He wasn't about to give up on her. He tried to compose himself. Because his next course of action would probably prove the hardest. He had to go and see her.

Jonas took the elevator and walked down the corridor that led to the infirmary. It felt as though the room was swimming to him. Part of him just wished he could run away.

"Jonas."

He turned around. He gave a half smile, "Hi Dr. Frasier."

"Hi." Janet paused. "I'd like to talk casually but I have a feeling by your being here you already know." Jonas nodded. "I am sorry. I know you two were very close."

"Sam said she was exposed to something along with the rest of an SG team. What was it?"

"Honestly Jonas, I have no idea. It affected the SG team right away and when Amy showed no symptoms for almost a week I thought that she was in the clear. She's actually been fine the past couple of weeks. Then a few days ago she started getting sick, and then she collapsed. I can't explain why it started affecting her now and not before. Or why anyone was even exposed to this thing. It acts like a virus of some kind that shuts down each bodily system. It's beyond anything I have seen. And working here the past seven years I'd thought I'd seen it all."

"Do you think I could see her?" He asked shakily.

"I think that would be the best thing I could prescribe." She saw his eyes. "Come here. " She gave him a hug." I wish you could have come back for a visit under better circumstances. "

"Me too."

"Come on, I'll take you to her room."
