Chapter Fifty Three

Sam went to her lab while Jack went to get his gear sorted out and headed to the gate room, where he was due to leave for the Alpha site. Hammond, Daniel and Teal'c were already waiting for him.

"You guys are here to see me off?"

"Yep, where's Sam?" then Sam walked in.

"Hey, everything ok?" Jack asked when he looked at her.

"Yep"

Then Hammond gave the nod and Walter started dialling the gate.

"See you guys this weekend or whenever."

"Don't worry Jack, everything is going to be fine. We will keep Sam and ourselves safe."

"Thanks guys. So George, who is the new member of SG1?"

"Lieutenant Elliott"

"Ah, ok, he is a good kid."

"True; have you got everything?"

"Yep, my game boy, plenty of batteries and my yoyo. It is a shame I can't take my play station with me and my Simpson collection" Sam tried to keep a straight face.

"It will be here when you get back Jack" Sam said, smiling at him.

"Good" then the wormhole was formed.

"Well, see you guys whenever."

He gave both Daniel and Teal'c a hug and shook Hammond's hand. Then he gave Sam a hug and a kiss in front of all of them, including the smiling SF's. When they parted they were smiling at each other.

"Look after your self Sam"

"I will Jack, you look after your self as well"

"I will" they both kiss one more time before pulling apart.

Jack put his backpack on and Sam picks up his duffle bag and passes it to him.

"I better go; take care kids and don't let this place fall apart" they all grinned. Then he turned to Sam,

"I love you"

"I love you too Jack"

She gave him a kiss and walked up the ramp; he stopped at the top and looked over his shoulder, taking one last look at Sam. She was watching him as he walked through the gate and then it shut down.

"We will brief in five minutes people" then Hammond left.

"Come on Sam, let's go and get ready."

"Ok" and they walked out of the gate room to get ready for their first briefing.
