Jack's Valentine's Day Surprise
By: Lynda Mayfield
"Hey, can you hear me?"
Sam smiled as she held her cell phone to her ear. "Yeah, reception sounds a lot better tonight. Are you in your car?"
"Yep."
Since Jack had moved to Washington, D. C., he called her every night. They had admitted their love for each other openly as soon as Landry took over command of the SGC. She probed, "Where you headed."
"Home."
"Home?"
"Yep."
"Did you have a long day at work?" She paced the floor of the kitchen while she talked, circulating into the living room occasionally to look out at the quiet night scene.
"Nope. Didn't work today."
"So . . . where are you going home from?" Did she HEAR him grinning into the phone?
"Uhhh, my other home."
"Jack, you're not making sense."
"Sometimes, I don't."
Then she realized he was making perfect sense. She made her way into the living room and peeked out the window. Not another word could she force from her mouth.
"Hi. Are you suprised?"
"I'm surprised." She hung up her cell and ran out the door, jumping into his arms as soon as he left the car.
