"So, Daniel, did you get the ring we looked at last week?" Cassie asked as she led her mother's boyfriend into the living room?
Daniel looked around nervously, checking to see if Janet could hear.
"She's still getting ready," Cassie said as she saw his unease.
The archeologist sighed in relief, "Yeah, I got that ring. But I also got her a necklace to confuse her when I get down on my knee to propose."
The young woman smiled, she always liked how this man thought. "So, can I see it?" She asked with an innocent smile.
Daniel took a small box out of inside pocket of the black suit he was wearing. He handed it to Cassie and looked at her intently.
Cassie took the box quickly and opened it to reveal a small, golden chain with a heart charm on it that was framed by two circular charms – it was a bracelet. Upon closer inspection, she found that the circular charms were small Stargates and the heart had the symbol for Earth on one side and small writing on the other. "Uh, Daniel, this is a bracelet, not a necklace."
"I know. I got that for you."
Tears welled in the girl's eyes, only a man as kind as Daniel would get something like that for her. He knew what it meant for her to finally have a home after Nirrti destroyed hers. The Stargate had saved her life and brought her to them. "Thank you so much," she whispered.
"What's it say on the back? It looks like Ancient?" She asked curiously.
"It is Ancient, and roughly translated it says, 'Flesh of my flesh, blood of my blood, beloved of my soul.' It's a phrase the Ancients used to have carved on everything they gave their children."
Cassie enveloped him in a hug, crying tears of joy into his shoulder. "First this planet gives me a new mother," she whispered, "And now I get a new father."
"I love you so much, Cassie. You'd make the best daughter in the universe. A woman any man would be proud to call his daughter."
"I love you too, Dad."
A/N: If you review it is more likely that I will update the story faster. Did you like this chapter? I thought it would be nice if Cassie got the bracelet, only Daniel would think of doing something that sentimental and sweet.
