Striding down the corridors of the SGC Dr Daniel Jackson's mind was in turmoil. He was sure that something was wrong with Sam, but he didn't know what it could be. He had tried to figure it out but since she wouldn't talk it kind of limited his options.

So here he is looking all over the base for Jack, because something in his attitude at the debriefing earlier told him that he might know something. Unable to find Jack, Daniel went to the last place he had to look, Jacks office. And as he rounded the corner he smiled as he heard Jacks voice inside, but he frowned as he also heard Sam's voice as well.

Feeling guilty Daniel tries to listen in hoping that he's jumping to conclusions.

"How did your meeting with the General go?" He heard Jack ask. Sam then replying, "Fine, he suspects something's up though, he knows me to well."

"Dang it," Jack exclaimed before he continued, "well George is a smart one that true, what'd you end up tellin him?"

"Just that I had some personal issues to resolve but as soon as I knew something concrete I would let him know."

Sighing Jack continued, "Well that buys us some time, you going to talk to Janet?"

With a harried sigh Sam then said, "yeah that's the plan, in fact I should make sure she can talk at her place tonight. I think this is the kind of thing to have people avoid prying into, you know."

Hearing Jack and Sam heading for the door Daniel quickly retreats around the corner while wondering what is going on and thinking 'I need to find Teal'C and see what he thinks'.

Chapter Six

The Guys

*************************

Teal'C former first prime of Apophis had just began his Kel'no'reem, the meditation all Jaffa need instead of rest, when Daniel burst into his room.

"Something concerns you DanielJackson?" he inquired rising from his sitting position.

Breathing kind of heavily Daniel nodded, before he blushed "Sorry, I should have knocked but I needed to talk with you."

Teal'C nodded his head in understanding, "very well DanielJackson what is it that you wish to discuss?"

Daniel sat down on a chair with a sigh, "you noticed how Sam's been acting?"

At his answering nod Daniel continued, "well, um . . . I was worried so I thought I'd ask Jack, you saw how he was distracted at the meeting? Well I thought he might know more than he was saying. Well I finally tracked him down at his office of all places and, well I happened to overhear him and Sam talking," At this though Teal'C interrupted abruptly, "do you mean to say spied on our friends?"

Uncertain, Daniel hims and haws for a moment before continuing, "I didn't mean to, it just kind of happened, but anyway they are hiding something. And I think its something big. For one thing they didn't tell the General when he asked Sam about it and also she plans on talking with Janet about it tonight, what could it mean Teal'C," he asked standing up and pacing a bit.

"DanielJackson," Teal'C stated trying to get his attention.

"I mean what could it be that they wouldn't tell either of us?" the archeologist continued without a missing a beat.

"DanielJackson," the Jaffa spoke a bit more forcefully.

Still pacing back and forth in a semi-manic way Daniel continued, "you don't think that Sam's sick or something do you?"

"DANIELJACKSON," the former first prime roars in order to finally get his friends attention.

"Hum?" Daniel responds in his typical absentminded and confused way. "What Teal'C?"

Sighing in an acharacteristic display exasperation the big man looked onto his much younger friend. "DanielJackson do you not trust our friends?"

Still not following his line of thought Daniel frowns, "of course I do Teal'C," he says pushing his glasses up. "But you know how stubborn Jack can be, and Sam can be real pigheaded too sometimes so I was just worried that . . ."

Anymore of that talk is cut off as Teal'C interrupts, "that may be so DanielJackson but I for one believe that our friends will discuss any problems with us when it is pertinent to do so."

"But Teal'C," Daniel tries to begin only to be shut down by the large Jaffa, "there is no buts DanielJackson if you trust O'Neill and MajorCarter then you will not engage in activates that clearly indicate that you do not believe in them. I trust in them both and believe that they will tell us in there own time."

Stopping Daniel flopped down into the chair he had recently vacated looking forlorn at Teal'C. "Do you really think so?"

"Indeed I do DanielJackson."

"So we just wait?"

Nodding his head the former first prime sits as down as well. "DanielJackson do not fear, I believe that all will be well, and our friends will inform us in due time."

Daniel looked suspiciously at Teal'C, "you know what's going on don't you."

The big man tilted his head in his typical stoic manner before he replied, "I do not."

His frown deepened "alright, but you have a suspicion then."

"I admit I do believe I may understand what is troubling MajorCarter, and when she is ready, She will tell us. So until she is ready we," he paused looking directly at Daniel, "we, will respect her privacy in this manner, is that understood?"

Blanching slightly Daniel leaned back before he muttered, "all right, I see what you mean. Well let them handle it in their own way."

Daniel glanced sideways at him and he asked, "you wont tell me what you think it is will you?"

Teal'C shook his head slightly and stated, "Indeed I will not DanielJackson, now if you will excuse me I do need to finish my Kel'no'reem.

Daniel Blushed at how he disturbed the Jaffa's meditation, "Sorry Teal'C I'll get out of your way."

With a nod of understanding Teal'C returns to the proper position for Kel'no'reem and listens as Daniel leaves him in peace the candles flickering around him. Once he is gone Teal'C murmurs good naturedly, "ah, the young."

End Notes:

There you go guys, sorry it took so long but I had trouble with this one. But I felt I had to deal with the other 2 members of the Sg-1 family. Did you guys like it?

One of the reasons it took so long was that I had to do some thinking about the immediate points I wanted to include in the future of this fic.

One question though how long does it take to get the results of a pregnancy test at the doctors? I just need to know in order for the next chapter so any knowledge you can give me I would appreciate it.

Thank you for everything.

Later.
