"Is it cool?"
"Yeah, Jack and I talked and he is going to talk to the Joint Chiefs about building a cabin there for any couple who wanted to have their honeymoon off world. Of course, it would only be for those who know about the program."
"That sounds like a great idea" Sam passed the hot mug to Cassie.
"What did you wear for your wedding night?"
"Come on, I'll show you."
They walked into her bedroom and she opened the box up and moved the paper and then picked up the straps and lifted the chemise out of the box. Cassie's eyes widened and so did her mouth.
"Sam, that is so sexy. You wore that on your wedding night? What was Jack's reaction to this?"
"Speechless" and they both laughed.
"Wow Sam, Jack sure is lucky to have someone like you in his life."
"I know. What did your class think about the play?"
"They think it was great and they loved it. I ended up showing the whole school and they told their parents so I had to show it three nights in a row. They all laughed and said that you looked beautiful in the wedding dress."
"Really; that is great" and Sam put the chemise away.
"So what are you and Jack going to do tonight?"
"We are going out for dinner and then have an early night tonight" Sam said, grinning.
" Please, no details" they both laughed.
"If you like, I can take you around to Jack's when you are ready."
"Thanks Cassie. I just need to check on the washing and then pack a few things then we can leave."
"Ok."
Sam finished her coffee and rinsed her mug out before putting it back on the dish rack and then she went to sort out her washing. She put the clean clothes away in her bedroom and then packed a few things.
Before leaving she went and turned her computer off and, by that time, Cassie had finished her coffee and she washed out the cup. Sam picked up her bag and they left for Jack's place.
Fifteen minutes later, they arrived at his house. They got out and went up the steps and knocked on the door.
"Come in Sam" Sam opened the door and they walked in and Cassie closed the door.
"Jack, where are you?" Jack walked out of his bedroom.
"Cassie" Jack was surprised to see Cassie there.
"Jack, you look younger."
"Thanks, I think. Come here sweetie."
Cassie went into his open arms and hugged him. Sam went to put her bag in the bedroom. When she reached the doorway, she stopped and gasped. Jack and Cassie heard her.
"Crap" Jack muttered and Cassie smiled.
"Surprise! I'm trying to make it romantic for tonight." Jack and Cassie followed Sam into the bedroom
When they walked into the bedroom they could see candles everywhere, as well as blue silk sheets on the bed. There were also two dozen long stem red roses in a vase on Jack's tallboy as well as the two champagne flute glasses that they used when they were off world. Sam put her bag down and turned to look at him, with a big smile on her face.
"Jack you did all this for me?"
"For us Sam. I also went to a couple of Real Estate agencies in town to look at the houses that were for sale. I think I have found three homes which would be perfect for us. Remember when we talk about buying a home together and what sort of house we both would love to have? I found three that we can have a look at together."
"Really? You have been busy."
She wrapped her arms around his neck and gave him a passionate kiss. Cassie quietly closed the bedroom door and went into the kitchen to make herself a cup of coffee. She saw the three files on the breakfast bar and she saw that one of them was open, so she took a peak. It was about one of the homes.
It was two stories, with six bedrooms, four bathrooms with a double garage and a huge back yard. She looked at the pictures of it and then she looked at the next one. The second house had four bedrooms and two bathrooms with a double garage like the first one, but the back yard was smaller.
The third one was a three-story house with seven bedrooms, five bathroom house with a double garage/workshop and a carport. It also had an office and a games room, a large patio and the back yard was about the same size as the first one. It also had a newly renovated kitchen with a butler's pantry with built in china and storage cabinets. She smiled at it and knew that it was the one for them. She called Janet and told her about what Jack had been doing.
Jack and Sam were still kissing and they slowly moved to the bed. They fell onto it, laughing.
"What do you think of this?" Jack asked.
"Jack I love it; the candles, the roses, every thing."
"Are you hungry?"
"Yes, you?"
"Yep, but I don't think I can handle three steaks like that time when we had the arm bands."
"Oh yeah, I remember that night."
"We should go and talk to Cassie if she is still here."
"Yeah, we should and you can show me the three homes."
"Ok"
They kissed before getting up and leaving the bedroom to look for Cassie. When they reached the kitchen, they could here her on her phone. She had her back to them.
"I know mom but what do you think? Which one do you like…. Yeah, I like that one too… I know Sam would love it, at least there is room for their bikes… Yeah, we should do that, I think that is a great idea. I'll let you talk to Daniel and Teal'c… Ok, I will talk to you tonight… where are they? in Jack's bedroom… Mom, they were kissing and all over each other."
Jack and Sam looked at each other and Jack rolled his eyes. Sam tried not to giggle.
"Ewwwe, please Mom, I know about the birds and the bees and, at least, Jack is a big, huge romantic. He is Mom; he has roses and scented candles in his bedroom… yes I've seen the room; plus there are flute glasses and royal blue silk sheets and a bottle of non alcoholic champagne in the fridge, with strawberries dipped in chocolate."
