Chapter 4

Author's notes- sorry it took me so long to update so much work and things to do that are never ending… I hope you like it.

"Hey Pete, its Sam."

"Hi…did something happen? Are you okay?"

"Yeah, you told me to call you after I talked to the person who needed my help," she said.

"Oh yeah, sorry… so who needed to talk to you?" Pete asked. Sam was debating whether or not to tell Pete that she had hung up on him to talk to Jack. She was sure Pete had no idea about her feelings for him and would not question the subject as to which they discussed.

So she decided she would tell him, "General O'Neill."

So many questions flashed into his head. Pete told him self that it must have been purely work related she wouldn't hang up on him, her Fiancé, to talk to Jack O'Neill or would she. No, no Sam wouldn't cheat on him. It must have been something work related.

"Oh something important work related or not?" Did I just say that Pete thought? What is she going to say?

"Just about a letter he wrote to the President. General O'Neill has a list although I haven't seen the final copy, the things he got passed were very very good ideas."

"Like what," Pete was curious what a man as stupid as O'Neill was doing in charge of a top secret base as the SGC.

"umm SG-1 gets to go on a cruise in a few weeks, Jack gets a ship named after him when he retires… and yeah and one other." She just called him Jack Sam, Pete and Jack all thought when they heard her response.

Pete was curious about the 'one other' but decided it wasn't the time to push it… a cruise. Them, his fiancé and her boss would be on a cruise a boat away from rules and regulations. He trusted her, right? Nothing would happen… but Jack O'Neill was probably the type of man who got whatever he wanted. Well maybe not his son died… years ago. And the guy was getting a space ship named after him. I really do wonder what else was on that list. Maybe Sam will find out and tell me. I am however probably the last person she would tell as to what Jack O'Neil had on his list.

"Pete?"

"Yeah sorry… just thinking."

"What about?" Did she really want to know Sam thought. As did Jack will they get into an argument and then Sam let it slip that he had a third request delivered.

"Um I'll tell you later over dinner tomorrow?" Although Pete intended to go surprise Sam that night; he would get off work, hopefully. He would drop by later. Pete doubted she actually had the courage to ask General Jack O'Neill to the movies without it sound like a date and he get the wrong idea that Pete's Sam had not interest in a General. Pete was unsure if that was actually true but he loved his idea and began planning it

"Yeah sure, till tomorrow. Bye." Sam then hung up the phone and turned to Jack.

"You called me Jack," He said.

"Well unless you want me to call you sir when were out on a date…"

"No, no I love it when you call me Jack… it sounds sexy."

Sam then proceeded to blush a dark red and turn away as did Jack when he realized he had said that out loud.

"Sorry"

"You don't need to be… Jack"

Now that he could get used to he thought. He was already loving it however complicated their relationship was. Perhaps it would land on the list of the most complicated relationships of all times. Well he really had no idea as to the problems other people faced… but then you look at the past eight years of his life. How many people save Earth for a living? Well actually he could count it up if he wanted but he didn't want to.

"Plans for our last night as friends…" He really would have to start thinking about what he said out loud and in his head.

"Dinner and movie at my house sound good?"

"Sure… when do you want to leave? So we can go pick up food and stop by the movie rental store."

"In two hours… it is four o'clock right now."

"See you topside at 6:15 sharp."

"I'll be there bye sir."

"Bye Sam."
