--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sam and Daniel walked down the sidewalk toward Daniel's apartment. Usually, she met him there and they took turns driving to the movie. But tonight, Daniel had insisted that they walk because it was so beautiful outside. She was glad he had made that decision.
The cool night air sent a breeze through her hair and she shivered slightly. Daniel noticed and stopped what he was saying to ask her, "Are you cold?" His jacket was draped across his arm and he raised it toward her, offering its use.
Sam always appreciated the concern he showed for her, but she found the brisk air refreshing. "I'm fine. Besides, we're almost there."
Sam was sorry that the night was about to end. She and Daniel often went to movies together, but this was the best night she had ever had. Maybe it was the walk; maybe it was being able to just relax for a while and look at the stars, or maybe it was the way Daniel's eyes glittered brightly whenever he looked at her. It made her feel important and wanted. She had missed him so much, and she cherished every moment she got to spend with him now that he had returned.
"Um..." he began to say. "About that... I was thinking that you don't have to leave as soon as we get back. You could come inside."
Caught off guard, she asked, "Inside your apartment?" Sam wanted to go in. She wanted to spend as much time with him as possible, but she wasn't sure it was a good idea. There was a limit to how close team members were supposed to be, and she and Daniel had been dangerously close to that limit practically since they'd met. For team members of the opposite gender, going to the movies together every other week was almost bad enough. Spending time at each other's homes late at night was practically asking for punishment.
He laughed softly as he asked, "Where else would we go into?"
"Geez, you don't have to make me feel stupid," she joked.
"Well, somebody has to," he shot back.
"You don't have to be so good at it." She made a mock-irritated face at him and elbowed him in the side.
This made him laugh harder. "I know you're stronger than me, Sam, but you don't have to beat me up."
Trying to sound serious through her laughter, she threatened, "Don't make me take you out right here."
"Oooh, you can hurt me any day," he responded with a devilish grin.
"I'm sure you'd love that. You seem to have a certain fondness for being beaten up."
"Ouch, did ya have to bring that up?"
"Hey, I'm not the one who started this," she responded innocently.
"Touche."
Without Sam realizing it, they had arrived at the door to Daniel's building. As he took out his keys, he smiled at her and asked, "So are you coming in?"
She smiled back and nodded. "Yeah."
