"Would you like to come in for some coffee?"
"Sam?" Jack look at her
"Sure"
They walked into the house and into the dining room. Dave went to put the pot on.
"Sam, doc here is an M.D and he is working with Dr Fraiser and he knows about the stargate project"
"Ok, where is your wife, I would like to meet her?" Dave froze on the spot.
"Ah Sam, his wife was killed three months ago"
"Oh sorry for your lost, I know what it's like, I lost my mother when I was young"
"Yeah, I know your husband told me and he was going to introduce me to your father, because he has been through it himself"
"Ok, I'm sure he can help you when he is here"
"Thanks"
He poured them coffee and they all sat down at the dining table. Then Sam's phone rang.
"Excuse me" Sam stood up and walkws into another room to answer it
"Carter"
"Hey Sam where are you?"
"Hi Janet, I'm at Jack's old place. Do you know a Lieutenant Colonel Dave Dixon?"
"Is he about Daniel's height, black hair and green eyes?"
"Yes"
"He got a birth mark on his left earlobe?"
Sam turned to look at his left ear, the turned her back to them
"Yes"
"He is the new doctor here and he has full clearance"
"Ok, so what did you ring up for?"
"Well, we were worried when you didn't show up at your new house?"
"Janet, where are you?"
Sam turned around and looked at Jack, who was looking at her.
"We are at you new home"
"We? Who else is there?" then Sam heard a door open and heard Cassie's voice.
"Mom, where are Jack and Sam, everyone is waiting for them?" Sam was shocked.
"Janet, what's going on, who is at the house"
"Sam, how long are you and the colonel going to be there?"
"Sam, you and Jack better haul your ass's over here now or do I have to get Uncle George to order you two here" Cassie said, yelling
"Cassie Shh, what are you trying to do, blow the surprise party?"
"Janet, what surprise party?" Jack raised his eyebrows when Sam said that.
"Cassie Fraiser you are in so much trouble young lady. Sorry Sam, so when can you and the colonel be here?"
"Soon Janet, don't worry. We will try to act surprised when we show up"
"Ok, see you soon" and they hung up. Then Sam walked back in to the dining area.
"Sorry about that. It seems that our friends are throwing a surprise party for us at our new home and they are waiting for us"
"Ok, well we better go then. It was nice meeting you doc, see you around the base then" Jack said as he stood up to shake the guy's hand
"It was nice to meet you both also. See you two on Monday then?"
"Yep, thanks for the coffee. We better go and see what they did to the house" they went to the door and open it.
"Nice to meet you Dr Dixon" Sam said, shaking his hand
"Nice to meet you also"
"Thanks, we better go"
"Bye, see you on Monday"
