Then they heard a moan and looked over at Sam. Janet went to her side quickly. Jack got up, but didn't let go of her hand.
"Sam, can you hear me?"
"Jack?"
"Yeah, I'm here. You gave us quite a scare. How are you feeling?"
"Thirsty" She opened her eyes to look into Jack brown ones.
"Janet, can she have some water or some thing?"
"Yes, next to the bed"
Jack saw the jug and cup with a straw in it. He poured some water into the cup and he brought the cup next to her mouth and put the straw next to her lips. She opened them so Jack could move the straw in a bit further. She started sucking up the cool water into her dry mouth, with small sips at a time. When she was finished, she closed her eyes.
"Sleep Sam"
Jack put the cup back onto the night table and then he stroked her hair and bent over and kissed her lips. The he sat down again by her bed.
"We all better let her rest, you can come back tomorrow, to see how she is doing" Janet said.
"Janet, can I stay with her" Jack said
"Why don't we all take turns staying with her?" Daniel asked.
"Ok, you can take turns. If all goes well, Sir, I would like to have Sam transferred back to the base in a couple of days"
"Just let us know when you want her moved"
"Yes sir"
"What's going to happen to Kinsey and his goons?" Jack asked,
"Even with all the information you have given us, we will need more before we can do any thing else"
"Would photos and security camera footage from the hotel help?" Daniel asked
"Yes, it would. We will get some people over there to take care of it"
"I can help out, since I was there," Daniel asked
"Ok, we better leave them alone. Just keep me informed"
"Yes sir"
"Mr. President, what about the bomb and General Hammond?" Teal'c asked.
"It's up to you George" Ryan said
"I would love to come back. As for the bomb, it should be dismantled" they all agreed with that.
They all left Jack and Sam alone for few hours before Teal'c took over.
