***********************************************
It had been two months since Sam was married to Pete and what he did to her. It had been a slow recovery for Sam but she was pleased to have her close friends there for her. Mark didn't know what had happened to Sam and thought that everything was fine.
The President had ordered that hidden cameras be placed in Mark's house and that his phones be tapped, both at home and at work, just in case Pete tried to call. Sam was living in Jack's house till she was able to get her own house since her house had been sold and she had moved into Pete's house the week before the wedding.
There had been no sighting of Pete. He hadn't left the country and his credit cards hadn't been used in that time. Sam had been on sick leave since she returned back from Washington and began living with Jack.
He had been there when she was having nightmares and when she woke up, she cried in to his arm as he held her against him till she fell asleep. He watched her sleep for few minutes before he returned back to bed himself.
One day Sam went for a walk. She walked down to the park and sat down on one of the benches and watched the kids play. She was heartbroken that she would never have kids of her own as she had to have an emergency hysterectomy to save her life because of what Pete had done to her. She was lost in thought till a young guy sat next to her.
"Hi!" he said. Sam turned to the guy.
"Hi!"
"How are you doing Sam? Jack told me what Shanahan did."
"I'm doing ok,"
"You don't look it!"
"Gee thanks, what are you doing here?"
"I was dropping by when I saw you walk down here, so I watched and waited for a while before showing myself."
"Ok!" He looked at her as she looked at the mothers playing with their children.
"I was just thinking before you showed up."
"What about?"
"That I wished I could turn back time and have never gone to San Diego. Then I wouldn't have met Pete and Mark wouldn't have had set me up with him and none of this would have happened."
"What would you like to happen Sam?" she turned and looked at the guy next to her.
"I don't know."
"What about Jack, do you still have feelings for him?"
"We are friends."
"You know what I mean. You and he were close, then Pete came along and everything changed."
"I know, I still care about him."
"A lot more than you're supposed to?" Sam nodded.
"Sam, was Pete your second choice after Jack?"
"Yes!"
"If there was an opportunity for you and Jack to be together, would you take it, no regs getting in the way?" Sam thought about it.
"Yes, but we can't."
"I know!" They turned and looked at the happy smiling mothers and their kids.
When Sam went to turn back to the guy, he was gone. She thought about what he had said, then looked back to the mothers and watched for few minutes before getting up and walking back to Jack's house.
Three days later the young guy showed up at area fifty-one to where he worked as he had taken a few days off to go to Colorado Springs. He kept in contact with Jack and he had been keeping him up to date on Sam and the rest of SG1.
One day Jon was asked to take the ancient time machine to the SGC since he had the ancient gene. So he flew the ship out of the hanger, cloaked the ship, and then headed to Colorado Springs. On the trip he thought about what Sam had said.
"That I wished I could turn back time and have never gone to San Diego. Then I wouldn't have met Pete and Mark wouldn't have had set me up with him and none of this would have happened."
"Sam, I'm going to make your wish come true," then he flew to the Springs.
When he got there, he went to Jack's place. He thought of a date in the past, then he heard humming then nothing.
He looked out to see Jack getting things ready for a barbecue; the young guy watched Sam walk out of the house and sit down on a chair.
The guy watched what was happening in front of him for the next four hours. When it was night time, the young guy left the cloaked ship and walked around to the side of the house.
When the time was right and he saw Teal'c, Daniel and Sam leaving, he turned around and walked around to the back of the house to the sliding door, and knocked on the door and waited.
When Jack pulled back the curtain, he was shocked to see who was there, so he opened up the sliding door.
"Jon, what are you doing here?"
"We need to talk, outside." Jack followed Jon outside and to the rear of the ship.
"Jon?"
"Follow me!" then Jack followed him into the ship.
"Woo, what is this?"
"It's an ancient time ship."
"Cool!"
"Jack, I'm from the future!"
"What! Are you nuts?" Jon sat down and looked at Jack.
"I'm here to change the past… Sam's past." Jack looked at his younger self then sat down across from him.
"Something happens to Carter?"
"Yeah! She told you that she going to see her brother for few days?"
"Yes, she hasn't seen him and the family in a while. Why? What going on?"
"Mark sets Sam up with a friend."
"So?"
"His name is Pete Shanahan."
"So, she gets a life." Jon shook his head.
"Jack, he's working for the trust." jack was shocked.
"You better tell me everything!"
"No, but I'm going to do what I can to stop them from meeting each other."
"Does he do something to Carter?"
"Yes"
"Ok, you do what you need to do. You know where I am if you need me."
"Sure." He stood up and looked down at Jon.
"Why are you doing this?"
"Shanahan was her second choice since she couldn't be with the one she loved." Jack knew he was talking about him and knew they couldn't be together.
"Tell me this. If Carter and I do get together, when will be the best time?"
"When you have the second download."
"You mean I get my head sucked again?"
"Yes again, that is the best time and we both know the perfect ring."
"Mums engagement ring."
"Yes!"
"Ok, thanks for the heads up."
"No worries, I better go, I've got things to do."
"Sure." Then Jack walked off the ship and back to his house. He could hear a humming noise then it was gone.
He walked back inside and closed and locked the door. He turned off the lights before going down to his bedroom. When he walked in, he turned on the lights and walked over to his bed ide cabinet and opened the bottom draw, moved some things around and pulled out a blue box and opened it.
The round, 2.1ct-peridot, centre stone was set into a square basket and was held by chunky prongs. On either side, two more .13ct round stones were set in marquise shaped stations followed by two small round .13ct diamonds. A small ribbed accent completed the look.
He know that Jon was right and that Sam would love the ring. He closed the box and put it back, then he did his nightly routines before going to bed.
When Jon left Jack's place, he flew to Denver. When he got there, he went to Pete's house since he had his address. He had worked out what time his flight was to San Diego, so he waited till the time was right.
When a taxi showed up and tooted its horn, Jon got a home-made gun that shoots nails out, loaded it with a nail, opened the back door and moved till he was in front of the taxi and he waited.
When Pete walked out with bag in hand, he got into the taxi, then it started to leave. Jon aimed for the front tyre and shot it. They heard a bang and the taxi stopped. The driver got out and looked at the front tyre, Jon heard him say,
"Sorry sir, I'll quickly change the tyre."
"Ok, I don't want to miss my flight."
"Yes sir!"
The driver quickly changed the tyre. Once he finished, Jon closed the door and moved the ship out of the way. Then he followed the taxi to the traffic lights. He used a device that he had with him to make sure the lights stayed red for a minute longer before changing. Jon did that all the way to the airport.
By the time Pete got there! he had missed his flight, so he went in to see when the next available flight was.
"Hello, can I help you sir?"
"Yes, I missed my flight to San Diego, when is the next available flight to there?"
"I'll just check for you sir," then the women clicked away on the keyboard.
"The next avaiablel flight to San Diego is next week. All the other flights are fully booked." Pete wasn't happy about the news.
"Thanks, it would be too late then."
She smiled at him as he picked up his bag and turned around and walked out of the airport flicking open his phone.
"Hello!"
"Hi Mark, it's Pete."
"Hi Pete, what's wrong?"
"I missed my flight; sorry I won't be able to make it this weekend."
"What about another flight?"
"There fully booked till next week."
"Ok, well Sam is here… hey, why don't I give you her home phone number and when she returns back to Colorado you can give her a call."
"Sure, sounds good to me," he said smiling.
Mark gave Pete Sam's phone number and they talked for a minute before hanging up. Then he got into a taxi and headed home. On the way he made a phone call.
"Hi, it's Pete Shanahan… I missed the flight, the taxi got flat tyres… don't worry, Mark gave me her number, and I'll be giving her a call when she returns… I know what's at stake… I won't, I'll sweet charm her… I'll keep you up to date." Then he hung up and sat back looking out the window.
Jon followed the taxi till it reached back to Pete's house. Then he flew he ship forward to eight days later where he followed Pete and made recordings of every time he called the trust.
When Jon found out that Pete was going to the Springs for a case, he decided to call Sam up for a date. After finding out where she lived, all Jon had to do was wait.
When Pete was in the Springs, he called Sam up and talked with her and then he asked her out for dinner, which she accepted. When Jon found out what time he was picking her up, all he could do was think of a plan and wait.
When Pete was due to pick up Sam, Jon went to a phone booth and called Sam.
"Carter"
"Major Carter"
"Yes, who is this?"
"Listen to me, you must not trust Detective Shanahan!"
"Who is this?" Sam was puzzled.
"Is this a joke?"
"Major Carter, Detective Shanahan works for the trust, be careful, he knows about the SGC," then he hung up.
He walked back to the ship and looked around before getting in. Then he left to go back to Sam's place and wait.
