Author's Notes:
Ok, as much as I'd love for Jack and Sam to give in and have a mushy, sweet love scene it's just not something they would do. So in an effort to stay as close as possible to the characters, I try to keep to the storyline, just giving you a look at what (I think) is going on in their heads. Enjoy!
And of course, I do not own Jack, Sam, or anything else in the Stargate universe. If I did, Jack and Sam would have been together already for cryin' out loud!

It was over.
She had been on the run, hunted like an animal for three days but now, finally, it was over. The pounding adrenaline that had kept her going despite her injures and fear now came crashing down. It had been like the power surge before a short circuit. As the reality that it was finally over began to sink in so did the fact that she had barely escaped with her life, as well as the key to the one effective weapon against Anubis' super soldiers. But she had fought for those three days and she had escaped…now there was no more fight left in her. Just seconds ago she had been tough, determined Major Carter; now she was just Sam, broken from all that she had been through. She didn't want anyone to see her like this…but then again if someone had to, Jack was the one that she wouldn't mind as much.
If her father was here he would fret and worry over his baby girl.
If Pete was here he would worry too, asking countless questions that couldn't be brushed off with just an "I'll be fine."
But Jack.…
"Come here"
Sam slid closer under the offered arm, allowing herself to feel safe for the first time in three days
...Jack just knew what to do.
