Friendly concern.
Samantha Carter was getting changed into her fatigues in the locker room. It was empty and for that she was glad. She didn't want anyone to see the state she was in.
If she was truthful she had been feeling off colour for weeks now. She'd been over tired, very nauseous and dizzy. She had wanted to talk to her friend, but everytime she got the courage to go and see her in the infirmary she was either really busy or involved in a case which needed sorting out. In any case by the time she had finished Sam had lost her nerve.
She walked over to the mirror and looked at her face. Her eyes were sunken and her face was pale. "Man I look terrible." she said to herself splashing cold water over her face, then feeling her stomach heave she was sick.
Janet Fraiser entered the locker room ten minutes later and was confronted by the sight of her friend weakly sitting on the bench, her head in her hands. She sat down beside her. "So Jack came to see me, told me you looked like hell and that he was worried about you. Looks like he had good reason to be worried." she stated looking at her friends face. "So are you gonna tell me what's up or not?"
"What do you mean?" Carter asked getting up off the bench to get a mouthful of water.
"Sam you haven't been yourself for weeks. You've looked like hell, and you've sounded awful."
"I'm fine Janet. I don't need sympathy or worry."
"Then why do you keep hovering around the infirmary? Why do you keep pushing me away? I want to help you Sam, so does Jack. Daniel's worried, even Teal'c has sensed somethings up. I'm your friend." the doctor told her getting up then going to stand by the Major. "Talk to me."
Suddenly Carter's stomach heaved and she was sick again.
"That wasn't quite what I meant." Janet Fraiser muttered rubbing her friends back. "You want me to tell the General you're too sick to go off world."
"It's a mineral survey Janet, I think I'll manage." Samantha Carter said lifting her head up.
"But you'll come see me when you get back?"
"Of course." the Major said quietly.
"If you don't you know I'll get Teal'c to drag you right?" the doctor told her friend smiling, prompting the Major to smile back.
"Look I'll tell the General you're not feeling well but that you'll be along in a couple of minutes and I'll tell the guys they should keep an eye out for you. I'll also tell the General you're to report to me as soon as you get back okay?"
"Thanks."
"No problem, but I'd better see you in a few hours." her friend answered leaving.
"Yeah well I've gotta do something." Samantha Carter said quietly under her breath putting a hand gently on her stomach.
