Jack raises his hand to knock on the door but it opens before he has a chance. Inside Sam is standing with a smile and little else.
"Good morning," she says, her voice warm.
His eyes wander up and down her body taking in the sight of her. The long black sheer robe she has donned is tied just under her breasts, the soft black lace leaving little to the imagination. His gaze travels down her toned stomach to the small triangle of fabric that comes to a point at the junction of her thighs and he finds himself getting hard.
"Wow," he says stepping into the house and closing the door.
"So I take you like it?" she asks.
"I think I'd like it better on the floor," he says as he wraps his arms around Sam and leans in for a kiss.
She returns his kiss and he feels her start moving back slowly. Without letting go he moves back with her. She finally breaks the kiss and looks into his eyes.
"How long do we have?" she asks, gently removing his uniform jacket and starts undoing the buttons on his shirt.
"Long enough for this," he says as he nuzzles his way from her jawline down her neck to her collarbone.
"Then let's do it right," she says softly in his ear.
He lets her lead him to her bed. She slides her hands over his shoulders, pushing his shirt down his arms and letting it fall to the floor. Slowly she runs her hands down his chest, her touch setting his skin on fire. He sucks in a sharp breath as her hands move to the bulge in his pants. Her gaze travels to his face and she gives him a sultry smile as she grabs the belt. She removes it slowly, sliding it out of the belt loops one at a time until its free then she drops it on the floor with his shirt and hooks her fingers in two of the loops and pulls him back with her to the edge of the bed. She moves onto the bed and pulls his on top of her. He settles on top of her then leans down to kiss her again briefly before lifting his head and looking at her.
"Sam..."
She smiles, "I know."
OoOoOoOoOoOoO
Jack pulls his pants up and fastens them before grabbing his belt and putting it in place. When he looks up Sam is pulling a new shirt from her wardrobe for him.
"Just so you know, I actually meant to talk to you this morning before I got sidetracked."
She smiles, "Good to know I can sidetrack you so well. So what's on your mind?"
"Things are going to be different now."
"I know."
"I guess I was wondering if you had changed your mind about requesting a transfer."
"I haven't made up my mind one way or the other as of yet, why?"
Jack takes a breath as he gatherers his thoughts, "Because I am only taking this job temporarily."
"Jack..."
"I've given this a lot of thought and given certain recent events I think it's in Teddy's best interest if I find someone to take over command of the base ASAP. He hasn't even come to terms with losing his mother yet and I don't want to put him in a position to lose the only parent he has left."
"So, Teddy is the only reason you're doing this?"
"Officially."
"And unofficially?"
Jack steps toward her and gently lifts her chin with his hand until she is looking up at him, "You know I have other reasons. Much more selfish ones."
Sam relaxes, "So how do you see this playing out?"
"I'm headed to DC to accept the promotion and once I get back I'll start looking for a replacement. In the mean time I also have to think about finding a 2IC and new leader for SG1. I have a few ideas on people I just need to work out the details."
"And what happens until you find someone to take over the team? Daniel, Teal'c and I just put everything on hold?
"If you would like that better but no. Hammond received a request for you to work on a project in Area 51 but it would be temporary, only until the project is finished. If you accept it, Daniel and Teal'c would be temporarily assigned to another team."
"So for the time being there is no more SG1."
"Only if you go to Area 51. Do you trust me?"
Sam gives him a small smile, "With my life."
"Then trust me when I say that I am going to do everything my power to make this work."
OoOoOoOoOoOoO
Jack grabs his bag off the carousel and heads outside. As he steps to the curb a black Lincoln pulls up and the driver jumps out. Jack watches him move around the car and open the back door.
"Please get in Sir," The man says, holding the door open and gesturing for Jack to enter.
Jack slides into the back seat and he shakes his head when he sees Kinsey sitting next to him with a file on his lap.
"You know, when I found out that you were going to be replacing Hammond in the SGC I must admit I had to question whether or not that was a smart move."
"Good to see you too," Jack says sarcastically as the driver shuts the door and heads back around to the front of the car.
"I think we need to get something strait here. You may be in charge of the base but I'm in charge of you. I control every move you make and the sooner you understand that the better things will be for you."
Jack smiles, "Let me be clear, the day I take my orders from you will be the day hell freezes over."
"I promise you don't want to make an enemy of me General," Kinsey says, emphasizing the last word.
"As far as I'm concerned you are already are my enemy and I took an oath to defend against enemies both foreign and domestic. Now if you wouldn't mind dropping me off at the White House, I have an appointment."
"You'll regret this," Kinsey says angrily.
"Not as much as I would if I listened to you."
AN: I thought I'd give you an update to enjoy over the weekend. Hope you have a great couple of days and I'll see you next week ;)
