A Proposal or two.
An hour later all was quiet in the infirmary. Sam having checked on Janet and now being sure she was all right had taken off to do something with Jack. Janet, Daniel and Kate meanwhile were all resting in the quiet infirmary.
"Feeling any better?" Daniel asked as Janet lay beside him on his bed, her head resting on his chest as they looked at Kate who had fallen asleep on the bed next to his.
"Yeah a little." She told him. "You're definitely getting your color back."
"While you're losing yours." He replied kissing her on the forehead.
"Yeah tell me about it. Well I've only got another six or so months of this." she sighed.
Daniel stroked her hair back off her forehead.
"What?" she asked smiling, noticing the way he was looking at her.
"It's just amazing you know."
"What is?" she asked propping her head up on her elbows.
"This. You. Our baby."
She smiled.
"I'm sorry I didn't tell you before. I found out just after you'd been brought in and didn't want to give you anything else to worry about."
"Hey, I know." He told her tenderly. "Three months huh?"
"Yeah… Daniel what happened when you stopped breathing… something did right?"
"Yeah something did. I don't know whether it was a hallucination due to lack of oxygen or what, but I saw Kate."
"This Kate?" Janet asked looking at the young woman fast asleep next to them.
"No, Summer's Kate. She told me a few things, made me realize a few things."
"Like what?" Janet asked looking into his eyes.
"She told me about our child." He told her wrapping an arm around her waist, his hand resting on her stomach. "She told me that no matter how much pain I was in, the pain you were feeling here…" he said pointing to her heart "Was much stronger. She told me something I've known from the very first day that I spoke to you properly for the first time…"
"What's that?" she asked quietly.
"That you're my anchor. That however bad things get I just need to look to you and the love I feel for you because that's much more important than anything else."
"I guess someone is looking over us huh?"
"I guess so." He replied pulling her closely.
"You do realize you're gonna have to repaint the nursery right?"
"I know." He told her.
"And that I'm going to be very emotional for a while."
"I know that."
"And that I expect you to come to ultrasounds and ante-natal classes with me…because Daniel I can't go through this alone. No matter how much I love this baby and how much I want it, I've never done this before and I'm scared to death." She told him starting to cry.
"Hey, I am never going to let you go through any of this alone. Not ever, you hear me. I love you, and our baby, and Summer and Cass. I'll always come back Janet. As long as you're happy that's all that matters."
"I am happy." She told him trying to smile through her tears. "Damn these hormones." She cursed as he took her in his arms and rocked her, as his stitches would allow.
"Sshhh. I'm here." He told her comfortingly.
Suddenly Jack's voice boomed across the base startling Janet who immediately lifted her head, and waking Kate up.
"Hello this is Colonel Jack O'Neill and it would appear I am taking requests. As you all know SG-1s very own Space monkey is currently recovering from a kidney transplant and appears to be doing very well."
Cheers went up over the base.
"And as you probably know our dear Dr. Jackson has a very special lady in his life at the moment. Now earlier on he asked me to do him a favor, seeing as he is currently recovering from this operation and you can all thank the adorable Major Samantha Carter for helping me get this together for him. Dr Janet Fraiser this is from space monkey to you with all of his heart. He loves ya Doc and congratulations." He shouted as he could then be heard fiddling with something.
"Hey Sam…help me with this thing could ya?"
"Jack you have to plug it in." she could be heard teasing him, them having forgotten to turn off the mike.
Suddenly music could be heard through out the base.
Though I've tried before to tell her
Of the feelings I have for her in my heart
Every time that I come near her
I just lose my nerve
As I've done from the start
"What are two up too?" Janet asked him, as the melody filled the base.
"Just wanted to show you how much I love you." He replied sweetly
"You showed me that by fighting Daniel, you showed me that by coming back."
Every little thing she does is magic
Everything she does just turns me on
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for her goes on
"Your life wasn't that tragic before you met me." Janet commented playing with his hair.
"No it wasn't, but I don't think I've ever been this happy."
"You were happy with Shau'ri." Janet commented.
"Yeah I was, and that was an incredible time in my life. You're where my future is, and you're one of the most beautiful things that has ever happened to me."
Do I have to tell the story
Of a thousand rainy days since we first met
It's a big enough umbrella
But it's always me that ends up getting wet
"Pessimist."
Every little thing she does is magic
Everything she does just turns me on
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for her goes on
"You know I'm glad I turn you on so much."
"Marry me?" he asked her.
I resolved to call her up a thousand times a day
And ask her if she'll marry me in some old fashioned way
But my silent fears have gripped me
Long before I reach the phone
Long before my tongue has tripped me
Must I always be alone
"So will you?" he asked, his blue eyes shining with anticipation.
"Of course I'll marry you." She told him as they kissed.
"Will you marry me?" they heard again.
"I already said I would." Janet told him.
"That time it wasn't me." Daniel commented.
"Sam… will you marry me. Look I'm down on one knee." They heard over the lyrics of the song, the microphone still being on.
"Oh Jack. Of course I'll marry you." They then heard as cheers went up once again all over the base making Janet and Daniel laugh as she once again rested her head on his chest and as Jack and Sam embraced, a brown eyed angel looking down and smiling for them all.
Every little thing she does is magic
Everything she does just turns me on
Even though my life before was tragic
Know I know my love for her goes on
Every little thing
Every little thing
Every little thing she does is magic, magic, magic
Magic, magic. Magic.
