AN: It's taken me a while to get as far as I have on this fic and don't really know where it's going, but now that schools out I hope I'll have more time to think about the future of the story. I posted the first part sometime back and with school nearing the end I kind of put the writing on hold. I hope you all enjoy the story as much as I have enjoyed writing it. Feedback not needed, but welcomed. Oh and any mistakes in here are mine.
Part 1
Samantha Carter was trying to turn the key in the keyhole without making too much noise. Hopefully her father fell asleep since he has to leave for a mission the next day. She got to the stairs when the light turned on.
"You're late." Jacob Carter said.
"Only by an hour." Sam used in her defense.
"Where were you?"
"I was just walking around the base, getting use to where everything is. It was no big deal. If you were this worried about Mark as much as you are worried about me then maybe-"
"Go to your room." Jacob interrupted her.
"This is crap! Why don't you stay up and wait for Mark? Why only me? I'm sick of this! The first opportunity I get I'm out of this hellhole. Ever since mom died you and Mark have been at each other's throats and I'm getting stuck in the middle. I have to listen to you saying crap about him and in return Mark ranting and raving about you. At least I come back and not one day before we have to move again. This is bullshit-"
"Watch your mouth."
Sam ignored him and headed upstairs.
The next morning when she woke up her father was already gone. He left his usual note with one hundred dollars for groceries. She didn't want to stay in the house so she decided to go for a walk. She grabbed some of her father's beer and found her brother's stash of cigarettes, in his still packed suitcase. Both of them probably wouldn't even notice. She put the things in her backpack and left the house, then just started walking. Her father just got reassigned her so no one knew her yet on the base. She walked until she found the perfect spot. She sat down on the hill overlooking the basketball courts. She took out a beer and opened it. She thought about how her life had turned out so far only at the age of seventeen. How three years ago her life had gone from happy to hellish. She hated moving around so much. She never made any friends and the people she did get to know she didn't keep in contact with. She only kept in touch with Sabrina. Her friend from when her mother was still alive.
"Hey." Sam looked up to see who was talking to her and brought her out of her thoughts.
"Hi." she replied.
"Got an extra one?" he asked motioning to the beer.
"Sure." She reached into her backpack and grabbed another.
"I've never seen you here before." he stated, after he sat down next to her.
"Just arrived a couple days ago."
"I'm Jonathon. Friends call me Jack."
"Sam."
They sat there in a compatible silence for a while, and then when they started talking they really opened up to each other.
"It's late. I should be going. I guess I'll see you around." Sam said, when she realized how late it was. She started to stand up only to be stooped by a hand on her arm.
"I want to see you again. Say Friday, around eight?" asked Jack. "I know we just met and we don't really know each other, but I'd like to get to know you better. I'm a Major on this base and not some psycho. So, what do you say? Dinner and a movie?"
"I'd like that." Sam agreed, with a smile. She gave him the information for him to pick her up. He gave her a quick kiss on the cheek and she watched as he went back over to the courts and continued playing.
FRIDAY
Sam stood in her room looking in the mirror. She hoped jeans and t-shirt was good enough. She didn't finish all her unpacking yet so her wardrobe was limited. She heard the doorbell ring and she ran down the stairs. "Be right there." she yelled out, checking her hair once more in the mirror quickly. She opened the door to see Jack, dressed in jeans, white t-shirt and a leather jacket.
They went out for something to eat then a movie. Sam never felt like this with anyone. Her normal shy personality wasn't the case with him. She felt she could open up to him. She told him about what happened with her mother. He talked about his parents divorce when he was younger and how it affected him and his brother, Greg. They talked to each other for hours over beers. The night finally came to an end when they arrived in front of Sam's house around eleven thirty.
"I want to see you again. I feel like we really connected." Jack said.
"Me too. How about tomorrow? You could show me around the base."
"Sure." he said, leaning down and giving her a light, brief kiss. When they leaned back from the kiss, faces a few inches apart, they stared into each others eyes. They both decreased the gap between them and kissed again. This kiss was deeper. They finally parted when air became a need. "Wow." he whispered.
"Yeah." she agreed, both with a smile on their faces. "I'll see you tomorrow."
"Ya sure, You betcha." he replied, leaning down to get one more kiss before he left.
After she closed the door she stood there leaning against the wood. Thinking. Hopefully Mark wouldn't be home tomorrow when Jack comes. That would be the last thing she wanted. Her thoughts went back to Jack as she walked further into the house. He was handsome, but had this boyish quality. Kind of tall with brown military cut hair. The age thing would definitely be a problem. They probably wouldn't go anywhere though. Her father would get transferred soon and they would probably never talk again. Her cell phone ringing brought her out of her thoughts. "Hello?"
"Hey, Sam. Where have you been? I've been trying to get a hold of you for the last four hours."
"Sorry Sabrina. I was on a date."
"A date? Give me details." her friend demanded. Sam could hear the smile in her voice. Sam continued to tell her best friend how she met Jack.
"Wow. So if you met him on base, I'm guessing he's a soldier?"
"Yeah."
"You're going to start a relationship with a guy who is over eighteen? Sam, I thought you were smarter than that."
"It's not really a relationship yet. We are just becoming friends. He seems like the type that wouldn't force anything either."
"I have a couple questions." Sabrina said, with still a hint of disapproval in her voice.
"Shoot." Sam replied, wanting to be totally truthful with her friend.
"What does he look like? Does he know you age. And does he know that your father is a General?"
"Tall, brown hair, brown eyes, very handsome. No, he doesn't know my age or about my father."
"What are you getting yourself into Sam?"
"Nothing. It will be okay."
"I hope so. Oh, I have to go, my mom just called."
"Tell her I say hi."
"Will do. I'll call you next Tuesday around eight when I get back from Chuck's house. Bye Sam."
"Bye, Sabrina."
End of Chapter one. Thanks for reading...more should be up soon.
