They did spend the weekend together, walking, shopping, swimming, laughing, talking, and having a great time.
On Monday morning Sam returned back to the university for the week. Over the next month has been busy for Sam with tests and SA that she needed to do.
The first weekend of September, was the karate championship. Jack was lucky that the team wasn't called away for a mission. When they got to the stadium, Sam passed Jack her rings then he gave her a kiss before she walked away to the team locker room.
Jack walked out to where the supporter's areas are and sat down. He knew all he could do was wait. He looks around to see if he recognises any one. When he did he saw Sam academy classmates there in one area, then he saw reporters and news crew all over the supporters area.
He knew that this year is a big year for Sam. He notices some of Sam University class mates and other air force cadets that Sam knows. Then he saw Mark and Ann walk in, he waves them over only to see Phillip and Tracey behind them. When they walk over to where Jack was, they all smile
"Hi Jack how Sam?"
"She ready to kick ass" they laugh
"I bet, there sure is a crowd here today"
"Yeah, I notice that also, shall we" they all sat down and talked.
Jack looked around and spotted two people which shocked him, then he looked around to see who else was there. He saw the top brass there wearing civvies like they did last year.
When it was time he turned to see all the teams walking out and sitting down in their area. Ten minutes later the first lots of names were called out then it started. When it was Sam, turn every one watch Sam and she knocks her appondant down every time.
Over the next few hours have been interesting. When it got to the quarter finals, Sam was up against a guy whom she saw him fight. Just before they were to fight, Sam closed her eyes for a few seconds then opened them again, then she looked into her opponent's green eyes for a few seconds before they bowed, then the fight began.
Sam knew he played ruff so she did as well. She won her three rounds and went up to the next level. When it came to the final. Sam was up against the same kid from last year. When it was almost time for the fight, Sam walked over to where Jack is and they held onto each other's hands while looking into each other's eyes then they let go and smiled before Sam turned around and walked over to the mat, then the fight began.
When it started they all watched as Sam won her first round. When they bow to each other, he went to punch her, only for her to stop him, then before he knew it he was on his back and Sam was awarded the second point.
When he got up, Sam could see he was getting angry. So then they bow to the refs and they started to bow, Sam saw him move and he went to punch Sam in the stomach, only for her to see it coming and quickly wack his hand down before he hit her.
Every one was shock and the ref spoke to the guy and gave him a warning. Then the return to their spot and they bow again to the ref then to each other. The guy was starting to punch Sam only having her stop each punch and was able to knock him down face first and to win not just the last point but the championship for the fourth year in a row.
When she won, everyone went crazy and her teammates ran out onto the mat to congratulate her. The media went crazy taking photos, recording everything. When it did finally settle down, the trophies were given out. When it came to first place, everyone heard.
"Colorado state champion for the fourth year in a row is Samantha Carter" every one went clapping and cheering Sam on as she walked over to get her trophy.
"Samantha Carter is the only female to win the championship and the only person in Colorado history to win it four years in a row at the age of fifteen years old"
Every one cheers Sam on as she raises her trophy above her head with a smile on her face as reporters take photos of her. When it was settled down, the announcer said a few words while the photographer took photos of the ones with their trophies.
When it was over everyone got up and mingled. Jack walked over to Sam and he gave her a hug and picked her up at the same time then they kissed at the same time photographers were taking pictures of them kissing and hugging. When he put her back on the ground, they turned to the cameras as they were having their photo taken.
Then the media started asking them questions, which they were able to answer. Ten minutes later Sam turned and walked into the changing rooms while Jack was left with the media. He spoke to them for a few minutes before he left when he saw Sam waiting for him.
When he walked over to her they walked out together and headed back to his place for a barbecue party. On the way, Jack slips Sam rings back onto her fingers since she was driving. When they got home there were cars and vans already there.
"Well shall we go and join the party"
"After I put my bag away"
"Of cause"
They both got out and walked up to the front door and opened it, they could hear music that was playing, people talking and laughing. Sam went up stairs to put her bag away while Jack walked out back to see everyone having a good time. Mark walk over to Jack
"Here you house key" he passed Jack the key back and put it in his pocket
"Thanks, did you manage to find everything ok?"
"Yes we did, where Sam?"
"Putting her bag away"
"Ok, Sam getting better every year with her karate"
"Yes she is and her speed getting faster also and she getting stronger every year"
"How much is she pumping now?"
"Her bench press is seventy kilos, the way she going by next year she would be doing one hundred"
"Wow, how much are you doing?"
"Me, two hundred, I might have to have a little chic chat to the ancients about what abilities we have got"
"I'm sure you will find out what you both got in due time"
"Yeah, I guess you're right, I'm going to get a drink." Then he walks down to where the drinks are.
Once he got himself a drink he walked over to the barbecue and fired it up. By that time Sam walks outside and looks around before she walks over to where the drinks are and she gets herself a soda, then she talks to some of the guests there.
Then she started going back and forth making sure there were plenty of snacks for everyone and she got Jack the homemade patties, bacon, and wieners so he could start cooking. While he was busy doing that, Sam was in the kitchen cutting the rolls and buns. When Mark walk into the kitchen he saw what Sam was doing
"Need any help?"
"Yep can you take the plates and salads outside"
"Sure, oh you're out of chips?"
"In the pantry"
Mark walk over and open up the pantry, he got three packets of chips out then he was looking for the plates till he saw them move till they were in front of him, so he grab them
"Thanks"
Then he close the door and walk outside to full the bowls up then he return with the empty packets and put them in the rubbish then he got the salads out when Ann walk into the kitchen
"Need any help Sam"
"Yep take these out to Jack" she pass Ann a tray full of buns and rolls
"Sure"
"Take the sauces with you as well"
"Good idea"
She went to the fridge and got the two bottles of sauces out and then she picked up the tray and walked outside with them all. Sam stopped and looked out the window while she was taking a mouthful of her drink. She notice that they were almost out of beer and sodas, so she went to the pantry and pick up four boxes and put them on the breakfast bar then she return back to cutting up the rolls again.
When Mark walk in side "Mark can you take the drinks out and put them on ice, oh you better go to the freezer to get more ice out while you are at it"
"Ok Jack said to tell you"
"I heard"
"Oh" then he walk down to the laundry room where the big freezer is
He picks up two bags of ice out of the freezer and walks back into the kitchen where Ann walks in so he passes her the ice while he picks up two of the drinks and they walk outside again. When Sam did up enough rolls and buns, she cleaned up and walked outside and over to where Jack was.
"Hey here I save you a hot dog"
"Thanks Jack" he passed her the hotdog with mustard and onions on it and he watched her as she took a bite of it.
"Good?" he asked
"Yes it is thanks" They look around to see everyone having a good time.
They talk for a couple of minutes before Sam leaves to mingle for a while. When Jack finishes with the barbecue he cleans it up before joining everyone else. By the time the last of the guests left, it was after eleven that evening.
"What a day" Sam said after the door was close
"Yes it sure was, miss kick ass champ" Sam laugh
"Thank, I don't know about you, but I'm going to bed"
"That sounds like a good idea" They we at the bottom on the stairs when the phone rang so they walk into the kitchen and Jack answer it
"Hello"
"Jack, it mark turn your TV on the sports channel, they going to talk about the karate championship in couple of minutes"
"Ok, thanks" then they hung up. Sam walks already in the living room looking at the TV when Jack walks in.
They sat down and waited for a couple of minutes when the newsreaders talked about what happened that afternoon.
"Kelly what else has been happening today"
"Well Jim in Colorado was holding the state karate championship and a young teenager name Samantha Carter who is only fifteen years old has became the youngest state four times champion"
"Fifteen that is young"
"It is, here is our news reporter from the Denver stadium who watch the championship, Joan"
"Evening every one, today was indeed a special day here in Denver, with Samantha Carter making Colorado history when she won the karate championship for the fourth year in a row"
"Joan what can you tell us about how she did it?"
"Well she was fast, her opponent didn't stand a chance against her, this was how she won her fourth title"
Then it showed what happened and how she won. Then it was back to Kelly and Jim in the newsroom, they were shock
"Wow that is fast, is it true that she got a lot of support behind Samantha Carter?" Jim asked
"Yes over two thirds of the supportive where there to see and watch Sam win her title"
"Was there any one special there for her?"
"Yes when I did asked Sam afterwards, she quote 'Every one here to support me is special to me'"
"What can you tell us about Samantha Carter?"
"Sam, she like to be called Sam" she said smiling
"From what I've found out from some of her supportive, she in her final year at the Denver university getting her doctor degree in astrophysics, she already got her PHD in biology and physics"
"Wow a scientist, what her goals, any ideas?"
"Yes when I spoke to her today, this is what she had to say" then it shows after the competition with Jack next to her
"Sam what are your plans for the future?""Well for starters for me to finish and graduate from university, get my drivers licence and plan our wedding" she said as she put her arm around Jack's waist as she put his arm around her shoulder.
"But the legal age is eighteen"
"Yes that it true but with a sign consent form from a parent or guardian they can get married at sixteen or seventeen"
"Has your parents given you the approval and what about the age gap?"
"My brother is my guardian and the age gap, we aren't worried about it, our family and friends are happy for us and to us that is what is important"
"Have you set a date for your wedding?"
"June next year and it going to be big" she said smiling
"How big?"
"About twelve hundred guests"
"That is a lot of guests"
"It is and no media aloud, but we are planning on selling copy of our wedding photos to the highest bidder and the money were are donating to the homeless shelter here in Colorado"
"That is a good idea, the wedding is going to cost a lot of money. How are you going to pay for it?"
"My inheritance is going to pay for our wedding" Jack said
"Ok well good luck to you both"
"Thank you" then it return back to Joan
"As you can see from the interview that both Samantha Carter and Jack O'Neill are indeed happy, I've spoken to some of their family, friends. Workmates and classmates about the couple and they all say the same thing, that they are happy for them both and can tell that they are in love"
"Any ideas on who going to be walking Sam down the aisle?"
"Yes Phillip Carter, Sam uncle is walking her down the aisle"
Jack and Sam watch TV for the next few minutes before Jack turn the TV off and turn and look at Sam
"Well now everyone now knows about you winning" Sam smile
"I know, let go to bed it been a long day"
"Yes it has been alright"
They walk out of the living room, turning the lights off along the way and walking up stairs to their bedrooms. Jack gave Sam a kiss before she walked into her room for the night and Jack went into his.
