SG-1 waited in the gate room for the gate to activate. General Hammond was sure to have a couple more airmen in the gate room than usual, just because he knew his friend Jacob very well.

Soon enough, the gate went through its usual routine, and kawooshed right before SG-1's eyes.

Jack was nervous; Teal'c had been enlisted as protection when Jacob tries to 'kill' Jack. Sam assured Jack and Hammond that wouldn't happen, but Hammond wasn't as sure as Sam was. But Sam was pregnant, and pregnant women are always right.

"Receiving Tok'ra IDC, sir. Opening the iris."

The iris opened and Jacob Carter stepped through the Stargate. When he saw Sam his eyebrow rose in the fashion of Teal'c. "Sam."

"Dad."

"Are you…?"

She nodded.

"Pete?"

"No."

Jack gave a nervous cough.

"As you can see we have a lot to discuss." General Hammond said.

"No kidding." Nevertheless, he pulled Sam into a hug, "It's good to see you, Sam."

"You're not mad?"

"No… Should I be?"

Jack and Hammond smiled. "I told you guys." Sam said.

"What?"

"Nothing, Dad, trust me. It's nothing."

"So should we get to work on this whole 'Ashrak' thing?"

"Good idea." Daniel said.

"So what do we know about this Ashrak?"

"Not much. It took Pete as a host because it would get him close to me. It wasn't counting on me leaving him, so when he tried to kill Gina…"

"He got careless. The Goa'uld still think we're idiots, so the Ashrak probably wasn't expecting us to find him until it was too late and Sam was already dead."

"What if Sam isn't the target? I mean, I'm not blaming you Jake, but you are a Tok'ra…" Jack said.

"It would make sense." Selmak said.

"So it's after one of you two."

"Actually, it's probably both of us, I mean let's face it with both of us dead…"

"They could come up with something they knew only Sam or Selmak would figure out…"

"And wipe us both out for good." Jacob said.

"Which system lord do we believe is responsible?" General Hammond asked.

"We're not sure. It might not even be a system lord…" Sam said.

"Get the job done, people. I want that Ashrak dead."

"Yes, sir."

"We'll do our best, sir." Sam replied.

"I know you will. Dismissed."

Jacob and Jack walked down the hall in silence, the Jacob piped up.

"So, Jack… Are you going to marry her or what?"

Jack coughed, "Don't you think it's a little early for that?"

"Is it? I mean, she's pregnant with your child…"

"Children, Jacob, children. Sam is pregnant with twins."

"So are you going to or what?"

"I've been thinking about it for the past week now… I'm just not sure what to say to her… Nothing seems like it's enough."

"I'm sure coming from you, whatever you pick will be enough. And if she does say yes… And I doubt very much she wouldn't… This," He said pulling out his dog tags from his Tok'ra uniform, revealing a gold wedding band attached to the chain. "Should be her wedding band. It was her mother's."

"Wow… It's perfect for her… Thanks." Jack snapped off his own dog tags and slid the ring on the chain. He put them back on and tucked them into his shirt. The two men continued their walk down the hall.

"So you're not mad?" Jack asked.

"No."

"Not even a little?"

"No… I was pretty much expecting it, and plus, Selmak bet Siler 350 bucks it would happen… And did I mention it was my money?"

Jack snorted. "I can't believe you bet on your own daughter's love life."

"Hey! I didn't do it, it was Selmak!"

"That's right, blame it on the snake."

Jack and Jacob continued down the corridors of the SGC. Still debating weather or not Selmak really had bet on Sam's love life.
