My sister just got engaged, so I might not be able to go on and update as much, due to the fact we are REALLY busy over at my house, well anyways, I hope you enjoy this chapter!

Sam looked up at her house through Pete's car, she turned to Pete. "Thanks," she said as she unbuckled and got out of the car. "Thank you for everything." She walked over to the back car door and helped Jack out of the car.
"Bye Sam," Pete said quietly as he rolled down the window. "I hope things will get better for both of us." He said then drove away.
Sam watched him leave then turned to her house. There went her chance at a 'normal' life. Jack whimpered and she automatically picked him up. "Know what?" he said as he yawned. "I wuv you!"
Sam forced her tears back. So what if the colonel was years younger, he had said he loved her… that was all she needed right now. "I love you too."
Jack smiled. "Can we go 'side now?" he asked.
Sam smiled back. "Yeah, let's go read 'The Ugly Duckling'."
----
Sam smiled as she tucked Jack in and brushed his hair out of his face, Jack's big brown eyes were closed, he was finally asleep. "Night JJ." She whispered.
Jack's eyes popped open. "I 'don wanna go to bed!" he shouted as he sat up. "I wanna pay!"
Sam sighed. "What do you want to do?" she asked as she turned back on the light.
Jack smiled and evil smile. "Piwo fight!" he shouted.
"JJ, don't you want to do something calm… like read another bedtime story?" she asked.
Jack shook his head. "No," he said. "I wanna piwo fight!"
Sam sighed. "Fine, a quick game of pillow fight… then we are both going to bed."
Jack smiled and picked up a pillow and whacked it across Sam's face.
Sam looked up at him and grinned. She ran down the hall into her bedroom and picked up a couple of pillows from her bed.
Jack jumped on the bed and tackled her to the ground, he giggled and quickly ran out of the room. Sam stood up and ran after him, she wasn't about to let Colonel O'Neill beat her, no matter what size he was. Sam hid behind a bookcase with her pillow ready, Jack came running past her and into her bedroom, she ran after him and whacked him. Jack laughed and whacked her back, but suddenly he stopped.
"How come-how come the fetters aren't flying everyair?" he asked as he looked at his pillow.
"These are different pillows." Sam said.
"Oh," he said sounding disappointed. "'Everyting is 'diff'rent."
Sam smiled. "Yep."
Jack whacked her with his pillow on her legs and giggled as he ran out of the room.
"Oh, you're gonna get it…" Sam said as she chased him.

They had managed to destroy a vase and knock over the telephone before Sam finally ended the game. But JJ still didn't want to go to sleep, he wanted to build a fort out of the pillows and blankets he had.
"JJ, it's eleven o'clock… can't we do that tomorrow?" Sam asked as she watched Jack stack the pillows and blankets on top of each other.
Jack shook his head. "Nope! I 'don wanna!" he said with a huge smile. "I'm not sleepy!"
Sam sighed and tossed him another pillow. "Here…"
Jack looked up at her. "Miss Sam? I hungry!" he complained.
Sam was about to die; she was so tired she thought she was about to pass out. "Fine, I'll heat up some soup I should have… somewhere." She said as she walked out of the room.
Jack smiled, he looked around the room for something to hold his blanket down, he spotted a bookshelf full of thick books, he smiled and ran over to it. After choosing ten different books, he pulled them over to his fort on another blanket, because they were too heavy to carry. He began to stack them on top of each other when he changed his mind about making a fort…
He wanted to make a tower! He ran back to the bookshelf and dumped all of the books on the blanket; he pulled them over to the middle of the room and began to stack them on top of each other. They got to high that he couldn't reach them so he pushed the wooden chair over to it and began to stack them again, after he had stacked almost twenty books on top of each other, he managed to get on top of them, smiling happily at his success.
"JJ!" Sam shouted as she dropped the bowl of soup in her hands.
Jack turned around, but at the sudden movement of little Jack, the books began to fall. "AHH!" he shouted as he landed on his back.
Sam rushed over to him, she hadn't even been gone a full five minutes and he had already was in trouble. "JJ! Are you alright?" she asked as she lifted him up carefully.
Jack's smile couldn't have gotten any bigger. "I wanna do tat again!" he said.
Sam let out a sigh of relief. He was fine. She looked down at her books that were now lying opened on the ground. "JJ! What do you think you were doing?" she asked as she began to pick up her books and carefully dusted them off.
"I was king of books!" he said proudly. He looked over at the doorway floor that was covered in soup. "Is- is tat my soup?" he asked.
Sam looked over at him. "Yes, JJ, that is your soup."
Jack's mouth dropped open slightly, but he quickly shut it and walked over to the big mess of soup, he got on his knees and began to slurp it up. Sam looked over at the slurping noise.
"JJ! That is so gross!" she said as she sat the books down and ran to him. She lifted him up. "Don't ever eat off of the floor, ok?"
Jack stood there looking confused. "My mommy said not to 'aste food." He said as he pointed to the soup.
"What? 'Aste… do you mean waste?" Sam asked. Jack nodded. "JJ, this time it's not okay."
"But-"
"JJ! Please!" Sam shouted. She took a deep breath. "Please… don't you want to go to bed?" she asked.
"No," he answered truthfully. "I don't, but you can!"
Sam sighed, there was no way she was going to go to bed with him acting the way he did.
Jack looked back down at the soup. "Is there anymore?" he asked politely.
"Yes." Sam said as she picked up the plastic bowl.
"If I had my doggie he would lick it cwean!" Jack said as he followed Sam into the kitchen. "He's a good dog... only bits swangers."
Sam chuckled. "Only bites strangers eh?"
Jack nodded. "Uh-huh."
Sam smiled. "You're a funny kid."
