First in the Drops of Jupiter series.
Now that she's back in the atmosphere
With drops of Jupiter in her hair, hey, hey
She acts like summer and walks like rain
Reminds me that there's time to change, hey, hey
Since the return from her stay on the moon
She listens like spring and she talks like June, hey, hey
She walks down the ramp. Her beauty enhances me. But there is a slight problem not that she would notice, she's used to getting every things she wants. Where's I'm used to having to fight for it, that's what happens when you're the middle child with a older sister and younger brother, you learn to fight for everything you love and want.
Tell me did you sail across the sun
Did you make it to the Milky Way to see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated
Sam, Samantha Carter the love of my life. But many things keep us a part while at the same time drawing us closer. I wonder what she would think if she knew this side of me, in truth it's the complete opposite of what I've ever shown them.
'Colonel how did it go' I'm drawn out of my thoughts to come face to face with General Hammond, the man that brought us together he really should get a medal. Not to mention he actually can handle us and hasn't been killed or sent insane thanks to our track.
'Great sir, you know trees, trees and did I mention trees. Truth being Sir it was boring, natives were nice and all but nothing to interesting'. I can feel Daniel glaring into my back; this is not an archaeology team, if it was I wouldn't be the leader, most probably cause I know nothing about history. Nodding the General heads out of the gate room while we head towards the torture chamber.
Tell me, did you fall for a shooting star
One without a permanent scar
And did you miss me while you were looking at yourself out there
I swear half the time she doesn't really notice me, sometimes she acts like I don't exist. Her laugh, her eyes everything about her draws me closer. I know I don't act it but how do you love a doctor, someone that makes my eyes glaze over when she starts doing her job.
The look Janet has on her faces makes me hold my breath, I hope nothing's happened to my light, my saviour. I don't think I could bear it, like all the other times she's gotten injured. But I know she'll survive she always does but that does mean she's more human than most people will ever be.
Now that she's back from that soul vacation
Tracing her way through the constellation, hey, hey
She checks out Mozart while she does tae-bo
Reminds me that there's room to grow, hey, hey
She has WHAT, I look at her like she's grown a third brain, she knows of my feeling towards her, but she just seems hell bent on pulling my heart out and crushing it, while I'm still alive and if I do end up dead she's just going to bring me back.
I just want it over and down with, I don't think I could take much more of this, I either need her in my arms or never to see her again. Though I don't think I could do that, she's the air I breathe, every thing I need to survive.
The thing is I know I'm not the person she's going to spend the rest of her life with, mostly because I'll sooner or later die trying to keep her alive, join the people who've fallen for her. Just I didn't think it was so soon.
Now that she's back in the atmosphere
I'm afraid that she might think of me as plain ol' Jane
Told a story about a man who is too afraid to fly so he never did land
Am I the only person that doesn't trust him, I can't talk to Daniel cause he knows how I feel about her and will tell me I'm jealous, and should just tell her. Yeah right like that's ever going to happen, I mean me telling her, I don't think I could survive that. Give me pissed off System Lords, a Pentagon wanting my blood but talking to her about 'us', I don't think I could handle that. I've noticed the way he looks at her when she's talking to other guys, that okay, but when she's talking to us even standing next to us it looks like he wants us dead. Probably because we spend all day together, and we do basically everything together.
Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back to the Milky Way
And tell me, did Venus blow your mind
Was it everything you wanted to find
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there
Sipping my beer and watching the hockey with my feet up on the coffee table, after that near hit with all those jaffa. I think I might take some downtime. Apparently the Russian's want at least one of their men on our team, I think I'll roll over and die first and it still would be fuck no.
It's becoming too hard to concentrate with her around, and I mean in both places. Sooner or later I'm going to slip up and get some one killed, I really am getting too old for this. Maybe if I if I do leave we'll finally be aloud to get together, release at last.
Can you imagine no love, pride, deep-fried chicken
Your best friend always sticking up for you even when I know you're wrong
Can you imagine no first dance, freeze dried romance five-hour phone
conversation
The best soy latte that you ever had . . . and me
She turns up on my doorstep, when I'm least expecting it, when I was fast asleep. Being happily asleep and then woken up is something I don't forgive to quickly, but for her I'll do anything, though not everything.
'Carter what happen?' She looks like hell, in every literal sense, her nose running she whips it on her sleeve, she looks so young. In all the years we've worked side by side I've never seen her this vulnerable. I give her one of my smirks that always gets a smile from her, and like every other time.
'I was late, I had to finish up a little bit of work. He was angry, I really don't remember what happened before Sir' what the hell does she by the first one, that's when I notice the kind of large bruise forming on the side of her face. 'He…Ja...Sir sorry, broke up with me. I wasn't sure where to go.' Boy, is he every going to be sorry, no one hurts her and ever gets away with it.
'Thanks okay Carter' lame I know but I can't think of anything else at the moment.
Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back toward the Milky Way
Okay what happened and where am I. Looking down I can't help blushing I'm in my cargos and a white shirt, with drool marks all over my shirt. I can still smell her, but there's something else I'm not sure what though. Strange since when does my kitchen magically starts itself. Awkwardly I kind of stumble in, she looks so cute, god I'm so horny. Her cute butt makes its way across my kitchen while dancing to the music playing on the radio.
'Morning' she spins around and looks at the ground guilty, what's she done to look like that. 'How was your sleep Sir?' she asks me, holding the coffee. Damn I forgot I need more coffee
Looking around the kitchen, I wonder if I have enough left for at least one cup. 'Oh you know, hell the Dust fairy was bothered to spring for some drool' I tease, and she gives me an uncertain smile. 'What's for breakfast Carter?' I hear myself ask, I'm just on auto drive.
'Not sure Sir' she replies, giving me a soft smile, turning around she looks in the cupboard. God she's a goddess in the morning. Something in the back of my mind in egging me on to do something I've dreamed about since I met her, getting up silently I walk up to her wrapping my arms around her waist, I press my smile into the back of her neck. She turns around in my arms and gives me a hesitant smile, moving in closer our lips brush, and I'm not about to give up a chance to kiss her.
End.
Its not really good I know, but it's my first Jack/Sam.
