AN: Sorry for the long waited up date, my beta reader Gregg been busy and he also been in hospital. Here is the next chapter, so please, please review, I miss every ones review Take a guest on what Sam is having and the weight of the baby
The next day SG1 and 9 returned to the planet for the beginning of the treaty negotiations. They were there for a week. When they returned Sam was in the Control Room. She could see Jack walking through the gate and they looked at each other and smiled. She got up and went down to greet them, giving Jack a hug and kiss.
"How did it go?"
"Good. Even Thor was there to let them know that they will be under Asgard protection like us and he's now going to the System Lords to tell them. All we can do is wait and see what happens next. So how are you and little one?"
"We're fine and missing you."
"I missed you too Sam. Well I better go and face doc Needles. See you later."
"I'll come with you."
They walk with the rest of SG1 to the gear up room so Jack could put his backpack away, then headed to the infirmary where Jack had his jabs. While there, Janet also checks on the little one to see how it is.
"Every thing looks good here. How are you feeling at the moment Sam?"
"Happy and hungry." Jack grin and Janet chuckled
"Well I'm not surprised. It is lunch time after all, so you both can go now and I'll see you again next month Sam."
"Thanks, Janet."
Sam got up and tidied herself up before they both left so Jack could have his shower. While he was doing that, Sam went to the mess hall to see the rest of SG1 where they were eating their lunch. She went and got hers before joining the group.
"Hi guys."
"Hi Sam. Where's Jack?"
"Having a shower. He'll be here soon."
"Okay, so how were things here?"
"Quiet. SG5 brought back pictures and artefacts for you to look at Daniel. I had a look. It's from the Ancients."
"Really? Where is it?"
"In your lab waiting for you," she said smiling.
"Okay, thanks. Sam? Are those overalls you're wearing?"
"Yeah. Since I'm getting bigger. The same with the shoes as well."
Sam was already starting to show, and her BDU pants were starting to get tight, so she had started wearing them the day before they all returned back.
"Okay. You must be hungry," he commented on seeing Sam had a double order of chicken, potato's, peas, corn, pumpkin pie and blue jell-o on her tray.
"Yes, I am. After all, I'm feeding for two now, so why not?"
Over the next four months SG1 went off world checking out different planets as well as meeting new cultures and friends, as well as enemies, along the way. Sam and Jack went to all the wedding ceremonies on the planet. A couple of times SG1 and another team went with them as well.
Thor did, too, and he had let the System Lords know that the planet was under Asgard protection. They didn't like that, so they sent two mother ships there to find out what was so important about the planet. One of the Tok'ra operatives sent a message to the Tok'ra Council about what had happened, so they sent Jacob and one of the other Tok'ra to Earth to let them know what was happening and how long before the ships would be showing up.
When the mother ships and dozens of cargo ships showed up, they checked out the villages to find nothing till one group walked into the temple and saw writings on the wall. He turned to the first prime.
"It talks about the Goa'uld and soul mates."
"Soul mates?"
"Yes. From what it says the soul mate couple are more powerful than the Goa'uld." He turned to Julius who was on his knees.
"Where are the soul mates?"
"They are not from here."
"What do you mean? Speak!"
"They came through the stone ring."
"How do I know you speak the truth?"
"The stone glowed for them."
"It says here on the wall that the yellow stone will only glow for one special couple and that they are not from here," the Jaffa said.
"Where are they from?"
"Earth."
They turned around to see Jack and SG1 and 3 there with their P90's pointing at them. Jack step forward with a grin on his face.
"You know, your false snake head God broke the rules. This plant is under protection."
"Where is Major Carter? Why isn't she with you?"
"Sam is on maternity leave, so I suggest that you and your buddies pack up and leave."
"You are outnumbered."
"Not really. Another thing is you can't kill me or touch me. If you do, my soul mate will sense what I'm sensing. Like if you zat me my mate will feel it."
The Jaffa laughed. "That is impossible."
"Nope. It's written on the wall."
One of the Jaffa turned and looked at the wall, then turned back to Jack. "You're the soul mate?"
"Yep. And Sam is my soul mate. So why don't you guys just leave this place? Or do you want to end up like Baal and Apophis?"
"We will return."
"If you do, bring your snake head God with you next time."
They left the Temple and Jack got the rest of his team and 3 to follow them to make sure they were all gone while he helped Julius to his feet. They walked out of the Temple to see the Jaffa returning to the cargo ships and leaving. Every one was please that they left. They could relax now and carry on with what they were doing.
"Well Julius, you all can relax, but keep a look out. They will probably be back again. If so, we'll be here and waiting for them."
"Thank you. What can we do to repay you for what you have done for us?"
"You already have. When we first met, we became friends, allies. It also has given me a chance to show and tell Sam how much I love her. Now we're happily married with a baby on the way. What more can one want?"
"I'm pleased that you and Samantha are happy. Will you two be here for the next wedding ceremony?"
"Yep. We'll be here, unless Sam goes into early labour. Otherwise we'll be here for it."
They both smiled as they reached the Stargate.
"Once again, thank you all for saving our planet."
"Your welcome," Daniel said.
"Okay. Dial it up and let's head home."
Teal'c dialled Earth and Daniel sent the code through. Then the SG teams started walking through the gate.
"We'll see you in few days Julius."
"I'll be looking forward to your return."
Then Jack walked up the ramp and through the Gate. When he reached the other side it shut down as he walked down the ramp and gave Sam a kiss before turning to Hammond.
"Mission accomplished, Sir."
"Good work. We'll debrief in two hours, Colonel."
"Yes, sir."
They all left for their post ops and showers.
Jack walked into the mess hall for some cake only to see Sam at one of the tables with her tray loaded with chicken drumsticks, mash potatoes covered in thick gravy, corn on the cob with garlic butter over it, blue jell-o and cake. Jack smiled at her and went to get himself some coffee and cake only to find it was all gone.
He walked over and sat down facing Sam who was munching on one of the cobs. She finished with it and put it on a plate next to the other three. Then she wiped her hands on one of the napkins and picked up the plate that had the cake on it and passed it to Jack.
"I grabbed the last slice before Dixon got hold of it."
"Thanks, Sweetheart. I see that you're hungry."
"Well, I did miss lunch cause I was worried about you."
"Hey everything turned out okay and Julius is looking forward to seeing us again."
"I know."
Sam started on her potatoes with one hand and chicken in the other. Jack smiled while watching Sam eat a mouthful of potatoes and gravy, then the chicken, then backs to the potatoes again. Jack had just started eating his cake when the alarms went off and Sam started to get up.
"Sit down, Sam. If it's important they'll let you know."
She sat down and carried on eating. A few minutes later Jacob walked in and saw them, so he walked over to their table. He raised an eyebrow when he saw Sam's tray. She turned to see Jacob standing there.
"Hungry, I see." She just nodded and smiled.
"Hi Dad. What's up?"
"Hello to you, too, Jack. I'm here cause I was told about what happen on the planet."
"Okay. Well you're in time for the debriefing which starts in half an hour."
"Okay. I'll go and get a cup of tea. I'll be right back."
He went to get himself a drink, then returned to their table and sat down to talk to them for a bit. When Sam was finished twenty minutes later, she leaned back and, rubbing her stomach, let out a big burp.
"Sorry," she covered her mouth.
"Sam, you remind me so much of your Mother. She used to eat a weeks worth of food in one day before she had you and Mark."
"That's why she's on base a lot," Jack chimed in.
"So she can eat as much as she wants."
"I know. Smart move." They all laughed.
"Well, it's time for the debriefing. Shall we?"
They all got up, Jack helping Sam. On the way Sam went to the ladies room before walking to the briefing room.
An hour later they were all dismissed and Jack and Sam headed home after Jacob returned to the Tok'ra base. Jack and Sam stayed home for the next four days before returning back to the base since they were going off world for the wedding ceremony. SG1, 4 & 6 went this time to the planet. Once all were settled in they all met at the Temple where couples were gathering around. Sam noticed Captain Jane Carr from SG6 and Major Mark Andrews from SG4 standing together. From what she could see they were holding hands. She leaned over and whispered in Jack ear.
"Look over to where Major Andrews and Captain Carr are."
Jack looked over to where the couple were, then looked at Sam and smiled. He nodded to let her know that he also saw them holding hands. Then Julius showed up and the ceremony began. This time there were thirty couples that went through it this time. In the end the stone did glow for ten of the couples. Jack asked if one couple from Earth could go through. It that was granted, so he walked over to the Captain and Major.
"Gone on. Give it a go. I know you two want to know."
He gave them a wink and returned back to Sam side. They watched the couple whisper something to each other and then both stepped forward to take the test. The stone glowed for them, which made them smile. After they both drank the juice and then kissed and bowed to Julius, the parties began. When they were all outside, both SG 4 & 6 gave the couple a hard time.
Jack spoke to the Major while Sam spoke to the Captain. They both warned the happy couple about what would happen that night. Sam found out that the captain was a virgin and was scared that she would mess things up, so Sam gave her some pointers and asked if the Major knew. She said yes. After Sam spoke to her, they went to eat and drink, having a wonderful time.
Later that evening Jack and Sam returned to their cabin for the night, and they made passionate love four times that evening before falling asleep with Jack spooning Sam with one hand on her stomach.
The next morning when they went to join the others, both the Captain and Major were smiling. The Captain walked over to help Sam with the coffee for the guys.
"How was last night?" Sam asked while pouring the hot water into the big coffeepot.
"It was incredible. We took it slow. After the first time I was a little sore, but it was great. Then we did it again," she said, smiling.
"Well, there you go. So how many times did you two do it?"
"Three times last night, and twice this morning."
"Wow. I can see that you do look happy. I'm happy for you."
"Thanks"
They headed over to the table carrying the cups and coffee pot for all of them since they all were suffering from a hang over from the night before. They all talked for a while before leaving to join Julius and his wife for breakfast.
Two hours later that all returned to Earth until the next time they could visit them. Hammond put SG1 on down time since Sam's due date was getting close and she was on maternity leave.
Two days later Daniel and Teal'c helped Jack get the nursery done before Sam gave birth. It took them three days to get it all finished. When it was done, they decided to let Sam see it for the first time. She walked in to the room and gasped at what she saw. The walls were painted light green with posters all over them as well as Care Bear pictures since she wanted a Care Bear theme for their child. She looked around to see a changing table, basinet, cot, rocking chair and in the drawers was every thing, including toys for the baby.
"Wow! You guys did a fantastic job here. I love it!"
"Well I sure am pleased you love it, Sam," Jack said, smiling.
"Same here." She gave them all a thank you hug and kiss, which made them smile.
"There is only one more thing. This is from Janet and Cassie," Daniel said as he passed her a wrapped up box.
She opened it, and laughed. "This is just perfect!" It was twenty-five centimetre 'good luck' cares bear. It was the green bear with the clover on its front. She put it in the cot and smiled.
"So are you happy with everything, Sam?"
"Yes, Jack, I am. Thank you," she said and gave him a kiss. Then the doorbell rang.
"I'll get it," Daniel said, then hurried out of the room. Teal'c followed him, leaving Jack and Sam alone.
"I'm glad you love this room, Sam."
"I do Jack, I do. It's everything I ever wanted."
Jack hugged Sam from behind. "How are you feeling?"
"Hungry and happy."
"Well, then, I better feed you."
He kissed her neck before letting go, then held onto her hand as they walked out of the room and headed down stairs. They heard some noises, so they went into the lounge and stopped in their tracks.
"Surprise!" all the women, said.
"What's going on?" Sam asked.
"It's your baby shower, Sam. No men allowed."
Jack put his hands up. "Okay, okay. Daniel, Teal'c, lets get out of here for a couple of hours."
Jack give Sam a kiss before leaving with Daniel and Teal'c. Sam sat down in her lazy boy chair that Jack got her just as she was just starting to show. The women had a wonderful time. They brought gifts, food and drinks for the afternoon party. They even went upstairs to check out the nursery while there.
Two hours later they all started to leave after the place was cleaned up because of the mess that was made from crumbs and wrapping paper. Janet helped Sam up the stairs to her room so she could have a lie down before leaving; not knowing that Jack was already back and hiding in the nursery.
Once Janet was gone, he walked into their bedroom only to find Sam asleep. He watched her, only she wasn't asleep, so he walk around to his side of the bed and climbed on top of it rolling to his side looking at her. She opened her eyes and he lean forward and gave her a kiss.
"Hey, how did the party go?"
"Good. Lots of baby things."
"I know. Come here." She rolled to her side so she was spooned from behind. He stroked her large stomach as she drifted off to sleep, then he did, also, a few minutes later.
