A/N: thanks for the feedback. Hope you like this chapter.
Chapter 17:
- Jack. – Janet was getting angrier.
- Well they drank too much. – he saw the anger and pain in Janet's eyes. Did he really want to be the one to cause her more pain? Hell no. But he had to tell her. She had the right to know.
- What did they do?
- They…
Before Jack could tell her anything Sam walked out.
- Jack, honey why don't you go help Daniel?
- Ok I will.
After he left Sam sat next to Janet. She avoided looking at her. Instead she focused her attention to her hands. She was feeling ashamed of what she had caused.
- So are you just going to sit there and say nothing?
- Janet I'm sorry.
- What happened?
- Nothing. I mean we drank too much. It was my fault.
- How? – Janet tried to sound calm but somehow failed.
- What?
- How was that your fault? – She was shouting now. – Did you force him to drink?
- No but it was my idea. He didn't want to drink. He told me that he was going to meet you after he left but I ignored him. He only drank because he wanted to help me.
- So what was it that Jack was trying to hide from me?
- He walked in… ad saw us.
- Saw you? Saw you doing what? – Then a look of understanding and horror appeared on Janet's face.
- Nothing like that. It might look a bit like that but it wasn't.
Janet couldn't believe in what she was hearing. What did she meant by it looked like that?
- I'll explain.
- You better.
- I got Daniel's shirt dirty from beer so I told him that I would wash it. He got his shirt off and I placed it in the dishwasher –she said the last word in a very low tone.
- What did you just say?
- Dishwasher.
Janet managed to let out a smile.
- I started crying. I didn't tell Jack this. We just cried ourselves to sleep. That was it but when Jack came in I was lying on top of a shirtless Daniel. Nothing happened ok? I swear.
Janet had been processing every word Sam was saying. A part of her wanted to believe but there was this part of her that had always been jealous of Sam. She and Daniel had an amazing relationship. They were best friends and more than once had Janet wondered if that was all they were. Than there was Jack. Sam loved him. But what did she feel for Daniel?
Sam noticed that her friend was in an internal debate.
- Look I would never do that to you ok? Neither would Daniel. He loves you very much and so do I.
- I know.
For the first time since the conversation started they looked at each others' eyes.
- Illogical jealous, hum? – asked Sam with a smile on her face.
- Not that illogical but yeah.
Sam hugged Janet.
- I'm so sorry. – Sam was still feeling guilty.
- Not your fault.
- You aren't going to be too hard on Daniel are you?
- Well he shouldn't have been drinking.
- Janet. Come on.
Janet smirked at that. They both walked into the house.
