A Different Point of View...

Jack POV

Well this was unexpected... amazing yes but unexpected. Not the fact that I'm dancing with Sam, will maybe a little, I mean she just broke up with him... and well there was the question was; Was there still some thing in the room that was bursting to get out? But what was unexpected was everyone else while I was dancing with Sam, the applause at the end of that last song and the knowing look on Hammond and the Presidents face. Hang on... the president I thought he said he was leaving! That liar! Right I'm sooo not voting for him at the next election! Hey look ... she's smiling god she's beautiful, I'm just glad to be dancing with her, to be close to her, to be just ...us. Her skin is so soft and silky like the dress which cover's so much of it, unfortunately. God, my head is buzzing and no it's not the alcohol is her... she's just so ...intoxicating, just being next to her is driving me wild, but even though heart has never beaten so fast ...there is a kind of peace that comes with looking in her eyes, knowing that at least until the end of the song she's mine. In a way I suppose she's always been mine, my team mate, my 2IC watching over her for the past seven years I've learned a lot from her, about her and the fact I'd do almost anything for her... waiting... that one was pretty simple, though it tore my heart, but I knew she'd be there some day to mend it... watching was hard, watching her move into the arm's of another man, but because of the waiting, because of the barricade that blocked the door in the room that I was helpless, it was because I'd do anything for her, watching her happy while I was...I was lost. But tonight... she was in my arms not his... she would never be in his arms again... I just wish she could be in mine forever.

Half way through the next song Jack felt Sam shift uneasily, her eyes revealing that although she had desire burning deep within her there was also hurt and guilt. She moved closer, her head a comforting weight on his shoulder, her breath cool on his tingling skin.

Another short one but trust me, the next one should be ready soon so don't worry!
