Chapter 12 - Romeo, Romeo
"Love is a smoke raised with the fume of sighs. Being purged, a fire sparkling in lover's eyes. Being vex'd, a sea nourish'd with lover's tears. What is it else? a madness most discreet, A chocking gall and a preserving sweet."
Jack stared at Sam as he recited the words of Shakespeare's Romeo for the school production of Romeo and Juliet.
"Excellent Jack"
The drama teacher stood up and clapped. Sam smiled as Jack bowed.
"Sam, would you like to take your place on the stage?"
"Sure"
Sam got up off her chair and walked up to the stage sharing a brief glance with Jack
"When you're ready"
Sam took a deep breath.
"O serpent heart, hid with a flow'ring face! Did ever dragon keep so fair a cave? Beautiful tyrant! fiend angelical! Dove-feathered raven! wolvish-ravening lamb! Despised substance of divinest show! Just opposite to what thou justly seem'st- A damned saint, an honorable villain!
O nature, what hadst thou to do in hell When thou didst bower the spirit of a fiend In mortal paradise of such sweet flesh?
Was ever book containing such vile matter So fairly bound? O, that deceit should dwell In such a gorgeous place!"
(In The Hallway)
Janet pinned her ears to the hall door as the rest of the guys waited in suspense.
"Well...?"
"Teal'c i wont be able to hear if you don't stop whining."
Janet went back to concentrating on what was going on.
"Sam's just finished her speech."
(In The Hall)
"I think the both of you have the perfect chemistry to take on Romeo and Juliet."
Jack smiled.
"Oh we certainly have that"
Sam coughed at the comment and giggling could be heard coming from outside the door.
"Well, i want you to come back on wednesday so we could do a scene with the two of you together."
Sam nodded.
"I'll be there."
Just as the drama teacher went to say something else Daniel and Ferreti fell through the door.
"Ummm...Hi guys. Would you believe that we were...umm...we were.."
"Just admiring the fine craft on the door handles. As we bent down for a better look the door just flew open."
"Yeah flew open."
Sam laughed and Jack just stared blankly at them.
"Door handles. You've been out there the last hour and all you could come up with is door handles?"
Ferreti shrugged as Daniel went slightly red.
"Mr.Ferreti! Mr.Jackson! Will you please get out!"
"Yes mam!"
Ferreti and Daniel ran out of the room if any teacher could scare them it was Miss.Weir. Shortly after Jack and Sam walked out.
"Oh Romeo"
Kawalsky collapsed in Jack's arms.
"Get lost Charlie."
Jack chucked Kawalsky into the arms of Ferreti.
"You don't want me. Im hurt."
Kawalsky buried his head in Ferreti's t-shirt.
"That's it man. You let it all out."
Graham and his cronies came around the corner.
"Graham. What are you doing down here?"
"Well i heard that you were auditioning and i wanted to see how you did"
"I did fine."
"Also i wanted to talk about car arrangements for the prom. I was thinking of hiring a limo and me and you can go and Makepeace and Janet can join us."
Daniel looked at Makepeace then at Janet.
"Actually Graham im not going with Makepeace. I've already got a date."
Makepeace stepped out of Graham's shadow.
"Who?"
"Im going with Daniel"
Janet smiled at Daniel.
"Him! You're going with him?"
"Yes!"
Makepeace turned to Sam.
"You knew about this. You knew and you didn't tell me. You bitch!"
"Hey chill man. Don't take it out on Sam."
"Graham, she knew about this and she didn't tell me and you for a matter of a fact. She's making us look like idiots."
Sam opened her mouth ready to defend herself but Graham blocked her.
"Ok Man. She was wrong for not telling you about Janet and Daniel and very wrong for not telling me about it but im sure she's realised her mistakes and is willing to apologise."
Graham turned to Sam.
"You know what? I did know about Janet and Daniel and i enjoyed making you look the idiot cause no girl in their right mind would date a thug like you."
Makepeace moved closer to Sam but Graham pushed him back.
"And you are no better than him."
Sam pushed Graham out of the way and walked out of the school doors.
"Sam!"
Janet ran after her.
"You really are a prick Graham."
Jack practically spat at him and walked away closely followed by Teal'c, Kawalsky, Ferreti and Daniel.
(Anise' Flat)
Anise flicked through the phonebook.
"No,No,No, Yes!"
She picked up the phone and dialled a number.
"Hello is that Jonas Hansen?"
"Yes. Who is this?"
"My name is Anise and i believe you know a Samantha Carter"
The phone went quiet.
"Hello?"
"What do you want?"
"Sam has something i want and i need her distracted"
"What's in it for me?"
"Anything you want"
Jonas laughed on the other end of the phone.
"Revenge. I want revenge"
(Sam's house)
"I mean who the hell does he think he is?"
Sam punched fiercely at the punchbag.
"Sam calm down before you burst a blood vessel."
Sam stopped attacking her punchbag and fell down next to Janet.
"He made me feel embarrassed. I hate people who think they can speak for me when i have a perfectly good voice of my own."
Sam pulled her gloves off and chucked them on the floor.
"How are you and Daniel going?"
Janet smiled.
"We're going on a date tomorrow."
"Sweet."
"Hey, why don't you come?"
"Im not gonna spoil your date."
"You wont. If anything you'll improve it. Teal'c invited himself and Jack along."
Sam laughed.
"Sam can you take the dog for a walk?"
"Yes!"
Sam and Janet walked out of the basement and into the livingroom.
"Right go and make yourself comfy in my room and i'll go take the dog for a walk."
Janet walked up to Sam's room whilst Sam stuck the lead on Libby and took her out ot her usual spot.
(Park)
"Libby don't go far."
Sam watched as her labrador went running off into the dark tree-filled area of the park. Sam sat on a bench whilst waiting for Libby to return. Sam watched as the figure of Libby ran in and out of the trees but as soon as she couldn't see Libby's figure, Sam got to her feet and went into the trees.
"Libby. Come on Libby it's too late to muck about"
Sam stopped walking when she heard some rustling coming from the bushes. She looked behind her and when satisfied nothing was there she continued to walk but bumped into a dark figure.
"Oh sor....Jonas!"
"Love is a smoke raised with the fume of sighs. Being purged, a fire sparkling in lover's eyes. Being vex'd, a sea nourish'd with lover's tears. What is it else? a madness most discreet, A chocking gall and a preserving sweet."
