A/N

Thanks for all the reviews for 'Safe', I'm really quite overwhelmed by the response from you guys - thanks so much for all the kind words :-) this is the M rated continuation that I promised, so if you haven't read 'Safe' yet, please do so before you read this as this won't make any sense otherwise, and you won't know who the OC is.

And for those of you who have decided to come to the dark side...a few warnings:

- Slight bit of Sam/Deb in this chapter (very slight).

- Completely OOC for Sam and maybe Jack as well, but this is AU where Sam has a wild side and a past and Jack is not infallible

- for future chapters, there will be femslash, though Jack is there so maybe that should be a warning for threesome instead/ as well

- also for the next chapter, there will be serious M rated content. (Very strong M rated content)

And now for those who are still here after that...enjoy :-)

Deb stayed with them for a while, then begged off to go meet some other friends for a late dinner.

"It was nice to meet you Jack," she said as she stood from the table.

He gave her one of his rare genuine smiles. "Pleasure was all mine Deb."

"Ah, I'll walk you out," Sam said as she stood as well.

Sam took a deep breath of the cool DC air as she followed Deb out onto the street.

"So," Deb said as she pulled Sam to her. "You gonna hit that tonight or what?"

Sam groaned, her head falling forward onto her friends shoulder. "You know I can't."

Deb grinned. "How close is his room to yours?"

"Across the fucking hall!" Sam could feel the other woman start to laugh. "Shut. Up!"

Deb pulled back to look at her friend. "Hey I have to go...but call if you need me..." she said as she turned to go.

Sam grabbed a hold of her arm, smiling when she turned back to her.

Deb returned the smile. "Text me the address..."

"Well it's been fun Carter,"Jack said as he stood and stretched. "But I think it's time to call it a night."

Sam smiled. "I think you're right Si...Jack..."

They walked the short distance back to the hotel in companionable silence, the lack of conversation in the elevator somehow not as comfortable.

"Well goodnight," Sam said as they stopped outside their rooms.

"Goodnight Carter," Jack said with a smile, his hands stuck in his pockets. Then he looked down at his boots.

Sam frowned slightly. Is he...he almost looks like he's...nervous? Her breath caught as he glanced up at her through his lashes.

"Thank you by the way," he said softly. "For tonight I mean. I had a good time."

She smiled. "Me too."

Jack laid on his bed and stared at the tv not even seeing the hockey game that was playing. "Ah screw it," he said finally as he stood and slipped his boots back on heading out to find more beer.

He ended up back in the pub they'd been at and though he liked the place he only ended up staying for one drink, deciding to grab a couple to take back with him.

"Ah crap!" he said as he opened the door of the mini bar realising it wasn't working. He looked around for the ice bucket. "Double crap!" he mumbled as he realised the damned ice bucket was missing! Then he glanced at his door, thinking of Carters door and Carters ice bucket just across the hall.

Deb smiled when the door opened.

"You're earlier than I thought you would be," Sam said as she closed the door behind them.

Deb turned and pulled Sam to her, her lips just touching her friends. "You should have known I wouldn't be able to wait," she breathed.

Sam brought her hand up to cup the other woman's cheek moving forward that little bit bringing their lips into contact once more. She felt Debs tongue ghost along her bottom lip and she moaned into her mouth as a hand covered her breast.

"I've got a surprise for you," Sam whispered against her mouth.

Deb grinned as she kissed along Sam's jaw. "You invited Jack?"

Sam chuckled and gently pushed her away. "You wish!"

"Ha! And you don't!?" Deb replied as she dropped onto the bed.

Sam rolled her eyes at her friend. "You know as well as I do that it can't happen..."

Deb raised her eyebrows.

"No matter how much I might want it to," she admitted.

Deb gave her a sly smile and waggled her eyebrows. "Well I won't tell if you won't. And I'm sure as hell he wouldn't..."

"And I'm sure as hell he's not even remotely interested..."

"Oh really?" Deb replied as she stood and headed for the door.

"Where are you going?" Sam asked slightly panicked.

"Across the hall to ask him of course..."

"No!" Sam cried as she stepped between her friend and the door.

"Come on Sam," Deb argued. "What's the worst that could happen? He'll say he's flattered and turn us down..."

"He'll say he's flattered and turn you down! And then he'll have me court martialled!"

"Okay, okay," said Deb as she stepped away from the door. "I'll drop it."

"Good!" Sam replied with a pout. Then she brightened. "So you want this surprise or not?"

Deb smiled. "Do you even have to ask?"

Sam grabbed a bag off the floor. "I went shopping today," she said with a grin.

Deb saw the logo on the bag and grinned pushing her friend towards the bathroom. "Well get in there girl and show me what you got..."

"And since you didn't know you'd be seeing me today, who the hell did you go shopping at Victoria's Secret for?" she wondered aloud as the bathroom door closed.

Jack hesitated, his knuckles an inch from Carters door. He shook his head realising how ridiculous it was that he was so worried about knocking on her door to ask for an ice bucket. So he bit the bullet and rapped on the door.

"Deb," he said surprised, as she answered Carters door, his heart rate, and possibly some...other...things rising slightly at the look she gave him.

"Jack," she greeted. "Ears been burning?"

He frowned. "Huh?"

She smiled and shook her head. "Nothing."

"I just came over to see if I could borrow Carters ice bucket."

"Come on in," she said opening the door wider as she took a step back into the room. "Take whatever you want..."

Jack looked at her, his eyes moving slowly over her tall frame. He cleared his throat as his eyes moved back to hers. Say no, say no, say no...

"Yeah...okay," he breathed.
