Sorry again that this chapter took so long to put up but my higher exams
started and I didn't have any free time, this chapter is pretty short but
hopefully (fingers crossed) I'll have the next chapter done when I get back
from my holiday. Please read and review.
The title of this chapter "Missing you" is dedicated to my best friend.

Teal'c entered the gym to find O'Neill pounding on a punch bag warming up before the spar. "O'Neill," Teal'c announced himself.
"Hey big guy, grab some gloves," Teal'c picked up the red gloves from the bench that O'Neill had indicated to with his head. Strapping them on he took up his position facing Jack, hitting their gloves together they moved back and started to give and dodge training punches. The idea of these spar sessions was to work on form and skill not to hurt the opponent. They danced round each other for a few minutes before Jack started his usual commentary.
"He hits with his right, left, good blocking by the T-man.O'Neill takes charge again.hits his target," Jack lay a feather hit on Teal'c' side. "So Teal'c how were things when I was gone," Jack fell into normal conversation as the pair continued to box. "How was Sam?" he only called her Sam to Teal'c and only to her rarely.
"She found your absence difficult O'Neill especially due to the recent loss of Dr Jackson," Jack stopped boxing causing Teal'c to do the same.
"What do you mean," he appeared concerned and that worried Teal'c especially if he found out what happened between them.
"I located Major Carter in the woman's locker room crying, she had also before hand immersed herself in work taking little time for food and sleep," Teal'c decided to keep the details of Sam and himself private.
"I get the immersed in work thing, she does that when ever someone goes missing, but crying," he was still confused by her reaction, "is she ok now? What happened when you found her? What did she say, do?" he was now concerned.
"We talked, she told her worry of losing you so soon after the loss of Dr Jackson, she also expressed the fear that she would be unable to succeed in finding you, I was able to reassure her that we would succeed in locating you," Teal'c looked at the still concerned face of Colonel O'Neill, "Major Carter is well now."
"I really missed her."

Sam sat alone in her quarters, in her hands she cradled the purple flower Teal'c had given her, 'How do you know when you're in love?' she had been asking herself that question since she left the briefing room an hour, she was no closer to the answer. 'Is it just a rationalisation of behaviour shared between two people?... no, Sam stay away from the science and logic.' She stood up and paced the small floor twirling the delicate flower in time to her steps.
'Is it the way you look at him.no, I look at Teal'c and Jack differently but I think I love them both.can you love two people at the one time.'
In frustration she let herself fall back on the bed staring at the ceiling she continued with her. 'Maybe I love them both but in different ways, one as a love of friendship and the other as a true love of the heart.but which is which.'
She looked over at the picture on her bed stand, it was of her, Jack, Teal'c, and Daniel, they were standing on the jetty at Jack's cabin with the lake sparkling behind them. They had gone up there a month before Daniel had died, they all looked so happy. Daniel was sitting on a chair in front of Sam with Jack and Teal'c on either side of her. They had timed the camera so no one was really posed, Daniel was laughing at something Teal'c had asked about the camera, Teal'c was slightly confused looking but had a small smile on his face. Jack had his arm round Sam's waist; he was smiling as he tickled her, causing her to be laughing hysterically.
"I missed you Jack," she whispered to the photo image as she recalled his recent absence. She let the memories of that time flow through her mind, the guilt, disperse, helplessness, crying, Teal'c, Jack coming home. 'How do you know when you're in love?' A gentle knock of her door caused her to rise from her bed, she opened the door still lost in thought, she looked at the figure waiting in her doorway. "Come in," she smiled to herself as she watched the man enter her room, 'I guess you just know."
