A/N: This is an epilogue to You Can't Blame Yourself just was thinking about it. There is a good deal of sexual references, though nothing graphic, in this chapter. Again, tell me if you want more. I might actually explain how Vala ended up coming through the gate.

Daniel left Vala's room several hours later. He was hoping to escape unnoticed. His hope was in vain, Cameron and Teal'c were on him like hawks. He held up a hand to forestall their comments. "Don't say anything." He said.

"Colonel Mitchell and I were placing bets on if you…" Teal'c paused. "Scored." Teal'c pronounced the last word funny. It had clearing been Cameron's term.

"So Jackson… did you?" Cameron grinned.

"I wouldn't tell you if I did." Daniel snapped back.

"Really." Cameron wasn't convinced. "DENIAL!"

"I am not in denial." Daniel continued to protest his innocence.

Vala stepped out of the room. "Of course we had sex." She said, yawing. "That's why I'm trying to sleep right now."

Daniel tried to smile and push Vala back into the room. "There was just a little physical contact…."

"A LITTLE?" Vala asked, her voice incredulous. "That was single handedly some of the best sex I've had in a long time. It's no surprise they know, considering how much moaning you did the entire time."

Teal'c raised an eyebrow; he then turned the Cameron. "I believe Colonel Carter owes us both dinner."

"Hell yeah." Cameron replied. He grabbed his radio out of his pocket. "We win Sam."

"What?" Sam asked through the radio.

"Remember, we bet that Daniel would 'score'. Well, by Vala's admission, he did. You owe Teal'c and me dinner."

"You do realize an entire group of scientists just overheard that exchange."

"Really?" Cameron couldn't help but snicker.

Vala flashed a toothy grin. "That was good."

"Indeed." Teal'c replied. "Should we not leave them alone now Colonel Mitchell?"

"Yep." Cameron turned around. "See you later."

After Teal'c and Cameron had left, Daniel turned to Vala. "Did you have to do that?"

"If you hadn't been arguing outside my room, maybe I would've have intervened." Vala snapped back. She placed her arms around his neck. "Besides, I really did have a good time."
"Oh no, not again." Daniel tried to protest.

"Are you kidding?" Vala asked as she pulled him back in the room. She had him, there was no way around it. It was time for another few hours of trouble making.

"How long do you think it'll take him to admit it?" Cameron asked Teal'c as they walked through the halls.

"Daniel Jackson is a proud individual." Teal'c stated. "I do not believe he will admit it easily."

"I give him a couple of days, maybe a week at the latest. Where should we cash in tonight?"

"I believe we should invite Daniel Jackson and Vala Malduran to come with us. We are profiting off of them."

"Not to mention, it keeps Sam paying for this bet."

Teal'c raised an eyebrow and cast a curious look at Cameron.

"What?" Cameron asked, none too serious.
