On the way, Dr Fleming asks a lot of different questions, which both Daniel and Sam answer. They stop long enough to get something to eat. A shocked Dr Fleming was watching Jack and Sam load up their tray with their new normal amount of food. After they walk over to one of the tables and sat down, Teal'c joined the a few minutes later.
"Where do you put it all?" he asked
"In here" Jack said patting his stomach
"I mean, don't you worry about your weight?"
"Nope, we work out every day like today"
"Ok" they talk among themselves as well answer Dr Fleming questions. Two hours later Daniel shows Dr Fleming the VIP room.
"Dr Jackson can I ask you a personal question"
"Depends on what the question is"
"Is there something going on between Colonel O'Neill and Major Carter?" Daniel smile
"Yes, there is, they are married"
"But isn't that against the Air Force rules?"
"Yes, it is, but Jack retired so he could find out the real reason why General Hammond retired and found out that the NID was black mailing him and threaten not just him but his family"
"Oh my god, so what happened?"
"Do you know Colonel Harry Mayborne?"
"Yes"
"He helps Jack get the information that was needed to get Hammond back and at the same time Jack and Sam got together and decided to get married before Jack and General Hammond return back to the SGC"
"Good timing then."
"Yes, it was, and they are both happy"
"That's good to know"
"Good night, if you need anything, there will be SF outside"
"Thanks, good night Dr Jackson" He open the door and walks in and closing it behind him.
Daniel walked down to his own quarters for the night. Jack and Sam both had a shower together, making love before going to bed themselves and making love again before falling asleep in one another arms. The next morning SG1 and Dr Fleming were called to the briefing room where General Hammond is.
"Sir, what's wrong?"
"The team I sent yesterday arrived at the same time you five showed up down in the gate room, they have arrested over eight hundred people there, most of them didn't know what was going on when they woke up"
"Woke up?" Sam asked
"Yes, some of them there were victims and didn't know what was going on"
"What the cover story sir?"
"Virus that was in their water supply, they were given a supplemental injection to help them beat the virus and they have been given fresh water until their water supply is given the okay, so everyone thinks it's will kill the virus"
"Ah, great idea, so we pissed off the NID again, sir" Hammond smile
"Yes, you have"
"Well I hope they learn their lesson, sir."
"We both know what they are like"
"Yes, I do, so what can we do now?"
"SG1, you've got a three day stand down, so you go home"
"Thanks, sir"
Hammond looks at Fleming, "Dr Fleming, since your life is in danger, you will be staying here for now."
"Thank you, what about my home?"
"That's been taken care of and someone will be here this afternoon with your clothes."
"Thank you"
"Any questions?" they shook their heads no.
"Ok dismissed," they make their way out of the room.
Daniel and Teal'c show Dr Fleming around while Jack and Sam got changed and head to the surface. They head into town to do some necessary shopping. They stop to check on their new house. As promised it was already paid for, for which they were both happy. They went over the artwork after they went back to Jack place, so they could pick up one of the designs that they like.
They take the design to show the architect what they would like done and find out how much it was going to cost. After Jack paid for the deposit, they both left happily. They decide to celebrate back at his house in private or, so they thought.
"Hello Harry"
"Jack, Major Carter" Sam closes and locks the door, following Jack into the living room
"What is that you want this time?"
"To give you this" he passes an envelope, Jack opened it and pulls out the deed to the house.
"I keep my promises; the house is now yours."
"Thanks."
"I heard this morning about what happened over at Steveston"
"Oh, what did you hear?"
"Clone symboites, you really pissed them off, Jack, for what I have found out, they been working on the cloning for over a year and SG1 comes along and within hours it's all gone."
"Well we are always pissing someone or something off"
"True, good news is I've started to narrow down the leader, running the trust. It's down to six names"
"That good, anything else?"
"Nope, is there anything I can do for you?"
"Well we are getting the house extended, here is how much it going to cost" Jack passes him the papers to look at and he nodded.
"I'll take care of it for you if you can take care of these guys, they are part of the trust" he passes pen drive and list of names.
"Do this for me and I'll take care of the payments"
"You will know that it is us"
"I know, take care" the Harry walks out the back door and is gone.
Jack closes and locks the door, before turning around to see Sam is not in the living room, so he walks down the hallway to look for her, when he finds her, he smiles seeing her naked on his bed.
"Someone is overdressed," she opens her legs for him and she licks her lips, as she was doing that he strips off his clothes and was on top of her, kissing her.
"Sam you are naughty and I'm going to punish you."
He gives her a kiss and they make love with his teasing her before and afterwards, they make passionate love all afternoon. Only with stomach growling do they get up for something to eat. Once they were full, they return to bed to watch some TV, before falling asleep neither wanting to let go.
The next day Sam was at her place to check out what was on the pen drive that Harry had given them. She read each guy's profile and who they were connected to, along with photos. She called Daniel and asked him to see what he can find out about each of the five men.
When finished talking on the phone, she made copies of the information and e-mailed them to the chief of staff and Major Davis with a note to them both about connections to 'the trust'. Just as she finishes sending the information, Jack walks through the front door with lunch in his hands.
"I got us some lunch, so come and get it"
"Ok, thanks"
She shut down her computer got up and walks over to her living room and sits on the couch and picks up one of the Chinese boxes and chopsticks and started eating the noddles.
"Anything interesting on the pen drive?"
"Yeah the five guys, I read about their background and what Mayborne was able to put together, the connection everything"
"And?" when he bit into an eggroll.
"They got ties with Kinsey and four others that you know of from the list of guys you visited."
"Really"
"Yep" she put the box down and picks up another one that held sweet and sour chicken.
"Anything on the building we visited a couple of days ago?"
"Yes, two of them are partners that own the building with another man name Adrian Conrad"
"Ok, what about this guy, Conrad?"
"He's a millionaire and very ill, he's got an incurable disease, like Dad he would need a symboite"
"Ok, one thing that's been bugging me is these clone symboites, they would need a real live one to do these cloning"
"Mayborne, sold a symboite to Adrian Conrad when he had the second stargate, from what I read, Mayborne sold it for ten million dollars"
"Why that stinking low life, next time I see him, I'll shoot him" Jack was getting angry and as Sam knew he would.
"Jack, please calm down" she puts down the box and chopsticks and turns and puts her hands on both of his arms and looks into his brown eyes knowing that every time he looks into her blue eyes, it helps to calm him down.
"Mayborne left a note stating that he was told was that Conrad was going to use it for scientific purpures for curing the disease that he has. That's what Mayborne was told and he said that he taped the phone conversations and videotaped the meetings as proof of what he was being told."
"He should have known something wasn't right"
"Well, all he was thinking about at the time was the money."
"Well that is true, was there anything else?"
"Nope, not now. I've contact Daniel to do some digging for me since he's still on the base."
"Well at least it's nothing old, he is digging for this time."
Sam smiles at Jack and puts one of her hands to his face and leans forward and gives him a kiss. "Don't worry we will get them all"
"I know between the goa'uld, replicators and the trust, we sure are going to be very busy"
"I know, one thing at a time"
"True" he gives her a kiss and they talk about the house while finishing their lunch. After wards they went for a walk to where the park is and sat down watching some kids play.
"Jack, have you ever thought of us having kids?"
He turns to look at her, "After Charlie was born Sara and I were so happy. When Charlie turned three, I asked Sara about trying for another child. She told me that she didn't want any more kids"
"Jack, I'm sorry, I didn't know" she held onto his hand and gave it a squeeze
"Like a lot of things, you don't know about me Sam"
"And there are lots of things, I do know and love about you, and one of them is that you love me, just like I love you" she puts up her hand and cups his face while looking into his eyes.
"Do you want to have a child" she asks him.
"I don't know, Sam, after what happened."
"That was an accident Jack, you been telling him not to touch or play with your gun."
"I know, but…"
"No buts, Jack, you know you been given second chances over the past few years for different things, so why not add one more to the second chance list"
"Second chances?"
She smiles and him and held onto both of his hands. "Yes, second chance to live, love, friends, workmates, saving lives, being happy, cheeky, exploring, being kick ass, pissing someone or something off, and many more on your list, do you want to add one more to your list"
Jack knew what she was talking about everyone from the SGC, his team, allies, enemy's and family. He knew she was right about having second chances at everything. Since that first Abydos mission, since meeting Catherine, Daniel and Skar'ra, it was those three special people and the stargate that have just changed his life but also was given him a second chance of living.
But he knew that only one person had captured his heart the day she walk-into the briefing room, correcting him on her gender. It was her voice that got his attention and then her eyes. Her smile that melted the ice around his heart. The way she stood up for herself. He knew of his years of training, went out the door when she walked in that morning.
Ever since the morning of their meeting, things had changed for the better, not just for him, but for her also. The way they been there for one another. Not just Captain and Colonel but for Jack and Sam. They both had gotten to know one another, over the past four years and now. They have the opportunity that they had been waiting for and now she is sitting next to him as his wife asking him about another second chance, that of having a child.
"Sam, do you want to have a baby."
"Only if you want to as well, Jack."
"As I said, I don't know."
"Hey if we do, we can work it out together."
"I know, but this war"
"Won't last for ever Jack, both you and I know that, look at what we have accomplished in the last four years. More than the Asgard and Tok'ra have in the last four hundred years"
"Well that is true. Sam, if we do have a child of our own, I'll be scared that it might happened again, I don't think I could live through that again."
"Jack if we do have a child, how many would you like to have?"
"Hockey team!" he said smiling
"Jack" she shakes her head, smiling.
"I don't know, how many would you like to have Sam?"
"Well if you are willing, why don't we try for first child and see what happens from there, ok?"
"Well we better get back to your place and start working on the first one then" he flicks his eyebrows at her, which made her smile.
"Well what are you waiting for" they kiss before getting up and walking back to Sam's place with their arms around each other. They spent the rest of the afternoon in bed making love.
