AUTHOR'S NOTES:
SAM: FOR CRYIN' OUT LOUD HOW THICK CAN YOU GET?!?
SAM WALKS INTO THE INFIRMARY AND THROWS HERSELF ONTO ONE OF THE BEDS
JANET: WHOA! CALM DOWN SAM! WHAT'S WRONG?
SAM: IT'S HIM AGAIN!
JANET: WHAT YOU MEAN.......
SAM: YES I DO!
SAM GETS UP AND SITS ON THE EDGE OF JANET'S DESK
JANET SIGHS
JANET: RIGHT, WHAT DID HE DO THIS TIME
SAM: WELL LETS JUST SAY IT INVOLVED HIM TRYING TO SHOW OFF TO ME AND HIM AND TEAL'C IN THE MAKESHIFT BOXING RING IN HIS BASEMENT!
JANET CRINGES AT THE MENTAL IMAGE THAT FLASHES BEFORE HER EYES
JANET: OH KAY! IS THAT WHY HE JUST CAME IN ABOUT 30 MINUTES AGO SOUNDING LIKE A MUPPET AND HAVING A NOSE CAST ON?
SAM: UMMM..... IT MIGHT DO YEAH,
SAM FLUSHES SLIGHTLY RED AND AVOIDS MAKING EYE CONTACT WITH JANET
JANET: OK SAM I'M ALL EARS! SPILL!
SAM: OK, BUT IF YOU TELL ANYONE, EVEN GENERAL HAMMOND...
JANET: DEAL! OH DOES DANIEL KNOW?
SAM: YEAH HE CARRIED THE COLONEL TO THE CAR WHY I TOLD TEAL'C NOT TO WORRY, THE BIG GUY WAS REALLY WORRIED! THEN WE DROVE HIM TO THE HOSPITAL AND ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING JANET?
JANET HAS A FAR AWAY STARE IN HER EYES AND HER STRAIGHT LIPS TURN INTO A SMILE
JANET: WHAT?!? OH SORRY SAM, I WAS JUST IMAGINING DANIEL'S BIG STRONG ARMS AND MUSCLED CHEST!
SAM: ARE WE TALKING ABOUT THE SAME GUY HERE JANET?!? I MEAN DANIEL JACKSON, MEMBER OF SG-1. ARCHAEOLOGIST, LINGUIST AND ANTHROPOLOGIST, GLASSES, FLOPPY BLONDE HAIR...
JANET: ..... LOVELY BLUE EYES, NICE LONG LEGS, YEAH WE ARE! SORRY START FROM THE BEGINNING.
SAM: RIGHT HERE GOES. THE COLONEL, DANIEL, TEAL'C AND I WERE WORKING OUT IN THE GYM IN THE BASEMENT. THE COLONEL WENT TO GET SOME BEERS AND DANIEL AND TEAL'C STARTED MESSING AROUND IN THE RING, WHEN THE COLONEL CAME BACK IS WAS CHEERING FOR DANIEL BUT THEN TEAL'S PINNED HIM AND HE GAVE UP! THEN HE GOT IN THE RING AND TOOK A COUPLE OF SHOTS AT TEAL'C, THEN SHOUTED "COME ON TEAL'C OL'BUDDY, GIVE US YOUR BEST SHOT!" TEAL'S HESITATED AND THEN SWUNG AN ALMIGHTY RIGHT HOOK STRAIGHT INTO THE COLONEL'S FACE, HE COMPLETELY SMASHED HIS NOSE THERE WAS BLOOD EVERYWHERE, HE TOOK ONE LOOK AT THE POOL OF BLOOD IN THE RING AND FAINTED. WE DROVE HIM TO THE HOSPITAL AND HE HAS BROKE THE BRIDGE OF HIS NOSE IN 6 PLACES. WHEN HE WOKE UP HE GRINNED AT ME AND SAID "I ONLY WANTED TO IMPRESS YOU!" I NEARLY TOOK A SWING AT HIM MYSELF BUT DANIEL HELD ME OFF, AND I STORMED OUT AND WENT HOME. I CAN'T BELIEVE HE DID THAT, HE KNOWS HOW I FEEL ABOUT HIM WHY DOES HE HAVE TO MAKE LIFE SO DIFFICULT BY TRYING TO PROVE HIMSELF TO ME.
SAM GETS UP AND WALKS BACK TOWARDS THE BED, WITH JANET HOT ON HER HEELS
JANET: DID YOU TELL HIM THAT YOU, Y'KNOW LIKE HIM MORE THAN HIS 2IC SHOULD?
SAM REACHES THE BED AND SITS DOWN WITH JANET SITTING NEXT TO HER
SAM: NOT IN SO MANY WORDS, HE KNOWS THOUGH, FROM THE ZA'TARC TESTING. HE WANTED TO TALK ABOUT IT BUT I JUST KEPT TELLING HIM NO UNTIL HE GAVE UP!
JANET: SO WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL HIM?
SAM: WHAT GO UP TO HIM AND SAY, "HELLO SIR, CAN I TELL YOU THAT I LOVE YOU, AND I WANT TO DRAG YOU TO MY QUARTERS AND MAKE MAD PASSIONATE LOVE TO YOU ALL NIGHT!" I COULDN'T JANET AND BESIDES I CAN'T RUIN OUR CAREER'S WE HAVE WORKED TO HARD TO LOSE ALL THIS, THEN THERE IS SARA, I STILL DON'T THINK HE HAS GOTTEN OVER HER YET!
JANET: HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT?
SAM: I DON'T BUT I CAN'T RISK IT, IF I DON'T KNOW HE FEELS THE SAME,
JACK: AND WHAT IF HE DOES FEEL THE SAME?
SAM: SIR!
SAM TURNS SO QUICK SHE NEARLY FALLS OFF THE BED
SAM: HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN STANDING THERE?
JACK: LONG ENOUGH, I HEARD THE WHOLE THING.
SAM GOES BRIGHT RED AND LAYS BACK ON THE BED TRYING TO COVER UP HER EMBARRASSMENT
JACK: I'M SORRY I WAS ACTING LIKE A TEENAGER TRYING TO SHOW OFF, I CANT HELP IT
SAM, I LOVE YOU SO MUCH I CANT IGNORE IT ANY LONGER, I WANT YOU AND I CANT CHANGE THAT.....
SAM SITS UP AND LOOS AT JACK WITH A PUZZLED LOOK. MEANWHILE JANET BUSIES HERSELF WITH PAPERWORK ON HER DESK
SAM: SIR.....
JACK: SAM LET ME FINISH, IF I DONT FINISH WHAT I'M SAYING I WONT HAVE THE NERVE LATER. I HAVE WANTED YOU SINCE YOU STEPPED INTO THAT BRIEFING ROOM NEARLY 4 YEARS AGO, IT GETS HARDER AND HARDER EVERY DAY SEEING YOU WALKING AROUND OBLIVIOUS TO THE FACT I CANT WAIT TILL THE NEXT MISSION, DOWNTIME, EVEN COFFEE BREAK TILL I SEE YOU, I CANT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT, I DON'T CARE IF I HAVE TO BE DISHONOURABLY DISCHARGED FROM THE AIRFORCE, I WOULD KILL A WHOLE ARMY OF GOA'ULD IF IT MEANT YOU NEVER HAD TO FEEL AN OUNCE OF PAIN. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH I CAN'T BARE TO SEE YOU HURT, MY HEART ACHES EVERYDAY JUST WANTING TO HOLD YOU TIGHT. SAM, I LOVE YOU! THERE I HAVE SAID IT. NOW I FELL COMPLETELY STUPID AND I KNOW I HAVE JUST WRECKED ANY CHANCE I WILL EVER HAVE WITH YOU JUST BECAUSE I WAS TRYING TO SHOW OFF, GOD HOW CAN I HAVE BEEN SO STUPID!
JACK TURNS AWAY AND STARTS TO WALK OUT THE DOOR
SAM: SIR...WAIT A MINUTE,
JACK HALTS BUT HIS HEAD IS HUNG DOWN
JACK: CUT THE SIR CRAP SAM, ME DECLARING MY UNDYING LOVE FOR YOU MEANS THAT WE CAN BE ON FIRST NAME TERMS, DONT YA THINK!
SAM: JACK, SHUT THE HELL UP AND KISS ME!
JACK TURNS AND THE LOOK ON HIS FACE WAS PRICELESS
JACK: WHAT?!?
SAM: YOU HEARD ME, OR ARE YOU GOING DEAF IN YOUR OLD AGE?
JACK POUTS AND PUTS HIS HANDS ON HIS HIPS
JACK: HEY I AINT THAT OLD YOU KNOW!!
SAM: WELL COME HERE THEN!
JACK WALKS OVER AND EMBRACES SAM AND GIVES HER A LONG, SLOW, PASSIONATE KISS
GENERAL HAMMOND: (CLEARS HIS THROAT) AM I INTERRUPTING ANYTHING HERE?
JACK: OH NO! FOR CRYIN' OUT LOUD WHY ALWAYS ME?
SAM: YES YOU ARE IS THEIR ANYTHING YOU WANTED GENERAL OR IS THIS JUST A SOCIAL VISIT?

GENERAL HAMMOND: COLONEL, YOU TWO HAVE MADE ROMEO AND JULIET SEEM LIKE A WALK IN THE PARK, I PHONED THE PRESIDENT OVER 3 YEARS AGO AND HE SAID I COULD BEND THE RULES THIS ONCE SO I COULD KEEP MY FAVOURITE TEAM TOGETHER
JACK AND SAM BLUSH STILL TIGHTLY HOLDING EACH OTHER
JANET: ANYONE CAN SEE YOU TOO ARE RIGHT FOR EACH OTHER! GENERAL, THAT REMINDS ME, DO YOU THINK THAT IT WOULD BE A PROBLEM IF ME AND DR JACKSON GOT TOGETHER? I MEAN HE IS A CIVILIAN!
THE GENERAL BLINKS A FEW TIMES, JACK'S MOUTH OPENS AND CLOSES LIKE A GOLDFISH, SAM JUST STUTTERS, AND JANET SMILES WICKEDLY
JANET: WHAT?!?
SAM: JANET ARE YOU HIDING SOMETHING FROM ME? I TOLD YOU HOW I FELT ABOUT JACK ALMOST 3 YEARS AGO! ARE YOU TELLING ME YOU AND DANIEL ARE....Y'KNOW TOGETHER?!
JANET TURNS AS RED AS A BEETROOT AND NODS
JANET: WELL, IT'S ONLY BEEN 2-3 MONTHS AND WE DIDN'T WANT THE WHOLE BASE FINDING OUT BEFORE WE HAD A CHANCE TO SEE IF IT WOULD LAST!
JACK: YOU DARK HORSE, DOC!

DANIEL: ME TOO!
JACK: HEY TEAL'C, WANNA DRIVE?
TEAL'C NODS AND JACK TOSSES HIM THE KEYS.
TEAL'C: CONSIDERING MY SYMBIOTE PREVENTS ME FROM BEING INTOXICATED, I BELIEVE THAT WOULD BE A VERY GOOD IDEA O'NEILL.
TEAL'C RISES, WALKS OUT OF THE DOOR AND SITS IN THE DRIVERS SEAT AND STARTS THE ENGINE OF JACK'S CAR.
DANIEL: HEY JACK, I WAS WONDERING, CAN I SHOW YOU SOMETHING?
JACK: SURE SPACEMONKEY?
DANIEL PRODUCES A DARK RED BOX FROM HIS POCKET OPENS IT AND HANDS IT TO JACK, INSIDE IS A DIAMOND RING WITH RUBY'S SURROUNDING IT. JACK STARES AT IT AND SMILES AT DANIEL.

JACK CHUCKLES AND SHAKES HIS HEAD
JACK: DANNY IT'S GREAT, SHE'LL LOVE IT. AND I AM SURE SHE WILL SAY YES!
DANIEL: YEAH, I HOPE SO
DANIEL LAUGHS AND HEADS FOR THE DOOR.
DANIEL: COME ON THEN JACK LETS GO AND FIND OUR LADIES.
JACK: DANIEL CAN I SHOW YOU SOMETHING?
DANIEL: UMM SURE JACK.
JACK PRODUCES A BLUE JEWELLERS BOX FROM HIS JACKET POCKET AND HANDS IT TO DANIEL.
DANIEL: IS THIS WHAT I THINK IT IS?
JACK NODS AND SMILES NERVOUSLY. DANIEL OPENS IT AND INSIDE THERE IS A SAPPHIRE WITH 10 DIAMONDS SURROUNDING IT.
DANIEL: WOW!
JACK: YEAH IT WAS MY MOTHER'S SHE GAVE IT TO ME AFTER SARA AND I DIVORCED SAYING THAT I SHOULD GIVE IT TO MY TRUE LOVE, FOR SOME REASON SHE NEVER DID LIKE SARA.
DANIEL SHUTS THE BOX AND HANDS IT TO JACK. JACK STUFFS IT INTO HIS POCKET AND CLAPS DANIEL ON THE SHOULDERS, SWIVELS HIM AROUND AND POINTS HIM IN THE DIRECTION OF THE DOOR.
DANIEL: I AM POSITIVE SHE WILL SAY YES JACK.
JACK: THANKS DANNY-BOY. LETS GO!

JANET: CASSIE, YOU READY YET?
CASSIE: NEARLY MUM, BE DOWN IN A MINUTE!

JANET STOPS DANIEL SAYING ANYMORE AND KISSES HIM TOO.
JACK: AND THAT HAPPENED!
FERETTI AND CO JUST STARE AT EACH OTHER AND OFFER CONGRATULATIONS AND SPEND THE NEXT COUPLE OF MNUTES SHAKING HANDS AND ASKING QUESTIONS. GENERAL HAMMOND THEN SHOWS UP WITH A GUEST IN THE PASSENGER SEAT WHO IS WELL WRAPPED UP AND BECAUSE OF THE POOR LIGHTING OUTSIDE THE CLUB NO-ONE CAN SEE WHO IT IS. JACK SMILES AND DANIEL AND WALKS TOWARDS THE GENERAL WHO HAS PALKES ANOUT 200 YARDS AWAY.

LUCKILY I HEARD YOU AND I TOO WAS WONDERING IF YOU WOULD DO ME THE HONOUR OF BEING MY WIFE?
SAM BRUSHES THE TEARS AWAY FROM HER EYS AS JACK RISEES OFF OF ONE KNEE WATING FOR HER ANSWER.
