By the way thanks so much for the feed back and to the clever one who guessed my plot.
Oh and sorry it's taking me so long to post but we just got broadband and well it's a long story but I'd have to say dial up was way easier.
Chapter 4 A little Ditty – Too much to little to late
Janet looked up from the test results in front of her. No way was this possible. Sam's contraceptive shots were all up to date. She could not be pregnant. But the results did not lie and she could not keep Sam in suspense any longer.
Sam was sitting on the bed in the infirmary shaking her head. She was mystified. The only man she'd made love to in the last 3 months was Jack and he was sterile. She'd sneaked a peak at Janet's files 'bout a half and hour ago whilst Janet was in the lab getting her results and sure enough Jack had paper work stating his vasectomy was confirmed and he had no live sperm.
So how?
Jack wandered down to the infirmary to check on Sam.
"So Carter what's Frasier diagnosed. Something you brought back from P72-456 that's gonna make us all barf 6 hours a day?" Jack joked.
"Sir, I think you'd better sit down I'm in trouble and don't know how I got here"
Jack sat, upset that things were serious. "What's the problem Sam why aren't you lying down?"
Frasier came in at that moment to let Sam know the "good" news but could not tell her in front of her commanding officer.
"What's Up with Carter and how long before we fix her?"
Sam looked at Janet and Janet nodded quickly to confirm.
"Janet how can this be"
Jack was really getting worried now.
"Carter. What's up?"
"Ahh Janet could the Colonel and I have a moment please"
"Sir you know the other week when…well we were weak?"
Jack looked at her without comprehension.
Sam tried again.
"Jack" that got his attention.
"When I came over to visit you!"
"Oh yeah" a still puzzled Jack said.
"Well you know our activities that night had some repercussions"
Jack frowned. "What possible repercussions?"
"Sir I'm pregnant"
Jack's face went stony. His jaw clenched and unclenched. His heart was breaking.
He turned and marched out of the infirmary not looking where he was going just getting away from Sam so he could fall apart in solitude.
Jack slammed into his office causing a few certificates to fall off the wall. Jack did not care.
He slammed the door closed and kicked at the fallen certificates.
Then he leaned back against the closed door and wept.
He always knew he could not have her but did she have to go straight from him to some other lover.
He was in pain. And did not know what to do about it.
He did not know how long he stood there leaning against the door but all of a sudden he remembered how Sam had told him. As if he was responsible for getting her pregnant. He couldn't and he remembered telling her that. Was she going to pass off her pregnancy as his?
Meanwhile in the infirmary.
"Janet I'm telling you the truth Jack is the baby's father."
"Sam you're delusional." Janet said angrily she had been having this argument with Sam ever since the Colonel had stormed out.
"Janet unless this pregnancy is a phantom one.."
"Sam you don't know and I can't tell you but Jack cannot be the father of your child"
"And" she continued "You are definitely pregnant".
"Janet could you just humour me and test Jack. I know about his vasectomy but he is the only man I have been with in the last three months" Sam cried.
Janet was positive Jack could not be the father but Sam was getting hysterical and in her condition that was not a good idea.
Janet spoke to a passing aide and motioned to a sedative.
"Sam I'll re test Jack but your going to have to calm down this is not going to help you or your baby"
Janet stopped and thought out loud. "You do want to keep it?"
"Yes" Sam hiccuped through her tears.
"And I want to keep its father too" sobbing uncontrollably again.
The aide came back with a sedative and Janet quickly administered it to Sam.
Janet left Sam sleeping and went to find the Colonel.
Knocking on the Colonels door Janet announced herself and stepped through.
Jack was sitting behind his desk sealing an envelope.
Janet crunched through the broken glass on the floor warily.
"Colonel" she tentatively whispered.
"What happened here?"
Jack looked up and muttered under his breath.
Then he said "Janet how's Carter?"
"That's why I'm here sir. She is hysterical claiming that you're the father. I keep on telling her this could not be true but…."
"H'mmm well you and I know that there is no way I can be the father."
"Sir I sort of promised Sam I would test you just to be sure" Janet admitted.
Jack stood up abruptly "That's not needed Janet I'll fix up Carter."
"What how?"
"Not now Doc. Excuse me I have a letter to deliver".
Janet scurried back to the infirmary and worried about Sam did not see Daniel till she had bumped right into dislodging his glasses.
"Oh sorry Daniel" she flustered going red.
"Janet what's up what's the panic about? I was just kicked out of George's office when Jack came in. Is this about Sam? What's she got?"
"Daniel Stop. Breathe"
"Sam's gonna be ok"
"Colonel O'Neill is just apprising General Hammond of the situation…at least I think that's what he's doing." Mumbling the last few words as she stalked off.
Sam was dozing knocked about by the sedative Janet had given her.
Janet walked in and just stood observing her she stood that way for about 10 minutes.
She was thinking things through.
Sam somehow thought that Jack could be her baby's father.
Sam knew about the vasectomy.
Jack must have told her and for that subject to come up….
Jack came round the corner and nearly careened into Janet.
"Sorry doc, can I talk to the patient?"
He then continued walking taking permission for granted and then in front of Janet leaned over and gently kissed Sam on the lips.
"Wake up sleeping beauty time to complete this fairy tale"
"Huh Jack?" Sam whispered groggily.
Jack checked over his shoulder and saw Janet still standing there, abet with her mouth wide open.
"Janet could we have a minute?" He queried.
Janet just turned and walked back to her office.
Jack turned back to Sam who was looking more alert.
"Sir wha…"
"Sam will you marry me?"
"Jack we'll lose our jobs."
"Na just mine I've handed in my resignation effective immediately I'm retired."
"Oh no Jack not that" Sam cried.
