Season 8

Disclaimer- Sorry none of it's mine

A/– Thank you for all of the reviews. Answer to Lea Marie- no I haven't really considered getting a beta reader( blonde question but- what do they really do? I've heard people talk about them but no ones really explained it)

Anyway, on with the next chapter. OH and sorry about the spelling mistakes I made and will continue to make( I couldn't spell if my life depended on it)

Walking cautiously through the corridors of the SGC, Sam was doing her best to avoid anyone and everyone in the halls. Luckily, it was still extremely early, so there were less people around than normal. After managing to avoid anyone spotting her 'interesting' apparel, Sam finally made it the her lab.

She had only managed to boot up her computer and check a few e-mails when the intercom crackled to life. "Colonel Carter to the embarkation room. Colonel Carter to the embarkation room"

Glaring at the speaker box, Sam cursed under her breath. The General and the Rithomian representatives were due to arrive any minute, and SG1 was supposed to be there to greet them. It had been crazy to think see could avoid everyone all day, but she could hope, right?

Taking a deep, calming breath, Sam forced herself to get up and head toward the gate room. Facing the System Lords would be easier than what she was about to do.

The entire gate room fell into an eerie silence as Sam walked over wear Daniel and Teal'c stood in front of the gate. Sam stood by them quietly, trying to stop herself from turning around and running right back out of the gate room. Daniel wasn't helping. He took one look at Sam and started to turn red himself as he tried not to burst out laughing, and Teal'c was ,well, Teal'c was just being Teal'c.

"That is a very flattering outfit Colonel Carter," Teal'c informed Sam after a few seconds obviously trying to break the uncomfortable silence. "Thanks, Teal'c" Sam replied softly as she tried unsuccessfully to keep from turning even redder.

After a few more seconds of awkward silence, the chevrons on the gate started to light up. When the wormhole finally engaged, General O'Neill and the Rithomians came through.

As General O'Neill came walking down the ramp, he was already sporting that trademark O'Neill smirk. As he walked past Sam, he paused for a second, looked her up and down and then commented, "Nice outfit Carter." With that he was gone, showing the Rithomians the way to their VIP quarters.

Sam stood there for a moment, as red as a tomato, trying to figure out what had just happened. Then she realized something. "Daniel was it just me, or was the General not that surprised by my outfit?"

Daniel just grinned and started to walk way but right as he reached the other side of the gate room, he threw back over his shoulder, " Who do you think got Cassie to switch your clothes, Sam?"
