Previously on Stargate SG-1...

Jacob pursued them carefully. He sighed, "He loves her doesn't he?"

"I think so"

He sighed again "George, what's going to happen?"

"I don't know"

Jacob looked downcast then brightened up "How many days were they on the planet?"

"12 or so"

"Then we have a full days worth of briefing!"

"That we do... that we do..."

The two General's rubbed their hands evilly and sat to wait for the return of SG-1 and assorted personnel to the torture- err Briefing Room...

Now... the continuation!

Jack slid into the Briefing room aware he was late. He had stayed later in the commissary, sampling all the pies. He had missed pie. Pie was good...

"Colonel O'Neill. So glad you could join us"

Carter gave him a small smile as he blushed. "Sorry General, I was... unavoidably detained."

"I see. Take a seat."

Jack quickly sat down next to Carter and tried to look nonchalant.

"What'd I miss?"

"We were just waiting for you to finish your last day on P4X-234"

"The last FULL day" Jack corrected. "We left on the 13th day 'round lunch I think..." he looked over at Carter who nodded.

"Very well. Begin"

Jack fidgeted "Uhh, sir to be honest, I don't remember much"

"I beg your pardon?"

"The Colonel was unusually tired the next day," Carter said refusing to look at anyone.

Teal'c schooled his features. Indeed he had not...

"All right Major, you begin"

"I..." she stopped "Well..."

"Sam?" Jacob questioned.

"I don't..."

"You don't remember either." Hammond finished.

"Yes sir"

"What the heck did you guys do?" Jacob demanded.

"You didn't!" Janet and Daniel cried simultaneously.

"Didn't what?" they shot back. (Jack and Sam)

"Have..."

"NO!"

Everyone surveyed them suspiciously.

"Sir, we just were... tired." Carter said earnestly.

Jacob shrugged.

"All right Teal'c. You go"

"Very well. I awoke at half past five. I went for a brief walk and hurried back. As we had only cleaned up one of our rooms after the party, we had all shared it."

"It?" Daniel asked only half paying attention to him as Janet was whispering in his ear again.

"The room. We all shared it"

"Right..."

"On my return, Thor paid us a visit..."

------

Teal'c walked silently into 'his' bedroom and began dressing. After today, the only clothes he had remaining would be the uniform that Stargate Command provided them with. The majority of his clothes had been ruined by various circumstances. He could run around in his swimming trucks he supposed but that would not be benefiting to a Jaffa.

As he heard a soft noise, he turned to see Major Carter roll off her bed; right next to O'Neill's. Jack automatically opened his arms and she rolled into them. Both sound asleep.

He permitted himself a small smile and then...

With the peculiar sound and the bright light, a skinny Asgard appeared.

"Greetings Teal'c"

"Thor!"

The alien turned slowly to see Carter and Jack pushing each other away and standing up. Carter was only wearing her t-shirt and panties so she was tying a blanket around her, sarong style.

"O'Neill. Major Carter. I have come to tell you that you may return home tomorrow"

"Really?" they asked.

"Yes."

To Thor's surprise, a flicker of disappointment rushed across their faces then disappeared.

"Oh. Thanks" Carter said flatly.

"Yeah. Kind of you to drop by." Jack added.

Teal'c gave Thor a questioning glance. "I thought it was not going to happen for two more days," he said in a low voice.

"We could not keep beaming things away; they were getting suspicious." Thor said apologetically.

"Very well. You have done them a great favor Thor and I thank you."

Thor turned to look at the two humans who were bickering over what looked to be a pillow. "I am glad to hear it"

Teal'c watched the alien go with a slight sigh. They must return tomorrow, he had to get O'Neill to act. Soon.

----------

"Teal'c"

He looked over at the questioner, his eyebrows raised.

"What'd he want?" Paul Davis prompted.

"He merely wished to tell us that we could return home the following day."

"How did he know?" George asked curiously.

Jacob, watching Teal'c closely, noticed his squirm slightly. "I am not sure." Teal'c said finally.

Jacob snorted.

Sam looked up at her father's undignified report. "Dad, Teal'c is telling the truth, how would he know?" she said genuinely curious.

Jacob shrugged and continued to study the Jaffa.

"After his visit. I noted the time was nearly eight o'clock. I prepared myself a meal and then sat down to watch television."

"I see."

"Dad! Stop saying that!"

Jack chuckled. "Oh come on, you're still not mad about THAT are you Carter?"

She glared at him and rubbed her nails. "Of course not sir. Why would I care that I was A. Bothered out of my life for seven hours by my two best friends and B. Forced to endure a makeover and C. -"

"Hey, hey, hey" Jack protested, "You did makeovers on us!"

"I DIDN'T TIE YOU UP!"

"Cease your arguing immediately before you are court marshaled." Teal'c advised in a low tone.

The two looked up startled. They had obviously forgotten that other people in the room; not that it really mattered…

"Explain what just happened Teal'c."

"Well, I turned off the television set and began my kel'no'reeming, O'Neill forced me out of it to consider his evil plot.

"And that was?"

Teal'c looked at him as if it was extremely obvious. "The makeover"

------------

Carter vaguely registered the fact that Jack had slipped away. With a slight moan, she fell back asleep.

-

"Teal'c?"

"O'Neill. I am busy"

"Come on… It'll be fun."

"You wish me to die before I can set my affairs in order? I thought you liked me O'Neill!"

"I do, but this'd be SO fun!"

Teal'c secretly thought he'd prefer to face Apophis himself. He knew women better then O'Neill appeared too. They didn't forget easily.

"Come on T. We're LEAVING tomorrow."

"I am aware."

Jack sighed, "Come on. One last laugh."

Teal'c barely nodded. "Very well"

-

Carter found her arms seized. She didn't have time to scream when she smelled a familiar, suspicious smell.

"NAIL POLISH?" she yipped.

"Yep!" Jack said cheerily. "We're giving you a makeover!"

She stopped struggling. "What?"

He laughed evilly as he showed her the lipstick, makeup, clothes and... camera.

"SIR!"

------------

Sam was glaring at Jack as she waved her nails at him. Daniel for the first time noticed them.

"Sparkly pink?"

Sam drew her hand back but not before her dad captured her left hand.

"Red, white and blue?" he asked curiously.

"I also added the Earth symbol." Teal'c said with a smile.

Carter ignored both of them and tugged her hand away from her father. She darted a quick look over at Teal'c who she KNEW had pictures. She strongly suspected her CO had some too... her suspicions were confirmed when he patted his pocket smugly.

She frowned but remained silent knowing she could have her revenge. Later.

-------

"Go try these on"

Carter eyed the clothes Jack offered. "Sir, no!"

"Come on…"

She snatched the clothes and stormed into the bathroom. Minutes later, she immerged.

"Better… sir?"

Jack stifled a laugh.

Carter was wearing a blue dress and sparkly glitter sandals. On her head was perched a tiara.

"Sir, this is ridiculous"

"Carter, you look great" Jack said sincerely.

"This reminds me way too much of that awful dress I had to wear on Simarka." She complained.

Jack and Teal'c whipped out their camera and snapped a shot. Carter grinned. "Colonel's turn!"

Before Jack knew what hit him, he was in the chair being made over.

-- --

"May I see the pictures?" Hammond asked holding out his hand.

"Pictures?" they all asked.

"I assume you took some"

"Yes, but-" at the look they got, they immediately handed over their pictures. The two General's leaned over and began to laugh.

The two humans scowled while Teal'c remained his impassive self.

"What happened after the makeovers?" Daniel asked after the General's were done laughing over the pictures.

"We ate"

-- --

Sam slowly chewed her waffle.

"Come on Carter, you're not still MAD at me are you?"

She shook her head.

"What is it then?"

"I don't want to go," she admitted softly. "I don't"

"Oh come on, surely you miss your lab…"

"No sir, I really don't"

"That's gotta be a first"

Carter looked around her. They were sitting on the porch having brunch. "I guess" she shrugged "You?"

"I miss beer. Can't find any of those boxes we had"

"I hid one" Carter muttered looking over at the stairs. Teal'c had cleaned them off.

"So what are we doing with all the extra stuff?" Jack asked curiously.

"We're sending all the food supplies we don't need to 977-1E5."

"That primitive cultures whose crops were burned?"

"Yes sir"

"Sweet"

Silence…

"When we going?"

She looked up "As soon as it's ready"

He groaned, "Might as well get packing"

She nodded and shoved the rest of her waffle in her mouth.

2 hours later,

SG-1 returned through the gate feeling pretty happy. The inhabitants had been thrilled with the food and after making a long acceptation speech; they invited them to a little get together. They had stayed for a while then Jack's knees began acting up. With that, they returned home and began cleaning the house.

-- --

"We sent the leftover food and clothes over to that burned out planet. They seemed pretty grateful."

"Good idea Jack" Hammond said approvingly.

"It was Carter's sir."

Hammond nodded. "Good work Major"

She blushed. "Thank you sir"

"Then what?" Davis asked.

"We cleaned the house. All the stuff we weren't going to use we took to the Stargate and sent it to our various allies."

--- ---

"Carter!"

She looked up "Sir, we don't need the television."

"Who else is going to use it?" He demanded. "Leave it here, maybe Hammond will want to use this place as a off world observatory or something."

Carter nodded. "It looks so empty" she muttered.

It did. The kitchen only contained half a dozen plates and the same about of bowls, cups and silverware, the little stove with its six pans and the mini refrigerator/freezer. The bedrooms each only had a mattress and a chair. The living room had the most with two couches, an armchair and the TV with the videos in a box next to it. The only remaining furniture were the tables and chairs scattered throughout the house.

Jack nodded. "I can't believe how much stuff we had. It must have hours to move all those boxes down there."

Carter peeked into the huge box of food left for them to eat. "What do you all want for dinner?" she called.

Teal'c, who had just returned from lugging the last of the boxes to the Stargate, shook his head. "I do not care Major Carter"

"I'm not hungry" Jack said.

"Neither am I"

Carter dropped the lid down. "Me three"

"What is the matter Major Carter?"

"I'm going to miss this place," she said without looking at him.

"As am I. It has been a most enjoyable week"

"Yeah" she replied looking over at the lake.

Jack studied her. Her hair was ruffled from where she had run her hands through her hair, her slacks dusty and her black t-shirt as well. She looked peaceful- for Carter. She was looking at the lake rather wistfully.

"Hey... does anyone want to go get skiing one more time?" he asked.

"We only have two skis," she reminded him.

"I do not wish to go." Teal'c said looking at the sunset. "You should hurry. It is getting dark."

"It's only 5:00 T"

"I am aware O'Neill"

He shrugged "Carter?"

She hesitated then nodded. "I'd love too sir"

Teal'c handed them both sweatshirts. "It will be chilly O'Neill"

They pulled them over their heads then dashed off with quick good byes. Teal'c watched them go then hurried over to the box of food.

--------

"We went jet skiing, came home and ate, played a few games, and then hit the sack"

The two General's sighed. "Jack..." George said "You KNOW I don't accept that"

Davis stole his notes back and added then to the dozen sheets he had already had compiled. Jacob frowned at him.

"More descriptive?"

"Yes Jack"

"Well..."

------

The two were half way across the lake before they stopped and simultaneously laughed.

It was just so nice! The weather perfect, the sunset beautiful…

"It's lovely isn't it?" Jack said quietly looking at it.

She nodded.

-

Teal'c opened the freezer and with a furtive glance around, pulled out the last tub of chocolate ice cream and slowly began eating it.

-

After thirty minutes of talking, the two headed back, laughing and talking.

-

Teal'c heard the skis pull up and quickly stuffed the ice cream back into freezer. He then hurried into his bedroom and began pursuing the first (ok, the ONLY) book he saw.

-----------

"Carter... flipped out when we got home."

"Why?" Jacob demanded.

"Teal'c ate most of her ice cream"

"Oh ho" Jacob laughed.

Teal'c gave Jacob an annoyed glance.

"She chased him around the house yelling something in some weird language"

"Goa'uld" Carter muttered. "I can remember a few words from Jolinar."

Jacob was doubled over.

"He finally got on his knees and BEGGED her to forgive him."

Daniel snickered.

Jack continued "She forgave him- after he promised torestock her refrigerator"

Sam moaned. Justwhat she wanted the General to hear. Boy, if she was still Majorafter this-

She suddenly grinned. This would knock her CO down a notch.

---------

"No, I can't tell you the rules sir"

Teal'c had quickly caught on but Jack, much to his frustration, still hadn't.

She handed him a card and said "Queen of Spades"

"So, on Queens, you say the suit and rank?"

She handed him a card.

"What?"

She handed him another card.

Teal'c requested a timeout then explained. "You may not talk O'Neill"

"Oh."

-------------

"Well, I wasn't the one who threw a tantrum because I didn't understand a game" she shot back.

"Hey!" Jack protested. "That game is evil!"

"Didn't you break a mug... sir?"

"Carter..." he began warningly.

She laughed.

"Can you guys just go to bed and begin with Day 13?" Daniel asked impatiently.

Jack and Sam exchanged glances.

--------

Teal'c picked up the cards while Jack cleaned up his mug mess. Carter reclined on the couch, half asleep. Jack eyed her thoughtfully then hurried into the kitchen. A second later, he immerged with something clenched in his hand. He tip toed over to Carter and with a swift move, dropped it down her back then ran with an angry female after him. Teal'c merely smiled and went to make sure the gate had not been set up early.

When he returned an hour later, he found a cozy Sam and Jack curled up in the couch. Her head buried in his lap and his fingers entwined in her hair. Both were sound asleep. He gently tucked a blanket around their damp forms and then went to his kel'no'reeming.

-------

The two officers recalled their thoughts. "Of course" Jack said obligingly "Day 13…"

"WAIT!" Janet cried. "Didn't you have THE water figh-"?

"J A N E T!" Carter wailed.

"Do tell…" Daniel said with a smirk, "I'd like to know more"

"I think I'll just go to day-"

"I think not" Hammond said, "Water fight?"

Carter sighed. "We tossed water at each other, that's it."

George knew he wouldn't get much more out of her. He'd pump Janet for more information later.

"All right, last day…" Jack began.

Hmm... did you like it?

Only one (half) day left...

So, like it or not, PLEASE review!
