Welcome to my new Fan Fiction. Yes, it's yet another Jack and Martha story. They're my favourite couple to write about, so yeah.
Warning: There maybe some stuff in this fic that isn't suitable for younger readers. It may include sexual references, sexual situations, violence, adult themes and a bit of course language. So, you have been warned.
Summery – This story is set about a year and a half into the future. Let's say around…. mid 2008. Martha and Jack have been happily married for almost two years and they have a 7 month old daughter together.
Since this is my fic; I can change things in the past. Here's a few……
# Martha and Jack still went through their rough patch at the end of 2006, but they sorted it out.
# Jack never had his accident.
# Ash and Sam never existed. So J/M never had relationships with other people during their short time apart. Meaning Martha never cheated.
Hmm, I think that's all for now, so on with the story.
CHAPTER ONE
Jack opened his eyes, but then squeezed them shut again. A bright ray of sunshine was peeking through the curtains and it was shining directly onto his face. He snatched up a pillow and held it down over his face; trying his hardest to block out the light.
He inhaled deeply. The pillow smelt like Martha. You'd think that after a month, the smell would have disappeared. It probably would have disappeared if Jack hadn't of kept spraying Martha's perfume over it every few days or so.
The smell kept him sane during most nights. When it was dark and he couldn't see; he'd inhale the scent and it would actually feel like she was there with him. What was the harm in pretending that she was there?
Jack sat up and let the pillow fall from his face. He looked across to the clock; noting that it was only seven in the morning. He flung his legs over the side of the bed and stood up. He grabbed a singlet that was hanging over the side of a chair, and pulled it on. He opened the door to his room and walked out; heading down the hall towards Alexandria's room.
He was just about to walk into her room when he heard a playful squeal coming from the lounge room. Jack smiled to himself and headed back in the other direction. He entered the lounge room and found his brother playing on the floor with Alexandria; his daughter.
She was seven months old now and was now starting to crawl around. Jack kept his mouth shut and watched the pair in amusement. Lucas would roll away and then Alexandria would quickly crawl towards him; only to have Lucas roll away from her again. For some reason unbeknownst to Jack, Alexandria found this highly amusing and would burst into a fit of baby giggles. But, that was babies for you. They laughed at the most silliest things. And in his daughter's case, the silliest thing was practically anything that Lucas did.
"I still don't understand what it is about you that she finds so funny," Jack finally made an appearance. "Because lets be honest; there's nothing amazingly great about you," he laughed at Lucas.
"You're just jealous because she doesn't laugh at the things you do," Lucas smirked at his older brother.
"She laughs at me plenty," Jack scoffed.
"Really? Show us then," Lucas asked,
"I don't feel like it," Jack shook his head as he sat down on the couch.
Lucas laughed. "Yeah, coz you know that I'm right and you're wrong. She won't laugh at you," he looked proud of himself.
"Whatever," Jack muttered.
"Touchy," Lucas mumbled under his breath.
Jack laughed. He liked having Lucas around. Lucas had been staying with Jack for the last three weeks; keeping him company. The house had been so quiet with just himself and Alexandria there, so it was great having Lucas around. And Alexandria seemed to love him.
"What time are you heading off to see Martha?" Lucas broke the silence with a question.
Jack shrugged. "As soon as I get ready, I guess. I need to bathe Alex first and she needs to have something to eat too," he answered.
Jack then dropped himself down onto the floor and pulled Alex into his arms. She reached a hand out and touched his face. He smiled at her. She was such an angel.
"Well if you want to go and have a shower, I'll get her breakfast ready," Lucas offered.
Jack nodded. "Alright. Thanks," he said as he gave Alex a quick kiss and then stood up.
He headed off towards the bathroom and before he even reached the door he could Alex's giggles echoing though the house again.

Jack reached down and pulled Alex out of her high chair. "Let's go and see mummy," he cooed at her. He then looked over at Lucas who was now getting himself some breakfast. "Thanks for getting her ready," Jack said.
"No problem," Lucas waved it off. He then peered down at Alex. "Besides, we had fun making a big mess with your breakfast, didn't we?" he laughed at his niece.
Jack picked up his car keys and Alex's change bag and then headed towards the door. "Great, if that's the case then you can now have some fun by yourself cleaning up that big mess," he laughed as he headed outside.
"I'm not your maid," Lucas' voice was heard calling out.
Jack just kept laughing and walked towards his car.
"Is that boy giving you grief," another voice joked.
Jack looked up and spotted his father walking up the driveway. He smiled. "Na, we're just messing around," Jack answered as he strapped Alex into her baby seat.
Tony just nodded. "Are you going to see Martha?" he then asked.
"Yeah," Jack answered as he looked down to the ground.
Tony sighed. "You know, things are going to turn out great. Everything is going to be fine and things will go back to normal," he said to his son.
"I just want her back," Jack exclaimed.
"I know you do," Tony said. "We all want her back," he then added.
Jack smiled lightly and then headed around to the other side of the car. "I should probably go," he told his father.
"Yeah, no problem. I'll see you later then mate," Tony gave a small wave and then walked up to the house to pay Lucas a visit.
Jack sat in the driver's seat and slammed the door. He then rested his head on the steering wheel and let out a loud sigh. He missed her. He missed her like crazy. Things just didn't seem right without her around.
A gurgling sound coming from the back seat brought him back to attention. He sat up and looked around at his daughter.
"Let's go Joey," he smiled. "We don't want to keep your mother waiting, do we?"

PLEASE REVIEW
Well, there it is; the first chapter.
Just to let you all know; I will be taking my time with this story, so there probably won't be updates everyday. Probably one every two or three days.
