Sam tried to ignore the reality of what Jack just told her but she knew she couldn't keep doing it much longer. She eventually caved and decided it was time to go home. She cleaned up her lab and went to find Daniel, she knew she couldn't tell Jack why she was leaving and she knew she couldn't just leave. She figured if she told Daniel she was having a rough day he would assume it was Pete and having the loving heart he did he tell Jack for her and not make her talk about anything. While she walked to his office she thought of the best way to say it so Daniel wouldn't ask too many questions she finally had a perfect conversation worked out in her mind when she got to the door but suddenly she forgot it all when she heard two men arguing inside the room.

"Jack you have to tell her. It's the only way."

"And how am I supposed to do that?" Jack was practically yelling. "I knew I would regret telling you." He took a breath and calmed down.

"I know you how you feel about talking but you need to do it."

"It's not that simple, Daniel."

"Nothing has ever been simple when it comes to you guys, and yet, somehow, you make it work." Daniel said.

Jack sighed knowing he was right. "Even if I wanted to it's not like we can talk now. I mean she just lost her husband for crying out loud."

"Well you don't have to do it now-now just before you move."

"That's still too soon."

"If you don't do it now, then when will you? You know it won't happen after you move, after you move you'll never see each other, which I why you need to talk in the first place."

"It's all too soon." He shook his head. "It's just not the right time."

"Then why are you doing this now?"

"Because I am." Jack snapped. "Because I have to." Daniel stared waiting for Jack to say more. "Because I love her." Jack finally admitted. "Don't get me wrong, I've known for quite some time now that I've had feelings for her, very strong feelings, but it wasn't until that kiss that I realize just how strong…. And to be honest, it scares the hell out of me."

Finally Daniel was speechless.

"Holy Hannah." Sam said to herself.
