Chapter 2
“Sorry,” He added immediately. Damn he already screwed it up, even after the first sentence.
“Carter, what I mean is that we can’t deny what happened.” Sam shot him a look of confusion and he knew she didn’t understand. “What happened on the planet, that can’t happen again.”
“What happened on the planet? “
“You didn’t want to leave me.”
“You were hurt sir. I was the closest one to you and could cover you. It was the logical option.”
“You ignored my order.”
“I did not.” She waited for a moment contemplating something. “I was covering your six like I had been ordered to before that. We needed to get the whole team through the gate, you were hurt so you needed to go through first.”
“Carter. We can’t deny this.”
“We can’t deny what?”
Sam was playing with the can in her hand, while he put his bottle of beer on the table.
“Our feelings. That damn room.” He ran a hand through his hair. “You know what I mean.”
“We left it in the room because it was best, sir.” She emphasized the sir. He hated that word. He really did.
“I don’t think so Sam.”
He saw in her blue depths that she was surprised that he had called her by her first name, but otherwise she didn’t show any emotion. She tried to ignore the way the name on his lips made her feel for all she was worth.
“It’s better like this. We still have a war to fight, this is not the time nor place.”
“I almost lost you there. Damn it Carter, I don’t want that. I can’t do this.”
“Why not? We promised that we would leave it in that room. We don’t need it now, there are other things more important. God sir, the Goa’uld are knocking on our door ready to make slaves out of us and you want to ignore that and just go off with me. It’s not right!”
He stared at her, not believing what she just said.
“You know it’s not as simple as that.” He softly said.
“Sir, we can’t do this. Please.” That word again, the word he just couldn’t refuse when it came from her.
“Carter, I mean Sam, we can’t do this anymore. Well actually I can’t do this anymore. I care about you, a lot more than I’m supposed to. You know that. It’s killing me seeing you hurt. I can’t…” he stopped, not being able to finish what he said. Sam reached out to grab his hand, but didn’t say a word. “I can’t live without you. I won’t. I can’t leave it in that room anymore. Something has to be changed.”
“Jack.”
She stared into the chocolate colored eyes, that looked at her with such intensity that she cracked too. Jack saw it the moment that it happened. She stared at him with so much love. More than he could have even dreamed of. It made him think that all of his dreams were coming true.
Slowly but steady they got closer and closer, neither of them daring to say something or to stop the magic of the moment. He put his hand on her face and felt the soft skin under it. The skin on his hand tingled from joy and he loved the feeling. He was on fire. Desire flashed through him and he didn’t know how it happened but suddenly he was kissing Sam. His tongue searched for an entry and soon found it. He twisted and turned it and by Sam’s moans, he knew exactly what she liked. He softly bit her lip and his kisses trailed off down her neck. Their hands were everywhere. Jack felt one of Sam’s hands finding its way under his T-shirt and caressing his back. She toyed with the shirt and quickly undid the buttons, one jumping off in the process and with a bit of Jack’s help, took it off.
Another moan escaped from Sam. Jack’s hands soon found their way under her T-shirt slowly moving up. Teasing her but at the same time giving her what she wanted. His mouth covered hers again and another moan escaped. He found the clasp of her bra with his good hand and was ready to take it of when a sudden movement from Sam threw him of.
Then, as suddenly as this had all started, it stopped. Sam jumped away from him and tried to get as far as him as possible. She straightened her clothes and stared at him.
“We can’t…We can’t do this.”
“Carter?”
“This isn’t right. Think of the risks this could bring to our career and to SG1. Oh god, Daniel and Teal’c. Sir, they need us and we need them. This thing, whatever it is, we can’t throw our careers away for it. It’s just irresponsible and irrational.” He stared at her, was she really saying that now?
“It’s not.”
“Sir.”
“I could retire.”
“Like hell you would. We need you at the SGC.” Sam blurted out.
“Not in SG1. My days are numbered. My knees are getting worse, my condition is getting worse. Damn Carter, look at my arm, it will take months to recover from this. Fraiser even said that she didn’t knew if it would ever recover 100%. I’ve got 3 damn pins in it! Three.” He motioned with his right hand.
“You’re recover. You always do.”
“And if I don’t?”
“I don’t accept that.”
“Carter, what happened there in the field can’t happen again. We have to change this because this can’t happen again. We could have been off worse. One of us could have died. ”
“That is a risk we take every time we step through the gate, feelings or no feelings. I also care about Daniel and Teal’c, but it doesn’t change what I do. We can do this.”
She looked at the floor. Jack sighed and knew she needed time. He looked for his discarded T-shirt and pulled it on again. Sam needed some more time and he didn’t know what to say anymore, it was best for him to leave. Apparently Sam saw that he had trouble with putting it on again and helped him. Even this innocent touch sparked both of them, she left her hands linger on his body longer than necessary. Their hands collided again and they both looked up. The longing was still in both of their eyes.
The fire still so close to the surface, he wanted to kiss her, to love her properly, to not be scared. But this wasn’t possible. He looked at her one more time and then at the door. He needed to go. Now.
“I can leave myself out. Please think about this.”
“Sir.”
“Just think about it okay? That’s all I ask.”
She sighed and the blue depths found his chocolate ones again. “Okay.”
He gave a small smile away. “Okay.”
Then he walked to the door and grabbed his phone. He needed to go to the base so he called Daniel to give him a ride. Even if Carter still had to think about it, he knew their working relationship had to change. This couldn’t happen again. Even if he thought he could keep his feelings in check they would sneak in on one moment without him noticing and then play out. Usually on the wrong moments, like with the previous mission.
