December 16th - Mistletoe
As soon as Sam stepped through the door, she was attacked. Combat survival instincts took over, and her knee came up to teach the assailant a painful lesson even as she tried to turn her upper body away without dropping her armload of gifts. The other combatant was far too wily for her, and soon had her locked in a brief kiss.
The colonel was in "one of those moods", apparently.
"Sir?" she questioned warily.
"Mistletoe," he answered cheekily, pointing upward at the tiny sprig of greenery above the door. Rolling her eyes, Sam began to turn away, but caught a glimpse of motion outside the window.
It was Daniel, coming up the walk with a stack of presents in his arms.
"Uh, sir, you really shouldn't--"
"Don't warn him, Carter."
Shaking her head, Sam headed into the den to deposit her gifts under the tree. When she glanced at Teal'c, the smug look the Jaffa gave her indicated he had been successful in staving off the colonel's "Christmas cheer".
The door swung open then, and Sam glanced up. From this angle, her view was blocked by the door, but her hearing was unaffected.
"Hi, Jack! What the...? Mmmmph!"

Oh, that Jack and his wicked sense of humor...
