Under the microscope - part 5
Okaay, so I might have to up the rating to Mature for this chapter for one bad four letter word. If its likely to offend you, skip the first line. If its likely to offend you so much that you want to skip the chapter ... then there's not a lot I can do other than say sorry!

M - Daniel. I am in deep shit. I need help.
D - Michaela Dawson, you are far too young to be using language like that.
M - Shut up, Danny, I'm really in trouble!
D - Okay, calm down, and tell me what's up.
M - Jack and Sam aren't speaking to me.
D - Well, Jack I can understand, you two are always arguing, but Sam? What did you do? She doesn't fall out with people easily, but when she does, it's pretty bad.
M - Well, I don't think she's speaking to me. Jack's certainly not.
D - Alright, what exactly happened?
M - After you left the conversation half an hour ago, me, Jack and Sam kept talking, and I teased Jack a bit, and we had a minor argument that got slightly out of hand, Sam intervened, and I was, well, a bit sarky with her. Jack got on the defensive on her behalf, I made another not-so-smart comment, and they both made an excuse and left.
D - Okaaaaaay. It certainly sounds like they're both a little pissed at you. Depending on what you actually said, you can probably make it up to Sam by groveling.
M - You think that'll work?
D - Probably. If you show her you're genuinely sorry I'm sure she'll come round.
M - What about Jack?
D - How pissed at you would you say he is, on a scale of 1-10?
M - About 7. Maybe 8.
D - Ouch. Okay, stay out of his way for today, then maybe do a bit of groveling tomorrow. If he snipes at you DO NOT fire up and talk back. Just let him say what he has to say, and let it be.
M - Okay. Thanks Daniel.
D - No problem. And Mickey?
M - Yeah?
D - Try not to make a habit of this. You're the best admin help we've ever had and I really don't want you getting reassigned.
M - Awww, thanks Danny. You're making me tear up.
D - Just make it up with Jack and Sam, okay?
M - Okay. See you later.

D - Sam, you there?
S - Hey Daniel.
D - I, er, just heard from Mickey.
S - Yeah?
D - She says you're pissed at her.
S - Did she.
D - So you are?
S - A little.
D - What exactly happened?
S - She and the colonel were winding each other up, and I got some of the backlash.
D - She's really sorry.
S - Good for her.
D - She was really worried that you weren't talking to her. I told her groveling might help.
S - Yeah, it probably will. Won't work with the colonel though.
D - He pissed at her too?
S - Even more so. I think he was more offended by what she said than I was. And then she made a snipey comment about how quickly he jumped to my defense, which kinda pissed us both off, especially considering how much she keeps going on about me and him. Not that there's anything to go on about.
D - Well, anyway, I just thought you should know that she is really sorry.
S - I know. They both just got a bit carried away.
D - So you're not going to stay mad at her?
S - Depends how good a groveler she is.
D - Fair enough.
S - How's the translation going?
D - Slowly. Very slowly. It's an extremely obscure Goa'uld dialect.
S - I should let you get back to it.
D - Yeah, probably. Play nicely with Mickey.
S - Ha! She'll be lucky. Have fun with the translation.

M - Sam? Are you there?
S - I'm here.
M - I'm really really sorry about what I said. It was way out of order, I just got a bit carried away. You know what I'm like.
S - Yeah, I guess.
M - Forgive me?
S - Maybe.
M - Would a chocolate bar do it?
S - Not quite.
M - Bowl of jello?
S - Blue?
M - Of course.
S - Go on then.
M - Thank you thank you thank you! You're an angel Cat, I love you! Won't be a tick, and you shall have your jello!
Hope you enjoyed it! Thank you to everyone who's reviewed so far, I really appreciate it.
Beka :-)
