Thank you: You all rock!

Sam jumped a little bit. "Shh!" She whispered.

"Why are we being so quiet?" Carter asked following her.

Sam pointed to a picnic table. Two dark men and several other men surrounded one man- Colonel Jack O'Neill.

And now the continuation...

"Sir?" Carter asked surprised.

Jack's head snapped up. "Carter?" He asked surprised. "What the hell are you doing here?"

Carter shrugged, figuring that 'eating ice cream here' would probably sound weird, considering that it was after midnight.

"You guys had to drag her in?" Jack was saying.

"Into what?"

"Nothing," Jack mumbled.

"Daniel?" She asked turning to him.

Daniel grinned. "What makes you think I'm Daniel?"

"You still have coffee stain on your shirt."

"I washed them off," He began looking down. He scowled. "Funny Sam."

She giggled.

"No giggling Carter," Jack said automatically.

"Why is that?" John asked, genuinely curious.

"The Colonel ordered me not too," She explained.

Dan rolled his eyes. "Hate to break up this... party… but we have somewhere to go," He said pointedly, looking at his watch

"Right," John began. "Is everything ready?"

Sam looked over her shoulder. A few moments later, there were two flashes of light.

"Yep."

He leaned over and kissed her. "I love you," He whispered.

"You two, stop it," Dan scolded. "Let's go."

Carter and Jack automatically headed for the car.

The two Teal'c grabbed a hold of them. "We must detain you until the others have reached the car," one of them explained.

Carter shrugged and waited patiently.

The Daniel's, John and Sam had reached the car. They started.

"NOW, TEAL'C'S!"

The two men gently pushed them onto the ground and dashed for the car. Too late did Carter and Jack see their plan.

"GUYS!" Jack howled as the car drove off.

"Sir, they can't hear you."

He sighed, "I'm sorry Carter."

"For what, sir?" She asked then continued. "Sir, I think we better eat this before it melts."

"What melts?"

She held up the ice chest. "Ice cream, sir."

"Ahh," He looked around. "Let's go over there, I see a light."

She nodded in agreement.

"So, what did Sam do with ya?"

"She took me shopping."

"For what?"

"A dress."

Jack nodded. "What color?" He asked a few moments later.

"Surprise, sir."

He nodded.

"What the-"

A picnic table was covered with a white tablecloth and a few candles. Two bowls and spoons lay in the middle along with a note. Carter grabbed it.

Sam and Jack
Since you won't take the steps, we will. Gopher Park is surrounded by forests for ten miles. It gets cold after two... We'll stop by around then... if you two have talked, we'll take you home, if not, enjoy your night. TALK GUYS!
Love,
Sam, John, Dan, TC, Teal'c, Daniel, and Janet.

She passed the note over to Jack.

A moment later, he crumpled it and tossed it into park trashcan.

"What time is it now, Carter?"

She checked her watch. "12:45"

"75 minutes," He mused. "Hungry?"

She opened the bag. "Chocolate, coffee and sherbet."

"Chocolate," They both agreed.

Jack stole the cartoon. "Carter, you sit, and I'll serve."

She sat down, not used to being waited on.

"How Pete?" Jack asked casually.

Okay... smooth Jack, just ask me!

"I have no idea."

His hand paused. "Haven't seen him recently?"

"Nope."

Sam... Have something to tell me?

"Everything okay between you two?" He asked passing her a bowl.

"Yeah, now."

I'm not lying... I'm not seeing him, so it's okay...

Jack winced but quickly recovered. "Back together?" He asked dropping a huge clop of chocolate in his bowl.

"Sir?"

Jack looked up. "Daniel said that uh- oh never mind."

She took pity on him. "I'm not seeing him, sir." She almost laughed at his obvious relief.

"Really? Cool," He looked up. "I mean, are you okay? shouldn't you be in.. something?"

She laughed, "I'm fine sir."

"Really?"

"Yeah."

He put the lid on the ice cream and sat it on the ground. "Carter?"

She looked up and smiled. "Sir?"

"What happened to us?"

She paused. "I don't know," She admitted softly.

He sighed. "Carter?"

"Sir?"

"I love you."

Carter stared at him disbelievingly. "What? Did you just say? What? After seven years- And- Everything, I've gone through for you! There was Kynthia and Laira and-"

"And you had Narim and Martouf and Orlin. There was Joe and Jonas-"

"Well, I wasn't one said I wanted to stay right after I was rescued!"

The two glared at each other.

A candle being knocked over broke the mood. They reached down to get only to have their lips end up about an inch apart.

"Jack?" Carter whispered.

"What?"

"I'm scared."

"Me too."

He kissed her. It was long and passionate but was broken by a the sound of a throat being cleared.

"Hey guys, um, it's two A.M, they want to know if-"

Jack and Carter slowly sat up.

"DANIEL," They both began.

Daniel took a step back. "I didn't-"

They grabbed the bowls and the 'chest." Let's go," Jack cried blowing out the candles. And in the dark they walked back to the car, Jack and Carter thinking up ways to torture Daniel on their return...
