Chapter 64

A/N: Thank you for all the wonderful reviews. The show ain't over… but there might be a surprise in the last chapter. Of course, I've just finished Chapter 75, so we've got a while to go yet ;) Enjoy

Sam's POV

"They're both stubborn as mules Sam. What did ya expect?"

"I don't know. But when I go for my check up, I'm going to remind her of that conversation. I can't believe my best friend refusing to believe me like that."

"C'mon Sam, it is pretty… out there."

"Jack, she was holding her own son for well over half an hour, and you're telling me she didn't feel it? The second I saw our… I was drawn to her. I could feel her. Like the way I feel you. I didn't recognise what it was at first, and I was concentrating on their son, but…"

"Me too."

"Then why is she being so pig-headed? This is the kind of scepticism I'd expect from… Well, you, actually." I admit sheepishly.

"Sam, when I see a girl who looks the spitting image of her half brother, with your eyes… kinda hard to be a non-believer."

"Exactly. And that boy looks like his father. Right down to the sleepy look in his eyes."

"Let's do a Daniel, try walking in their shoes for a minute. So we're not married. We're both hurting because we want to be together."

"Sounds familiar." I quip gently.

"There's a constant fizzing in the back of our brains that reminds us that the other is there, but also in pain, and frustrated."

Fizzing, is that what I feel like to you Jack? "I fizz?"

"Yep. And now, your best friend comes up and tells you that the kid you were holding last night belongs to us. How would you feel?"

"Jack, I feel like I want to yell it from the rooftops." I answer honestly.

"Sam. Come on. Be the Doc, not you. You've just broken up with your boyfriend. You're feeling alone and tired and fed up with life. And you're told something which defies all the laws that you know of? What do you do?"

"Get my Dad to hold a shotgun wedding." I tease.

"Sam."

"Okay, okay. I get scared. I'm in denial. But I know the perfect cure." I lean in and whisper my idea to my husband and relish the way his eyes darken with restrained passion.

"Lunch time folks! Everybody meet back here in an hour." Orders my Colonel and takes my hand before heading in the opposite direction to our camp. "Now, where was this bath house, you've been telling me about Sam?"
