CH 131
When they stopped at the women shop that was in town, she paid for the taxi fare before getting out with her bag and walking into the shop.
Sam showed Lisa picture magazines on what her and Jack wanted. While talking Lisa wrote everything down. By the time they got things sorted out Sam didn't believe it had been an hour.
"Sounds like you and Jack got everything you both wanted, can I asked to ask couple of questions"
"Sure"
"How many are going to be at the wedding?"
"About fourteen hundred" Lisa was shocked. The most she handle was four hundred at a wedding, nothing this big
"Wow that is a lot are they all family?"
On my side of the family, they're over two hundred there only, with Jack, he got no living family"
"Ok what about the rest?"
"There are Jack air force workmates and partners, there about four hundred plus. Then there is friends from my martial arts class, that another three hundred and there is other as well"
"Wow you know this is going to cost"
"We know and we not on any budget but there is going to be a few VIP so there going to be a lot of security at the wedding and afterwards"
"Ok you said that there won't be any media there?"
"That right, we have had letters from different magazines who want to publish our wedding photos so we sent them all a letter back and told them that we will sell the photos to the highest bidder and the money going to charity"
"Wow that is a good idea"
"We know," she said smiling
"What happens if one gets into the wedding?"
They won't get in and try to take photos, that is why I said before that there would be a list of guests who will be at the wedding. They will all know that they will have to have some sort of ID on them and the ones like from my martial arts class with have a separate innovation cause they won't have any ID"
"Good idea is there anything else?" Sam looked over everything she had written down
"No I think that is everything"
"What about your wedding cake topper
"We got our wedding cake topper piece made. Jack knows someone who makes bride and grooms"
"Ok sounds like I've got a lot to work to do"
"Well you do have six months"
"True I hope this would be a piece of cake, I hope It will be I know you can handle it. It will be a piece of cake well it is going to be a big piece" Lisa laugh as they stood up and shook hands just as a couple walk in the shop
"Well I'll give you a call in few days"
"Ok, talk to you then"
Then Sam smile at the shock couple as she walk past them and walk outside when she heard
"Do you know who that was that just walked out the door?" the women said
"Yes why do you know her?"
"That is Samantha Carter, four time karate champion and a hero" Lisa looked at the couple in shock
"You mean that was thee Samantha Carter the one who saved the west coast last year from the teariest attack
"Yep, the one and only, you should be honour to do her wedding"
"I am" Sam walked away with a smile on her face.
She walked down to where the drivers licence building is and walked in and up to the counter. She spoke to a woman there and passed her the papers over then Sam filled out the papers for the drivers' licence and showed the woman her passport for her ID. The women look it over and fill out a sheet of paper then she pass Sam her passport back
"Follow me" Sam followed the women to where Sam got her photo taken and then had her eyes tested which she passed.
Then she was taken into a room where there was a table and chairs. Sam sat down and the woman passed Sam her written papers and pen. Then she walked out the door. Sam looks it over and fills out everything.
Then she doubles check before standing up and picking up her bag and walking out of the room. She walks back over to the counter and passes both pen and test back to the women who check and mark the results. Then she picked up the phone and made a call then hung up. She then turn to Sam
"Congratulations, you pass"
"Thank you"
Then a guy who was in his fifties walk into the room, he walk over to where Sam is
"Miss Carter if you will come with me please"
Sam follows the guy outside and around the corner to where a car that they are going to be using. Sam got into the driver's seat and put her bag into the back seat then she put her seat belt on.

Sam started up the car and turned the heater on and pushed a couple of buttons so the windows would demis till she was able to see out the window. Then she put it into gear and pull of hand brake off
"Left or right?"
"Right"
Sam moved ford and turned her indicator on and looked both ways before driving out onto the road. The guy told Sam what to do and she followed his instructions. They were away for twenty minutes.
When they return, Sam does what she does in Jack truck or with a driving instructor. When done she passed the keys back to him then he got out while Sam got her bag. Then she got out and followed the guy back inside and waited. Ten minutes later he walk out and over to her

She walked down the street till she came to where the supermarket is. She walked in and brought some things for home. Then she got into a taxi that was at a taxi stand and headed on home.
When she got home she paid the driver before getting out with the bags before closing the door and walking up to the front door and opening it. Once inside and the door was closed, she took her jacket, boots and hat off before taking her thing into the kitchen.
She put the kettle on then she put the groceries away then she made herself a cup of hot chocolate then she sat down and relaxed. After lunch she just finished folding the towels when she heard Jack truck pull up, so she walked out to greet him.

"Training was cancelled this afternoon there avalanche warning, so that is why I'm home, how your morning been"
"Good I've seen and talk to lisa, she going to get things sorted out and give up a call in few days and I've got my drivers licence"
"Hey that is wonderful news, I'm proud of you Sam"
"Thanks" he gives her another kiss
"How about we go out and celebrate"
"Jack it three in the afternoon"
"I know I was planning on buying you a car for when you do get your licence and now that you got it, and I got the afternoon off and it might be the only time we will have together for a while"
"You're right, why not but it won't be a car"
"What did you have in mind?"
"This" then the local paper floated into the foliar and into Sam's hand. She opened it and showed Jack what she wanted. When he saw it, it was a 1985 Cherokee pioneer four door jeep truck. He looked at it, then to Sam
"Are you sure Sam?"
"Yes look what it says, it got both two and four wheel drive, turbo diesel and it got a towbar which can handle up to eight thousand pounds" Jack read what it says and nodded
"Well then are you sure" he looked at her and saw her smile
"Well then let's go and get your present" Sam hugged him then gave him a kiss.
"I love you so much," she said
"I know you do, come on let's go and spend some money"
Sam put her boots and jacket one then her bag floated in to the foliar and in to her hand. They walk out the door and lock it then they walk down and get into Jack truck and head into town. When they stop outside the car sales yard, they both get out and walk over to where the wagons are.

Jack pulled out his wallet then his credit card while Sam was filling out the paperwork.
"None, just the one payment on the card" Jack said as he pass his credit card over to the guy
"Ok, I'll need you to fill out this then sir"
He passes Jack a sheet of paper and pen so he could fill out the paperwork. By that time Sam finishes filling out the forms and passes them back to the guy, whom he looks over at Sam.
"Everything done"

"Yep" then she turn to Jack
"See you at home"
"Ok Sam be careful out there"
"I know" then she turned to the guy and shook his hand

They watched her get into the truck and started it up. They watch her back up carefully then she turns and drives out the exit and is gone. Jack turn to the guy
"How much would I get for my truck"

She got out and made the door close while she closed and locked her wagon up then she walked inside and waited for Jack.
Twenty minutes later Sam heard a truck pull up outside, so she went to see whom it was. When she saw it was Jack smiling at her, she quickly put her boots and jacket on then she got her bag before walking out to his new truck.
When she saw it was like hers, his is a two door and it was green. She got in the passenger side and look at him as she put her seat belt on, she notice he was still smiling

"Yep and I got this, you like?"
"Yes it like mine but mine a four door and mine is blue"
"True, where do you want to go since it is after five?"
"Mexican"
"Sounds good to me"
Then he drives them to a Mexican family restaurant for dinner. When they got there, there were only seven tables that had already got customers. When they were seated they ordered soda each and what they wanted for dinner.
