Sam smiled at the memory. Her grandmother was right; Sam did follow her heart, even through they were forced to get married. Sam was lost in thought, until Jack kissed her.

"Wh..what"

"Hey, are you ok?"

"Yeah, I was just remembering something my grandmother said to me when I was eight"

"Ok, care to share?"

"When I was eight, I was sick when Mom and Dad were away for a week. My grandmother, that is Mom's mother was looking after Mark and me. She taught me how to make a patchwork quilt the old fashioned way. We were talking one day and I said to her that I was going to save the quilt until my wedding night" Jack looked at the quilt on the bed.

"This quilt?"

"Yes, I think Dad must have had something to do with this"

"But how?"

"Gran would have told him and Mom about our chit chat"

"Ok,what else?"

"I said to her that one day I would marry a good looking hunk of a fly boy and she laughed. Then she told me that is what my mother said"

"Well it did happen, your mother married her fly boy, and you married yours, even though we were forced into the marriage. Any regrets?"

"Yes, that our family and friends weren't there for our first wedding. As for us, no regrets"

"Good" He passed the glass to her.

"To us and our future, wherever it leads us"

"To our family and friends"

They clicked the glasses before taking a sip, then Jack walked over and got a strawberry. Sam followed him and he turned around. He put the strawberry into her mouth, she bit half of it and he put the rest in his mouth. Sam picked one up and did the same to him.

They finished the strawberries and the champagne. Jack took Sam's glass from her hand and put them on the table, then held on to her hand and led her over to the bed. When they got to the side, Jack flicked back the covers and they both were shocked.

"Silk sheets?" Jack said

"I wonder who they are from?"

"Who knows, so long as we don't slip out of the bed. I'm sure we will be fine" Sam giggled.

They kissed passionately, then started to remove one another's clothes. Once they were naked, Jack lay Sam down on the bed before climbing on top of her.

"Sam I haven't done this in years"

"Same here. What do you mean, what about Edora?"

"Sam, all Laira wanted was a kid, not me. She tried to seduce me the night before Teal'c showed up. I was drunk with the moonshine rot gut they had. She led me to her bed, but before anything happened, I passed out. I hope she didn't do any thing while I was out of it"

"You haven't seen her since, have you?"

"No"

"Well let's not talk about her tonight"

"Ok, Sam you are the most beautiful women in the world and I love you"

"The world" Sam raised an eyebrow.

"Ok, the galaxy, better?"

"Yes"

"Good, now less talking and more action"

They kissed and then made passionate love, screaming one another's names. It was their first time together, making love; Jack was gentle with Sam. They talked and made love again, before pulling the covers over themselves before falling asleep in one another's arms.
