Synopsis: Fourth in the series. The girls were having fun. Daniel is called back to deal with the consequences.

Disclaimer: If it was mine would I be writing fics?

A/N- I was inspired the other night with this idea when it actually rained here for almost 2 solid days. I'm thinking this may be multi-chapter. I can't shake the muse.

Thanks to Becca- the Queen of betaing. The chapter title is homage to Reg Reagan.

Chapter 1: Bring back the Biff

Vala decided at that very moment she loved the rain. The sensation of water droplets washed away any of the sad feelings she had had previously as she lifted her face towards the sky.

Sam and Vala had just finished at the cinemas when the downpour started. Sam, not wanting to get wet, quickly found some shelter to escape the bucketing rain.

"Vala! Get out of the rain. You're gonna catch a cold," Sam yelled at her from a bus shelter a few metres down the street from where Vala was standing.

"I don't care, Sam. I'm staying here. You'll have to come get me if you want me under there," Vala spat back, eyes glaring at her friend.

Sam sighed and walked over to Vala and put her hand on her arm. "Come on, I'll take you home," she said quietly.

Vala continued to stay where she was. "Home. That's a funny word really. I read it in Daniel's book. Dick something."

"Dictionary?"

"Yeah, that's it. It tells you the meanings of all the words. And, did you know that it has a lot of meanings all pertaining to a similar theme? After reading all that, I was no closer to finding out where 'home' actually was."

"And have you ever heard the saying 'Home is where the heart is'?" Vala nodded her head. "Home, Vala, is where your family is. Like it or not, we're your family. Me, Cam, Teal'c," she paused, "And Daniel."

Vala smiled. At that point in time, both women were completely drenched from the rain, but they didn't care. This conversation would change their friendship. "I've never had a real family, Sam. General Landry is the closest thing to a father I've had in years. Cam and Teal'c are like brothers and you're like my sister."

"What about Daniel? Does he count?" Sam queried, still unsure of the relationship between the two.

Vala grinned and sought the right words. "Daniel is what you would call, um…a friend with benefits."

Sam doubled over with laughter. "That's not something I would normally describe Daniel as."

"He does love me, Sam, as I do him."

"I'm happy for you both," she paused, "So when are we going to see little Vala's running around?" Sam smiled, unaware of Vala's misfortune.

Vala's eyes sunk and she lowered her head, unable to look at Sam.

"Are you okay? Did I say something?" Sam put her hand on Vala's shoulder.

Suddenly, Vala swung her fist at Sam and landed the punch square on her mouth. Sam stumbled backwards and stunned onlookers watched as Sam, without thinking, returned the punch just as quickly as she received it.

The fight continued for a few minutes before a police detective came flying out of an unmarked car and began to pull the two women apart He grabbed onto Vala and got smacked in the mouth for his troubles. With a muffled curse, he turned to face her once more and pulled out his handcuffs.

"Ok Rocky, you're coming with me." He held Vala's hands behind her back and cuffed them together.

The policeman spun Vala around to look at her. "What's your name?"

"Vala Mal Doran," she spat at the officer.

The policeman then turned to Sam who had sat herself down in the gutter, head in hands. She lifted her face to see who was arresting them.

"Pete?"

"Sam?"

Equally as shocked, Sam and Pete remained silent as he placed the handcuffs on Sam's hands.

Pete Shanahan ushered the two into the back of the Police Car and drove them to the nearest station.

Half an hour later, Sam and Vala were hauled into a small holding cell where a brutish looking man who seemed worse off than they did watched menacingly.

"Who do you want me to call, Ms. Carter?" Pete asked formally.

Sam rolled her eyes at him, "Do you have paper and a pen? I'll write down the number." Pete made a small 'tsk' sound as he passed Sam what she needed. Don't 'tsk' me or I'll make Vala's punch look like a bee sting.

Vala sat there in the cell quietly with her head in her hands in shame.

"Ms. Mal Doran, is there anyone I can call for you?" Vala looked up at Pete.

"Who ever you're calling for her is fine; just tell them I want Daniel. They'll know what you mean," she replied quietly.

Sam passed the paper and pen back to Pete through the bars.

"The Sergeant will be here in a few moments to question you two." Pete warned as he handed Sam and Vala a blanket each before leaving.

Vala couldn't even look at Sam as she got up off the seat and moved to the furthest corner of the small cell. Tucking her knees up to her chest she sobbed quietly to herself. The man in the cell with them glanced upon her softly. "Are you okay, missy?" Vala was shocked at the question coming from the heavily tattooed and gruff appearing man.

"I'm fine," she replied wrapping the blanket tighter around her. She extended her hand to him. "I'm Vala by the way."

"Angus, but my friends call me Bulldozer," he replied shaking her petite hand with his.

An uncomfortable silence filled the room as Sam stared across at her friend. "I'm sorry if I hurt you, Vala," she apologised.

Vala lifted her head and shook it. "No, I threw the first punch, I should be saying sorry to you. I don't know what came over me."

"You must have been upset about something."

Vala sighed. "I probably should have told you sooner. Nearly everyone else knows."

"Knows what?"

"I can't have anymore children. Carolyn is working on a solution but it doesn't look promising."

"Oh My God! I'm so sorry, Vala. If I had known I never would have said anything. Is there something I can do to help?"

"That's ok, Sam. I should have told you sooner."

Sam smiled softly at her friend, "Do you think Adria had something to do with it?"

"Maybe. We don't really know."

Just then, they heard the man in their cell start to cry. He got up and moved over to Vala and hugged her tight. "Be strong, Little Miss

Vala let out a small giggle. "Thank you."

Sam looked at Vala, "It's gonna be okay, Jack and Daniel will come and they'll sort everything out."

"I hope so."
