"I thought I might find you up here" Jacob said
"Yeah he was having a little trouble sleeping, so I brought him up here" Jack replied
"It's a nice night to be out" Jacob replied
"Yeah it is do you want a beer?" Jack asked
"No thanks I'm fine" Jacob replied
"How are you doing? I heard what happened the other day at the SGC"
"I'm fine, at least I will be I think, I just need to do things my way, you know" Jack replied
"Sure" Jacob replied
"As for Jonas, I think he knows I didn't mean what happened, it was just bad timing that's all" Jack continued
"Tell that to George and Dr Frasier" Jacob said
"That bad?" Jack asked
"Well it'll be about nine weeks according to Dr Frasier before his injuries a fully healed if that's what you mean" Jacob said
"Ouch" Jack said
"Anyway Jack I can't stay, I really only came to give you this" he said taking an envelope from his pocket and handing it to him
"What is it?" Jack asked
"It's from Sam, she asked me to give it to you months if anything.... she said it was important" Jacob continued
"Thanks I'll read it later" Jack replied
"I'll leave you to it then, if you need anything, if you need anytime alone I'll be around for a few more days while I sort thing out so just give me a call" Jacob said
"We'll be fine Jacob" he said wearily
Half an hour later and Jack had only just managed to get Connor to sleep, he'd have to put it down to all the changes in the last week or so, last week he had two parents that cared for him a lot, he was use to the set up of things the way they were, in respect of the fact that his home was with Sam in her house and he would be around to help out when ever she wanted his help. Until last week in the last three months he found himself spending more and more time away from his house and more time over at Sam's place. He wanted it that way he wanted to spend more time with his son. Now he could spend all the time he wanted with his son only now even that had changed instead of just been Connor's father he had to be his whole family especially since Jacob had to spend so much time away. He knew that one day he'd have to go back to the SGC to save the world again, to protect the only way he knew how and that had changed too he couldn't be, the same O'Neill anymore, the one that took risks when needed, he had to play by the book, play it safe to make sure he would come back home.
He sat down in the living room after grabbing a beer from the kitchen, he forgot all about the letter Jacob had given him which he just noticed he left on the table after bringing Connor inside. There was part of him that didn't want to read it, he wasn't ready to read it. The funeral had only been two days ago he was still adjusting to not having her around and all of a sudden here's a letter addressed to him which for whatever reason she wrote sometime ago instead of just talking to him.
A/N sorry this took so long I've had trouble uploading it. Anyway not long till the end so keep checking back, please review and there may be a sequel to this. Oh and someone please tell me if the writing in this has improved since I started it.
Thanks
