Letters Part 2

A Letter to Sam

Cheyenne Mountain, Colorado

Four days, she was four days overdue for contact. That was so not Carter. Daniel said that they were going to search all the planets along the path they were traveling but Jack knew that it would all come to nothing. They tried the Tok'ra but they couldn't find anything, Jacob was unbelievably distraught. His little girl was out there somewhere and he couldn't find her. Teal'c had told Jack how Sam reacted when Jack disappeared with Maybourne, he was trying to get Jack to open up but only made him more upset and closed off. Everyone kept coming up to him and saying that they would find her, Janet mostly. Finally he couldn't take it anymore and he locked himself in Sam's office. No one would think of looking for him here.

He looked around at all Sam's little doohicky's and wondered exactly how long it would take her to find a way home. She was smart she would find a way, if she was alive... He didn't want to think about that. She left her computer on, he vaguely remembered her saying something about running diagnostic programs on the gate. Curiosity got the best of him and he sat down at her desk and nosed around her computer. There was one folder that was password protected, this he had to see. He tried Sg1, SGC and everything else he could think of that related to work, he even remembered some technobable, but no luck. Finally he tried names Dad, Jacob, Cassie, Cassandra, Janet, Daniel, Teal'c, Jack nothing worked. He decided to leave it for a few minutes and went nosing around in her desk, it was there he found the password. On the back of one of her jotters in funky graffiti writing was written,

"Samantha O' Neill!"

Wow he was so not expecting that and felt kind of weird looking at it, he put it into her scanner and printed it off. Then he looked in the folder and nearly fell off the chair when he saw the contents.

"Holy shit Carter, so this is what you do all day."

Inside were journal entries one for P3X595, one for the Land of Light and so on. The background is what had actually caught his attention it was a drawing of him, with no top on and down in the corner was her signature. She drew semi-naked pictures of him. He read the journal for the Land of Light,

"I can't believe I did that, I mauled the face off my CO. What is he going to think of me now? Why did he take me to the infirmary? Why didn't he want me as much as I want him? I mean wanted him. No I do want him."

This was getting mondo, mondo, mondo weird. Jack saved the folder onto a disk and put it in his pocket then he shut down the computer. She had wanted him all this time, he was such an idiot. He took out her jotter and started writing:

To my dearest Sam,
You've been missing for four days.......
