The music changed it took Jack a second to recognise it.
"Mr Secretary, excuse me there is something I need to do."
"Of course Colonel, I should really go and talk to Jacob Carter anyway." Jack turned and scanned the room for Sam. He finally located her talking to Marianne and Zack. He crossed the room quickly so he was at her side.
"I need to borrow her for a couple of minutes."
"Go ahead Jack." Zack said with a smile. "Marianne..." He nodded.
"I'll talk to you later Sam, sir."
"What's up Jack?" Sam asked.
"Come dance with me."
"You interrupted because you want to dance?" Jack was never a big one for dancing at the best of times.
"If you listen to the song." Sam listened for a minute.
~ Or is it in his face? No that's just his charm. In his warm embrace? No that's just his arms. If you want to know if he loves you so. It's in kiss ~
Sam smiled.
"The 'Cher principle right'?" He questioned.
"I can't believe you remembered that."
"I remember everything you say." He replied. Sam looked at him intently.
"Everything?" She questioned.
"Okay I remember the important things."
"Better."
"Besides it worked out pretty well for me."
"Me too."
"I love you." He whispered.
"Prove it."
"You want me to prove it. How exactly?"
"I'll refer you to the pre-mentioned song."
~ And if you want to know if he loves you so It's in kiss. That's where it is.~
Jack kissed her.
"I guess you really do love me. I love you too."
"So did I see Cassie dancing with Myles earlier?" Jack asked as the next song began.
"Yes."
"Am I going to have to worry about her developing a thing for sailors?" Jack questioned.
"No. She was just warning him off Janet."
"She doesn't like him either?" Jack asked.
"It really doesn't matter if she likes him or not, she doesn't want him going out with Janet."
"She has good taste but she doesn't want Janet seeing anyone?" He questioned.
"No she wants Janet to be seeing someone. She knows exactly who she wants Janet to be dating; she's been trying to make it happen since Janet adopted her."
"Daniel." Jack said with realisation.
"Exactly. I happen to agree with her, Janet and Daniel are perfect for each other, but Cassie understood about Daniel and Sha're so she didn't push it. But now Daniel has come to terms with it, she doesn't want anyone else muscling in on her mother, while she tries to get them together."
"That's what all the subtle hints and about Danny and Doc have been about."
"Yes. I promised her I'd help out covertly."
"And she wants to keep Janet away from Myles?" Jack asked.
"Yes."
"I might be able to help out there. Hey Siler?"
"Yes sir?"
"Can you mobilise the troops to keep Commander Hartman away from Doctor Fraiser? It needs to be done on the QT."
"Yes sir."
"Thank you. There you go."
"You're one of the good guys Jack." Sam said with a smile.
"You're only just noticing."
"I noticed. Along with what a cute six you have."
"And just when did you notice that fact?" He asked.
"Let's see the first time would have to be after the ladies first comment."
"Oh you mean just before you pointing out I really would like you once I got to know you."
"To which you replied you adored me already." Sam retorted.
"What was not to adore? You were feisty and you didn't back down. I liked that."
