A/N: I'm back. I would have update this story sooner but I wanted to write a proper chapter. Hope it's good.
Chapter 6
Jack and Sam entered General Hammond's office and after exchanging salutations they sat down.
- So what can I do for you?
They looked at each other for courage but found none. This was even harder than they thought. General Hammond was their friend and they had betrayed him by not telling him what had happen.
- Is everything alright?
- No sir. We have a problem.
- What kind of problem?
- A personal kind of problem.
- Personal?
- Sir. How can I say this? I… We… It…
- Major get to the point.
Sam closed her eyes and whispered in one breath.
- I'm pregnant.
- What did you just say?
- I'm pregnant sir.
General Hammond looked like he was having a hearth attack. He turned white then blue and finally red.
- Please tell me that you're here only as a CO that is worried about his 2IC. Please tell me that you didn't do … Anything.
- Sir, I am the father.
General Hammond turned his back at them. He wasn't saying anything so they continued.
- It was an accident.
At this the older man faced them and started shouting.
- An Accident? How could that be an accident? What? You felt on top of her?
He turned his back at them again. He was breathing deeply and trying to calm down.
- Sir, We've loved each other in secret for years. I'm sorry that this happened like this. But a part of me is glad that it happened.
Sam looked at him with a tender look in her eyes. The General was clam now.
- I've known for a while that you had feelings for each other. I should have moved one of you to a different team. I thought you could handle it. SG-1 is a great team and you work well together. I just didn't want to destroy your team.
- Sir, we thought we could handle it too. And we were the ones that should have come to you and tell you what was going on between us.
- What do you mean you between you?
- Oh, nothing. We never did anything. Until a month ago that is. I was talking about our feelings.
- A month ago? Why didn't you tell me?
- Because it was a one time situation. It would never happen again. We came back to work and forgot all about it. At least we tried to forget about it.
- Sir, if it hadn't been for this…surprise we wouldn't have told you. It was something that was over. A foolish mistake that we put behind us.
- You should have told me. But I see your point. If you had told me that would have been official.
- We should have told you as a friend. And we're sorry we didn't.
- It's ok. So what are you going to do?
- We're going to face the consequences together. Whatever is coming we can handle it as long as we are together.
- I'm going to try to help you but for the time being you are both under suspension. I'm sorry about shouting at you. This just took me by surprise.
- It's ok sir.
They got up to leave.
- Jack wait.
- I'll be at my office.
-I'll meet you there.
Sam left and Jack sat down again.
- You two are going to be the death of me.
- I'm sorry.
- It's ok. I'm not mad.
- Why?
- Because I'm your friend. And as your friend I want to see you happy. No one deserves happiness more than you two. You have suffered more in this life that anyone could even begin to imagine. Think of this as your second chance.
- You mean the baby?
- I mean Sam. She's one of a kind. And she really loves you. It visible a mile away.
- I love her too.
- I'm just sorry about the circumstances.
- Me too. This is going to be difficult. For both of us. I just wish I could protect Sam and the baby from it.
- I'll talk to the president. Maybe I can do something about it. You two have saved Earth more time that I can count. You deserve some benefits.
- Thanks George.
- Oh, and congratulations.
Jack smirked.
- Thanks. I can't believe it that I'm going to be a father again. And having a child with Sam it's… overwhelming.
- I think you two are going to be alright.
- Hopefully.
Meanwhile Sam was in her office packing some things she was going to need. There was no way of telling how long the suspension was going to last.
- Hey Sam. How are you?
- Daniel. I'm fine. Thanks for asking.
- So…
- So?
- What are you going to do?
- About what?
- Well. This whole…situation.
Sam smiled.
- I know what you talking about. I was just toying with you.
- I see you're in a good mood.
- Yeah for someone that just got suspended.
- You got suspended? What happened?
Before Sam could start telling him about the conversation Jack entered her office.
- Hey guys. Daniel I wanted to ask you…
Daniel punched Jack and he felt to the floor.
