Psych and Stargate SG-1 crossover
2006
Twenty-five year old Juliet O'Hara was waiting in Lieutenant Colonel Samantha Carter's lab inside of Cheyenne mountain. Juliet had learned when she was younger that she had been adopted and she had known since she was eighteen who her biological mother was, but it wasn't until meeting Chief Vick's daughter that she wanted to actually meet the woman who gave birth to her.
"Sorry to keep you waiting. There was a problem that I had to attend to." Samantha said as she walked into her lab "How can I help you?"
Juliet took a deep breath as she mustered up the courage to say what she wanted to.
"Um...my name is Juliet O'Hara. I think you're my birth mother." Juliet uttered
"Huh? Okay. Not what I expected." Samantha replied
"Twenty-five years ago did you give a baby girl up for adoption?" Juliet asked
Samantha gave a nod, "Yes, I did. I wanted to give her a better life. I was only fourteen. My mom had died two years ago and I had been acting out. Going to parties, drinking and smoking. Then I got pregnant. My baby saved my life, but then when she was born I knew I couldn't keep her. I had to give her to a family who could love and care for her, but I never stopped loving her or thinking about her."
Juliet smiled, "Thank you for what you did for me. I had a good life. And I'm sorry about your mom."
"Thank you. And I'm glad that you had a good life." Samantha added "So is there anything you'd like to know?"
"I just wanted to know where I came from. I wanted to know who my birth father is?" Juliet stated
Samantha took a breath, "That's completely understandable. And I'm so sorry, your birth father…..I never knew who he was."
"That's okay." Juliet assured the older woman
"So where did you go to college?" Samantha asked
Juliet started, "Well actually I entered the police academy at eighteen. I'm a police detective now. Fighting crime on the streets."
Samantha nodded, "That's awesome." She was impressed with who her biological daughter had grown up to be. "So any boyfriends?"
Juliet smiled, "No, but there's this guy I like. He works as a consultant for the Santa Barbara police department. He's psychic. He's kind of crazy, but he always makes me laugh."
"Oh you're in love with that guy." Samantha countered
Juliet got flustered as she blushed, "What? No, I'm not. I like him, but I'm not in love with him. And even if I was, nothing can happen. We work together."
"It's okay. I know all about that sort of forbidden workplace love." Samantha
Juliet furrowed her eyebrows, "Really?"
Samantha nodded, "Oh yeah. I was in love with my superior officer for years, and the feeling was mutual. Thankful he's not my superior officer anymore and we can be together now. We actually are together after seven years of being in love, but not together."
"I don't think I can wait that long." Juliet replied
"Well I'm going to give you some advice that my father gave to me, but I didn't follow it." Samantha said "Follow your heart. Don't wait because of the rules like I did."
"I have a grandfather?" Juliet asked hopefully
Samantha shook her head, "I'm so sorry. He died last year."
"Oh. I'm sorry." Juliet apologized
"Me too." Samantha agreed
Juliet was surprised by how much she had in common with her biological mother. She and Samantha talked for hours and hours, but then a Lieutenant Colonel Cameron Mitchell stepped into the room to tell Samantha that they were briefing for a new mission in five minutes. After he left, Juliet hugged her birth mother good and promised to keep in touch.
