Sorry this took so long to get up, but the kids were sick and all. Hope you all like it!
Jacob walked back to the tel'tac in a state of shock. He knew that Sam and Jack would have to move on to accept that they were trapped and to get on with their lives til a rescue got to them, but damn! MARRIED!! Geez, he was so not going to be the one to tell all their friends on Earth. If he had to be shocked they would too. Sam did look happy, happier than he had seen her in a really long time, but Jack? Well, he just hoped that everything worked out for them and the change to adjusting to life back on earth wasn't too much for them.
"SGC Command this is Jacob come in" He had to wait for the long range communications to reach earth still trying to figure out just what to say and what to leave out. Should he tell them that they were married? Or just leave it all up to Sam and Jack?
"Jacob this is Hammond. Did you find Colonel O'Neill and Major Carter?"
"That's an affirmative. Both are alive and well. We will be leaving in the morning for the trip to the nearest stargate. We should arrive in about two weeks I will contact you as soon as we land."
"That is great news I will let everyone here know that they are ok. I know Daniel and Teal'c will be relieved."
"See you in a few weeks George. Out"
"Take care Jacob and give them our best."
Sam and Jack made the rounds that morning saying goodbye to all the friends they had made in their time on Edora. It was a very emotional morning, which brought Sam to tears.
"It's ok honey. Now that we know how to get here and what stargate to use. Maybe they can bring some equipment back and unbury the stargate that way we can visit." Jack hated it when she cried, which was a lot lately, and was trying anything to make her feel better.
" I know, I know. You just want me to stop crying huh?" She couldn't help the small smile and the laughter in her voice. He always looked like a scared little boy when she cried. It was almost funny.
"Of course not Sam, it's just you know I never gonna be good at these kinda things." He was grinning though, he knew she understood.
Jacob was just standing in the doorway to the cargo hod just watching his daughter and her husband. They really did make a nice couple. But it was still going to take Jacob a while to get used to the whole thing though. He was definitely going to have to be the first one through the gate. He had to be there to see the faces of everyone when they saw them together. Especially when they saw that Sam was pregnant. Chuckling to himself Jacob went back to the helm and left them alone to talk.
The trip to the stargate was long and boring. Jack was getting grumpy, Sam was getting antsy and Jacob was getting fed up with both of them. But thankfully they arrived soon enough. Standing in front of the open stargate Jacob said, "See you two on the other side, I will keep the door open for ya" With that he was gone leaving Sam and Jack standing there.
"So you nervous?" Jack asked his wife.
"A little how about you?"
"Nah, I'm just not looking forward to Frasier's needles is all."
"We're gonna be ok through this right?"
"Sam, I love you and we will be fine. Promise. Now we let's go home. I think they are waiting on us."
With that he gave Sam a gentle kiss on the lips and took her hand. And together they walked through the gate and back home.
