Couple of hours later they walk back into their warm home. Sam went to check on the washing while Jack made them a hot drink. They both sat down and watched a movie while having their drinks. That night they had soup and toast for dinner and then Sam made hot vanilla custard, they had that with chop up fruit for dessert, then a hot chocolate after that.

When they finish their drinks, they both do the dishes together and then they return and watch some TV for a while before going to bed for the night.

The next morning they both went to Peterson air force base since Sam wanted to do some flying while Jack was having his briefing. Sam was flying around doing some firing practice for over an hour, till she ran out of ammo. Then she did some low flying for an hour before she was asked to return back to base

"Oh nuts, I was just starting to have some fun up here guys," she said smiling

"We know you were Sam but you needed for a briefing"

"Ok I'm coming back, tell the colonel to keep his shirt on" she knew that they would be grinning

"We will tell him that you are returning"

"Ok"

Ten minutes later Sam walk in the briefing room still wearing her gear

"General, this is a nice surprise, what can I do for you"

"Hello to you to Sam, we need your help"

"Ok what the problem" Sam walk over to the table

"Hi guys"

"Hi Sam"

Then she looked at the general as she sat down and listened to what was going on for the next half-hour and then she looked at the photos that were on the table. She then picked up a felt pen and started circling areas on the photos and writing underneath them.

Ever one watch Sam look at the photos and marking them till she finish then she pass them over to the general

"Here is your targets"

"How can you tell, what is what?" Sam smiles and she explains to him everything in detail. When she finish, she sat back and look at him

"Well thanks for telling me, I'll ford these on to our guys over seas"

"Ok is there anything else general?"

"Not at the moment"

"Ok, if you all will excuse me, I'm going to get changed… Jack I'll be in the mess hall"

"Ok Sam" She stood up and walked out of the room leaving the others there to talk among themselves.

Half an hour later Jack walked into the mess hall to see Sam drink hot chocolate.

"Ready to head home?"

"Sure"

Sam finishes her drink then takes it and puts in where the other dirty dishes are then she walks over to Jack.

"Let's go home" they walked out the door and walked over to his truck and got in and headed home.

Over the next few days while Jack was at work, Sam kept herself busy, she spent all day at Peterson air force base. She was either flying or she was learning how to parachute out of a plane.

On Friday afternoon, Sam went up on a plane with her instructor, they both jumped out of the plane, it was Sam's first time, when it was time she pulled her cord and nothing happened, so she pulled the second one and the cord ended up in her hand.

Her instructor saw what happened and was shocked to see that Sam parachute wasn't working. Then he saw her taking it off and turning it around and putting it on her front, then she opened the top of the pack and the parachute came out.

He was pleased when it came out, and watched as Sam landed on the ground safely. When he landed not far from Sam. The personal was talking to Sam as she gathered up her parachute while talking to them. When the colonel walked over to Sam

"Sam are you ok?"

"Yes, I'm fine, I want you to find out why this shoot fail"

"Don't you worry about that, anything else"

"Can we go again" she said smiling

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, just one more time"

"Ok, I'll go and get us another shoots"

"Thanks" Sam passes him her parashoot before walking back over to where the shoots are.

When the plane landed, the colonel spoke to the pilot before waving Sam over.

"See you guys later"

"Ok Sam good luck"

"Thanks"

She walked over to the plane and put the parachute on before getting onto the plane. Few minutes later they were in the air once again till they reached the altitude then she and her instructor jumped out of the plane, he watched Sam to make sure she was ok.

When it is time, they both pull the cords and their shoot open up. Sam looked down to the ground seeing the personnel watching them coming in to land. When Sam did, she landed right in front of them without having to roll on the ground or anything like that.

"Hi guys"

"How do you feel Sam?"

"Good that was great the second time round" she said smiling at them.

Then she picked up her shoot just the way she was shown. Once it was all in her arms, and the backpack was off.

"See you guys later"

"Ok Sam"

She walk over to where the parachute are keep and put it on the table, by that time her instructor walk in with his

"Well done Sam, you did great for the second time"

"Thanks" she said smiling

"What are you going to do now?"

"I'm going to the mess hall for some lunch and this afternoon I don't know yet"

"Ok, well have a great afternoon"

"Thanks"

Sam walked out of the building and walked over to the mess hall to get some lunch. When she walked in she walked over to where the line was and picked up a tray and went to see what they got for Friday lunch. Sam got herself-a chicken salad sandwich, blue jello and bottle of orange juice.

Then she walked over and sat down at a table and started eating when Jack and his team walked in, Jack saw Sam and they both smiled at each other, then he went to get his lunch then he walked over and joined her.

They talked about their morning and she told Jack about what happened to the parachutes and what she did, everything. Jack was shocked at first but after she told him what she did, he was happy by the end knowing that she wasn't afraid of jumping out of the plane again.

After lunch, Sam did some firearms shooting practice and flew for a few hours then she went to see what Jack was up to. When she saw him and the others doing hand to hand training, she sat back and watched them train for an hour. When they finish, Jack walks over to her with a smile on his face.

"Well how do you think I did"

"Pretty good, but I think you need some more practice"

"Do you think so?"

"Yep, so how about you go and have a shower and change then we can get out of here"

"Sounds good to me"

"I'll meet you in the truck"

"Ok" he turns around and walks over to where the double doors are while Sam stood up and walked over to another door.

Twenty minute later Sam saw Jack walking over to his truck and got in, he saw Sam taking off her head phones since she was listening to some music.

"Shall we go and get some groceries for home"

"Sounds good to me and how about we stay home tonight, we could rent some videos, and buy a pizza or something for dinner"

"That's a great idea Sam" He started up his truck and then put the heater on before they left to head into town.

After they got some groceries, their dinner and three movies, they picked out for the night, they headed on home. When they got home they put everything away then they sat down and watched the first movie while eating pizza for dinner.

When the movie was over, Sam took care of the boxes and got them both a hot drinks while Jack took care of the second movie. When the movie finish and the tape rewound back to the beginning. Sam got up and changed the tape then she took the mugs into the kitchen then she went and relieved herself before returning back to Jack side, then they watched the last movie before going to bed for the night.

The next day they meet up with Mark and Ann in the mall. They all went shopping and had some lunch together, and then afterwards they went to play tin pin bowling and went ice skating in the afternoon.

That evening they went to Mark and Ann place for dinner and to play card games for a few hours before Jack and Sam left to go home for the night.

The next day Jack and Sam spent the whole day together at home, talking, laughing, and playing games. Later that afternoon, Sam started packing things up that she would be taking with her to the dorm for the week. When she finishes she walks down stairs to see Jack dishing up their evening meal.

"Mmm smells good"

"Good cause it is ready"

He put the pots back into the sink, while Sam picked up the plates and walked over to the dining room table and put them down before she sat down herself. Jack got them a drink each before joining Sam at the table. They both talked while they ate their dinner.

After dinner was finished, they did the dishes together, then they sat down and watched some TV for a while, Sam was snuggling up to Jack side with his arm around her shoulders.

When it was time, Sam and Jack went and got her bags and typewriter and took them down and put them into the truck then they walked back inside to get their jackets, boots and hats on. Then they walked back and got in the truck then they left to drive to Denver.

"Sam your back" one of them said

"Yep I'm back, how were your holidays?"

"They were great, you?"

"Ok, thanks for the warning"

"Well you sure making up for it now?"

"I know, talk to you later"

"Ok" then they carry on walking till they got to the top of the stairs

"Shields off" then they saw the blue glow for a second.

When they reach Sam's door she makes it unlock, so all she has to do is open it. When she did the girl from room two open her door

"So you're the one who got room one" Sam turn to her

"So, what you problem"

"I wanted that room"
