The Fallen Hero and her Love

A/N: Note that this has a Daniel and Janet shipper. Besides a wee bit language, the story's clean. MAJOR Heroes Part 2 SPOLIERS.

Sam's Lab

'And still after a year, Sam's as hardheaded as ever.' Janet thought. Three days after the dream Sam had somehow convinced herself that it had never happened and moved on.

Janet shook her head as she watched Sam bury herself in work. "I shouldn't do this but I will; for the good of it, I hope…" and then Janet disappears.

Daniel's Apartment

Daniel tosses and turns in his bed, sweat rolling off his face. His eyes open, filled with shock. When Daniel got out of bed, he went to his kitchen to grab a glass of water and drank it in one big gulp.

"Ehem…" Daniel cleared his throat. He's been getting up too much in the middle of the night, waking because of the same dream. We go to a flashback as Daniel picks up the used dishes.

Flashback

FRASIER: moving into screen Simon, Simon! Look at me you are not going to die, OK? I did not come all the way out here for nothing. Now we've stemmed the bleeding. We're gonna get you to a stretcher. We're going to get you home with your family in no time ok? Now you hang in there airman.

WELLS: Yes Ma'am

Sound of staff blast, bright flash of light shoots past the screen as it hits Janet square in the chest the force throwing her back with a cry

WELLS: Oh god what happened sound of gunfire is she hit?

Image moves to Janet

BOSWORTH: I got him.

JACKSON: Janet!

End Flashback

Daniel stopped what he was doing and let out a heavy sigh. It's been a year since it happened but it seemed to still shock him. Then Daniel grabs the glass cup and was going to head to the sink but was unprepared for what he was about to see. Daniel dropped the cup but she caught it before it hit the tile floor.

"Hi Daniel." Janet says with a small smile on her face.

"Janet, what are you doing here?" he says still in shock. She places the cup in the sink and walks over to him.

"It's nice to meet you too." She says sarcastically while still smiling.

They move into the living room and they both sit on the couch in silence. "So, how's life Daniel?" Janet asks

He looks at her with his bright blue eyes. She gets the hint and responds, "bad question…"

As they sit in more silence, she speaks up again. "What do you think about Sam's wedding?"

"I don't know, I feel happy for her, but personally, I thought she was making a desperate move." Daniel states. Then he adds, "But it's her life, she should be able to do whatever she wants to it."

"But don't you think you're hurting her but not telling how you feel? If you tell her, she'll probably listen to you."

"You're her best friend; she'll probably listen to you more."

"But she thinks I'm dead." Janet states. "Not ascended, not even close. I tried to talk to her."

After their little argument, "I'll see what I can do." Daniel says then wonders 'I wonder if this was how it was like for Jack whenever I saw him…'

"Thank you." Janet says with a smile. She was about to leave when, "Janet, will I ever see you again?"

"You can count on it."

"Oh and one more thing," Daniel statesTheir faces come close, and they seem hesitant at first but go for the full 100. The kiss was sweet and tender, and lasted a lifetime.

A/N: Thanx for all the positive reviews. I might get Sam and Jack together. Most probably. And if I don't I'll make sure Pete stays out of the picture. Thanx Gater101 for the inspiration for this one!
