Into the Lyons Den Part 18 (epiloge)
5 months later
Sam sat outside on the deck, sipping on coffee and waiting for Mac and Janet to arrive. Her thoughts were shattered by the sliding door opening.
"Sam." Janet couldn't contain her joy in her voice.
Sam laughed at her friend as she came into Sam's view. "Janet, Mac. How are you?"
"Sam," Mac and Janet shared a look before turning back to Sam. "How are we? We are fine. but, how are you this morning?"
Sam stood up and went into the house, with Janet and Mac following. "How am I? I'm wonderful." She turned to her friends as they all stood in the kitchen. "I'm getting married to the man that I love with my whole being. And in around 8 months I'm going to have our child. I've been waiting for this day my entire life. Especially since meeting Daniel."
All Janet could do was smile and start laughing at her friend. Sam was just glowing as she said those words. Mac, joined in and finally Sam started.
"I hate to break this up, but everyone needs to get ready." The three of them looked at the other woman in the doorway that none of them noticed came in. "Nicole," Sam went over and gave her a hug, "I didn't hear you come in."
"Well, none of you did. No come on, lets go." Nicole started to head upstairs with Janet and Mac behind her. Sam was behind Janet. She was about to ask about Maria when she found herself with an armful of her.
"Aunt Sam!"
Sam stopped to talk to Maria. "Maria, hello dear. And how are you today?"
"I'm excited, Aunt Sam. Mom told me that I'll have a cousin to play with in a few months. I hope it's a girl. Where is Uncle Daniel?"
Sam laughed, "slow down there sweetheart. Yes, you will have a cousin to play with. And, don't tell Uncle Daniel, I hope it's a girl too. And Uncle Daniel is off getting ready to our friend Jack's house. Now come on, lets go before your mom gets mad at us." Sam picked her up and they walked upstairs.
Jack's house
Daniel was pacing in Jack's living room when Jack came back from the store. Jack noticed that Daniel didn't noticed that he was in the room. Jack walked closer to Daniel, hoping not to scare him. "Danny."
Daniel jumped and turned to face him. "Jack. God you scared me."
Jack just smiled at his friend. "I'm not surprised. You seemed a bit lost there."
"Yeah..." Daniel was cut off by a knock at the door.
Jack went and answered it. "Ahh Harm. come in."
"Thank you sir. I picked up someone on my way here."
"O'Neill."
"Teal'C, buddy, come in." Harm and Teal'C followed Jack into the living room where they found Daniel sitting on the couch.
"So, Daniel, how are you?"
Daniel was quite for a mintue before answering. "I'm feeling great. I'm very excited about it. I'm marrying the woman of my dreams and I'm going to be a dad. What more can I ask for."
"The end of the Gou'ald?"
"Funny Jack."
"I know!"
"So, Daniel Jackson, how is Samantha?"
"She is doing fine Teal'C. She's kinda upset about being assigned to Earth, but she knows that it is what had to happen."
The four men sat around each one lost in their own thoughts.
"So Daniel, where is Sam's brother and Jacob meeting us?"
"They are meeting us at the church, Harm. They decided that would be better so I didn't feel so confined with them and you guys. Even through I wouldn't have felt confined, but I do you more comfortable with you guys than I think I would of with them. If that makes sense."
"More thatn you know Danny."
"JJaacck. Are you going to ever stop calling me that. I mean, I am getting married today."
"Yeah to Carter."
Daniel put his right hand up as to say something.
"Daniel don't start. No matter how hard you and Sam try, I'll always call her that, I don't care if she is taking you name."
"O'Neill, so you not think that is would be a good idea for you to start calling Samantha by her first name?"
"Teal'C, my man, we will have a discussion about this another day. Because today is all about Daniel and Carter. So I think it's about time to get ready." The men headed to get ready.
Church
Jacob met up with Daniel at the church and he took them aside.
"How are you son?"
"Frankly, terrified. I'm hoping that I'll make a good husband for Sam. What if I don't?"
"Danny, you'll be fine. Everything will be ok. I couldn't have picked a better person for my daugther."
"Ok."
"Now come on, it's almost time to start this."
30 minutes later found the wedding getting ready to start.
Daniel stood by Jack, waiting for the bridal march to start. When it did, everyone turned their attention to the back of the church. They saw Sam being walked down the isle by her father. The moment that Sam and Daniel made eye contact, they both knew that everything was going to be all right.
