Speculating

'Do you have something to tell us?' said Daniel a little angrily. Both he and Janet glaring convincingly at the couple across from them.

'Eh? No?' said Jack tentatively.

They received no answer but an increased intensity in their eyes.

Sam sighed and glanced at Jack, signalling to him that she was going to admit defeat.

'How much did you hear?' she asked.

'Oh, enough.' Said Janet disapprovingly.

'Right.' Said Sam quietly, 'We should have spoken to you first.'

'I'm just disappointed that you couldn't trust us, did you think that we wouldn't find out?' Daniel's eyes trained on the bowed head of the Major and the defiant eyes of the Colonel.

'Hey what did you expect us to do?' Jack voice rumbled with a glace in Sam's direction, seeking her support in the matter.

'We expected you two, to be able to act like air force officers not teenagers!' said Janet.

Silence returned once again.

Neither of the air force officers could reply when faced with two rather angry people baring down on them and firing really quite reasonable points at them from all directions.

'So how long?' asked Sam.

'This morning.' Answered Daniel. And he stopped there not wanting them to know what he'd over heard in the parking lot that morning.

'This morning?' asked Jack unconvinced. 'Really? But the signs have been there for ages, I was sure…'

'Sure about what Jack?' replied Daniel defiantly.

'Forget it.'

'What did you think you were doing?' spoke Janet disapproval still present in her voice.

'Janet, I'm so sorry I should have spoken to you first before we started speculating.'

'Yeah…eh?' suddenly she seemed extremely confused.

'Speculating?' Janet and Daniel said in unison.

'Yeah, about you two.' Said Sam.

At this they looked even more confused and gasped ever so slightly.

'What did you think we were talking about?' asked Jack.

Suddenly it was Janet and Daniel that had guilty looks on their faces.
