Best Friend
Song by Dandy Warhol titled 'Best Friend'.
Enjoy!
"Major Carter. Major Carter should have stayed with the group, but she wanted to play the hero and she got herself killed."
Jonas tried not to collapse as he stared Simmons in the eye. Squaring his shoulders, he prepared himself for the wave of grief that would come once the man had left the room.
Smiling slightly, Simmons leaves, breathing heavily, Jonas turns to find Julia staring at him, almost afraid.
"N-No..." He whispers, doubling over, as if in pain. He slides to the floor, disgusted he was unable to save his friend. Head resting on his knees, he watches as Julia tentatively sits beside him, a hand over her mouth.
"She's dead..." She whispered, her voice shaking. "It's my fault she's dead."
Heart ripping apart, he looks over at her, his arm snaking around her shoulders. "It's not your fault." He said quietly, tears running freely down his cheeks. If only he had been able to stop her leaving the group, if only he had gone to save her. His best friend was dead.
Sam Carter, was dead.
Best friend, I see you in the end
Broken for a while but maybe we could mend
Best friend, I'm feeling a lot of love
And filling up my time again.
I'll see you in the end.
I will again
She believed in him, was there when nobody else wanted to be. Yet he couldn't be there for her, in her final hour, her final mission.
"It's not your fault either, you know." Julia said, her voice empty.
Another empty consolation. Sam would have cracked a joke, she would have made him feel better. But she was gone. And he had no way to bring her back.
If things had been different, in another life, Jonas might have tried to have a chance with her. She was beyond anything he had ever experienced before, her soul seemed to leap out, and no matter how blue someone is, a smile was always on their face when they met Sam. But her heart was never his. And he never expected it to be. Sam was his best friend. Like a sister. A sister he never had.
Best friend, I'm really up again
The world is alone but bitter to the end
Best friend, I'm really high again
And figuring out my Head.
Yeah, I'll see you in the end.
I will again,
again,
again,
again.
"It's not your fault." Came a voice Jonas felt eerily familiar. He heard Julia gasp, and her hand tighten on his arm, as he blearily looked up, his eyes dripping with unshed tears.
Daniel Jackson was standing above him. He was smiling mischievously, eyes dancing.
"Daniel?" Jonas choked out, ignoring Julia who asked suspiciously if he was an alien.
Daniel stared at him, dressed in a white jumper, his hair different then what it was before.
"It's alright." Daniel said, smiling. "I can't say anything more here, but don't worry."
And he vanished in a flash of light.
Everything was going to be alright?
Wiping away his tears, Jonas watched as Julia began to pace, until a sound reached his ears and her pacing stopped.
"What is that?" Julia asked, frowning slightly.
Jonas scowled. "The hyperdrive."
"That's bad, isn't it?"
Oh yes, everything was going to be fine.
End!!
