I'll admit, I'm not a huge fan of song fics. I usually skim over the lyrics, especially if I'm not familiar with the song. But this one has been stuck in my head for days! I suggest you youtube the music video! It's so fitting! This chapter is hot so you might want a bucket of ice water around to cool you off! Enjoy!
Jack hopped into his truck and tried to make it home safely. His mind was running all over the place and it would be a pretty bad idea to get into an accident over it. He came to a red light and patiently waited. The song on the radio annoyed him so he changed the channel. Another one was starting and he recognized it immediately. "Good 'ole Vince and Reba."
Looking back over the years
Of All the things I've always meant to say
But words didn't come easily
So many times through empty fears
Of all the nights I tried to pick up the phone
So scared of who might be answering
You try to live your life from day to day
But seeing you across the room tonight
Just gives me away
'Cause the heart won't lie
Sometimes life gets in the way
But there's one thing that won't change
I know I've tried
The heart won't lie
You can live your alibi
Who can see you're lost inside a foolish disguise
The heart won't lie
'Wow,' Jack thought, 'this is so perfect for us.'
Long after tonight
Will you still hear my voice through the radio
Old desires make us act carelessly
Long after tonight, after the fire
After the scattered ashes fly
Through the four winds blown and gone
Will you come back to me?
You try to live your life from day to day
But seeing you across the room tonight
Just gives me away
'Cause the heart won't lie
Sometimes life gets in the way
But there's one thing that won't change
I know I've tried
The heart won't lie
You can live your alibi
Who can see you're lost inside a foolish disguise
The heart won't lie
Jack couldn't believe how perfectly this song fit into their lives. 'I have been living in a foolish disguise. It's time to take a chance.'
A car behind him honked its horn and brought Jack out of his trance. Thankfully he made it all the way home without any more problems.
After picking at his left over take out, he gave up and turned on a hockey game. Hockey has always been good therapy for him and since he left Edora he couldn't get enough of it. Jack has thought about Laira so many times since coming home. He knew it was time to figure it out once and for all. 'I want to be with Carter,' he thought, 'but what about Laira? Do I just ignore what we had?'
Jack cared about Laira, but he knew he didn't love her. Not the way he loved Carter. But Jack had lived behind the military's rules. With Laira he had no rules and it felt good; like a long vacation. Now, it was time to let Laira go.
He turned off the tv after noticing he couldn't remember the last 10 minutes of the game and went to bed.
"Colonel?" Sam was still bleary-eyed when she opened her front door and saw Jack standing there with a bunch of things in his arms.
"Uh, good morning, Carter." He rocked on his heels. "Can we talk?"
"I don't think that's such a good idea right now."
"Please, I think it's important."
Sam hesitated, weighing her options. Wordlessly she opened the door all the way and allowed him to enter.
Jack finally got a full view of her in her pajamas. She had on some baggy bottoms that were borderline see-through and a tank top that stretched across her breasts. He immediately felt attracted to her. Pushing the creeping thoughts aside he walked straight to her kitchen. "I brought breakfast!"
"Good, I'm starving!"
"It's nothing special, but I know you'll love it! Some fruit salad, pancakes, and…" he held up a little container.
"Blue jell-o?"
"I knew I would win you over."
Sam smiled. It totally melted Jack's heart. He promptly handed Sam her jell-o and a spoon and she dug right in while he warmed up the pre-made pancakes.
"Wow! This is delicious! I'm going to have to make sure I keep my fridge fully stocked of this stuff!"
"I could help with that."
Sam looked at him cautiously. 'What's he getting at?'
As they ate through the stack of pancakes Sam noticed Jack was staring at her.
"What?" she asked.
"You're so beautiful." He said it as though he'd said it to her a million times.
"Excuse me? I just woke up."
Jack stood and pulled Sam up to him. "I've never seen you look so beautiful," he said quietly. Sam's mouth dropped in surprise and Jack seized the opportunity to pull her closer and kiss her. She pulled back in utter shock but he wouldn't release her. "Sam, I need you." His voice had dropped and it sounded heavenly to her. When she didn't move back anymore he kissed her again. This time he turned his head more and intensified the kiss. Sam welcomed the feel of his lips on hers. She parted them slightly and Jack took possession of her upper lip. She focused on the warmth of his bottom lip. It was so smooth and soft she couldn't help let out a little moan. Until that moment their breathing was easy and slow but when Jack's hands went from around her back to cup her face they both began to breathe heavily. He tilted her head for better access, his nose no longer threatening her eye. Once again, Sam released a moan and opened her mouth more. Jack didn't hesitate to invade her mouth completely. She tasted of pancake syrup and it made the experience all that more euphoric. Their tongues danced together exploring their new territories.
When Sam started to feel breathless she grudgingly withdrew. She brought her hands up and entangled herself in his hair. They stood there with their foreheads pressed together and slowly caught their breath, panting slightly. "Sir."
"I think you can call me Jack now." They smiled and shared a small kiss. He started with gentle kisses on her forehead and slowly moved down the side of her face. He engulfed the scent of her strawberry shampoo and it made his knees weaken. "Sam, I'm lost without you." He crept down to her neck brushing his thumb across her exposed collarbone. "Tell me what to do."
Sam could feel his desire searing through her. "Put me back to bed, Jack." He returned his lips to her mouth and his strength was restored. He gripped her under her thighs and swiftly picked her up. She held on to his shoulders and kept her lips joined with his. He was able to make it to her bedroom without bumping into too many walls and they collapsed onto her bed. The morning light flooded the room eliminating them in golden sunshine.
They lay on their sides and Jack's hand skimmed the bare flesh of her arm. Goose bumps appeared and she released a little giggle. He stopped kissing her long enough to say, "no giggling, Carter."
"Oh, it's Carter, now is it?"
Jack growled. "You know what I mean." He kissed her again and moved his hand to her hip slowly pushing her tank top up. The feel of her soft skin caused his heart to explode into a million pieces. His arousal became even more apparent and Sam wrapped her leg around his hip to allow him better contact. Her thin pajama bottoms were no match for his desire. He shifted his hips slightly and his hard dick rubbed her in just the right spot.
"Mmm."
"Sam, you're making this really difficult for me."
"And how am I doing that?" she asked teasingly.
"Because I want to take this slowly. Very slowly. But you're making it impossible."
"You want foreplay?"
"I just want you," he said hungrily. He abandoned her mouth and kissed a line from her chin down to the hollow of her throat. He stayed there for a while enjoying the feel of it. Jack's hand crawled up her body and pulled her shoulder into him. When he'd had his fill of her neck he slowly went further down stopping where her chest started to amplify. Jack paused momentarily to look at Sam for the ok. When she smiled he returned his attention to her creamy flesh. His hand pulled at the little string of her tank top and yanked it down her arm exposing her breast almost completely. Jack gulped. He knew, they both knew, there would be no turning back, now. He dived into her flesh and used his hands to assist his indulgence. Finally he pulled her top down enough to make her hardened nipple pop out from underneath. He wrapped his lips around it and started sucking on it slowly. Sam arched her back into the sensation. He began to gently flick his tongue across the peak. She whimpered at the feeling.
Sam couldn't take it any more and sat up abruptly. Jack was a little worried, but she quickly removed her top completely. "That's better." She lay back down and they both adjusted their positions. Sam was now on her back and he continued on her other breast. She ran her hands through his hair encouraging him to keep going.
Jack traveled to the valley of her chest barely touching the surface. He moved further down her body relishing her firm stomach. He mentally thanked the military for keeping her body just like this. Her pajama bottoms were low across her hips and Jack kept his attention on her skin while softly rubbing between her legs. The fabric was so thin he could feel all her folds. "Jack," she gasped. He sat up and pulled her bottoms and underwear off at the same time. Jack got his first full view of his 2IC in the buff. He drank in the sight before him. Sam let him have his moment, but didn't wait too long before disrobing him as well. She enjoyed looking at her own eye candy.
They returned to the bed and he kept her on her back. Their lips met once again and they spent a few minutes letting their hands wander around the naked flesh. "I love the way you feel," Jack said.
"Me, too," she whispered back.
Jack's hand slid down her body and stopped at her knee. He shifted his body and his lips went to her knee, too. He traced a line very slowly from her knee up to the top of her leg with the slightest touch of his fingers. His lips followed the line he traced stopping just short of her hip. She whimpered again and Jack smiled. Knowing he couldn't tease her forever he touched her where she really wanted it. He slid his fingers up and down her wet flesh and he could smell her arousal rising. Jack used his moistened fingers to tease her clit. She trembled at his touch.
One last time he kissed her inner thigh and turned his attention to her wet center. He placed one finger at her opening, waiting for her to respond. She rolled her hips slightly inviting him in. Jack happily obliged. He dipped one finger into her warmth. Sam released the breath she had been holding and clenched her core instead. He felt her muscles wrap around his finger and he curled it slightly pulling out once, twice. The third time he dipped a second finger and Sam nearly liquefied. Jack continued to pleasure her until he couldn't wait another second to taste her. He pulled his fingers out and brought his mouth to her center. They both moaned at the same time. Jack grasped her hip to hold her in place as he enjoyed her. She tried to squirm and buck but Jack was stronger. It only made her arousal heighten. He used his free hand to continue penetrating her and teased her clit with his tongue until he felt her tense and she groaned as she came. Jack waited until she calmed down and he softly drank her goodness.
"That was amazing!" she gasped.
"You're amazing!"
"I hope you don't mind if I just lay here while you finish me off completely." She had her eyes closed but a wide smile was across her face.
"I can wait for you to recuperate!" He held himself over her and looked at her. She opened her eyes. They were filled with hunger.
"No, Jack. I want you."
"Works for me!" They smiled. "I can't believe we're doing this."
"It's too late for regrets."
"No regrets, ever again, Sam. I love you."
"I love you," she said. He kissed her. His hips started rocking involuntarily. "Jack," she broke off, "take me." She wrapped her legs around his hips and he adjusted his position to enter her. Again, they moaned together as she felt him dive deep inside. He stopped once he was all the way in enjoying the sensations coursing through his body. Slowly he withdrew and went back in. Sam raised her hips to match his thrusts. Together they built up speed and Jack knew he was close.
"Sam," he managed to say.
"Jack!" she moaned.
"No, Sam! I'm…"
"Don't stop, Jack!"
"Sam!" he yelled as a powerful release flooded him. He collapsed next to her, both of their hearts pounding. Once they were off their high they curled into each other's arms and fell asleep easily.
