A/N this is an extended version of the road trip in chapter eight of my story falling in love over and over again. Just something I've been toying with for a while and really wanted to try, hope you all enjoy. Please give me happy reviews. :D
Cam laughed boisterously as he drove along the winding road, he and his team were on holidays, and cam had told them that they had gladly agreed to colonel jack O'Neill's invite to his cabin for the week vacation.
Apparently there was a nice little lake there, where the trout grew 5ft long, although in all the time Sam, Teal'c's and Daniel have spent there, they'd never seen a single fish, 5ft or otherwise.
Cam spent several hours bribing Daniel not to go to the city of Atlantis for his holidays… Vala was of course easier. since she was a wanted felon on every second planet across the milky way besides she would follow Daniel wherever he went. Convincing her was easy once she was informed that Daniel had agreed.
Teal'c had planned to go to dekara for the holidays, but the Jaffa high council seemed to be settling slowly, and a promised large box of doughnuts sufficed in persuading him for his company.
Sam was planning on refining the gate bridge between the milky way and the Pegasus galaxy, with dr. Rodney MacKay, but with extra hard work it was completed before the holidays, so she also agreed to come, she was of course happier to spend her time with the team, and jack as opposed to Rodney.
Of course cam had always worshipped SG1, and still couldn't believe he now lead the team. And although he enjoyed it, it never really felt the same without jack. And so when he invited the entire team up for the holidays, cam refused to take a single no from any of them, no matter the excuse.
He had practically ordered their buts into the car, and after much protest they complied and only now they were on the road he could relax.
'Cameron, I need the ladies room' Vala whined
'Vala' all four of the team mates yelled at once, with the exception of Daniel who simply looked irritable at her.
'What, I'm sorry' she smiled defensively.
'I told you to go before we left' Daniel grunted
'Vala, I took you there myself' Sam interjected 'what could of you possibly been doing all that time.
''oh I fixed my hair' Vala smiled as she picked up a part of her pony tail flicking Daniels shoulder as she smiled across him to Sam.
Sam responded by jabbing Daniels ribs with her elbows.
'Ow!' he complained sounding like a little child.
She chuckled and Daniel leaned as cam turned a corner, crushing her against the door.
'Yay, I see a gas station' Vala exclaimed happily, she practically jumped out of the SUV before it had stopped.
'look at her' cam pointed as they saw Vala leaning flirtatiously across the counter while asking for the rest room keys.\'better keep an eye on your girlfriend Jackson' cam laughed.
'she's not my girlfriend' Daniel grinned blatantly'
'Could have fooled me' Sam giggled.
'Yeah coz you can talk' cam smiled, staring her down in the rear vision mirror.
'Jack' Daniel mouthed rather smugly as Sam's face turned blank.
'Well doesn't look like she's moving anytime soon.' Sam nodded towards Vala.
'Shall I render her assistance?' Teal'c questioned.
'Yes Teal'c you may go and get your doughnuts now' cam nodded
'Can I have some too' Daniel asked
'I did not intend to…' Teal'c began
'Teal'c' the car echoed itself
'I shall return hastily' Teal'c smiled widely.
He climbed out the front seat pulling his hat firmly over his forehead.
The three in the car smiled as they saw Teal'c make quickly for the doughnut box, pay for it and usher Vala along, moments later she returned and resumed her chatting.
Sam snorted as Teal'c pulled Vala along by her jacket; he pushed her back in the seat of the car, closed the door and resumed his position in the front.
'That was very rude Teal'c' she pouted.
'He silenced her by passing her a chocolate doughnut
'Ooh thanks' she grinned, greedily shoving it into her mouth.
Teal'c passed them around as cam began driving, there was little more than half an hour of the journey remaining, but Vala saw to it that it would be the longest and most excruciating half an hour possible.
As she swallowed the last of her doughnut she began.
'Are we there yet?'
'No' Daniel replied
'Are we there yet?'
'Nope' Sam sighed as a smile played on the edge of her lips
'Are we there yet?'
'No Vala we are not there yet' cam noted
'Are we there yet?'
'I believe we shall not arrive for some time' Teal'c stated
'Are we there ye…'
Fed up, each of them taking their turn they yelled 'no Vala!'
'Ok, wake me up when we get there' she sighed as she snuggled into Daniels shoulder.
A few moments later cam caught the reflection of Daniel reading with two sleepy women on either side of him.
'Can I strangle her while she's sleeping?' cam asked as he gestured to Vala.
Daniel chuckled and shrugged his shoulders gently.
They sat in silence the rest of the trip. Daniel read, Teal'c ate and cam hummed quietly to the radio, until he finally broke the silence pulling into the drive way,
Ahh, the infamous fishless filled pond' he chuckled.
Jack was awaiting them; cam rolled the window down as he turned off the engine. 'Hey jack, thanks for the invite'
Teal'c silently held the doughnut box across cams lap, and jack gratefully accepted.
'Welcome' he nodded towards cam, followed by a sarcastic 'thanks' aimed to Teal'c as he discovered the box was empty.
He rested the box on the bonnet and opened sam's door
'Daniel'
'Jack'
'Thorn between two roses' jack grinned impassively, with only a hint of humor
'No jack, its rose between two thorns' Daniel scolded
'Whatever' jack nodded 'hey carter' jack shrugged her awake.
'Sir?' she smiled groggily, almost falling out of the car and into his arms, before quickly re-gathering herself and standing alone.
'No! I didn't steal it!' vala yelled as she jolted awake.
'Okay' jack frowned 'so carter, how's the latest doo-hickey going?'' he asked as they headed towards the cabin leaving the others to unpack.
'Yeah obvious much? Cam grinned wildly as he began to unload.
A/N still a little more to come, next chapter has a little to do with hanging out and a lot to do with one particular square box. I'll try and finish it soon, but my computers being repaired, so it might take a little while. But in the mean time please review.
