Summary: Sam and Jack return to the SGC
Notes: I love feedback. I also just wanted to thank everyone who encouraged me to finish the first fic.
Sam and Jack returned to the SGC a week later. They hadn't done anything other than sleep next to each other. It wasn't that they didn't want to they just both agreed to weight until Sam's doctor cleared her for "physical" activities.
Jack strolled down the hallways of the SGC whistling and thinking about the past few months. If he was going to be honest with himself, which he was, Jack was happy that Sam came and got him. It was good to be back and he really liked the idea of waking up every morning with Sam in his arms even if they hadn't done anything. It had been such a long time since he truly loved someone and he was beginning wonder if he ever loved Sara as much as he loves Sam. Deciding not to dwell on it he focused his attention on his up coming talk with the General. He still couldn't the man called the president, way to go George. Knocking on the door to the General's office he took a deep breath and entered.
"Reporting as ordered sir"
Hammond smiled "At ease Jack and welcome back."
"Good to be back sir" seeing the look of uncertainty on Hammond's face he assured him "I mean that sir it is good to be back."
"Glad to hear that son. As I understand it Major Carter won't be ready for gate travel for another three weeks. Is that correct?"
"Yes sir it is. Doc wants to make sure her back can handle the strain and that she back to peek physical performance."
"I take it you want SG-1 to remain on world for those three weeks?"
"I can't speak for Daniel or Teal'c but I know I would like to remain on world, it that is ok with sir."
"It's fine with me and I will speak with Dr. Jackson and Teal'c but I don't see them having a problem with remaining earth bound for a few weeks."
"Thank you sir, for everything" he added smiling
"You more than welcome Jack. You two deserve happiness."
Jack smiled. That's what it was happiness that Sam had brought him and he was going to cherish every moment of it. "If that's all sir I'd like to go and see how Major Carter is doing."
"Now remember Jack no hanky panky while on base or on missions, that is where anyone can see you" the general replied winking. George couldn't help the little jibe. "Dismissed"
As he walked down the Jack couldn't but laugh at the general's language "hanky panky" his mother used to him that when he was in high school and he was going out on a date. He rounded the corner and ran right into the person he was going to see.
"Sorry sir" they had agreed that Sam should still call him "sir" at least when they were in public. When they were on missions with Daniel and Teal'c Sam could call him Jack but on world while at the base she would call him sir.
"It's ok Carter" Jack on the other hand tried as hard as possible to call her Sam but for some reason Carter always came out. It didn't bother Sam in fact she laughed at it. They had been military for so long that when they finally had no regulations holding them back they still called each other by ranks and last names. "I was actually coming to see you."
"Really sir, what about?" she was flirting and he knew it.
"Well Major I just spoke with Hammond and he agreed that SG-1 with be earth bound while you get yourself cleared. That is if Daniel and Teal'c decide not to go with any other teams. You know Danny and his rocks" she laughed
"Yes sir, I was actually on my way to grab a cup of coffee if you want to join me?"
"Lead on Carter" he replied with his hand outstretched in the direction of the commissary. For his efforts he was rewarded with a giggle. "What did I say about giggling?"
"Sorry sir" she as she giggled more
"You're hopeless" he replied as they walked down the hallway.

When they got to the Commissary they were greeted with a huge "welcome back" from most of the base personnel.
"It's about time you guys showed up, we about to start taking bets on when the Major would need a coffee fix" said Ferretti smiling "Welcome back you guys had been the same with you" he added giving Sam a hug and shaking Jack's hand
"Thanks Ferretti. It is good to be back" said Jack
"Yes thank you. You have no idea how good it is to be out of that hospital"
"It is indeed good to have you both back" added Teal'c
"Yeah we really did miss you guys" added Daniel giving Sam a big hug
"Oh hey did the general talk to you guys about staying on planet for the next three weeks while Sam gets better?"
"He did indeed O'Neill. Both Daniel Jackson and I have decided to remain on earth while Major Carter heals."
"Yeah it wouldn't and hasn't been the same going on missions without either of you" added Daniel
"I concur with Daniel Jackson. While Major Ferretti is a competent leader I found myself missing your jokes O'Neill"
"Really Teal'c, well I'm flattered"
"Don't get him started Teal'c. Now he will constantly be cracking jokes" added Daniel with a smile earning him self a jab from Jack.
"Come on lets get something to drink, space monkey" Jack added
When the party was over Teal'c and Jack went to go work out while Sam and Daniel went to her lab to see how much paperwork had piled up.
"Actually Teal'c and I kept your lab pretty clean."
"Really thanks. Did you do the same to the Colonel's office?"
"Are you kidding? Jack's office is a pit I wouldn't be surprised if something is living in there"
Sam laughed. She really missed talking with Daniel. While he came and visited her in the hospital every chance he got it wasn't the same as the banter they shared while working. Entering her lab Sam was pleasantly confronted with a lab that was cleaner than the way she had left it before their down time.
"Wow. You guys have been busy huh?" she said as inspected her equipment to make sure they hadn't broken anything. If Daniel's off world track record was anything to go by she was afraid of what he might have done to her naquada reactor.
"Don't worry I didn't break anything" he said sensing that was what she was doing in looking at her equipment. "Teal'c handled all the machines I simply cleaned up the paperwork."
"Well thank you" she said sitting on her work stool
"Should you be sitting on the stool like that? You with your back and all?" he asked concerned
"You're right I should probably get a different chair. Thanks" she replied stepping off the stool. "Is there something else you wanted to talk me about Daniel?"
"Actually yes, you and Jack seem happy."
"Is that a question or a statement?"
"Both. You guys are happy right?"
"Yes Daniel we are happy. We just decided to keep it professional while on base and off world."
Smirking he replied "you really think Jack will keep his hands off you while off world?"
"Out Daniel I have work to do" she said laughing as she pushed him out of her lab
"Fine but you didn't answer my question"
"Goodbye Daniel" with that she closed the door before he could say anything else. Laughing to herself she went back over to her work bench and began pulling out tools to work on her reactor.
