Still on the short side but all you J/S shippers should start preparing yourselves for the NEXT chapter….

Chapter 9
At first Sam was a little irked that no one would sit next to her on the couch. The guys were SO transparent! But soon after the crazy driver hit the poor cow she allowed herself to stretch out. The music was calming and hypnotic and Sam found herself drifting off to sleep between verses of "Down to the River to Pray."
While Daniel watched the crazy going ons of the film, Jack found himself watching Sam. He didn't mean to or want to, but he found himself constantly glancing her way. Still breathing? Check. Not bleeding? Check. Jack knew this was ridiculous as Sam was fine and mending on schedule but he couldn't help himself.
Daniel did indeed watch the film, but he was quite aware of Jack's glances at the slumbering Samantha Carter. How much longer were those two going to pretend?!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`
Sam awoke to complete silence. The film had ended and the DVD was sitting on top of its case with a post-it attached that said 'You conked around Chapter 3'. Sam smiled as she recognized the Colonel's precise handwriting. The drapes were still shut but the clock on the wall showed it was only a little after 1 in the afternoon. Sam still had time to play before heading back to the Infirmary. She frowned at the thought.
Carefully she eased herself into a sitting position and then using the arm of the couch as leverage maneuvered herself into a vertical one. Little spots danced in front of her eyes for a few moments but soon Sam felt confident that she could walk without falling over. Janet would KILL the Colonel and Daniel if she were to fall. Even if it was her own fault.
Sam walked into the kitchen and smiled as she spied her two favorite guys playing chess. The Colonel seemed to be holding his own against the multi-doctoraled Daniel Jackson. Sam always knew the Colonel was smarter than he led on.
"Sam!" Daniel said putting down the chess piece he was playing with and giving Sam a big smile.
"Hey Carter." Jack said still concentrating on his move. With a flourish Jack moved his queen several spaces to the right and took Daniel's rook. "Check!" He said smugly.
Daniel shook his head slowly as he re-examined the board. "That was a trap Jack… Checkmate."
"Damn!" Jack said standing up and stretching. "I nearly got you that time. Can I blame Carter for this?"
"Nope."
"Ah well, it was worth a try." Jack said with a shrug.
"You guys up for a different kind of game?" Sam asked pulling up a chair.
"What do you have in mind Carter?" Jack said with feigned innocence. Daniel just rolled his eyes.
"Remember that game we played while quarantined on P4X-347?"
"The planet with the addictive light?" Jack asked.
"That's the one." Sam said nodding.
"You want to play Password?!" Jack asked incredulously.
"I liked it." Daniel chimed in.
"It was fun Sir." Sam said reaching for some sheets of scratch paper.
Jack had to admit it actually HAD been fun. Actually it had been his idea and he hadn't been certain either Sam or Daniel would remember the game. Basically each team member had to think up a word- usually a noun and then use adjectives or other nouns to describe this word. The idea is to guess the main word with as few clues as possible. Stargate Password was a huge hit back at the SGC.
"But there's only three of us." Jack groused as he opened the refrigerator and took out a pitcher of iced tea. It might be 20 degrees outside but all three team members loved iced tea tea.
"We'll play off each other Jack." Daniel explained. "You and Sam try and guess my word and Sam and I will try and guess yours."
Jack nodded and then smiled. He knew the perfect word.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`
"Planet" Daniel said. His hints might bring up some interesting memories, but he was curious as to the responses from both Jack and Sam.
"Earth." Jack said helping himself to some corn chips. Daniel gave him a funny look. Jack never ate this much! **Guess his weight really did drop.**
"Abydos." Sam was fairly certain this wouldn't be correct but it was Daniel's word after all.
"Nope." Daniel said with a flourish as he moved on to the next clue.
"Simple people."
"Hey! That's more than one word." Jack grumbled.
"Deal with it Jack."
"Guess I can't say the Tok'ra homeworld can I?" Jack answered.
"Uh uh."
"What about the Nox?" Sam asked. They looked simple although their technology was quite advanced.
"Nope- still wrong. Ready for the next hint?" Sam and Jack both nodded.
"I don't actually have to guess the planet's numbers do I?" Jack asked.
"However you can describe it Jack."
"The next clue is 'trapped'." Daniel said failing to hold back a smile.
"Edora." Sam said quietly swirling the ice cubes around in her glass.
"Not Edora Sam." Daniel said just as quietly.
"Hey!" Jack said a little taken back. "I HAVE apologized for my behavior on that one. I admit to behaving like a total cretin and Carter, I sincerely regret hurting you." His voice softened considerably. "I really am sorry Sam." Jack then looked at Daniel with a sparkle in his eye.
"Thor's Planet." He said firmly.
"Jack's right." Daniel said a little disappointed. He didn't get a chance to share the remaining clues! Thor's planet served as a refuge for the native inhabitants who lived simple lives like their Viking ancestors. Both Jack and Teal'c became trapped in a labyrinth after being mistaken for G'ould.
"My turn!" Jack said with an evil grin.
