Hey! Thanks for the reviews-you guys are too nice! Anywho, the next chapter
has arrived and it gets a bit soppy. But never fear the next one will be
more action! Enjoy and review!
Chapter 6.
A while later, Paige and Nate walked out of the garage and into the street where SG1 were standing. Paige gave Nate a quick kiss on the cheek and waved goodbye as she walked towards the others.
"Be careful!" The twenty year old yelled after her.
"I will!" She yelled back.
"So you got everything?" Asked Jack walking down the street.
"Yep, and I got a free bag." She turned around to show them the tattered backpack she was carrying which was filled with the stuff Nate had given her.
"How did you pay for all that?"
"I didn't. In a month you will get a bill for it if it's not returned."
"Me or the SGC?"
"You, it's less conspicuous that way."
"Fine, but you better return it all so I don't have to."
"I wouldn't count on it." She smiled sweetly and got into Jack's truck.

Briefing room.
"Colonel, you, Dr. Jackson and Teal'c will fly out to D.C. tonight. You are in Washington for a conference that will be cancelled at the last minute; Major Carter had to stay at the base for an extra day on base and will join you at the hotel in the morning. Paige will fly out at the same time as the Major to visit some friends she has there. You will be all staying at the same hotel but Paige is a floor lower than the rest of you." Hammond paused. "How you go about this is totally up to you, but remember that if you are compromised, the SGC will not take responsibility for your actions."
"Yes Sir." Said Paige. "I have to go pack."
They watched as she exited the room in silence.
"I believe that Paige is anxious." Stated Teal'c.
"You think?" Jack replied sarcastically as he got up and left as well.
"I do not think that this will end happily for Paige."
"Neither do I Teal'c, neither do I." Hammond sighed and went to his office.

Paige's room.
A knock on the door startled the girl sitting on her bed with her clothes strewn around her.
"If your names not Bob then come in."
"Who's Bob?" Daniel asked poking his head around the door.
"I don't know anyone called Bob."
"Then why did you say..."
"I don't want to see any strangers, Bob would be a stranger because I don't know him."
"More of the Paige logic, you are a very interesting person."
"Yeah, psychologists can't wait to study me, they kept calling me so I had to change my number."
Daniel smiled and walked over to her bed, he found a reasonably free of clothes part of the bed and sat down.
"What's up?"
"Clouds," She smiled. "Planes, the sky."
"Funny, what's wrong then?"
"I don't know." She shrugged. "Maybe I'm just beginning to realise that there is no way I am going to get out of this without being taken to court. Maybe I like being here, actually doing something useful that isn't illegal. I helped Sam put up two more firewalls in the SGC system." A stray tear rolled down her cheek. "Hey who knows, maybe I've gone soft and actually like you guys."
"Hey come here." He pulled her into a hug and let her cry into his shirt. "Shh, it'll be alright. You'll get out; I know you will. I'll come and break you out if necessary; bake you a cake with a nail file in it."
Paige laughed. "Chocolate please."
"Whatever, you'll be fine."
"Thanks Daniel, for this, I needed it." She said pulling away.
"Anytime. What exactly are you doing here?" He pointed at the clothes.
"Packing."
"Really? You want some help?"
"Sure, just don't touch my underwear."
"Deal." He shook Paige's hand and started folding her jeans.
