***Janet's House, Friday night***
"Sam, Daniel do you guys want a beer?" Janet inquired from her kitchen.
"Yeah," they both cried out at the same time, then looked at each other, and stuck their tongues out at one another.
Janet came over to the living room where they were seating and gave them the beers. When Sam wasn't looking, Janet blinked at Daniel and vice versa.
"So...Sam...how's your, umm love life going lately?" Daniel asked raising his eyes brows while asking the question, then he took a sip of his beer.
"Yeah Sam," Janet joined in, 'how is it?"
Sam looked at Janet, then at Daniel, and laughed, "Come on you guys, let's change the subject! That stuff's classified!"
"Okay Daniel let's change the subject. Hey Sam, are you still in love with Jack?"
"Yeah Sam, are you?" Daniel pitched in.
"What is this 'Pick on Sam Night,'" she said starting to get a little bit angry, "I don't have to tell you anything about my love life or how much I am in love with Jack." She had noticed what she said, but it was too late. Once she had finished both Daniel and Janet called out "AHA!" at the same time.
"Sam if you love him, why don't you tell him?" Janet asked while taking a sip of her beer.
"Oh come on Janet," Sam said standing up, "of all the people I know I would expect you to know why I can't be with him!"
"Yes I know why, Sam. But the hell with the regs! Everyone deserves happiness, and believe me you need and deserve the happiness that I know Jack will give you. Some stupid military regs shouldn't get in the way," said Janet.
"She's right, Sam. You know she's right." Daniel had already finished his beer and was sitting on the edge of his seat.
"Yes Daniel I know she's right! But she's wrong about the regs because you know what, that is what's keeping me and Jack, Major and Colonel, not Sam and Jack!"
She was so angry that she excused herself to go to the bathroom.
"Janet, what are we going to do?" Daniel murmured while rubbing his face.
"I don't know Daniel, but those two deserve each other."
"I know they do, I know"
They just sat there, thinking and thinking about what they can do to get their best friends come together.
"I got it!!" Janet said jumping out of her seat and dragging Daniel to the backyard. After closing the door she divulged her plan to him, "I have a friend who works in a radio station and she's the one who organizes the "Love Letter" show every Saturday on Sam's favorite Radio station."
"And what about it?"
"When Sam decides to get out of the bathroom, we'll make her write a love letter to Jack."
"Yeah Janet, how are we going to make her do that without her doing a WWF smackdown on us?"
"We'll tell her that it's just a letter to relieve her feelings and she jots down all of her feelings for him, and that it's not for her to give to Jack. Then you distract her while I make a copy of it and I'll send it to the radio station and ask my friend for a favor and tell Jack when to put the station on so he can hear it."
"It's worth a shot."
They heard Sam's footsteps coming closer to the door. They didn't know what to do, so at the spur of the moment Daniel grabbed Janet and kissed her. Now this was not just an ordinary kiss, sure it was meant to make Sam not suspect them for trying to come up with a plan or something for her and Jack to get together, but damn they really got into it.
Sam opened the door and she saw them kissing passionately.
"Uheemm!' Sam cleared her throat and it took them a while to break apart.
"Oh...hey Sam," Janet said, blushing, "let's go inside shall we?" Sam went in first and Janet and Daniel followed.
"What was that?" Sam asked curiously.
"Ummm..." Daniel started to mumble while scratching the back of his head.
"I....wanted to take a breath of fresh air and Daniel accompanied me and we started talking and then we kissed. It was nothing it was at the spur of the moment." Sam had gone to the kitchen to get another beer while Janet was still talking and when Janet finished giving her "excuse" she glanced at Daniel and he looked disappointed at the fact that Janet said it was nothing. Sam came back to the living room and all three began to play poker. Janet took this opportunity to her advantage.
"Want to make a bet?"
"Sure why not? Sam said not knowing what Janet was going to do.
"If I win, I want you to write a letter addressed to Jack," Sam looked at her," BUT it's only a letter to relieve your feelings, it won't go near him."
"Okay," Sam said in a cool tone, "If I win I want you to go on a date with Daniel." Oh, how the tables have turned!!
"Yes I agree," Daniel said with a smile on his face.
"Fine, let's begin."
After a while and a lot of thinking, guess who won? Nope it wasn't Sam! Janet was ecstatic about her victory against Sam. Janet had won with a Royal Flush, even though she wanted to loose to go on that date with Daniel, but she can do that another time.
"Okay Sam here's a pen and a piece of letter, now write your heart out!" Janet and Daniel left her alone.
******************************************
The plan worked out perfectly. After Sam had finished the letter, Daniel asked if he can speak to her quietly about having a relationship with Janet "Daniel can you wait a sec?"
"Sure"
"Bye Sam," both Daniel and Janet said in unison, and with that she left.
"So what was...." were the words that Daniel began to blurt out until Janet interrupted him with a passionate kiss.
"I hope I didn't hurt you when I said that the kiss earlier meant nothing to me, because it meant a great deal." He kissed her forehead and said, "No, you didn't, because I knew you loved it anyway," with a grin on his face.
"Oh you bet I did," and they kissed once again.
******************************************
The next day Janet had called up her friend and asked her to read the letter tonight.
"Sure, we need all the goods anyway!"
"Thanks, Jess. You're fantastic. So I'll bring it over to the station?"
"Yup"
"Okay then see you later," and with that Janet hanged up, told Cassie that she was going to be going somewhere, to call on her cell if there were any problems.
"I know ma! Oh wait, what's this I hear about you and Dr. Jackson???"
"Where did you.....How did you......"
"Oh I have friends in high places. Sam told me!"
"Well I have to go."
"Where to see Daniel??" and she starts to make kissing sounds.
"Bye Cass," and with that she left the house.
******************************************
After Janet gave the letter to Jess, she went to Daniel's to tell him the good news. Daniel opened the door and let her in.
"Hey," he said kissing her on the lips.
"Hey, I have good news. I gave my friend the letter and she said that she will read it
tonight. Now the only thing we have to do is call Jack a few minutes before the show starts."
"Well that's four hours from now right? Why don't we have a little fun ourselves?"
"You read my mind!"
******************************************
***7:50 p.m. Jack's place***
Ring. Ring. Ring.
"Jack hey it's me Daniel."
"Yes, Daniel what do you want?"
"I just want you to do something for me."
"And what could that something be?"
"At 8:00 o'clock sharp, I want you to tune in to Sam's favorite station and stay tuned throughout the whole thing. Can you do that?"
"Of course I can Daniel, but why?"
"I can't tell you, but do it please. It's for your own good," and with that he hanged up.
Ten minutes later Jack turned on the radio and sat on the sofa drinking beer.
"Hello everyone and welcome to the 'Love Letter,' tonight we have a special letter written
by Samantha Carter."
******************************************
***Sam's place***
Sam turns on the radio and tunes it to her favorite station. She then sits on the sofa and takes a sip from her beer.
"Hello everyone and welcome to the 'Love Letter,' tonight we have a special letter written by Samantha Carter."
And with that, Sam spits out her beer and stands from her sofa.
******************************************
"Here it is folks:
'Dear Jack,
You are my moon, my stars, and sun. You are the whole world to me. Not one day passes by, that I don't fall in love with you all over again. My heart jumps at the sound of your voice and my skin shivers whenever I see you. You are the only one who makes me feel the way I do. I have loved you for the past four years, ever since we challenged each other to an arm wrestle. When I entered that briefing room, I knew that I had awakened your heart from a long sleep. I don't think that I've ever felt so much emotions at the same time: happiness, joy, sadness, hate, and above all else love. It's because of you that I come to work everyday, that I get up every morning knowing that I will see your face and hear your jokes. Jack, I love you with all my heart, soul, body, and mind. No wait, you are my heart soul, body, and mind.
Always and forever,
Your Sam
Wasn't that beautiful folks! Well Sam I hope you get your man! More after commercials."
******************************************
As soon as the show went into commercials, Jack left the house and jumped into his car.
It was raining at the time, and he didn't bother to take an umbrella, so in those few seconds that he was outside, he was already soaked.
Sam, on the other hand, was hoping that Jack sooooooo did not hear that letter on the radio. She called Janet. Nobody picked up. She called Daniel. Bingo.
"Daniel, WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING?!?!"
"Sam it was for your own good, you know that!"
"For cryin' out loud Daniel I can't be with him."
Jack was in his car speeding like a Sunday driver in New York.
"Daniel, answer me this question."
"What?"
"Did Jack listen to my letter?"
"Would you kick my ass if I say yes?"
"Ummm, let me think about it...YES!"
"It was Janet's idea..Owww, that hurt!"
Jack was only a couple of blocks away.
"Daniel, you and Janet.....are really gonna get it okay. Mark my words, if you...." Ding-Dong. Ding-Dong. Ding-Dong.
"Who's that?"
"I'll call you back Daniel." Sam knew who it was. She was just afraid of opening the door.
She hanged up the phone, and walked to the door.
"Who?"
"It's Jack."
"Sir, com....." She didn't even have the chance to finish her sentence. Jack just came in and brought Sam to him and kissed her passionately. It was a kiss that could rearrange the cosmos. It was a kiss that took both Sam and Jack's breath away. They finally parted from the lack of air. Sam was also wet, but she didn't mind. She felt warm and comfortable in Jack's arms.
"Jack"
"Say it again."
"Say what again."
"My name."
"Jack," and with that she giggled.
"Hey..no giggling," and he gave her another passionate kiss.
"Jack, what are we going to do? I mean..." he put his finger on her lips and said,
"You think too much." She smiled at him. They moved to the living room and she started to take off his wet clothes. She started out with the shirt, and then the undershirt "Let the machine take it," Sam mouthed through the kiss.
"Major Carter and Colonel O'Neill, I now you are both there, and I order you to pick up the phone." It was General Hammond. Sam and Jack looked at each other, and Jack moved towards the phone and picked it up.
"Hello General Hammond. How's everything? Hey did you see the.."
"Hello son"
"Anything important, sir?"
"Well I was listening to the radio this evening, and I happened to come across a station that was apparently reading a letter that Major Carter had sent. It has come to my attention that Major Carter is in love with you and I believe you are in love with her also, are you not?"
"Yes I am sir. I am deeply in love with her." He looked at Sam while saying this and winked at her. She was fighting back the tears she thought.
"I'm glad to hear it son. The reason I have called is to inform you that both you and Major Carter need not to worry about the regulations, let's just say that both of you are off the hook. Report back to base at 0900, Monday morning, is that clear?"
"Crystal, thank you General."
"Your welcome son," and with that Jack hanged up and went to Sam, picked her up, and took her to her room. I need not say more :)
The End.
Let's look into the future shall we:
* Daniel, Janet, Jack, and Sam have a double wedding. It was extravagant and beautiful. In addition, the General had to wear Pikachu costume because both he and Teal'c had bet on Sam and Jack and whether or not they will get together. Teal'c won and since Pikachu was his favorite Pokemon, that was what the General had to do.
* Sam's letter was heard by a book company and they asked her if they can publish her letter in their upcoming book. Sam gave her consent and now her letter will be immortalized.
* Skaara had come to the wedding and he met with Cassandra. Their wedding will be in June.
* Sam and Jack had a boy and a girl. Young Janet has her father's sarcasm; at the age of 4 she could say "For cryin' out loud." Young Daniel has his mother's intellect and brain; at the age of 7 he knew what an atom was, what's it's charge, and what subatomic particles does it contain.
* Daniel and Janet had a bouncing baby boy; Young Charlie at the age of 8 knew the Egyptian civilization just like Daniel knows the back of his hand, he also knows that anatomy of the human body from cranium to toe.
* All of them including Uncle Teal'c, with the cool tattoo on his forehead, go to Jack's cabin every summer to enjoy the art of fishing in a fishless lake.
The End.
