Author's Note: I still don't know what I'm doing with this story as of yet. But um, I hope you all enjoy. And although it looks like a Delek/Sam story in the making, it's a Sam Malek pairing. For those who are interested in a Sam/Delek pairing, I may do one, or a rewrite of this one if the idea is liked.
Part 3: The Delekian Maneuver
The last few months have been exciting, filled with intrigue, mystery, and babbling. Really, unlike the SGC, the Tok'ra missions were quite dull and routine. Do this do that, and ever so often a tok'ra host or symbiote with a sense of humor will start something up that will last for a few days and then subside. She so wished that, like the SGC, that the Tokra had a Fred and George to enter the frey and help keep things interesting. Really four hundred years of this could get tiring. The operatives have the most fun according to everyone on base, because they could do things and get out and see stuff.
It was for this reason she found herself accepting a mission with of all people, Delek. Delek was a pig that had proceeded to insult her father on more than one occasion, and had nearly gotten knocked out by Jacob after saying some things about god knows what. Rumors had it that it was sexual innuendo, concerning her, though she just didn't know, or care for that matter. Sure, Delek was cute, and so was Malek, but Malek and Kelmaa were still close, and me coming into the mix was a little bit, well, let's just say Kelmaa's done some things. Like even suggesting to her a mission with Delek, for one thing.
But good lord was Delek a rude arse who deserved to get his butt kicked. But unfortunately, unlike her father, she had better control of her anger, and Lantash was too busy with work among other things to give notice to Delek at all. So when Lantash retreated allowing her full control, she instantly indulged herself with it. Stretching, she went from the cockpit of the Tel'tak into the little makeshift sleeping quarters where she proceeded to lie down. She had nothing to do and figured that she would take a nap. She woke up with a warm body quite close to her, and must have realized the law of warm bodies had come into play.
She would have gotten up, but Delek had put his arm around her waist. Lantash was more than a little mad at this point, and Sam had to beg not do anything to Delek for the sake of NOT having this spread like air through the Tok'ra tunnels. Once it was out, there was nothing that you could do to contain it. The Tok'ra were very gossipy, and would not hesitate to label Delek as the next love interest of Lantash. Lantash in her mind bristled at this, and Sam could not help but laugh. She was surprised therefore when a question came out of aforementioned Delek's mouth. Sam jumped about 5 feet into the air when he spoke, and he proceeded to laugh as well. "Why are you laughing?" he repeated.
"Well, wait a minute? You're conscious!" said Sam now a little mad. She wondered if he was conscious when she awoke, or whether he was conscious the whole time. If it was the latter, well, Lantash had made plans to speak with the correct sources to leak the gossip, and make sure it came out heavily biased in her favor. She was also sure that Selmak would not approve of such manners that grew increasingly close to sexual harassment.
"Why yes, Samantha, I am, how did you ever notice?" cooed Delek right up in her ear. His intentions were quite clear, for she could tell simply by looking at his state of arousal. She pushed him away almost afraid that she would regurgitate the not so good food cooked by Anise earlier before the mission. Such blatant flirting was so, abnormal to her that it was disgusting. All she would be for Delek was some Tok'ra hero's trophy wife with the memories of Jolinar at his finger tips. Delek was most definitely masculine, and Lantash was, well he was a lot more effeminate than people give him credit for, and would cave to Delek's intentions. But alas, the only way that that could happen is either for Lantash to become female enough in the next few years or for her to fall in love with him, and why should she? Malek was so much nicer.
"I'm not interested in you Delek, now TAKE YOUR HANDS OFF ME!" Sam proceeded to shout the latter part in emphasis. Delek promptly removed his arms, and though realizing that she wasn't interested, realized a certain aspect of this, and reversed the position.
"I know you're interested in me, Sam. That's what your father calls you, right? Is it okay if I call you that? I see it the way you look at me, I see it when you talk to me, its very in-your-face that you love me!" said Delek teasing her more than being honest.
"I am not interested in you, Delek! For one thing, your size is much too small for me, and…" Sam was interrupted by a comment made by Delek after that.
"Why are you looking at my size? Hmm, sure you're not interested, or are you implying that you were interested but saw my size and suddenly lost interest? Because, you know, I do realize there are things you can take and do to get it longer if that's what you want" Delek replied intentionally trying to be a smartass.
Sam growled in frustration and went to the Pel'tac, suddenly remembering an MTV show. Pimp my ride, well, she wished she could pimp this pel'tac because whoever designed these things had NO fashion sense. I mean c'mon, gold walls everywhere, the only system lords that ever had a sense of style and design were Ra and Baal. Though she was still laughing about the fact that RA had somehow managed to come back somehow, there was still a sense of weirdness in it all. RA had cloned himself. Shaking her head, she turned back towards the monitor and saw the Tok'ra homeworld, and, happy to be able to get rid of Delek and his perverted little mind, she took the ship in.
When she arrived on the surface, a person was waiting for her. It was Malek, and when she got off the Tel'tak, he ran straight towards her and wrapped his arms around her. Neither of them caught the jealous and hurt look that came onto Delek's face at this. For both Sam and Malek were happy to be together in each other's arms. Kelmaa be damned.
