3 weeks after her brothers death Samantha Carter was still grieving in her heart, but she had a boy and a girl to take care of now. She was secretly glad General O'Neill was about to retire, she was also glad that she had started escort on a house that was really big and new and best of all big! Sam was busy unpacking her and the kid's stuff from a big box when there was a knock at the front door. She got up walked to the door, looked out the peep hole and saw it was General O'Neill.
"What the heck is he doing here?" she though. She opened the door not wanting him to leave thinking no one was home.
"Hi Ja- General O'Neill." Sam said.
"Hi I just wanted to ask you a question actually two…" he said with a small smile.
"Ok shoot." Sam said as she crossed her arms.
"I was wondering if you knew that I was retiring and if you wouldn't mind if I stopped by to ask you another question afterwards?"
"Of course." Sam said.
"Great thanks and do you want some help unpacking at all?" asked Jack
"Yes tank you," said Sam
3 more weeks later Jack was retired and he was quite happy about it. He loved looking up at the stars until really late, to sleep in again, and to have to answer to anybody for what he did.
And 6 days later though it was clear to him that he needed to have one more thing in his life to make himself perfectly happy. The next morning Jack got out of bed early so that he could look end smell presentable to the person he was going to meet. So he brushed his teeth, put on his clothes picked a bucket of flowers from the grocery store picked up the tiny black box and tied it to the flowers and scuttled over to Sam's house. He knocked on the door and waited a total of 5 seconds before the door opened and Sam welcomed him in.
"You know that other question I said I would ask you?" he said with a nervous smile.
"Yeah…"
"Well here it goes..."
"Well?"
"Will you marry me?"
