Remember Me

Carter watched him go, it was the right thing to do, she didn't want him to waste his life on her, he had already wasted weeks on her now so she had lied to him and told him to leave when all she felt was some sort of deep connection with him that she couldn't shake, why couldn't she remember him?
'It was the right thing to do' she thought as she closed her door. Carter sighed as she walked back over to her bed. Just then she noticed the photo album on the edge of her bed that Jack had left there. She looked at it curiously, glancing over her shoulder she sat on the bed and picked it up. Sam opened it to the first page and saw a photo of her and Jack in the cafeteria laughing. Sam smiled down at it. She ran a finger over the photo and pursed her lips
"Why can't I remember you?" she muttered looking at another photo of Teal'c, Daniel, Jack and her ready to go through the gate. Sam looked at this for a long moment she could almost remember that day, it was when they were going to see her father and she remembered turning to someone but when she remembered turning she still couldn't see the face. Carter flipped through the photo album some more and some of the photos came back to her but not the ones Jack was in. Sam sighed still remembering Jack's face before he had left.
'Why can't I remember you, Jack? Why can't I remember you?...'

Jack walked along the corridor. He felt angry and annoyed at himself and at the situation. Not only she didn't remember him, she didn't even want to try. Jack walked towards his room when suddenly the alarm went off
"Unscheduled, off world activation" echoed the voice throughout the halls. Jack cursed to himself
'What now?' He thought as he turned and headed for the control room. Jack entered and saw Hammond leaning over the mic.
"Good luck SG-3" He finished before he stood again. Jack came up behind him
"What was that?" he asked trying to get his mind away from Sam. Hammond turned to him
"It was just SG-3 wanting to stay a little longer on the planet" He said noticing Jack's obvious agitated appearance "What's wrong Jack? Is Major Carter ok?" Jack placed his hands in his pockets
"Yeah she's fine. You know what Sir? She remembers everything, everything on this base but me and now she wants nothing to do with me because she doesn't know me" Hammond could see Jack was frustrated. The General placed a hand on his shoulder
"Give her time, I'm sure she'll remember everything soon, she's had a traumatic experience" Jack sighed
"Yeah I know" but Hammond could see he was still frustrated. Hammond looked at him knowingly.
"Jack why don't you take some time off, you've certainly earned it" Jack looked up at him and saw Hammond's face and saw that he wasn't suggesting it either. Jack sighed
"Yes Sir" He said before he left to go home.

Sam sat looking through the photo album when suddenly the alarm had gone off. Sam looked up and suddenly her head started to ache. She dropped the album and clutched her head for a long moment. She opened her eyes and stared at the album which had fallen open on the ground to a picture of Jack hugging Sam after a traumatic session off world. Suddenly it felt like a ton of bricks had hit her all at once. Flashes of memories came flooding back. She remembered everything from the first time she had saw Jack to when she had last talked to him days before boarding the plane.
"Colonel O'Neill. I remember everything" She whispered. Sam slowly raised to her feet as the pain subsided in her head. She had to find Jack and tell him she remembered him. Sam grabbed her crutch and as best she could flew out the door and to the control room to find Hammond staring at her as she entered
"Major is everything alright?" he asked concerned. Sam smiled
"Yes Sir, I think so. I need you find Colonel O'Neill. I remember everything" Hammond smiled
"That's good to hear Major but I just sent Jack home for some time off"
"Damn it!" Sam cursed she looked back at Hammond "Sir?…" Hammond smiled
"Do what you need to do Major" Sam smiled
"Thankyou Sir" she replied turning. She had to find him to tell him she remembered everything.
'I'm coming Sir… I remember you'

Jack made it home and threw his coat on the floor. He had tried to erase Sam from his mind on the car trip home but he wasn't successful. He tried to think of ways to help her remember him but he couldn't think of any and now he was frustrated beyond words. Jack grabbed a beer out of the fridge then plunked down on the couch and leaned his head back.
'Why does everything have to be so hard' He thought closing his eyes for a moment. Sighing he opened them again then went to take a sip of beer when someone knocked on the door. Jack groaned, now who could that be. He wasn't in the mood for visitors and thought about ignoring them, then thought better of it when they knocked again.
"Yeah, yeah, I'm coming!" Jack walked up the steps and flung the door open "What?" Jack's eyes went wide to see a familiar face standing at the door.
"Sir?" The woman said smiling slightly. Jack looked at her curiously.
"Carter?"
