He walked back to his quarters to see Teal'c still there.
"Thanks Teal'c." Teal'c stood up.
"You are welcome O'Neill. How is Colonel Carter?"
"Good, she had quintuplets - four boys and a girl."
"That is good news, I shall return to my room."
"Ok, night Teal'c." Then he walked out closing the door behind him.
Jack walked to the kids room and opened the door; they were all still sound asleep. He watched them for a few minutes before closing the door and going to bed himself to get a few hours sleep. A few hours later Grace woke Jack up.
"Daddy, where's Mummy?" Jack opened his eyes and smiled at his daughter.
"Mummy is in the infirmary."
Jack sat up and rubbed his hands over his face and through his hair while looking at his daughter.
"Is something wrong with the babies?"
"No, but since it's time to get up, let's wake your brothers up, shall we?"
"Ok." then she ran back to the room and Jack could hear her
"JJ, George, Jake, wake up, Mummy is in the infirmary." Jack smiled at how Grace woke her brothers up.
"Just like her mother."
He got out of bed and went to relieve himself and wash his hands, then he returned to the bedroom and got dressed. By that time the kids walked out sleepily, so he got them to have a shower and get them dress, by which time they were fully awake.
He took them down to the mess hall for some breakfast, where they met Jacob.
"Granddad!" JJ said, and he ran over to the table.
"Go on, I'll get your breakfast."
They ran over and gave Jacob a hug and they talked to him till Jack showed up with a tray full of food.
"Ok kids, up on your seats, breakfast is here. Hi Dad."
"Jack."
Jack got the kids sorted out and gave them their breakfast, before going to get his own. They talked while enjoying their breakfast.
After breakfast they walked down to the infirmary to see Sam, who was sitting up in bed and had just finished her breakfast. She smiled when she saw her kids running over to the bed.
"Mummy, where are the babies?" Grace asked.
"Well, they will be here soon, so you can meet them all." They all grinned.
Jack helped them up onto the bed so they could give Sam a hug. They talked for ten minutes, before Janet and her staff wheeled the cots into the room.
"Morning Sam."
"Morning Janet, I see the kids are awake and hungry."
"Yes they are, would you two like to help feed these kids?" Janet asked just as a nurse walked in with five baby bottles.
"Sure, but we will need some help"
"Sure, two of my nurses have asked just in case you needed some help… I'll leave you guys to it." Then she walked out the door, leaving them alone.
Jack picked up Catherine and passed her to Sam, then he picked up Chris to give him his feed. Jacob picked up Brian while the two nurses picked up Daniel and Lou. Jack introduced their four kids to their baby brothers and sister. They looked at them and smiled.
They all talked while feeding and burping them. While they were burping them Daniel and Teal'c walked into the room with a big bunch of flowers for Sam, which she thanked them for.
After Daniel and Lou were burped the nurses passed them to Daniel and Teal'c before leaving. They all talked and Daniel took some photos of the babies, everyone holding them.
They were there for an hour before it was time to take the kids to school and day care. They all left so Sam could get some rest before their babies woke up again for their next feed.
Over the next two weeks, while the kids were at school and at the day care centre, SG-1 and Jack left for a couple of hours at the Hot Springs.
Sam set up areas that they should check out to see if there were any more of those spider creatures about. Jack let each team to go to the planet for a couple of hours, which they were grateful for. On the fourth trip Sam checked her third area for footprints, and she saw them - they were small.
"Jack, it seems we didn't get them all." Jack walked over and saw them.
"Babies?"
"It seems so."
"Ok, come on, the hot springs await."
They walked over to the Hot Springs and joined Daniel and Teal'c. Sam told them what she found, so they could be aware of the risk. When they returned to the gate two teams were walking towards them.
"Sir, how was the water?"
"Hot, I want you guys to return before night fall, there are baby spiders about."
"Yes sir." Then they walked to the gate and Sam dialed home.
When they arrived back they went to have their showers and by that time their five young children were awake and hungry so Sam used the breast pump to get as much milk as she could to feed them all.
Sam and the quintuplets were on the base for six weeks before they could return back home, since Sam was on maternity leave. Sam knew that the reunion was in two months time so she went to the gym every day to work out, and also she went swimming while Teal'c looked after her kids for her.
She kept in contact with Harm and Mac, and they sent baby photos to Sam and she sent photos to them and to the family. Once a week she went to the spa to pamper herself, and when Jack gave her a kiss when he got home, he could tell she been to the spa because she was so relaxed and happy.
Over the next two months, Sam was able to get into a routine with the quintuplets. Once every two weeks, Harm, Mac and the twins stayed at Jack and Sam's for the weekend. They showed up on Friday night and returned back home on Sunday night.
On Saturday morning Daniel and Teal'c looked after the kids for a couple of hours while the four parents went to the hot springs. They all talked, laughed, and relaxed, having a great time.
"Sam, you looking forward to the reunion?" Harm asked.
"Yes, you?"
"Yep."
"Every time we show up at the office after being here, we've been getting a lot of good comments like 'which spa do you go to?' or 'did you dye your hair?', things like that."
"That's good to know. Just last weekend George, the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, the president and the ambassadors who know about the program were here. They come once a month with us and they all enjoyed themselves"
"That's good."
"It is, and I've spoken to the president, and it's ok with him that one weekend your friends can come here for a couple of hours to relax."
"Thanks Jack, I'll let them know." Harm said.
They talked for the next two hours before they returned back to Earth, to their kids.
Over the next few days Jack and Sam got everything sorted out before leaving to go to Washington for the reunion. Sam was getting nervous as the reunion was getting closer, but she was able to lose all her baby fat in that time and also was able to get into the dress she was planning to wear to the reunion.
On Friday after Jack and Sam left for the airport (since they were flying to Washington), Jacob got a few days off and it was decided that he would look after the grandkids with their friends' help.
When the plane landed and they got their bags, Jack was holding onto Sam's hand as they walked out of the terminal to a waiting limo, where driver was holding an 'O'Neill' sign in front of him.
"We are the O'Neill's." Jack said, showing his driver's license.
"Mr and Mrs O'Neill, may I take your bags for you?"
"Thanks." Sam said.
They passed their bags to the driver and he put them in the trunk of the limo. Then he opened the door for them, and Sam got in first followed by Jack. Once the door was closed, the driver got in and then they were on their way to 'L'enfant Plaza Hotel' where they were staying and where the reception was being held.
"Jack, what have you got planned for us tonight?"
"You will see Sam, you're going to love it." He said smiling.
"I hope so Jack." They kissed.
"I checked out Tina Ryan's back ground." Jack said.
"Oh, what did you find out?"
"She divorced for the fourth time, found out that her fourth kid to her fourth husband isn't his, it was someone else's."
"Wow, how did the guy know?"
"According to the records, he is 'O' negative and she is 'B' negative. The kid is 'A' positive."
"Wow, no wonder he left her."
"Yeah, and the kid's father is a billionaire so she wouldn't have any problems with child support there."
"Sounds like it. I wonder why she cheated on her husband like that?"
"He was away on a tour of duty."
"Oh?"
"There was no way she was pregnant for ten months."
"Ah. Sounds like she didn't waste any time."
"Sounds like it. Sam, in all the times I was away, did you ever think of sleeping with someone else?"
"Jack, of course not! But I do dream when we're apart." She said, smiling to him.
"Oh, what sort of dreams?"
"What do you think happens on those Friday nights in bed for four hours before falling asleep?"
Jack could see the twinkle in Sam eyes like he does just before they make love, and he smiled back at her, seeing her lick her lips at him knowing what she is doing to him.
"Sam, you are a dangerous woman, you know that?"
"But you still love me."
"Too right I do." Then they kissed and Sam snuggled up to his side till they reached the hotel.
When they did and got out, the driver passed their bags to them before they walked inside the hotel and up to the reception desk.
After Jack filled out the paper work, they got their key to their hotel room and they walked to the elevators and got in. A couple of minutes later they reached their room, and Jack opened it for Sam before following her in and locking the door behind them.
