A broad spectrum of emotions add color to a normally ordinary day in the Life of Sam and Jack..
Chapter 1: On His Last Multi-colored Marble.
*Sam has a date!*
"Sir?" Carter waved a hand in front of his face.
"I had a date," she re-iterated.
He shook his head and narrowed his eyes at her. "What do you mean, had?" She looked at him as if he had lost his last marble.
"Exactly as I said. Jeff was called away on an unexpected business trip."
"Oh, your blood-sucking lawyer boyfriend," Jack said acerbically, resuming his walk down the halls of the SGC.
"He is not blood-sucking," she said defensively, quickening her steps to keep up with him.
"How long has he been going out with you now? And he is already dumping you?" *The more brutal I am, the easier it is for me to keep my feelings at bay.*
"He is not dumping me and he is not my boyfriend," she corrected. Dejected, Carter hung her head. "We decided a few days ago that it just wasn't working out. We are just friends. But he purchased these tickets three weeks ago, and neither one of us wanted to let them go to waste," she trailed off. Jack stopped walking and turned to face Carter.
"Have you asked Daniel?" he asked, more gently this time.
Sam nodded. "I already did, but he and Janet are attending the annual archeology convention tonight."
"Ah, the annual convention of rock studying. Sweet."
Turning away, Sam replied frostily, "Sarcasm will not get you everywhere Colonel."
Ruefully, Jack grabbed her arm and forced her to face him. "What time do you want me to pick you up?"
