AN: Still procrastinating, so here ya go, chapter two...

The morning briefing had gone exactly as planned and now SG-1 were gearing up and chattering like excited school kids about to go on a field trip. Each of them was grinning from ear to ear and Daniel was still scratching at his now almost non-existent rash. "Stop that!" Jack demanded as he scratched his own neck. "You are making me itchy."

"I can't help it Jack, I am itchy!"

"Well stop it anyhow, you keep that up when we get to the gate room and you'll get us all grounded again."

"Oh stop being so dramatic. Janet would not have cleared me if she did not think I was ready for active duty again."

Behind Daniel's back Carter and the Colonel shared a dubious look. "Best not to take any risks though Daniel, I know I wouldn't, so stop from scratching." Sam offered, trying to keep things on an even keel.

"Easy for you to say, you're not the one who has been itchy and covered in scabs all week." He shook himself and once again began scratching his arm. "Besides the only way we are going to get grounded is if Janet catches me and that is not going to happen unless-"

"Desist Daniel Jackson, Doctor Frasier is in fact approaching." Teal'c advised.

Daniel laughed at the Jaffa's attempt at a joke. "Yeah right."

"Daniel!" Jack warned as he saw a shadow approaching the door.

Jackson instantly stopped scratching as the doc entered their locker room and threw her a nervous grin. "Ah good, you are still here. Forget something?" she inquired of the archaeologist.

"Ah...no I don't think so?" Daniel answered as he searched his brain for what it might be. Of course he had forgot something, he always did.

A hand rode out onto a shapely hip. "Honestly Jackson sometimes I do wonder about you...here." She shook his new antibiotic prescription bottle at him and reached it out towards him.

"I'll take that." Sam interjected and quickly snatched the bottle from Janet before her friend could take it.

"What? Why?" Daniel wanted to know.

"And I'll make sure he takes them all Janet." Sam continued, ignoring Daniel's confused outburst.

"Good, I'll see you all back here in a few days time. Stay safe out there." She was about to leave but Daniel was not finished yet.

"Wait, why did you let Sam take my medication? Am I not capable of taking it myself?" he protested, actually feeling slightly hurt.

Janet, hearing his tone turned back to face him. She sighed deeply and gave him a knowing look. "Daniel. Did you remember to come by and collect your prescription first thing?"

"No." the man admitted.

"And did you have any of the last one left?"

"No actually I didn't, so there you go, that proves that I can take my medication on time, so you can give it back to me Sam." Daniel crowed, stretching out his hand.

Sam was about to speak when Janet cut her off. "Not so fast. Daniel, when were you supposed to come back and get your next prescription?"

"Thursday."

"And this is..."

There was a pause. "Saturday."

"So that means..."

Daniel sighed, he hated it when Janet did this to him, especially in front of the guys, it was embarrassing. "Okay so I missed a couple of pills, what's the big deal?"

"The big deal is you got pecked half to bits by a giant alien chicken!" the doctor burst out, how could he not get that? She raised her voice as she continued her attempt at scolding the grown man over the top of the Colonel's and Carter's intense laughing. "And...stop it you two, this is serious! Daniel the implications could be quite serious. If you-"

"Alright, alright!" the Colonel interrupted, still somewhat jovially. "Daniel, Carter is looking after your medication, it's part of the deal for going off-world today. Doc, as hilarious as it always is to watch you berate Daniel, we are supposed to be in the gate room in exactly...yikes! Three minutes ago, so that'll have to do for now." He smiled mildly but with an air of authority and the doctor nodded, stepping out of their way before returning his smile.

"Teal'c, you know what to do." Jack crowed and tugged on his P-90.

"Indeed." the Jaffa intoned and with a faster than usual step, he lead the way to the embarkation room.

The other's stalled watching him go. His enthusiasm was hard to miss as he practically swung his might bulk around the corner. "Ahh...I think we'd better hurry, I don't think he'll hold the elevator." Daniel remarked.

"In that case, after you...chicken boy." Sam teased and signaled for Daniel to go first. The man audibly groaned.

"Chicken boy...nice one Carter, I was hoping there would be a time when we got to use that one again." the Colonel whispered into her ear as they left the room together. "And thanks for being the one to bring it up, you know I still can't after what happen the first time I called him that."

"Oh no problem Sir, and that's just the beginning of the teasing I've got planned. I've basically had all week to think about it...this is going to be fun!"

Janet watched as Jack nudged Sam's elbow as he answered her with his standard "Yeah sure you betcha'." She shook her head, those four were just the best bunch of people she knew...and now it was time to go eat more of the cherry pie that Sam had baked for her. Maybe she should keep one of them grounded more often...it could be the beginning of a beautiful bribery scheme...and some very clogged arteries, she reminded herself.

AN: Hehe, silly SG fun :) Heading off-world soon...but where to?
