Chapter 1: Reflection
Disclaimer – Definitely not my characters…They are absolutely amazing though!
Sam Carter sighed and looked out the window into the star strewn sky. She had never expected to be in this position. Reflecting on her history at the SGC, she remembered her that first mission to Abydos. In particular, she remembered Jack barely tolerating her combination of feminine wit, high intelligence, and military strengths. They had grown so much closer than she ever would have predicted that day.
She remembered her first impression of him as well. He came across as a little arrogant, certainly skeptical, but there was a hint of, well, fun, in his eyes. She wondered then if he might be a friend worth having, and hadn't been disappointing. Sure, there had been times were she was frustrated…infuriated actually, at his dismissal of her explanations of various 'doo – hickeys', but she never took it personally.
At the chime of the doorbell she turned away from the window and walked to the door. Her thoughts quickly drifted to the man she believed was standing on her front stoop. She would never forget meeting him either. She had been thrilled to finally have someone to talk to, and share her theories with. She'd never forget being called 'Captain Doctor' that day…or the look of embarrassment on Daniel's face after he shared a passionate kiss with Sha're. With that last thought she chuckled as she opened the door.
Daniel grinned to match her smile when the door finally opened. He always had loved that smile, as well as getting to see her feminine form in something other than BDUs. The jeans and green t-shirt she had on today complemented her particularly well.
"Ready to go Sam? I'm not sure they are going to wait for us."
She laughed, thinking about how eager Tealc had been for the party. "You know Daniel, I don't think Tealc gets out nearly enough. He has been talking about this shindig for days now."
"I think life at the base is starting bore him a bit. He loves being on the surface. I think he's going to miss it all when he leaves for Dakara."
Sam sighed again, as a small sadness once again penetrated her heart. "I sure know that I'll miss him."
