Thank you for the many wonderful comments I have received about Chapter 1. I hope you will continue to like my vision. It's one of those stories that have just been screaming to get out of my mind and heart and into your minds and hearts. Keep reviewing; I love knowing what you think!
Jack hurried out of the Briefing room.
She's dating someone! His thoughts screamed.
Thoughts continued racing through his head. Why didn't I know before? Why did I have to find out at all?
Things were so much simpler when he thought she practically lived at the lab.
Of course, he knew it was only going to be a matter of time before she decided to be seriously involved with someone. For heaven's sake, she was the best woman on the face of the planet. Any man not able to see that was blind.
If only there weren't any stupid frat regs! He kept telling himself that he didn't want to ruin her career, but it was more than that. He was afraid to finally tell her how he felt, just in case she didn't feel the same way.
Well, he thought, the most important thing is that she's happy. If she is, I'm not going to mess it up by throwing myself at her feet.
So, with a deep breath, Jack got into the elevator and left the SGC. But his heart never left.
Again, just push the little periwinkle-colored button. That's all it takes . . .
Sorry it's so short. I think this story will be in a lot of bite-sized chunks . . . it'll be better this way, just like Chocolate . . . Hmmm.
