TEAL'C CAN KEEP A SECRET

After the wedding ceremony, the newlyweds and their friends went to Sam's brother's home for a non-traditional reception. The reception was a casual mid autumn affair in Mark's backyard, actually a clambake. Jack's idea. Everyone, including the bride and groom changed into casual clothing. They simply relaxed and had a good time. No expectations or stilted traditions, just a great party and send-off for the newlyweds.

Of course, they did keep one tradition -- a totally non-traditional Jello wedding cake. Can't have a party without cake.

"Great cake, Jack. Nothing I've ever seen at a wedding reception before, but great cake." Daniel commented.

"Well, Danny boy, as you know I pride myself on creativity. Seriously, thanks for everything today…and the last few days." At that moment Sam and Janet came up to join Jack and his best man.

"So where are you two going on this top secret honeymoon?" Janet asked.

"If we told you, Doc, it wouldn't be top secret, now would it," Jack supplied helpfully, grinning at Sam, now standing close by his side.

"What if we need to reach you? Hey, the world may need saving in the next 10 days."

"Well Danny in the case of a real emergency, say a power failure that cuts off my recording of the Simpsons, T knows where to find me. As for saving the world, we're going to leave that up to you for a few days."

"Very funny, Jack. I'm deeply wounded that Teal'c knows where you guys are going and I don't," he added with mock indignation.

"T can keep a secret."

"Indeed, Daniel Jackson. O'Neill knows that I will conceal the location of his wedding trip even under the duress of your torture," the Jaffa said with a sly half smile directed at his teammate.

OoOoOo

About 2 hours into their reception, amid enthusiastic applause and good wishes, Jack and Sam said their goodbyes and were on their way to an undisclosed location for their honeymoon.
