He’s watching me; he must think I’m asleep. I’m trying to stop the smile tugging at my lips but I think I’m doing a poor job because I hear him chuckling softly.

We’ve been together on SG-1 for 4 years now and it’s getting harder and harder to hide my feelings for him. Hell, I can’t even lay next to him on missions for fear I’ll sidle up to him in my sleep.

Daniel hates the fact that all that’s keeping us apart are the regulations. Sometimes I feel like telling Jack how I feel anyway, to hell with the regs, but I know I’d wake up in the morning regretting it. When Jack I get together, I don’t want to have to hide it or have any regrets. I want it to be perfect.

I know I try to appear tough but the truth is I dream of being swept of my feet, how ever clichéd it may sound and I want it to him doing the sweeping.

He’s going to wake me soon for my watch so I should probably at least try and get some sleep. Rolling onto my back I sigh and hear him chuckle yet again, we’re really gonna have to talk about this ritual of his. Again I have to fight the urge to smile - all I want to do is sit up and stare into those gorgeous brown puppy dog eyes and really tell him all I have to say.

So when he wakes me, I’ll ask him out to dinner and tell him how I feel, and then hope he feels the same… But I’ll wait till he wakes me.
