The 12 Days of Christmas: SGC Style

Excerpt from the diary of Colonel Samantha Carter

20th December. 5 days until Christmas

Well, I am now officially nervous. I walked into the commissary today to get some jello, and walked into instant silence. Everyone just instantly shut up. I'm suspicious now. Vala and Daniel are behind this, of that I am sure. But what it is, I don't know. They're planning something, something I'm not supposed to know about. But anyway, moving on from their suspicious plotting, I think Daniel may have listened to my advice about Vala. They seem closer that they were before. I would ask Vala, but chances are that she'll just tell me anyway. Vala is very keen on everything Christmas, so has instituted an SG1 Secret Santa, to be given on Christmas day at Daniel's house. I got Teal'c. So I have to go find something else for him. I'm thinking chocolate. Teal'c has always been keen on that.

Sam looked up at the doorway to her lab. She had a hunch that Vala would be arriving shortly. She was not wrong. Less than a minute later, Vala bounded into the lab, looking excited.

"Guess what!"

"Daniel asked you out?" Sam replied.

Vala frowned. "How'd you guess? Did he tell you?"

"No, he didn't tell me." Sam grinned at Vala. "He asked you out, huh?"

Vala nodded exuberantly. "Yep. We're having dinner on New Year's Eve."

"Oh, where are you going?" Sam asked.

"No where special. Everything's fully booked, so he's going to make me dinner at his place. Just the two of us."

Sam smiled. "I hope it works out for you."

"So do I." Vala replied. "But I think it will. If I try harder to not say or do stupid things around him."

"So..." Sam decided to change the subject. "Party planning done?"

"Yup, it's all ready, we just have to pick up the food on Saturday morning and set up the decorations."

"It sounds like it's going to be a good party." Sam said.

"I think it will be." Vala replied. She looked like she wanted to say something else, but she didn't. She got up and left Sam sitting alone in her lab, contemplating what the other members of her team could possibly be hiding.

A/N: So what are they hiding??? Find out soon. :D

Sorry it's so short.
