Touchdown
He catches her as she falls, the force of her slamming into him making them land in a heap on the dirt and grass. The breath is momentarily knocked from his lungs, his arms tightening around her.
“Oof,” she exhales, shifting against his chest.
“Nice catch, Carter,” he says once his breath is back.
“Thank you, sir,” is her triumphant response.
She’s so close, wayward strands of blonde hair in his face and he can smell her shampoo. He doesn’t want to let go, but soon she’s rolling off of him and getting to her feet with an ease that makes him jealous, the football tucked close to her chest.
Jack rolls to his knees and rises in her wake, trying to ignore the cracking of his joints. Daniel and Teal’c are across the lawn, making their way toward the middle as Sam jogs triumphantly, tossing Teal’c the ball.
“That was an exceptional catch, Major Carter.” Teal’c congratulates her on winning them the game.
Jack snorts loudly, meeting the group. “I think Danny and I deserve at least half a point for that.”
Sam looks at him, a cute, sardonic expression on her face. “How do you figure that one, sir?”
“Well,” he starts, a saunter in his step, “You caught the ball, and I caught you.” He smirks then, relishing the opportunity to see her laugh, even if it is at his expense.
“Nice try, sir, but I don’t think so.” She shakes her head, both Teal’c and Daniel in apparent agreement.
“It was worth it,” he whispers to no one in particular, and Daniel suggests they head inside for some lunch. Jack walks behind Carter, watching the slight sway of her jean-clad hips. He grins again, thinks about the way her body felt pressed against his. “Definitely worth it.”
.Fin.
