# 015 - Into the Breach
title: Into the Breach
word count: 200
fandom: Stargate SG-1
challenge: #015 - Harry Potter
summary: Daniel faces the newest challenge in his relationship with Buffy-- shopping.
disclaimer: The words are mine; the worlds are not. I claim nothing but the plot.
notes: 5th in the Ugly Black Dress series. (Previous parts here: One Two Three Four). According to the airdate of the show, SG-1 found amnesiac Daniel on Vis Uban June 13, 2003. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix was released June 21, 2003.
Daniel awakened with a start, inexplicably certain that something was wrong. The light was too dim to be morning, and there was someone standing in his bedroom...
His heart rate spiked sharply, then calmed. Osiris had never come bearing coffee.
"Buffy," he mumbled, yawning. "What time is it?"
"Four thirty," the blonde intruder said cheerfully, holding a steaming mug within reach.
Daniel took in her fully-dressed appearance with puzzlement as he slowly sat up, then wrapped his hands around the warm cup. He clearly remembered going to bed with his girlfriend less than five hours ago; had she sneaked out for another patrol? "Why...?"
"Because the bookstore opens at six today?"
Even exhausted and decaffeinated, Daniel could recognize the overtones of 'duh' in her voice. He took a long swallow of coffee, trying to jolt his braincells, then groaned as he remembered her taste in reading material lately. She'd been re-reading the series-- this must be the day the sixth book was due. He vividly recalled trying to shop for a new wardrobe the day Order of the Phoenix had been released; the mall would be a madhouse if they didn't go early.
Only for Buffy. "Okay, okay, I'm up..."
