He fought the urge to eject from the situation, his head screaming for him to regain control for both their sakes, but this time his heart won the battle. He needed Sam as much as she needed him.

Wordlessly Jack pulled Sam towards him on the sofa and within a second claimed her lips with a soft but passionate kiss. He hooked one arm around her waist and the other at the back of her head, she returned the gesture by cupping his face with both her hands and shifting her body closer to him. Pure almost desperate need was coursing through them.

Jack broke their kiss 'Sam, i...' he hesitated

'Jack, please... i know that this is wrong for so many reasons, the Air Force, the regs, SG-1, but i don't care anymore. It was too close this time...' She dropped her hands down to his chest. 'I just need to know how it feels to be loved by you, even if all i have is one night'

He didn't reply immediately, there was no denying that they were both on the same page. 'You're sure about this?' He asked gently.

'I'm sure' she moved closer to him again kissing the corner of his mouth whilst looking up through her eyelashes. In that moment his last thread of resolve snapped... there would be no going back.

Jack stood from his position on the sofa and pulled Sam to her feet, he wrapped his arms around her and kissed the top of her forehead holding her still 'There's no pressure here Sam, we can stop this at anytime' he murmured into her hair. He felt her nod against his chest.

Taking her hand he led her through the house to the master bedroom, releasing her momentarily he kicked off his shoes and pulled the sweatshirt he had been wearing over his head leaving a tight black T-shirt and tan cargo pants.

'C'mere' he reached out for her.

Sam stepped into his arms again and relaxed into his kiss as he manoeuvred them across the room to his bed. He nudged her gently as the backs of her legs contacted the edge of the bed, she sat back and shifted into the middle as he followed maintaining almost total contact and continuing their kiss.

Jack broke away again, stopping to take stock of where he was... his body was flush against Sam's he could hardly believe this beautiful woman was in his bed.

Sam smiled as though she could hear the thoughts running through his mind... 'Jack?'

Pulled back to reality by her voice, Jack grinned and sat back on his knees pulling the t-shirt over his head and the belt from his trousers.
