Chapter 5
Jesse was sleeping on Daniel's couch when he walked in the next morning. In his half asleep half awake mentally he didn't noticed her until he almost sat on her.
"Daniel." She surprised as he jumped off of her.
"Jesse, you have your own apartment. Seven doors away from mine and you still see the need to sleep over here for lack of a better term."
"Nice to know you missed me all that time Jonas was here." Jesse said with a smug grin taking the cup Daniel had just started to drink. After drinking a bit she said, "Sorry."
Daniel sighed and ran his hands though his hair. It had been the same way for the past year except for the times that Jonas was here. If they weren't working they were in her apartment. It was a safe haven with a private bedroom.
Daniel looked back at the young almost-20 year old woman. He was probably thinking too much about it. He was probably being over critical of Jonas and Jesse's relationship. He was over-thinking it. That's what he kept telling himself.

Jesse looked over at Daniel feeling very natural under his obvious stare. It was probably the fact that most of her energy was being used to not read into his mind by moving object around the room short distances. She touched the back of her neck where the Goa'uld entry scar was still there. Dr. Frasier offered to remove it but Jesse declined. Somehow she felt she would need it.
She looked back at Daniel and noticed the concern marring his handsome face. Ever since the incident with her walking she was seeing him in a new light. More than just her father's best friend that she had known her whole life but as a man that was also her friend.
"Bye Daniel." she said as she slipped out the door. She heard a faint reply back.

Jesse looked engrossed in a book from the perspective of her father who sat across the mess hall. In truth she was engrossed in her mind. Had he been closer to her he would have noticed the glazed look in her eyes.
Everything was hitting her so hard at the time. She knew what she needed. She needed Jonas to come back to Earth. It was a good thing for her it wouldn't be long. She hated feeling so needy.
Jack decided to come over to his daughter as he noticed that the book she was reading was upside down.
"Jesse." He said.
"Um." She responded looking up at him.
"Where are you?"
"What do you mean where am I? I'm right here."
"Physically yeah but what about up here." He said pointing to his head.
"Dad I'm fine." Jesse said catching what his concern was about.
"Jesse I can be concerned can't I. I mean after everything."
"I know dad but really I'm fine." She said faking a good smile even with everything going on in her mind. "Everything's fine."

It was cold and break. The moon was shining and you could see most of the stars. Jesse and Bryan were running with NID agents hot on their trail. The moon outlined their shadows more than they wanted it to.
"Come on." Bryan yelled. Jesse ran behind him and they hid behind boxes.
"We have to find a way out of here." He said in a slow motion. "Come on." He yelled again and he got up and ran. Half way to a door NID agents showed up and Bryan started firing. Jesse followed until she heard a gaunt from Bryan and a thump on the ground. Jesse turned to look at him and all she saw was blood.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~`
Jesse jumped into a sitting position screaming, 'No!' over and over again. She was shaking and moving her head around in frantic motions.
"Jesse." Daniel said wrapping his arms around her to stop her shaking and her head, which was threatening to snap off her shoulders if she continued to move it the way she was. "Shhh, Jesse calm down." He said rubbing the back of her head. Her dirty blonde hair was shaking in a 'no' motion and burying itself into his chest.
"No, No, No." she kept mumbling to his shirt. She kept crying and yelling but soon the sound got softer until Daniel couldn't hear it anymore. When he lifted her head up he saw that she was sleeping again. He pressed his left cheek into her head and soon he fell asleep with Jesse.
~~~~~~~~~~~`
Jesse woke up the next morning on top of Daniel who seemed content in a reclining position on the couch. She quietly slipped his hand from her head and out of his comforting embrace trying to figure out how she got there.
All of a sudden the image of a blood soaked Bryan brought it all back. She turned her head to the side and moved to the kitchen to make coffee.
"Morning." Daniel said. "Sorry about that." He said realizing he had fallen asleep.
"Its okay." Jesse said. "Thank you." She said now remembering the shaking and screaming.
"No problem." Jesse didn't say anything else and Daniel's apartment had an eerie quiet with just the coffee machine making coffee the source of any noise. He hadn't heard that since well since Jesse started sleeping there. Daniel stood up and stretched. A cracking noise told him that Jesse hugged him to tight and now his back was sore.
"Sorry." She said.
"No." he said. "Its okay."
