NEXT WEEK:
"Sam?" Daniel asked tentively, looking around the lab with cautious eyes.
Sam's head appeared from behind her laptop and about 20 books, "Yes Daniel?" She smiled sleepily.
Daniel was instantly concerned for her, "Sam. Did you sleep any last night?"
She blushed, "N-Not quite."
Daniel suppressed a shudder as his mind unwillingly wandered in that direction, "Sam, if you don't get some sleep I'll call Janet in. And I get Jack to back me up."
She yawned, "Maybe a few hours would do me some good."
Jack wandered in, took one look at Sam, "Sam, go home. Take the rest of the day off. You look exhausted."
She glared at him, "I don't want to go home. I just need 3 hours of sleep, some coffee and blue jello, and I'll be good to go."
Daniel decided to pick sides with Jack at this moment, "Sam, you should. You look as if you've pulled all-nighters all week. You're really pale."
"I just don't feel so good. It's probably just the flu." Sam defended herself.
"In that case you should definitely go home. You're no good to anyone if you're sick. If there is some planet threatening incident that we need you for, we'll call you with the details for our funeral." Jack joked, then winced as Sam hit him on the shoulder.
"Fine. I'll go home, but you, Jack O'Neill, are not going to stay here all night." Sam said severely.
"Scout's honor." Jack said, teasingly.
Daniel decided to leave at that moment, before they got any mushier. Ugh. I don't know if I preferred it when they were in denial. Daniel thought with a wry smile.
INFIRMERY:
"Hey Janet." Janet looked up from her books as Daniel walked in with a wry smile on his face.
"Mushy gushy?" Janet guessed, having walked in on Jack and Sam making out more than once.
"Yep. Sam was pulling an all-nighter. Sort of." Daniel said, grimacing.
Janet winced as a mental picture came unbidden, "Oh. She going home?"
"Ya, seemed that she was a little under the weather. Flu, or something like that." Daniel said, sitting on a empty bed, "Have you seen Yu?"
Janet was puzzled, "Huh?"
"Their dog. They couldn't think of a name, so Jack named it Yu." Daniel explained.
"As in the goa'uld?" Janet asked, smiling.
"Yep. By the way, how was Cassandra doing?" Daniel was wondering how his 'niece' was doing.
"Very good. Enjoying high school." Janet said, going to her office to grab the latest school picture.
"She's getting to be a very pretty young lady." Daniel said, smiling at the memory of when he had first met her.
"Yes, she was actually asking about you yesterday." Janet said, sitting on the next bed, facing Daniel.
"Really?" Daniel was interested.
"Ya. She was wondering if she could use one of your Egyptian relics for a project." Janet said smiling.
Daniel laughed. Cassie had gotten into the habit of asking him for different artifacts for her class projects, knowing that he couldn't say no to her, "Which one?"
"I think that she wanted one of the headdresses. I'm not sure of which one." Janet replied.
"Just tell her to come down here and pick one out. I don't have any use for them. She can keep it as soon as we take all of the goa'uld stuff off." Daniel said, smiling back at Janet. A idea came into his head, "Hey, Janet?"
"Yes Daniel?" Janet was curious.
"Would you like to, um, go grab some coffee after we get off?" Daniel said, getting really embarrassed.
"Sure. I know this really good coffee place in town that we can go to." Janet said, grinning. Daniel FINALLY asked me out! Cass was right!
NOT THE END YET BUT CLOSE!

I also got a review that someone thought that this would all be memos. Would you all like me to go back to them? (More Agent X (flip to earlier chapters)) I like the real life stuff, but its up to you guys.

(probably would be longer if they were memos, but can't promise anything.)
