The SJ Fic

There was no other explanation for it: Samantha Carter was in love.

Not being the sort to waste time with flights of fancy, she was quite astonished, one day, to find herself mesmerized with the memory of a pair of soulful, brown eyes. Those unforgettable orbs were as deep chocolate pools, the sort in which a woman could happily become immersed and never leave. Those beloved irises could lighten to a pleasant toffee shade when the kissable lips below were stretched in a broad grin, or deepen to near-black when expressing anger or sadness.

Yes, Samantha Carter was in love, and no wonder. The recipient of her affections was tough enough that even Marines were afraid to step wrongly when her heart's love was on the warpath, but could just as easily be warm and gentle, especially where children were considered. Sam's lover was also possessed of a wonderful sense of humor, with an appreciation and penchant for both absurd jokes and sharp-witted remarks.

Alas, military regulations stood in the way. Both were officers in the U.S. Air Force, and their love could never be publicly declared... not until they were retired, anyway. Sam believed--and was confident her paramour felt the same--that their relationship was one which was well worth the wait. One day, either the rules would be successfully challenged or they'd both be too old to deal with intergalactic crises, and then they'd let everyone know how much they meant to one another.

"You ready to go?"

Startled from her daydreaming, Sam looked up and smiled. "Just finishing up a few last things. We taking my bike?" Her motorcycle was her pride and joy, and only a few special people had the privilege of touching it, let alone riding it.

The wicked grin was all the answer she needed, expressing the inner speed demon within the room's newest occupant. "You know how much I love that thing," came the teasing reply.

"I do," Sam laughed. "So, what's the plan for tonight? Anything special?"

"I was thinking a candlelight dinner at home, followed by a shamelessly sappy movie and some ice cream."

"Oh, we have the house all to ourselves tonight, do we?" Sam chuckled, switching off her computer and heading out the door.

Samantha Carter was in love, but thankfully, Janet Fraiser was in love with her, too!
