Interruptions
Chapter Twenty-Nine
Sam smiled at Jack. Jack smiled back.
"You're amazing." Jack said.
"You're brilliant." Sam replied.
"I'm so glad you married me."
"I'm so glad you wanted to marry me." Jack smiled, holding one of Sam's hands as they watched the sunset over the Southern Ocean. "Don't ever doubt how much I love you."
"I never will." Sam answered, leaning her head on Jack's shoulder. "As long as you don't doubt how much I love you."
Jack rested his head in top of Sam's. "I never will." He echoed Sam's words.
They were travelling around Australia for their honeymoon. They were currently in a small town on the south coast of Western Australia called Bremer Bay. They sun went down and still Sam and Jack sat on the beach, watching the ocean. Waves crashed in front of them and receded, only to be engulfed by more incoming waves.
Sam shut her eyes, listening to the waves. It was calming, and she felt herself drifting off.
Sam awoke with a start, and realised that she was in bed. In bed next to Jack. He smiled at her when he saw she was awake.
"I fell asleep?" Sam said.
"Yes, you did." Jack replied. "I bought you back here." He smiled again.
"I'm sorry." Sam said, reaching out and taking one of Jack's hands.
"It's okay." Jack replied, bringing her hand up to his mouth so he could kiss it gently.
Sam leant closer, and kissed Jack's lips instead.
The next morning was spent lounging around, and spending quality time with each other. Bremer Bay was a small town, with not much to do except go to various beaches, or fish at the estuary. Jack enjoyed setting up with his fishing rod at the estuary, and Sam, after years of claiming to not like fishing, admitted that she didn't mind it after all. She set up next to Jack, and was quite pleased when she caught the first fish.
"Beginner's luck." Jack said.
"Oh sure, whatever you say, sir." Sam replied, placing a heavy emphasis on the word 'sir.'
"You just watch it Carter. I could have you for insubordination."
"I'm sure." Sam replied. "You could but you won't. I'm your wife, that gives me automatic permission to be as insubordinate as I like."
Jack grinned at her. "I suppose I agree."
Sam smiled.
There were a number of other places Sam and Jack visited on their honeymoon, including Perth, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Hobart. They spent three days in Tasmania, which they both decided was definitely not enough time, and that they'd have to go back. They only ever stayed in one place for a few days, seeing as they had limited time before they were both due back in America to continue their work, Sam at the SGC, and Jack in Washington. Sam could see that there would be a lot of going back and forth between Colorado Springs and Washington DC happening in the future. Hopefully one day they'd be able to settle down in one town, but for now, Sam was content with her life.
A/N: Ah! Only one chapter to go, and then this, my longest story, is finished. Wow. Thanks for sticking with me :)
