Disclaimer - You really think this shippers mind could possibly own such a
programme. All you would get was S/J scenario after scenario, for ten
seasons. So you guessed right, I dont own the programme MGM and Gekko and
all those other peeps do. I just use the characters for my own little
warped stories. And do you really think I get paid, YEAH RIGHT, I don't
think so.
(OK so this is the second of my blues series, not in a chronological order though. This takes place sometime after Sam and Jack have been having a relationship. Their friends know, SGC doesn't, I stress YET, that may all change. To see how Sam and Jack got together refer to Birthday Blues, the first of the blues series, where it all started. I think this will carry as a story by itself, but I'm not sure, lets see shall we)
Summary - The gang take Cassie to a Karaoke bar for her sixteenth birthday.
Now on with the show

THE OFF
"Sam come on"
Sam grinned and took another look at herself in the mirror as the impatient banging from the birthday girl echoed through to her. She ran a hand through her hair softly once more and smoothed out the top of her dress before spinning round and scouring the closet for her shoes.
"I'm coming Cassie, tell everyone to wait in the car, I just gotta find my other shoe"
Sam yanked a shoe from the closet, looking for its pair as she yelled behind her. She heard and impatient 'whatever' and the hammering on the door stopped. Sam grinned and flung a few contents of the closet behind her onto the bed.
"Uh Major, if you think your gonna get through tonight, dressed like that without us making few excursions to the bathrooms or car or even the back room your quite mistaken"
Sam smiled, picked up the pair to the shoe in her hand and spun round, wiggling a little in the blue dress, fitted dress she was wearing.
"I can't imagine what your suggesting Colonel"
She bent down lifting a foot and slipped on one of the shoes, then the other. Shifting her feet in the shoes to make them more comfortable. As she stood Jack was already advancing, she held up a hand and pushed him softly away.
"No time Jack, the others are waiting"
Jack shrugged and took the hand pressing into his chest wiggling his eyebrows.
"What's ten more minutes"
Sam snorted and prised her hand from his, slipping quickly past him to the door.
"Ten minutes Jack? Who do you think you are speedy Gonzales?"
"Are you complaining about my 'technique' Major?"
"On the contrary Jack" replied Sam walking down the hall to the front door, picking up her clutch bag from the hall table "I like your technique. Now move your sweet butt Colonel, there's an impatient sixteen year old waiting for us"
Jack passed her to open the front door, slightly grumbling. Sam ran her fingers softly across his jaw and pouted.
"Cheer up Jack. It's only for a few hours. Maybe you could give Cassie the same rendition of 'Happy Birthday' that you gave me"
Jack scowled, and opened the door further for her.
"Don't even think about mentioning it to them Sam"
Sam waited for him to close the front door, and headed down the front porch where she could see an impatient crowd waiting for them in the cars on the driveway. She headed for Janet's car, which was housing Cassie and Janet, as she opened the passenger door, Jack, passed her to his van.
"Or what Jack?"
Jack did an about face and frowned wondering what she was talking about.
"Don't think of mentioning it or what?"
She winked at him, flashed him her most sensuous smile and pulled the door open further, wiggling her hips before sliding into the seat. Jack could only stare before Daniel leaned over to the wheel and gave the horn a firm push. Jack raised his arms.
"Yeah yeah I'm coming," he said as he opened the door and slid into the driver's seat. He gave Daniel a scowl; Daniel gave him a shake of his head and grinned.
"When you and Sam have quite finished your over the top flirting, some of us would like to get to the party before it's over"
"Shut up Daniel. If you don't like the pace you could always walk, you may get there faster"
"I'm sensing a little 'tension' here Jack"
Jack pulled the car from the driveway and headed into town. He gave Daniel a side way glance to see his friend arms folded, with a cocky smile on his face looking out of the front window. He glanced in the back mirror to see Tealc also staring straight ahead.
He cleared his throat and relaxed as he drove, it was still bright. Early evening, the sun was just starting to set, but he wore his sunglasses any way, because he knew he looked good and he loved, how Sam looked at him when wore them as well.
"So explain to me one more time why the doc couldn't just throw Cassie a party at home? Or I could have had one at my house for her, with a barbecue and everything."
Daniel chuckled to himself, and turned to face his friend, who was languidly driving, one hand on the wheel another lying on the open window frame.
"Well for one, Cassie had a party at home with her friends from school but she wanted to spend her birthday with her family as well. Of course being sixteen she feels mixing friends and family would be a bad thing. She has a reputation to protect."
"In other words she was afraid we would embarrass her"
"Exactly. How many sixteen year olds do you know that want to hang out with their 'Aunts' and 'Uncles' on their birthday in front of their friends?"
"On Chulac, it was customary for a child's 'birthday to be celebrated by all regardless of age"
"Yeah well here on earth it's considered un-cool to be seen hanging with more 'mature' people whom your also related too"
"Which brings me back to my point. Why the hell are we going out? Why couldn't we have a party at mine or Sam's or Janet's?"
"I'm not saying Cassie doesn't like being seen with us ever, just not all the time, plus like I said, it's just us, not with all her friends as well. If she sees any person she knows, all she need say is we dragged her into it"
Silence reigned for a moment; Jack glanced at Tealc and saw his friend musing over the given information. The jaffa understood humans, but teenagers were a whole different ball game. Jack sighed and turned the car onto the road, which would take them into the heart of the town.
"So why Karaoke? Couldn't you have persuaded Cass to choose a 'quieter' place?"
"And spoil all the fun?"
"I am looking forward to the experience. From what DanielJackson has explained, Karaoke sounds like an interesting past time"
"Oh I'm sure Daniel has been very enthusiastic. Tell me Daniel, are you planning on giving us a rendition of anything in particular"
He looked over at Daniel, who rolled his eyes and averted his eyes to the front of the vehicle once more. Jack took the opportunity to egg him on more.
"Oh come on Daniel. Your gonna have to show Tealc what all the fun is about. Don't tell me you haven't got a list in your head of what songs you're gonna sing"
Daniel shot him a look and smiled a knowing smile.
"Is that why your so edgy Jack. Are you afraid we'll embarrass you, or even more we may get you to sing?"
"Flyboy if you can get yourself up on stage and sing, I sure as hell will"
"Yeah right, whatever Jack"
"Ya sure ya betcha"
Daniel stared at him disbelivingly, Jack shot him a look as he pulled in at the Karaoke bar; Janet pulled up beside him in her car.
"You would really get up and sing in front of all those people."
"Anything you can do.."
"Oh please Jack, you like the spotlight, but singing?"
"I can sing"
He caught the look Tealc gave him and turned in his seat to glare.
"What?"
Tealc bowed his head for a moment, and stepped out of the car a smile on his lips. Jack turned to Daniel, but he had made a quick exit himself and was headed towards the entrance. He slipped off his seat belt, opened the car door, and exited himself. Cassandra grabbed Tealc's arm and started pulling him with her towards the door Janet walked beside them. Sam waited while Jack locked the car and slipped an arm round his waist following the others.
