Summary: If the Un-Inevitable were to happen this is what I would want to happen instead. And I hate Pete, complete loser! And Janet's in this because I saw no point in her death. And Hammond's still the General for convenience! This is my first Stargate fic! Enjoy.
Part One
"God Damn It...Shit!"
That's what Daniel heard walking down the corridor towards Jacks quarters. He had been worried about him lately, his temper was all over the place and he'd been snapping at everyone including him, Sam and T.
"Jack" the door was open.
"Everything ok in here?" he asked while stepping inside.
"No, Daniel everything is not ok in here… I dropped my glass"
Daniel could see Jack kneeling on the floor picking up shards of glass.
"What do you want Daniel?"
Jack turned his head around briefly to glance at Daniel.
"Well, I came to see how you were?"
Jack stood up and turned to look at Daniel and put his hands in his pockets.
"Well, I'm fine Daniel, thanks for asking…anything else?"
"Jack, don't be an ass. You're not fine. I know it, hell, the whole base knows it. What's going on with you?"
Jack sits down heavily in his chair and moves his hands over his face.
"Daniel I'm really not in the mood for a heart to heart right now"
"You know there's only a week to go"
"Week till what?"
Avoiding what the answer's going to be Jack focus's on a spot on the floor and puts his hands on his thighs.
"Sam's wedding Jack."
Daniel shuts the door and leans against it, staring straight at Jack who's avoiding eye contact.
"It's her big day Jack the least you could do is be happy for her. Why are you so worried anyway, she's still gonna be on the team. I'm sure she'll still let you call her Carter, even though she'll be Major Shanahan. It has a ring to it don't you think."
Making sure Jack can here every word he raises his voice slightly and turns his head to the side nonchalantly.
"Major Shanahan… He loves her a lot and she loves him. I guess they'll have kids and then Sam most likely will remove herself from the front line."
"Shut up Daniel"
"It's not as if you care about her, what happens to he…."
"For christs sake Daniel shut up…"
With that Jack slams his hands on the arm rests of his chair then gets up at speed and slams his hands on his desk.
"I love her and it feels like someone is ripping out my heart right in front of my eyes and there's nothing I can do about it! …nothing …son of a bitch."
Just what Daniel was expecting although it was a little more dramatic than he expected. He knew Jack had to vent. That he was keeping all his feelings locked up and as the wedding was getting nearer he was getting a little more afraid.
