A loud banging sound filtered into Sam's mind and she groaned, snuggling closer to the warm body beside her. She smiled when she heard Daniel grumble and shift slightly, pulling her closer in the process.
"I think someone is trying to get your attention." She sniggered softly against his chest.
"I'm not getting out of bed until I'm damn well ready!"
"Oh really?" She raised her head and kissed him tenderly. "And why's that?"
Daniel smiled at her. "Because we wasted 7 years already...I want to make sure we don't waste anymore time."
Sam yawned. "That's sweet. But I don't think your front door can take much more." She slipped out of bed and threw Daniel's bathrobe on.
"Where you going?" Daniel laid back and rubbed his eyes.
"To tell whoever is at your door..." She was interrupted by the sound of more banging. "Alright I'm coming already!" She shook her head. "To go away and leave us in peace."
Daniel laughed softly and got out of bed, stretching like a cat and pulling his jeans on. He reached out and grabbed his glasses and then looked out the window. "I don't think they're going to leave Sam."
Sam snorted at his comment as she opened the door.
Jack looked her up and down, from her tousled hair to Daniel's bathrobe and her bare feet. He raised his eyebrow and looked at her, a smile on his face. "I hate it when I don't see things coming!"
"Excuse me?" Sam stood there in shock.
"This. I did not see this coming." His eyes left hers as he glanced at Daniel who had just appeared behind her. Jack smiled at him seeing the happy, content look on his face and watching the way he gently kissed Sam's neck. "You do know I owe Janet 50 bucks now!"
"Really? Well that will teach you to make stupid bets Jack. Come in for a coffee."
"Um." Jack's gaze shifted to Sam.
"It's ok. I was just leaving." Sam mumbled as she turned around and walked back into the bedroom, shutting the door. Daniel indicated for Jack to come in, started the coffee and then went into the bedroom to talk to Sam,
She was already dressed and brushing her hair when he walked in. "Sam. You don't have to go."
She sighed softly and turned. "I know. But I need to."
Daniel looked into her eyes and nodded. "I understand. I'll come over to yours later ok?"
"Ok." Sam kissed him lovingly and left the room, saying goodbye to Jack on the way out.
"So.....how long have I been in the dark for then?"
"About 8 hours Jack."
"That recent?" He watched Daniel nod. "You look happy."
Daniel smiled as he sipped his coffee. "I am. I can't believe I didn't see this before. I wouldn't admit to myself how much she meant to me because I was scared it would be taken away. Whenever I've needed her she's been there for me Jack. She's loved me and helped me through the last 7 years. It's time for us to move on now."
"I'm glad you two kids have found each other. You both deserve a shot at happiness and I can see it working for you two. You have a good friendship. A lot in common. And you already have a deep respect and friendship for each other." Jack picked his coffee up. "You just make sure that she knows how much you love her Daniel. Make sure you tell her everything she means to you."
"I think someone is trying to get your attention." She sniggered softly against his chest.
"I'm not getting out of bed until I'm damn well ready!"
"Oh really?" She raised her head and kissed him tenderly. "And why's that?"
