"Eurgh, Ok, fine,just tell Hammond that i've just gone to find out what Carter's up to."

Jack sighed, Daniel smiled at him, he knew how hard the past few years of working side by side had been on them both.

"Sure. Now go and talk to her."

Daniel called to Jack as he ran after Carter.
Jack caught up with Carter at the elavator. She look slightly flussed when Jack appeared at her side.

"Carter."

"Look Sir i was way outt'a line back there, i don't know what came over me."

"Sam.."

Jack stopped as the lift arrived, he jestured for Carter to get in first then he followed.

"Hold the doors."

That was Siller the base's resident technician, Damn thought Jack i'm not gonn'a be interupted again, so he quickly pressed any button to close the doors in time before Siller got here and Jack would have to wait god knows how long for another chance like this to talk to Sam.

"Sir,"

Sam looked at Jack puzzeled, he simply shrugged, Sam knew not to question the Colonel's maddness. Sam looked at the floor she couldn't look him in the eye into those eyes after what she had done. What was wrong with her this morning? she thought to herself, first in the comissary and just then in the halls, she reminded herself to ask Janet to check her hormone levels, that thought brought a little smile to Sam's slightly pink face. Jack had been watching her for the past minute unsure wheather he should mention Daniel had sent him.

"Daniel said i should come and talk to you."

Jack cursed himself, Sam grinned knowing that Jack probably wasn't going to say that but he always spoke his mind anyway. Sam loved that about him although it got him into trouble sometimes at least he was telling you what he was really thought about the matter at hand.

"Trust Daniel."

Sam thought she should lighten the mood, it probably took a lot of guts on Jack's behalf to come and talk to her. Jack smiled thanking her.

"look about before."

They both said at the same time.

"Er you first if ya like."

Jack wasn't fussy he just hopped Carter put a stop to this before he said something he would regret again.

"I was out of line Sir."

The elavator stoped at its desirred floor which had been the infirmary, Jack had guessed at the right button.

"It wont happen again."

Carter added as she moved to get out of the lift, Jack pulled her back and pushed another button this time one on the opposite end of the list of choices.

"Sir?!"

Sam questioned.

"Look Carter just hear me out."

Jack twinged, why couldn't he keep his mouth shut, oh well it would probably be better once it was all out in the open, he hoped.
