Fandom/Pairing: Stargate SG-1 (season seven), Jack/Daniel
Disclaimers apply. I was stuck on a title and then thought of this song that’s on my playlist by Death Cab for Cutie =p
Request: cocacat15’s line-based challenge (it’s my opening line)
Summary: Memories can do this to you, y’know. ^_^
Notes: I almost didn’t write tonight. I really, really didn’t want to, so I want to thank cocacat15 for having a request that got me to still make my personal requirement. =) 

Ok ,you know you've lost your mind when you laugh and cry at the same time, he thought. But how else could he react?

It had happened so suddenly, sweeping aside all other thoughts and flooding his senses with memory. Memory, something he had lost in the process of descending. He smiled as he wiped the tears off his cheeks with the back of his hand. Oh God, it had been worth every minute of struggling with amnesia for the past three months to be here.

He still didn’t remember his time while ascended and he doubted that everything had truly returned, but he had certainly gotten wind of more than enough to finally act. He started chuckling again as he turned onto the street that would take him to his ultimate destination. How many nights had he lain awake trying to sort out his feelings and figure out some complicated plan to see if he had some chance? It seemed fitting, somehow, that things would be so simple.

He didn’t want to let me go, he told himself happily. But we knew I couldn’t stay; so he said he’d wait. That spark of longing he’d thought he saw in Jack’s eyes hadn’t been his imagination! He felt overjoyed and relieved-nervous and a tad frightened. There weren’t second thoughts, were there? He doubted it. He could remember, now, how steady Jack was, how loyal. Too bad they had wasted time, although that hadn’t been under their control.

Now was the time to seize the moment and run with it. He laughed aloud at his rushing thoughts, suddenly giddy as he spotted Jack’s house ahead-the porch light was on as evening arrived. His heart beat quicker as he pulled into the driveway and his smile faded a little as his fingers tingled in anticipation.

Jack was waiting at the front door when he finally got out. He stopped on the bottom step of the porch and just stared at his friend for a good minute, letting all of his emotions lay naked in front of the other man. Jack’s eyes widened.

He grinned.
