Jack's soft exhalation of breath washed over her skin as he chuckled softly and buried his face in her shoulder. She moved her hand to idly play with hairs at the nape of his neck - revelling in the fact that she was finally able to do so - and gave a sigh of her own. She would have preferred for this to have remained just between them for a little longer than one night! They were still getting used to things themselves and at this rate it'd be all over the base in a matter of hours. Oh well...it couldn't be helped.

Now all they had to do was get rid of an inquisitive archaeologist, a nosy Jaffa and his observant Kelownan sidekick. Facing all the remaining System Lords armed only with a pen knife and roll of duct tape would probably be easier....

Listening carefully, she could hear the sounds of quiet but intense arguing from outside. Time to finish this before one of them started banging on the door. She didn't want to be dragged out of her cozy new world just yet. Turning her head slightly she whispered to her lover:

"Cover your ears."

He lifted his head from where it was buried in her shoulder and gave her a quizzical look.

"Cover your ears." She repeated.

He obediently rolled away from her and buried his face in the covers, pulling a pillow over his head.

She took a deep breath and yelled: "Daniel! Do you mind? We're a little busy right now!"

At her side, she could see Jack's body shake as he laughed, smothering the sound with the pillow.

"Sam?" Came the uncertain call from outside.

"Yes!" She shouted back. "Any chance you could come back...later?"

'Preferrably *much* later'

Jack removed the pillow from his face.

"*Much* later!" He yelled and waggled his eyebrows at her.

Sam grinned back. His unspoken suggestive innuendo didn't even make her blush. Probably because they'd gone way beyond that last night.... Still, it was uncanny how 'in sync' with her he always seemed to be.

"Er, yes. Okay...we'll just go then - " Daniel's voice interrupted them once more.

'Yes, go *away* Daniel!' She thought uncharitably.

"Yes...you do that." Jack called back, obviously no more impressed by their friends continued presence than she was.

As they lay there, simply staring at each other, they dimly heard the sound of car doors slamming and an engine roaring to life, then fading away into the distance.

Sam let the grin on her face widen to become a huge smile. Yeah, she knew it was dopey, but frankly? At that moment in time, she really didn't care.

"Finally!" She said with slightly more force than she intended.

An answering smile crossed Jack's face as he picked up on the tone of her voice.

"Yeah," He murmured throatily, reaching out to run a finger down her jaw in a loving caress.

"I didn't think they were *ever* gonna leave."

She tugged his hand, trying to pull him towards her. "So...where were we?"

She gave a small shriek as he stopped resisting and moved to settle on top of her.

"I believe we were celebrating your promotion, Colonel." He said softly, before dipping his head to cover her lips with his own.
