"Cassie?" Jack asked again, now seriously wondering what the teen was hiding.

"Um, I, um… nothing" Cassie finally managed to get out, hoping against hope that Jack would believe her.

He didn't.

"Cassie, Now" he ordered holding out his hand.

Slowly Cassie handed him her 'research'. Eyes downcast, waiting for Jack's explosion.

It didn't come, looking up she saw he was about to speak, so she jumped in trying to defend herself.

"Look I'm sorry I never should have done this but I was looking for your Game Boy and this just happened to fall out and I saw the different handwriting and thought that it would be cool to see what everyone else thought" when she stopped for a breath, Jack jumped in.

"Cassie clam down. Yes it was wrong for you to do this; did you even stop to think about Carter's feelings?"

"I know, But Pete is so wrong for her, everyone knows, just look at the list"

"If Carter wants to date Pete that is her decision"

"Jack how can you stand there and act so high and mighty. That's your handwriting at the top."

Caught out Jack didn't have a comeback.

"…"

"…"

"…"

"Alright you caught me; I made this list up with Danny, Jake, the General, T and your Mom."

"I know" was Cassie's only response, staring at her Uncle.

"Cassie, we were wrong to do that, and that was where it was meant to end. No one else was to kn..."

He stopped mid- sentence, as he eye caught one of the entries on the paper. "Cover him in a full body cast, and hang him from the ceiling." Jack started laughing "That is great. What else is there?" And sitting down he started thumbing through the various entries that had been made.

"Send him to Russia, to live with McKay"

"Send him to the moon, Maybourne found"

Soon both Cassie and Jack were laughing, taking turns reading some of the great suggestions.

Claming down Jack looked at Cassie.

"Ok this is what we need to do"

An; I know it's short but I just wanted to get Cassie telling Jack over with. So here it is. Sorry for the late update. And if anyone wants to Beta this for me, let me know. Please R&R and I hope you enjoyed.
