Jack suddenly sat bolt upright, a tear rolling down his cheek. He had to get to Sam. He hurriedly put his shoes on and ran downstairs, grabbed his leather jacket and rushed out of the house letting the door slam behind him.

Janet had left the room to go and tidy herself up, leaving Teal'c alone with Sam.
"You indeed will be missed Major Carter." Teal'c paused thoughtfully as his eyes glistened. "I owe you my life. Were it not for you my energy signal would have been erased from the memory of the Stargate. Your knowledge and courage have saved the Tau'ri many times and helped many other planets." A single tear rolled down Teal'c's cheek. "Side by side we have battled against the Goa'uld, it has been an honour, thank you." Teal'c gave an honourable bow and left.
Jack saw Teal'c walking down the corridor. He himself reached the infirmary and stopped dead in his tracks. She looked so pale, so peaceful. Seeing her like that reminded him of the time when she had been taken over by that computer thing. He was so scared that he'd lost her then but it was nothing in comparison with now. Jack walked over to the bed and took Sam's hand. He had been trying to plan what to say all the time that he was driving over but he still didn't know. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, breathing out slowly.
"You know I'm never very good at this..." he looked down at her hand as he remembered the time that he had had to say goodbye to Daniel. "I never know what to say... I just feel so helpless." He squeezed her hand tightly as he said this. "Give me some greasy assed, snake in the head, Goa'uld to fight, but not this." He relaxed his grip on her hand slightly. "You know how I feel. I don't wanna loose you. I can't go through this again! I just can't do it!" Jack sighed. "I know you think that I was cold and heartless when Daniel... but that's because...it's because not thinking about it was the only way I could carry on. I miss him too." Jack closed his eyes as the tears were making them sting. He took another deep breath before he opened them again. "I guess I just wanted you to know that... and one more thing." He drew closer to her and in a gentler voice said, "You remember that day that repeated itself for me and Teal'c, I told you about the golf, the pottery, the juggling..." He smiled as he remembered the look on her face as he told her about the juggling. "Well there's one thing I didn't tell you. Before the time loop started again I handed in my notice... and... I kissed you." Bending over Sam, he kissed her gently on the lips as tears rolled down his cheeks. Pulling back slightly he whispered, "I love you." Jack looked round the room and found a stool which he pulled next to the bed. He sat down and took Sam's hand, stroking her hair with his other hand.

"Unauthorised off-world activation!" called Sergeant Davis as General Hammond hurried down the spiral staircase to the Gate Room.
"Close the iris!" ordered Hammond as troops rushed into the Gate Room, weapons poised. Suddenly the whole room was filled with light as a white being passed right through the iris. Hammond recognised it as one of the ascended beings. "Stand down, I repeat, stand down. Do not engage the creature." The being floated past them and down the corridor as they stood looking on in awe. Hammond started after it with Teal'c close behind him. As it passed Janet's office she also rose to follow it to Sam's room.
