Never Push the Button

Chapter 4

Jack woke slowly, and the first thing he noticed was that the pain, the casts, the stitches were all gone. A Junior at the University of Minisota, he had been a hockey player, but that had all ended when the car he was driving swirved off the icy road, breaking a leg, a wrist, and making him bed bound for a month.

He still had physical therapy to do, but it looked like, felt like he was completely healed, "Colonel, good you're awake."

"What did you call me?"

"Colonol O'Neill, are you all right?" the young nurse asked.

"Well, consitering I was in a car accident two months ago, I'm peachy."

An Hour Later

Dr. Frasier took in a deep breath, "Sir, I hate to be the one to have to tell you this, but because of the alien device Colonel Jack O'Niell and Major Samantha Carter have reverted physically and menally to when they were 21."

Meanwhile

Jack looked over to the bed next to him, to find the most drop-dead gorgeous woman he'd never met. "I must have died and gone to heaved, for you are an Angel."

She giggled glancing over at him, obviously liking what she was seeing, "How often does that line work?"

"Only when we're both drunk, which happens a lot after school. I'm Jack, Junior at the University of Minisota."

"Sam, Senior at the Air Force Academy, I'm probably the same age as you, I graduated from high school a year early."

"I didn't know they let women into the Air Force Academy?"

"Well they do, and I am an Astrophysics major."

"Wow."

"What's your major?"

"Sociology," Jack answered, and then leaned in almost whipering, "So, since you're the Military Gal, what the hell is going on?"

Sam shrugged. "I have no Idea."

"Well, I'm bored, lets go explore."

"I don't know, we are on a military base. It's not a good idea to be caught sneaking around."

"Alright. Maybe we could find something else to do." Jack said shaking his eyebrows, and Sam giggled.

"You never stop do you."

Daniel Jackson and Teal'c were on the other side of the curtain lisiting to Jack and Sam flirt. It was refreshing, Daniel thought. They were acting towards each other like they would have all along, if Military regs weren't in the way.

And then Daniel heard Jack, "So, Sam, when this is all over, wanna go get a drink?"

The giggle and yes were stopped when Janet Frasier walked into her infermery with General Hammond to find Jack having moved, sitting next to Samantha on the bed. When Sam saw the two figures appear, she jumped out of bed to attend while Jack stared, amazed.
