I'm so sorry this took so long, my final exams start next week. I've studying like a crazy woman. Can't wait till high school is over!

Sheppard came out of his quarters and made his way over to Sam's. When he came around the corner Sheppard saw McKay walking back and forth in front of Sam's quarters. He was wearing a pair of dark brown pants and a black t-shirt.

"Hey Rodney, you could just chime the door instead of waiting for her to come out." Sheppard joked.

"Wh-what? I wasn't waiting. I just got here." McKay said looking at Sheppard. He waited a few seconds and when he noticed that Sheppard wasn't going to move he said:

"Are you going to chime the door or are you just going to wait?"

Sheppard chuckled and chimed the door. A few seconds later Sam opened the door

"Hey guys."

Jennifer and Teyla exited the small bathroom in Sam's quarters. Jennifer gave Teyla a nudge and said "he looks hot!" while looking at Sheppard whom was wearing a pair of casual black jeans and a white shirt with the top two buttons unbuttoned.

Sheppard just grinned and walked up to Teyla whose face was turning a deep shade of red and he offered her his arm.

"Are you coming?"

Teyla accepted his arm and gave him shy smile. He toughed she looked beautiful. She was wearing a dark brown, mixed with red dress, it had a split from her upper leg and it had a low V cut. When he walked past McKay he whispered:

"See, you should just have chimed the door."

McKay gave him an angry glare, but when he saw Jennifer watching him questioningly he smiled at her and asked her "shall we, eh go?" He was a taken aback when he saw her dress. She was wearing a dark green dress with a very low cut back.

"Sure" Jennifer said, and she gave Sam a smile and said:

"See you in a minute with your general" and giggled. When they walked out of Sam's quarters she said:

"By the way, John doesn't look as hot as you." Rodney turned bright red upon hearing this.

Sam looked at her clock on her desk and saw that she had a little over fifteen minutes before her general would be there. 'Damn now she was thinking of him as 'her' general'. Since she had fifteen minutes she could look over the report from a science team about PJR- 67L and she sat down behind her desk to open the file on her computer. She was fully wrapped up in her work when her door chimed.

When Jack had chimed the door three times he just opened it. He walked through the door and started grinning. Of course she would be working. He walked up to her and whispered in her ear.

"What'cha doing Carter?"

Sam jumped at hearing his voice. She hadn't even heard him come in. She turned her head to him and saw that he was smiling at her.

"I was just looking at the report form one of the teams, they found some kind of ancient technology but they can't figure out how it works. They can't find a way to power it up. I think that if we bring one of our naquadah generator we can make sure that the machine powers up. because of the particles..."

"Stop" Jack said and he put his finger on her lips. When she stopped talking he removed his hand and said:

"Carter. We're going to a party. You're going to stop working and come with me." His head was still only a few inches away from Sam's.

Sam blushed and when she stopped babbling she actually noticed how close he was.

"Yes, sir." She said.

"Good lets go." He said walking towards her bed to get her crutches. He turned to her and he gave her his especially for her reserved smile and said:

"And Sam, tonight it's Jack. It's a party, nothing work related."

"Okay.. Jack." She said smiling while they walked out together.

"You want to dance?" Jack asked.

"Jack I'm on crutches, what makes you think I can dance?" Sam asked.

"That's absolutely no problem." Jack said holding out his hand with a boyish grin on his face. He was up to something, but she grabbed his hand anyway and stood up while leaning on her good leg. But Jack grabbed her crutches and handed it to her.

"Jennifer would you mind walking with us towards the dance floor?" He asked and his face just lit up in amusement.

'Oh God, what have I gotten myself into?' Sam toughed when she heard Jennifer saying:

"Of course!" They walked towards the dance floor. When they got to the middle of the dance floor Jennifer said:

"You can give those crutches to me." Then she leaned a little bit to Sam and whispered: "have fun" and took Sam's crutches and walked away.

Sam turned towards Jack who had his hand once again extended to her. Sam took it. His other arm went around her waist. Sam looked up to him with a questionable face and said:

"What now?"

Jack grinned and pulled her close to him and then lifted her so that her feet were a few inches above the floor and started to move around at the rhythm of the music.

"Told you, no problem." Jack said.

When the song stopped and a slower song started playing he gently put her back on the floor but kept his arm around her waist to keep her close. Now he was just slowly moving to left and right. Sam looked up to him, when she saw him smiling down at her she looked away and put her head on his shoulder. When another song started playing Jack asked:

"Do you want something to drink?"

"Yes, just a white wine please." She said smiling.

"Wait here for just a second." He ran to a bunch of chairs at the edge of the dance floor to fetch her crutches and ran back to her with them in his hands.

"Here you go. I'll be right back with our drinks."

"John, how is it going with Teyla?" Jack asked when he sat down next to him on the table.

"Oh great, at least I think. She over there talking to major Charles." John said looking over at Teyla just when she looked up. Their eyes met and they both smiled.

"I think your doing great." Jack said just when Rodney sat down.

"Hey Rodney, where is Jennifer" John asked tearing his eyes away from Teyla.

"Over there talking to Sam." Rodney replied.

"So, Rodney. I was wondering how long were you waiting in front of Sam's quarters before I came along?" John asked with a grin.

"I wasn't waiting, I told you, I just got there." Rodney said.

"No way McKay. I heard someone pacing in front of my door for about ten minutes before I heard John." Jack said.

"Ten minutes?" Sheppard asked in disbelieve.

"No, I just got there, I was just about to chime the door." Rodney said.

"Oh and that's why, I had to chime the door when I got there?" Sheppard said with a grin.

A few seconds later the alarm clock on Jack's watch went of. He looked down and saw that it was eleven o'clock.

"I have to go." He said and he walked towards Sam.

"Hey Sam, how was it to dance with your general?" Jennifer asked sitting down next Sam.

Sam smiled. "Great."

"You to look so cute together."

"Stop, even at this party the regulations are still in place." Sam said looking down and her smile just dropped from her face.

"Come on Sam. You to spent your time in two different galaxies for God's sake. Just enjoy it. He is here to take care of you." Jennifer said trying to cheer her up. Sam was about to reply when Jack suddenly stood before her.

"Sam, can I talk to you, it's important."
