Sam was standing on the ramp to be transported to the Midway station. She had said her goodbyes to her friends… her family at the SGC. She had packed everything including a picture of Jack O'Neill. Even though he had hurt her deeply, he was still too big a part of her life to just dismiss.

She smiled as she walked towards the engaged wormhole. A new, wonderful chapter of her life was about to begin.

-o-o-o-

Jack was alone in his cabin, on the day that Sam was leaving for Atlantis. He finally opened the letter that she had sent him when she sent him back the ring.

Dear Jack,

I forgive you.

I forgive you for hurting me.

I forgive you for lying to me.

I know why you pushed me away, and I think what hurts the most is that you felt that you weren't worth me staying for. You are. You were. But no matter how I try to explain that to you, no matter how hard I try to make you see that you do deserve happiness in this life, you just can't. I guess there is no such thing as happily ever after.

I am sorry I failed you.

With all my love,

Sam


A/N: There you have it.
