Sam woke with a small but painful headache and rolled over to find a sleeping colonel.

'O my god'

She looked to her right and realized that their clothes were tangled up in a knot.

'How could this have happened?' 'I wasn't that drunk was I?'

She quickly climbed out of his bed making sure not to wake him.

'Shit'

"Morning" he said then it hit him, he wasn't dreaming, he had slept with his 2IC!

"Sam...." He started

"No. Don't blame yourself. I should have never come to Minnesota with you in the first place; it was a disaster waiting to happen."

"Sam I don't regret what happened last night I only wish we were both sober."

She sat there staring into his chocolate brown eyes that were filled with love and compassion not believing what he had just said.

"I love you Jack O'Neill" She stated as a smile danced across her lips.

"I can't tell you how long I've waited to hear those words" He said now glowing.

"I love you too, Samantha Carter"
