"So how did your meeting go?" Jack asked Sam as they sat at the table waiting for Daniel to find his way out of his office and Teal'c to finish loading up his tray. Jack had already got Daniel some food knowing how the archaeologist was when it came to work.
"Fine, thank you."
"How did the wallpaper theory go?" Jack asked.
"We're sending a probe at 1600." Sam replied.
"So that's where we're going on Monday?" Jack inquired.
"No. Do you remember that planet I told you about last week? The one I wanted to go to do some more intensive tests?"
"The one that was too calm that we're bound to run into the Goa'uld?"
"Yes sir. We're shipping out on Monday, I'll have the report you need to read before the briefing ready by the end of the day tomorrow."
"So you'll be out of here at a reasonable time so you can get a good night's sleep before the wedding?"
"Yes sir."
"So what's this about visual evidence?" Jack asked as he took a mouthful of his food.
"Teal'c told Janet and Daniel he was coming to talk to you and why, so they bribed the guy up in security to leave so they could monitor your office to see your reaction. Janet gave me the tape this morning."
"Security let them spy on me?" Jack asked suspiciously.
"Yes sir." Sam replied.
"So what did I miss?" Daniel said as he came to join them.
"I was just telling the Colonel about the results of our meeting with General Hammond." Sam replied.
"And I just discovered that I need to talk to Hammond about a lapse in security by a Doctor and an archaeologist." Jack said crossing his arms.
"Jack, look neither of you were telling us anything and when Teal'c mention what he was going to ask we just wanted to see your reaction." Daniel tried to explain.
"Daniel, if you want to know something it's easier to ask than spy on people. Especially when you work in a highly classified environment like this." Sam pointed out. Teal'c joined them.
"So it there anything going on between you that you'd like to tell us about?" Daniel asked.
"Daniel, you should know by now that everything in the military works on a need to know basis. At this point anything that may or may not be happening doesn't affect you so you don't need to know. Right Carter?" Jack said.
"Yes sir." Sam replied.
"So you'll tell us if and when we need to know?" Daniel asked.
"Boy, he finally gets it." Jack said sarcastically.
"Colonel." Sam scolded.
"Sorry Danny, I'm stressed out that I have to go to Sara's wedding and see all her relatives again." Jack apologised.
"It's okay Jack."
"Colonel, Sara's relatives can't be that bad, I really like Sara she a nice person."
"You weren't married to her for twelve years. They never liked me in the first place; I'd rather face a room of Goa'uld. Why do you think I need someone to distract them?"
"If I remember rightly and correct me if I'm wrong sir, you want me to go with you because taking Teal'c would raise too many questions and you thought Daniel would bore them with too much history and that if I avoided science I could make polite conversation. Not to mention the fact that Sara had already invited me." Teal'c raised an eyebrow at him.
"It possible that I said that, so drop the subject and eat."
"Yes sir." Sam said biting her lip to avoid smiling. They were managing to keep everything between them away from work successfully and they weren't going to tell anyone anything.
