'Ok apparently you are about 8 weeks along, wow looks like our babies will be celebrating their birthday's together" Janet looked over at Sam smiling.
"Really? I am its not what you had thought?" Sam asked hopeful
"No I guess I was wrong, but there is more sweetie" Janet said turning back to the screen.
"What?" Sam's smile faded as she looked back as well.
"See this here, that is the baby A, and that there is baby B, congratulations Sam your having twins" Janet turning back to Sam, who looked as shocked as ever. Did she here Janet right she was having twins…two babies.
"O my gosh…ha" Sam said she got up cleaned up she was so excited she had to go find Jack. "Thank you so much Janet!!"
"Hey it wasn't me, but go tell Jack! And Congrats!!"
Sam hurried out and headed to find Jack, she stopped just short of going in her lab in case he was there, she did want to tell him but she wanted to wait until a more appropriate time. She turned the corner to find exactly where she had left him.
"So how did it go?' Jack stood up quickly, Sam tried her best to keep a straight face, to hide her excitement but she couldn't she rushed to him and gave him a tight hug.
"Hey, What the verdict?" Jack pulled her back, she was smiling and crying.
"So we are?" Jack asked
She nodded, he smiled back at her then leaned and kissed her passionately.
"So why the tears?" He said as he wiped them from under her eyes.
" Janet told me at first that it was a ectopic pregnancy that, it was not savable we would lose the baby."
"Ectopic? What does that mean?"
"Basically the egg attached to the fallopian tube, it would have room to grow, and would become dangerous."
"So that wasn't the case huh?"
"No she did an ultrasound….and seen that the babies were fine" Sam said sliding in that it was babies, wondering if Jack was going to catch it.
"That's great so wh…" Jack stopped mid sentence he had just caught what Sam had said "…Babies? Does that mean we are having twins?"
She just smiled at him, and he knew the answer. He took her into his arms and held her for what seem forever.
"oops" They heard from behind them.
"Daniel? Come in" Sam said turning seeing him there.
"Excuse me, I hope I'm not interrupting" He said as he entered the room.
"Oh no we were celebrating" Sam answered
"Oh yeah, what's the occasion" Daniel asked
"Sam's pregnant and with twins of all things too." Jack said proudly
"Wow!! that's great congratulations! So I'm assuming that Janet already knows?"
"Yea she did the test an ultrasound."
"Oh crap!" Daniel as he jumped up
"What is it?" Jack asked
"Sorry guys got to run Janet is suppose to being doing that ultrasound today, I'm late, catch ya later" Daniel rushed out of the room. And left Sam and Jack to discussing how they were going to do it with twin babies and a toddler. All the while Daniel came hurrying through the doors.
"Babe I'm sorry, I was talking with Sam and Jack and then realized I should have already been down here"
"It's ok" Janet said " Come on Theresa is going to do the ultrasound."
Daniel waited why Janet laid down and Theresa pulled the equipment to the side of the bed. Janet reached out for Daniel's hand.
"So you think we might have more than one in there?" Daniel said nudging Janet's arm.
"Uh I don't know, but honestly I just would be happy with one healthy baby"
"Me too" Daniel said he leaned in and kissed Janet, then they both looked to the screen.
"Alright let's see what we got" Theresa said as she turned it on. And there on the screen was the baby
" Well it looks as though it is developing just as any normal 8 week old fetus." Janet squeezed Daniel's hand.
Then next couple of weeks passed quickly, and it was the day before Christmas Eve. Jack and Sam were getting ready to head home pick up Jonathan and go enjoy their first Christmas as a family. They were on their way out when Sam was paged to the gate room as an unscheduled activation happened.
"What the heck?" Sam said.
"You go ahead get Jonathan, and I will meet you at the house ok" She told Jack he nodded, gave her a kiss goodbye, and they turned to go their separate ways. Sam reached the control room just as the general was giving the ok to open the iris. Hammond seen Sam coming up the stairs he looked at her and pointed for her to in the gate room.
"It's the Tokra" At that moment she felt like she was going to be sick, it was her dad, she had not seen him since she had returned, and she was going to have to explain everything it was going to take longer for her to get home than she had last thought. Sam waited as her came through the gate, he smiled when he seen her standing there. He hurried to her and took her into his arms.
"Oh Sammy, you don't know how good it is to see you standing there, where have you been? You have a lot of us so worried."
"Hi dad" Sam said nervously "I have a lot to explain about that, But I'm sorry I have been back for several months now."
Jacob looked at her then looked up at Hammond, He returned the sympatric look just as Sam had.
"So why don't you start explaining while we head to your house, since I'm already here I might as well stay for Christmas, spending it with my little girl." He said as he lead her out of the gate room.
"Uh ok that's great dad, but I got to tell you something first before we get to the house, how bout we go to the infirmary get you cleared and I will explain all it on the way home."
"Ok"
They got to the infirmary, Janet thankfully had already left to go home, so Sam told her dad she would meet him on the service, she had to make a phone call. She got to the service and called Jack.
"O'Neill"
"Jack we got a problem"
"Sam what it is are you ok, the babies?" Jack was ready to turn the truck back around on a dime.
"No its not that, my dad just showed up and he staying through Christmas"
"Well that's not a problem he will he get to meet his grandson, everything will be ok, I promise."
"Yea, I'm just trying to figure out how to break to him, that he has that one, and will be a grand-dad again, but I'm not even married yet"
"Its ok I'm sure he will understand Selmac has soften him up a bit" Jack said, Sam could here the humor behind the remark in his voice.
"Alright I hope so, anyways here he comes" Sam said
"Ok see you when you get here, Love You!"
"Love You Too!" Sam said hanging up the phone, but she didn't get it out quick enough he dad was right there when she turned around.
"Who was that?" Jacob asked with the look of concern
"Uh…well dad lets get going, I have a lot to tell you before we make it home." Sam said walking toward the car. Then Sam remember the car seat.
" Actually Dad, let me start now." She took he hands up and rubbed her temples, she was getting a stress headache.
Jacob grabbed her hand " What's this you are engaged? " He seen the ring, things were fixing to get interesting.
"Uh yea that's what I needed to tell you"
"Ok so you disappear with no goodbye or reason to anyone and then come back don't even get word to me that your back, I happen to show up and you want to tell me you are getting married." He wasn't to happy, she didn't think he would be.
"Look dad, let me start from the beginning, I let because I…well I let the things standing in the way go." She didn't want to just come out and say she had slept with her CO.
"Wh.." Jacob started but Sam knew she needed to tell him everything up front before he could respond.
"Dad please let me finish." Jacob nodded
"Ok long story short, me and Jack slept together but during that night he was replaced with a clone from Baal, so the next morning he was cold and yelled saying it was a mistake. I tried to stay around but I couldn't so I left, I found out later on I was pregnant, I had the baby, but gave him up for adoption. Jacob looked as though he was ready to tear Jack apart.
"Then I actually moved on married Landon, we were married for about 3 months, ha was a car accident, during the time he was in the hospital Jack found me, Landon didn't make Jack was there to help me through it. We have been together ever since, but we were able to get our son back a few months back. His name is Jonathan, and I just found out I'm pregnant again but this time its twins." Sam finished, holding back tears waiting on her fathers response.
He stood there a moment taking everything in, then he smiled and then took her into his arms hugged her, then pulled back looked her in the eyes and asked " Are you Happy?"
Sam smiled " Yea I am"
"Then I am too! I love you I just want you to be happy"
"Thanks dad I love you too" Sam hugged again
"Now let me go meet this grandson of mine and get you out of this cold" Jacob told her as he opened the door on the car. They drove home Jacob asking Sam all kinds of question over things about the last four years.
They arrived at the house Jack had already had dinner going, Jonathan was playing in his room.
"Jacob?" Jack said coming out of the kitchen held his hand out, they shook hands.
"Jack"
"I have started dinner, it will be done in a few, I take it Sam has told you everything." Jack asked as they took a seat in the living room.
"yes she did" He smiled at her " All I ask Jack is you take care of my little girl you hear me?'
Jack put his arm around Sam " I wouldn't have it any other way" Just then Jonathan made his way down stairs. Jacob lit up when he seen him.
"O my gosh Sam he looks just like you"
"Jonathan honey I want you to meet someone.." But before Sam could finish Jonathan was running toward Jacob.
"Grandpa!!" Jonathan attached his self to Jacob's leg.
"How?" All three adults were confused to how he would know who Jacob was.
"Jonathan honey how did you know that this was your grandpa?" Sam knelt down beside him.
"I just know, like I knew you and daddy when you came and got me from the lonely place."
"I take it he has your smartness Sam? He seems very advanced than a normal 3 year old " Jacob said.
"Yes he does but I never knew he knew who we were. Jack, that explains why he only has had a few nights where he missed his other parents, I thought it was weird that he didn't really grieve even though he was little."
"Mommy I'm hungry" Jonathan said as he pulled away from Jacob
"Ok sweetie, it's almost done, why don't you and Grandpa hang out while me and daddy go change clothes ok." Sam brushed her hand through his hair, then looked up at Jack, giving him a look that she wanted to talk.
"ok! Come on Grandpa you got to see my train!!" Jonathan tugged on Jacobs pants pulling to come with him to his room.
Jack and Sam went in their bedroom she shut the door and just leaned against.
"Jack do you know what this means? I think something between the two of us and ours experiences has had an effected him."
"Yea I think so, so I guess after the holidays we can take him in to the SGC and get him checked out. He will be okay" Jack said he hugged Sam
"I know, it's just I never thought but I mean the ancient gene you carry and my protein marker…."
"Hey it will be ok, right now we just have a smart little boy.." Jack took his hand and placed it on Sam's not yet visible bump " and these two are going to be the same ok"
Sam smiled at him " Thank you, I love you!" She kissed him softly, he returned he kiss " I love you too, let's get back out there with them too, your dad just got here I'm sure Jonathan has already started wearing him out." Jack laughed
They spent the rest of the evening just letting Jacob get to know Jonathan. Sam and him caught up the talked about the wedding they were planning. They planned for May or June, but with the twins on the way they moved it up to next month so they could be married when they were born and Sam wouldn't be to big, she wanted to be at least close to her normal size in her wedding dress.
