"Jack?" Sam called as she entered the house. She dropped Ferretti back off
at the base before turning around to head home. "Jack?" While looking
around she noticed the answer machine was flashing. She pressed the button.
'You have one message.' The machine told her. 'Sam, it's me. I'm just leaving this message in case you don't come back to the base. I'm probably going to be home late, I got stuck with a load of requisition paperwork and I thought you had a lot, try getting the whole bases. Anyway I'll be home around 2030 hopefully.' Sam smiled and glanced at her watch. She had about fifteen minutes before Jack came home. That left her just enough time.
"Sam?" Jack called when he let himself in.
"Coming." Sam said coming down the stairs dressed in a trench coat and stiletto heels.
"Going somewhere?" Jack asked.
"No." Sam replied.
"So what's with the trench coat?" He asked.
"You really have had a long day haven't you?" Sam said.
"Yes."
"Why do people usually wear trench coats?" Sam asked.
"It's raining." Jack said.
"Guess again."
"They are a spy."
"Guess again."
"They are the neighbourhood flasher." Jack guessed.
"Almost." Sam said pulling up the bottom of the coat to reveal the top of stockings.
"What have you got on under there?" Jack asked.
"Not a lot." Sam smiled.
"Define not a lot."
"Why don't you come and find out for yourself?"

"So what brought all this on?" Jack asked later that night.
"I had a good day." Sam smiled and gave him a kiss.
"You spent the day at the Academy." Jack countered.
"I know. Oh by the way Ferretti and Hannah have a date tomorrow night. So I'm going to win my bet."
"Oh so that's why you are so happy." He gave her another kiss.
"And General Kerrigan is sending me some personnel files so I can find a new lab tech."
"Since when are you getting a new lab tech?" Jack asked.
"Since I talk to the General when he gets back."
"So you haven't talked to him yet?"
"Not yet. I want a new tech to take over some of the more tedious day to day stuff so I can train some of the more experience techs to take over more of the work. So I have more time, to work on the gate updates and other projects."
"So you want more staff so you can delegate more?"
"Something like that. It would be nice to have more time, less stress. Maybe we can spend more of our downtime fishing."
"Wow, what happened to the workaholic I married?" Jack asked.
"She changed her priorities." Sam gave him a kiss. "My job isn't my whole life anymore."
"When did you decide this?" Jack asked.
"General Kerrigan asked me to do some spot uniform checks since I had a few hours to spare. Looking at all those kids I realised that where I am now is never in a million years where I thought I'd be when I joined the Air Force."
"What you didn't think you'd be running around saving the world from evil aliens for a living?" Jack teased.
"No, but I think it's time I told my life back." Sam said.
"No arguments from me."
"Good now where were we?" Sam asked.
"I have no idea. But I'm sure you can remind me." He gave her another kiss.

"Sam?" Jack said as he crept down the stairs, it was the middle of the night.
"In here." She called softly from the living room.
"What are you doing up?" He asked coming to join her on the couch where she was wrapped in a blanket.
"I couldn't sleep, so I thought I would look at these." She said looking at the wedding photos.
"You did look beautiful." Jack said.
"You didn't look bad either." She showed him one of the more formal pictures. "But my favourites are the ones Teal'c took." Sam had given Teal'c several disposable cameras and asked him to take pictures of the wedding from his perspective, seeing as this was the first traditional Earth wedding he had been too. There were interesting candid shots of their friends and family.
"He's pretty good." Jack said.
"Yes he is." Sam agreed.
