"Honey, where are you? You won't believe what Teal'c and Daniel did on base today," Shouted Sam's boyfriend of three months.
Jack finally found her curled up on their couch.
"There you are," Jack said in a now quieter voice, "What's wrong, Sam, you look depressed."
"I'm just lonely; I hate staying home sick," Sam whispered.
"Well, I'm home now."
Jack reached to cuddle with Sam, but Sam pushed him away.
"I don't want to make you sick to. Believe me it's no fun."
With a heart-shattering grin plastered to his face, Jack embraced her anyway.
"You're worth it."
