A/N This is a changed version of the old chapter 11 sinceI decided it was not SG1 like!As I mentioned, this is an AU so any inaccuracies with the military are dealt with


Chapter 11- Giggles and Generals

"Honestly Carter, I cant take you anywhere!" Jack leaned his elbows on the table and look and the woman sitting across from him. The window behind her showed a beautiful starry night, which acted as an impressive backdrop for the stunning Sam Carter.

"Sorry hiccup Jack! It's just that story made me laugh! I can't believe you did that!" Sam then immediately collapsed on the table with laughter.

"Then it's a good thing we ordered room service instead of going to a restaurant aint it? Didn't want ya embarrassing me did I?"

Sam sat up and took a sip of her wine before saluting.

"No, General O'Neill sir"

"Funny!"

"I like to think so!"

He then gently grabbed her wrist and pulled her towards him moving in to kiss her. Just as their lips met, Jacks cell phone rang.

He answered the phone right before Sam screeched:

"Not a-bloody-gain!"

"Jack?"

"Yes sir, what can I do for you this fine evening?"

"I'm not interrupting anything am I?"

"No sir. What would make you think that?"


Sam rolled her eyes at this comment and set about opening the bag that Cassie had packed for her.

"I am never giving that girl my house key to 'use my laptop' again"


"Well's its just that I heard my god-daughter swearing when you picked up the phone-how is Sam by the way?"

"She's peachy"

"Glad to hear it"

"With all due respect sir, was there a reason for this or is it a social call?"

"Your request has been approved Jack. She'll get her birds by the end of the year."

"That doesn't help the situation"

"I knew you were going to say that! Sam is being taken of as CO of SG1 and she is going to be the head of the science and research side of the base. And before you ask Jack, she'll report directly to me. You aren't in her chain of command at all, not even indirectly."

"I don't know what to say sir"

"Just go and tell her everything-about the birds, her new command and maybe a joint something else?"

"George, you sly old dog!"

"Well Jack, I try!"

"Thanks again sir"

"Anything for my favourite couple and make sure you take good care of her."

"I will"

"Goodbye Jack"

" Night"


Sam was starting to get scared by her date's conversation. She knew he was talking to General Hammond and was worried he was being reassigned. She sat on the side of the bed and a lone tear fell from her eyes.
Jack hung up the phone and turned to Sam with a huge gleaming smile on his face

"No matter how many years of blacks ops training you do, when you're this happy you cant hide it"

He saw Sam sitting quietly on the bed facing away from him

"Sam?" No answer

"Sam?" Still no answer

He walked over to her and knelt down by her so he could look her straight in the eyes

"Sam what's wrong?"

"Sam what's wrong?" The one tear become many as she cried and threw her arms round him trying to tell him what she was scared of. All Jack's ears could hear was "…………….assigned…I thi………ve you…leave..."

He lifted her chin and kissed away the tears from her strikingly beautiful features. Her eyes looked light blue as they were filled with tears yet to fall

"I think I have some explaining to do" he whispered as he pulled her closer into his embrace
