A/N: Some of last chapter to refresh!

Jack's heart stopped at her smile, "Right, you'll probably sleep till we are there and then I'll have no time to pre-warn you!" Jack chuckled, lying next to Sam but not under the same covers, "Well…"

Sam's POV

'Wow, I'm sitting here with Jack O'Neill and his going on about his family; they seem to be a prominent family in their part of Ireland. I think he said it was Turners Crossing in Cork; it's a different name I suppose!' Sam sat thinking before Jack broke into her world, "Hey Sam, you listening or have you fallen asleep?" Jack nudged Sam

"Sorry Jack, just thinking, do they really have places called Cork in Ireland?" Sam giggled

'Yes and please stop giggling, it's annoying enough that I have to begin the family section again because you obviously were not listening!" Jack grumbled

"Sorry" Sam blushed and became quiet

'Thank you, now as I was saying, I am the third eldest of 9; 4 brothers and 4 sisters. Now pay attention this is the tricky part, it goes in order of Moya, Tynan, me, Liam, Riley, Tara, Hogan and Boann are twins and last but surely not least there's Shaz! Now, Boann likes to be called Ann and Tynan likes Ty" Jack stopped making sure Sam had taken it all in before continuing, "Here's comes the even trickier part" Jack took a deep breath, "Moya is married to Egan and they have three kids; Nolan Logan and Martin. Nolan is married to Stacey and they have two kids Rohan and Peter; Logan is married to Michelle and they have one kid Matthew or Matt" Jack took another breath.

"Then Tynan is married to Ceara and they have four kids; Darby, Keavy, Allistar and Dillion, who are also twins. Now Darby is married to Neal, they have no kids and Keavy likes to be called Kea. Liam is married to Sheena and they have two kids, Galvin and Kerri" Sam went stiff at the mention of Kerri, "but Kerri prefers Kelly. Riley isn't married but she has two kids too, Kaine and Juliane or Jules. Tara is married to Kevin and they have two boys Sean and Quinlan or Quin. Hogan is married to Rachel and they have two girls Rebecca or Becca and Mary; Boann is married to Michael and they have Abbey and Patrick and well Shaz isn't married and he has no kids" Jack finally finished

Sam sat there stunned, when he said it would be hard to remember he wasn't joking! "Holy Hannah Jack, that's not a family that's an army!"

Jack laughed, before continuing, "My parents wanted a large family, and as it is I have great nephews older than some of my nieces!"

'I wonder if he wants a large family.' "Do you want a large family Jack?"

"Yes and no, I mean my family I would say is too big! What with my lifestyle, I would be happy with a few kids, two or three, no more than that probably, what about you?" Jack asked

"Ah, well kids? I know I want them, but I'm not sure when or how many. I had a great childhood with two of us, so I would say about two?" Sam yawned, stretching out and snuggling further into the bed

"I should let you get some sleep, I'll finished off tomorrow, I'll save Grandma for then!" Jack smiled and got up

"No Jack, please stay" Sam asked softly

"I would love to, you know that, but I would like to be alive in the morning, and as it goes Shaz has a thing for you, besides it will be enough for you to meet my family. I don't want to add anymore on you" Jack smiled before bending down and gently kissing her forehead, "Night Sam"

Sam closed her eyes when Jack kissed her, wanting to remember his touch for comfort through the turbulent night, "Night Jack" she once again yawned before snuggling further under the covers and curling up.

Jack's POV

'Damn she's beautiful' Jack walked away softly, and sat next to his brother and sighed. "What's that for?" Liam asked

"It's been a long day" Jack sighed again

"Yes and tomorrow will be even longer, what with landing in Ireland and greeting the family? Do you think she's up to it?" Liam pointed at Sam now slumber body

"Actually yes, she's survived much worse than my family" Jack watched as Sam rolled over and mumbled something softly

"She is beautiful Jack, it's a pity about those regs of yours" Liam gave Jack a comforting pat on the back

"Well at least now I might stand a chance!" Shaz joked, "You always seem to have the better hand with the women"

"What makes you think you have any chance with her?" Liam asked sceptical

"Well obviously I wouldn't if there weren't any regs, but a women does need a man eventually and I don't see those regs going anywhere!" Shaz replied before becoming comfy on the floor and going to sleep

"He doesn't have a chance" Jack whispered to Liam, "Trust me, she hates arrogant pricks, and lucky me Shaz is one of them!" Jack laughed before heading down near the side of Sam's bed and becoming comfortable on the side of the life boat before drifting off to sleep.

"Sir we lied…because I care about her a lot more than I should…usually people wear these things on their fingers…I haven't said yes yet…I'll always be here for you…I'm resigning so I can do this…or do we have to arm wrestle?" Flash backs of moments with Sam kept racing through his mind while he slept, unaware that turbulence was going to move him without notice. Jack rolled off the edge of the life boat without so much as a peep from him, and that's where he stayed until he woke up.

He tried to move left but the strong plastic of the lifeboat was stopping him, he didn't really want to move, he was comfy, but he did want to roll over. His senses began to wake up and felt the presence of another body next to him, but he didn't remember going to sleep next to anyone; trying to move his right arm he found he couldn't for it was stuck under the sleeping body. Without opening his eyes, he knew who it was; he had somehow been rocked into her bed. Opening his eyes would only clarify this, but that would mean he couldn't keep pretending that he was asleep, she would know.

Sam stirred releasing the pressure on Jack's right arm, before snuggling closer to him. The movement causing the involuntary movement of other parts of Jack, 'Please God, wake her up, just this once' "Jack, I'm cold" Sam's voice hit his ears

"That's because I have the blankets" Jack smiled

"Give me" Sam absentmindedly grabbed for the blankets, before she realised what she was asking, "Jack?" her voice was quieter

"Sam, what's wrong?" Jack asked arranging the blankets over them both

"Did we…have we?" Sam couldn't get the words out

"No, not unless you count dreams, but even then no" Jack reassured her, "Knocked into here through the night. Want to get up or keep sleeping?"

"I think we should get up, I can see light" Sam sighed sadly, realising that even though the regs aren't in place it was still too awkward at the moment to pursue anything with him.

Jack looked around noticing for the first time that she was right, they had slept through the night and so it seemed most of the morning, glancing towards the front of the plane, he could still make out the bundle of clothing as Shaz, but Liam had obviously woken up, because all he was granted with was a great big smile, "Mornin' Jack"

"Morning or afternoon Liam, how long have you been awake?" Jack asked rubbing sleep out of his eyes

"Long enough to realise why Shaz has no chance what-so-ever of getting near her" Liam laughed

"That long huh? Well keep it to yourself ok?" Jack's head dropped back behind the lifeboats rubbery side and all he could hear was Liam's laugh echoing off the walls of the plane

"So I'm guessing now would be a great time for me to walk out there half dressed?" Sam giggled

"NO! Do you want me shot?" Jack pleaded with her

"Don't worry; I'm just hungry, want something?" Sam grabbed her jacket from the seat in front of her, "Was wondering where this got to!"

"Actually I'm thinking I should get up too, before Shaz wakes and finds me in here, besides I still have my Grandma to tell you about, and Liam might just help with that one!" Jack heaved himself up, his knees groaning all the way, "Need a hand?" Sam smiled softly

"Yea thanks" Jack took her offered hand and made it up without further delay, limping a little on their way to Liam Jack cursed the day he let his knees get the better of him, 'and in front of Sam too! Geez I'm really getting too old when she can offer me a hand' "Don't look like that Jack, Sheena helps me with a lot of things and your only a year older than me!" (A/N: my mum kicked up a stink about Jack being 50 so I had to make him 46…she reckons it's more realistic if Sam and him are gonna have kids and that men can go grey at any age!)

"Yea thanks Liam, makes me feel so much better!" Jack retorted

"FOOD!" Sam yelled from the cockpit, "They actually gave us food! Not MREs!" Jack could help but stare at Sam, who's face had become suddenly animated and awake, "Here sir" she handed a bowl of fruit to Jack before giving him a small wink and waking Shaz up.

Back at the SGC, Daniel's POV

"I'm sorry sirs but I can't, Sam made clear that if the betting pools changed while they were away, she would send me back to the first gate address with a black hole and leave me there" Daniel explained

"Son, I think you can understand when I say I want to put another 100 on Thursday" the President tried again

"I can understand it, but do you have any idea how pissed off she would be and just how likely she would send me in an accidental way?" Daniel began to get annoyed, "Yes before you say it I understand that you're the Commander and Chief, but she's Sam Carter, she knows more than one way of sending someone to the wrong address without it tracing back to her!"

"Doctor Jackson, how about we put the money on and you don't change the books, then she will never know" Hammond tried to compromise

"Fine! If I get sent to the wrong address because of this, you will hear from me!" Daniel snapped before leading them to his office, "Don't go telling people I did this, otherwise she will find out and I will disappear!" Daniel shut his lab door behind them and proceeded to grab one of his many report journals and started writing in a dialect unknown to both Hammond or the President, "Now, how much for you General Hammond?"

"I'm gonna put an extra 100 on the Halloween party, for a proposal" Daniel scribbled down the details and accepted the cash, which was then placed in a box and left on his desk for the president, "and You sir?"

"Give me 100 for Thursday and an extra 50 for the Halloween party for a proposal as well" Daniel finished scribbling down the details and accepted the cash again, "Now if you will excuse me I need you both to leave for me to put away the money tin" Daniel escorted the two out of his lab before closing and locking his door.

He then proceeded to grab the money tin, recount the money and write that down next to the two new bets and close the book. Then he grabbed this ancient looking device and placed it on the top of the box and pressed a button, the box glowed and the device enclosed the box within long tentacle like locks. "Got to love ancient technology" Daniel mumbled before then placing the box on the shelf like it was any other artefact on show.

A/N: I know your gonna be mad because it's not that long, but it's nearly Christmas, it's swealtering hot here, I didn't get a high enough grade to go to the Uni I wanted to, but I did Gradute, so please forgive me!

I have a big thank you to give to a certain reviewer, Dana-Carter gave me the inspiration to set the O'Neill family up in Turner's Crossing in Cork, so all the credit for that idea is hers! Love her people, without the place I was stuck...so thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Also, welcome to all the newcomers who have just begun reading me, probably because I'm still posting and it's coming up fresh...but thanks!

Thank you for sticking it out you old-timers! Your comments and suggestions are fantastic and inspiring! (Is it me or am I ending everything with a ?)

Questionable light I am an Aussie, but I'm in Vic so it's VCE, but exactly the same as the HSC, and I hope you did well too!

Finally, thank you to all the reviewers who are correcting my spelling, if any one of you are quick and efficient you can beta for me, I'm being serious too, so email me.

Muahsio,

P.S. If you didn't notice and we're gonna flame me for it being short, it's in two parts this section. Otherwise it's too long of me to type everything and I might end up chopping bits that I don't want to. So it's Jack's Family Pt1 and Pt2.
