Ok now on with the show...err the fic.  Enjoy!! .

Major John Sheppard stood outside watching as the plane landed. He grinned, "Rach is here." He said to himself. He hadn't seen her in several months. They had met at the Pentagon a little over a year ago, when he worked there. They had quickly gotten close and about eight months after meeting started dating. Then he had been transferred out to a new base. It had killed him to leave her because it broke her heart, but he promised her that they would keep in touch, and he kept that promise. That had been several months ago and know she was coming to the SGC. Course now he was with Atlantis, but that was ok because he was able to come back since they found a way to do that, and she knew that. He shock himself out of his thoughts and looked at the plane again, to see her getting off the plane.

He started walking towards he and when he got a little closer he stopped, "Hey there girl." He called.

She looked at him "John?" She asked.

"The one and only." He said smiling at her.

She squealed and ran to him dropping her bag and jumping into his arms. He laughed and twirled her around, and then put her down.

She looked at him, "I thought you were in Atlantis, and couldn't get back cause of how much energy it took just to get there?" She asked confused.

"Well I am most of the time but we found what we needed so that we could get home when we wanted to, or needed to. When Hammond heard that you were on your way I had just gotten there. He told me that he wanted to surprise Daniel, so he couldn't have him come pick you up, and he didn't want someone you didn't know to pick you, and at some point he found out that we were close so he asked me to pick you up. So here I am." He said kissing her nose.

She grinned "That's cool" She said.

"Yea." He said and grinned. "So you ready to go?"

"Yea." She said.

"Alright," He said bending down and getting her bag, "Let's go, we have a long drive back."

"Ok." She said, "How long is it to the SGC?" She asked.

"About an hour or so," He told her.

"Ok." She said yawning.

"You tired?" He asked wrapping an arm around her.

"Yea, long but exciting day," She said laying her head on his shoulder.

"Well when we get to the truck you can go to sleep ok? Hammond wants to talk to you when we get there, and depending on when you get done talking to him, you may get to see Daniel." He told her.

"Sleep sounds good." She said smiling at him.

He laughed and opened the door to his truck for her putting her back in the back. He then helped her up into the truck and closed the door and walked around to the other side and got in. About five minutes later they were on the road and she was leaning against him asleep. He smiled, he sure had missed her the last few months.

about an hour later

That was how they arrived at the base an hour later, him driving silently and her sleeping on his shoulder. He parked, turned the truck off and looked down at her. He hated to wake her up, she looked so peaceful, and he knew that she was tired. But Hammond wanted to see her, so he had to wake her up.

"Rach wake up little bit. We're here." He said moving a little so he could wrap his arm around her.

She just groaned and snuggled into his chest. He smiled and bent his head down and kissed her forehead, "You can go back to sleep after you talk to Hammond, but right now you need to wake up so that you can go talk to him." He told her gently. "I promise unless you want to see your big brother afterwards that I'll take you to your quarters so that you can go to bed."

She opened her eyes and looked at him with big blue eyes and grinned, "Am I dreaming?"

"No your not dreaming, your at the point that you have worked for so hard for the past several years. You made it Rachel, your dreams come true. I'm proud of you little bit." He said kissing her forehead again.

She grinned and slowly set up, "Ok, I'm awake now." She said.

He smiled and got out of the truck, walked around and opened her door for her. He reached up and helped her out of the truck, then got her bag. He shut the door and wrapped his arm around her, "Ready."

"Yea." She said happily.

"Well then let's go." He said and they started their way towards the elevator.

About five minutes later they were in arriving at General Hammond's office and John knocked.

"Come in." Hammond called.

John dropped his arm from around her and lightly pushed her into office, him followed her close behind.

"Hey General, Little Jackson is here." He said grinning broadly at the General and Rachel.

"Hello Captain Jackson, I'm glad you're here." He said smiling at her.

"Hello Sir, I'm happy to be her as well." She replied.

"That's good. Now I know your tired, so I give you a choice, I'm not going to ask you any questions your CO answered my questions. But my question is now, you look tired, do you want to see you brother now? Or wait tell tomarrow when you have had a good night sleep?" He asked.

"Um I umm.. I want to see Danny." She said finally making her decision.

"Very well, Major, take the Captain to see her brother." He said to John.

"Yes sir." John said and led her out of the office and to Daniels lab. He turned to her and grinned.

"Stay here for a minute, ok?" He said kissing her on the check.

"Ok." She said.

He smiled and knocked on the door, "Hey Danny you in there?"

"Yea John, come on in." He called.

John walked in and leaned against the door, and Daniel looked at him. "Whatcha want John."

"There is someone out in the hall to see you. But she's pretty tired so she can't stay here long." John told him.

"Ok who is it?" Daniel asked.

John turned and stuck his head out the door, "Come on in little bit."

A few seconds later Rachel walked in and smiled at Daniel. "Hey Danny."

"RACHEL!!!!!!!" Daniel said in shock.

Ok well that's it for the moment, I'll try to have some more up tomorrow. Please review and I'll talk to you later. Oh and one more thing, for this fic, Jack is still with Sg1 and Hammond is still the General. Just thought I'd let you know. Talk to you later.
