They walked for about twenty minutes when they found a Grecian palace. Daniel stared at it in wonder. It had twelve large, white columns with the classic architecture of the Golden Age of Greece. "It's beautiful!"

"What'd you say, Danny Boy?"

"Nothing, Jack."

Twelve young women came out into the palace courtyard. They separated into four groups of three and took each of the off-world travelers.

The men were taken to a 'Roman bath,' while Sam was taken to a more private chamber to bathe and dress.

After an hour or two of the royal treatment, they were all brought into the main hall for dinner. Jack, Daniel and Teal'c were brought into the hall first, all having exchanged their military-issue camouflaged clothing, however reluctantly, for Grecian togas.

Daniel and Teal'c looked more comfortable in the yards of fabric than Jack was, but they all turned around stunned when Sam walked in. Her light blue robes were the traditional Greek style, her hair woven around a laurel crown. The dress accentuated her clear, blue eyes and her slim figure…Jack's favorite features.

"Sam, you look great!" Jack said.

She blushed at her CO's compliment. "They wouldn't take no for an answer."

"I am glad to hear it." Came the voice that they had heard in the woods. A woman with dark brown curly hair that was styled similarly to Sam's, in a dark blue robe of similar design to Samantha's stood before them. "Please. Sit and eat."

The team sat and the woman merely watched as they looked at the familiar Mediterranean foods that were set before them. There were grapes, olives, stuffed grape leaves, lamb's meat, and other flavorful foods.

Daniel began eating the marvelous fare, joined by his companions after making certain that it was safe.

"So, you are not Goa'uld."

Daniel nodded. "We're explorers from Earth."

The woman merely bobbed her head. But then, she turned to Sam. "But why do I sense a presence in you, my dear?"

She almost choked on her grape. "I was…host to a Tok'ra symbiote."

"Are they not Goa'uld?"

Sam was almost offended by the statement- just as Jolinar and all of the other Tok'ra were, and Daniel came to her aid. "The Tok'ra are similar in anatomy to the Goa'uld, but they are friends and allies to the humans. They don't want to enslave humans as the Goa'uld do."

Finally, the woman smiled after scrutinizing Sam. "Do you like your accommodations?"

All of them nodded, vigorously. "Thank you for your kind treatment." Sam added.

"You are very welcome, dear," Was the woman's guarded response.

"That's when I thought that something might not be quite right." Daniel confessed. "But I knew that if I said that to Jack, he'd leave before we could figure out what was going on, so I was quiet."

"Yeah…well, I should have noticed…" Jack told the General.

"Stop it, you two. There was nothing you could have done to stop what happened." Sam said.

"What do you mean?" General Hammond probed.

"She placed some foreign substance in our food and drinks." Teal'c said.

"She drugged you?" The General asked.

He received affirmative nods from all around.

"She said later that she was trying to make our dreams come true or something." Jack said.

"More like fulfill our unfulfilled desires." Daniel clarified.

"At any rate, General…the Colonel and I ended up married and Teal'c was no longer subject to his symbiote." Sam said, redirecting the conversation toward the relevant facts.

"And Doctor Jackson?"

"I was held prisoner in her palace."

"She really liked Danny."

"Thanks, Jack…"

"What? She did?"

"Well, what happened after that?" The General probed.

"Well, it all went so fast- I'm not even sure I know what happened." Daniel said. "And I wasn't drugged…exactly."

Sam began to yawn, and the General looked at his watch. "I'm sorry, SG-1. We'll have to postpone the rest of this debriefing until 0930 hours tomorrow. Dismissed."

Jack looked at his watch and gasped. It was already 2300 hours. He shook his head in disbelief.

Suddenly, he felt his wife by his side. "Everything okay?" She asked.

He nodded. "I think time just got away from us." He placed his arm around her waist, and she half-laid her head on his shoulder as they walked toward the infirmary to pick up their kids. "How are you?"

She smiled. "I'm fine. Just tired."

"Glad to be home?"

She sighed. "I don't know…it's never been OUR home."

He nodded. Ever since they had remembered their names, ranks, lives…they had been unsure of what to expect. And it had been unsettling for them- both personally and in their marriage.

They reached the infirmary to find Janet reading a book by the door. "Janet?"

She turned. "Oh…they're asleep."

Sam bit her lip. She hated to wake the kids up just to move them to another place for them to sleep.

"Can they stay the night here?" Jack asked.

She nodded. "Sure. There's always going to be someone down here, and we only have two teams off-world that could come in hot, so…they're fine."

Sam smiled gratefully. "Thanks."

"No problem. You know Cassie's going to want to baby-sit."

Sam chuckled. "I think she'll have a lot of opportunities to come over. I'm having a hard time keeping up with those two these days."

Janet smiled. "Take care."

"I will."

They walked toward the VIP room that had been prepared for them. For once, Jack wasn't sure what he was supposed to do. The last ten…years…were telling him that his place was inside that room with her. But he hadn't been given the okay from General Hammond. "Sam?"

"Hmm?"

"What do you think General Hammond would say if I stayed…with you?"

She pulled away from him and looked him in the eyes as if to check and see if he was serious. "What?"

"Well…we're back to being CO and 2IC. We've got a bit of a problem."

She closed her eyes in disappointment. She didn't want to give him up.

"We'll ask him tomorrow. And if he has a problem with it, I'll resign. I'll need to stay with the kids, anyway."

Jack smiled tenderly at her as he brushed a few strands of her hair out of her eyes. "Okay." He kissed her forehead. "Now, let's get you to bed."
