Chapter 4
Summary: Sam comes back to work after the weekend.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sam walked out of the elevator into the depths of the Cheyenne Mountain Complex. She always thought this would be her life, but now she has more to look forward to. She had Chris now. She just couldn't get him out of her head. Her mood was reflected by her gait to her lab.
"Morning, Sam."
"Hi Daniel," Sam said to him as he walked by. Daniel turned around as he watched her walk away. She didn't seem the same.
Sam opened the door to her lab and turned the light on. Just then she heard a ring from the phone. She put what she had in her hands on the table and picked up the phone.
"Hello?" She said into the receiver.
"Hi Sam," Chris's voice was on the line.
"Hi Chris. How are you?"
"Good. You?"
"I'm fine. I just got into work."
"I tried reaching you at home but I got your machine."
"So whatcha doin'?"
"I'm on break so I thought I'd call and how you were."
"Great, just great…"
5 minutes later in General Hammond's office…
"How many times have you tried paging her?" Jack asked.
"Enough times. Look like you're gonna have to go down there and inform her."
"No problem."
"Dismissed."
Jack walked out the door and made his way to Sam's lab. As he came closer to her lab, he heard laughter…
"No way! You're kidding?" Jack heard her voice. Someone special must be on the phone. He quietly walked down the hall and stopped just before Sam's door to listen.
"I gotta go, I'm getting ready to do an experiment… Yeah, deep space radar telemetry never gets old… I'll see ya later. Maybe we can get together tonight… Great… Okay. Love you too, Chris… Bye."
She hung up the receiver and looked up to see Jack standing in the doorway.
"Ya know, it's not nice to lie to your boyfriend."
