Why this must be read:

The Daniel/Sha're relationship ended on a note in canon that made many viewers cry their eyes out and break their hearts for eternity, this fan included. So it only makes sense to end this cycle of reccing with a fic that will do the exact same thing. Rachel gives an extremely emotional five kisses shared by Daniel and his beloved, four of which are not real and one which is heart-wrenchingly so, throughout the episode "Forever and a Day". From 1 to 5, these glimpses into Daniel's urgent need for Sha're makes the reader grab for their tissues and sanity, wishing like crazy that the last reality isn't Daniel's true home. And then the last hits and we're left with a broken Daniel, a mountain of tissues beside our computer consoles, and a heart that doesn't feel like it can be fixed...

Story Summary: Five kisses that weren't for real and one that was

5. A Kiss After Dying

Daniel crawls closer to Sha’re’s prone body. He’s oblivious to his team-mates; his attention all on her. He touches her cheek. It’s warm; her death is only moments old. For a brief moment he considers fantasising that she’s alive but the experience with the hand device has left him too unnerved and unsure of reality. He has to face it. He has to face her death.

It’s his worst nightmare.
