I'm Ba-ack!!! Refreshed from my vacation and ready to write. Here is the next chapter!
2005
They set a date. It was months and months away, but they had still set a date. Sam couldn't believe it was actually happening. She was actually getting married. She was picking out paper for the invitations and Joe had already decided on the venue. An outdoor wedding at his parent's country club.
Thoughts of her wedding and marriage filled her mind. She could barely focus on her work for the Aschen. She felt like she was about to burst from all the excitement she was holding inside of her. She'd tell everyone how happy she was. Everyone shared in her happiness - well, almost everyone.
Jack had found out. Daniel had told him. Apparently, Jack spontaneously combusted right then and there. It was like he knew something that Sam didn't. She couldn't figure out why Jack d Joe so much. Maybe if he just got to know Joe, he'd see what a great guy he was. On the other hand, he might him more if he knew he'd been wrong about him.
Sam had thought she knew Jack so well, could feel his pain, could understand why he was the way he was. She had even prided herself on it, once upon a time. But now, it seemed she had never known the real Jack at all. Maybe he was on his best behavior... maybe he was just that way because of the Stargate program, Sam didn't know. But she did know that she didn't like the 'real' Jack. Not a bit.
It's short, I know... but I'll be uploading two chapters today to make up for the lapse. :D
Please review and let me know what you thought! Thanks for reading!
