Chapter 3:
"Receiving Tok'ra IDC sir" Simmons said looking up at General Hammond awaiting his order
"Open the iris" General Hammond drawled in his thick southern accent.
The iris yawned open and Jacob Carter stepped through dressed in the sand coloured uniform of the Tok'ra.
"Dad! I'm so glad you came" Sam said hugging her father. "I wouldn't miss my little girls birthday now would I? George, Jack, Teal'c" Jacob acknowledged each of his friends before heading out of the gateroom.
(Later at Sam's house)
"I am so glad you guys all came," Sam said taking a beer from jack as he walked out of the kitchen. "Wouldn't miss it for the world" Jack said smiling at Sam and desperately trying to resist the urge to hug her. The night went on, Sam opened a few gifts a toast was made then people began to leave, till only Sam, Jack, General Hammond, Daniel, and Jacob were left.
"OK, lets break out the expensive stuff now" Jack joked lifting his wineglass. Sam gave jack a large grin, shook her head then left for the kitchen to see her father. "Dad, leave the cleaning up, there is no need, I'll do it in the morning.' Sam looked around at the disaster that was her kitchen "or just move." Jacob smiled and headed towards the living room. "Dad wait, I need to talk to you." "What is it Sammie?" Jacob looking concerned at his daughter. "Well." She hesitated, although she had had this conversation over and over in her head she was still unsure. "I've sort of been seeing some one." Sam stuttered. "Honey that's great, really! but why are you telling me?" Jacob paused "Is it that serious?" "Umm.well yea" Sam added "I'd like it to be, and I'd really like your approval, and so would he." "Oh, so I know him?" Jacob asked running through a list of possibilities in his head. Jacob turned around to grab another soda "Its Jack!" Sam blurted out. Jacob froze, then slowly turned around. "I am sorry did you say Jack?" Sam nodded "JACK!" he yelled. "Dad calm down Sam cried looking towards the door hoping no one heard, most of all Jack. "I'm sorry honey but.Jack!" Sam nodded and blushed slightly. Jacob looked confused "Jack; your commanding officer Jack? Sam sighed. "I know its wrong but I cant help how I feel, I tried for years not to." A tear rolled down Sam's cheek. Jacob reached up and brushed away her tear. "Sammie I am so happy for you, but what about the regs, we both know what'll happen if your caught and I also know how much your career means to you, is he worth it." Sam paused "Yea" she almost whispered before her dad grabbed her and hugged her.
Meanwhile in the living room General Hammond had drained his wine glass, he rose from his seat and headed for the kitchen, just before he reached the door he heard something that made him stop in his tracks.
"Sammie I am so happy for you, but what about the regs, we both know what'll happen if your caught and I also know how much your career means to you, is he worth it." Hammond was slightly taken aback. "Yea" he heard Sam whisper. He knew about Sam and jack's feelings for on another, who didn't? But for them to act on those feelings and break regulations. What should I do?
