Author's Note: This is a short chapter with a little character exploration.


Sam stood in the hallway of her home with several empty boxes at her feet as she tried to decide what to pack. She had quickly looked over her new 'life' profile and discovered that she had a brother so she grabbed pictures of Mark and the kids. It would be too risky grabbing a picture of her father since he was now a Tok'ra so she left his pictures intact.

She stood in the hall again, her mind completely blank, before she decided that she would just pack clothes first. She grabbed to empty boxes and headed to her room. First in the box were the essentials, underwear, bras and socks, enough of them to last her but then again she could always buy more. Next, she decided, were pajamas. She grabbed several long legged ones with matching button down or tank tops and then froze; she had two lacy, satin lingerie pieces. Both covered her considerably but they were both sexy. Her first instinct was to leave them - don't tempt the tempted - but then she thought about it rationally, she and Jack were going to pretend to be married, happily married, so even if she just had to put it on to answer the door or something she would have to bring them. She grabbed several dresses, pairs of jeans and skirts with various tops, jackets and blouses. Several pairs of shoes, some track and other heels and then her cosmetic things, a hair dryer, her gel, and the small little kit that held her toothbrush, toothpaste, floss, various makeup and brushes.

She quickly surveyed the room, looking for anything she missed. Her pillow, three of the books she was currently reading and her small jewelry box. That covered the bedroom. She moved out into the living room again and immediately found things. Her modest collection of CDs that she wouldn't be able to do without, a few of her favorite DVDs, a range from old classic romance, musical and comedies to current romance and action and a picture of Cassie.

As she continued looking around she felt herself begin to loosen up and she was able to find things easier, little things that she knew she wouldn't be able to do without. Whether it was a candle or her reading glasses. The little things that made her life away from the SGC hers. Before she realized how much time had passed Agent Barrett was suddenly standing in the doorway of her home.

"I don't mean to rush you Major Carter..." He began but Sam waved a finger at him.

"Sam, call me Sam."

"Okay, I don't mean to rush you Sam, but I need to get you over to Colonel O'Neill's so you two can ride in the same car to the airport." Barrett grinned at Sam's grin. She moved the box that she was holding in her arms, to get a better grip on it and Barrett rushed in to grab the box, "Here let me help you."

"Thanks Barrett."

"Hey if you're Sam then I'm Malcolm." He grinned at her as they made eye contact.

"Well thanks Malcolm."

"Don't worry about it, it's my pleasure."

Sam picked up another box and followed Barrett out to the car and after a few more trips they had all of the boxes from the house safely tucked away in the car and Sam locked her front door and joined Agent Barrett in the car to go and meet her new husband.


After Thought: I know...I know it's short but that just means I'll have to post the next part soon...that is if people still want another chapter.
