DAY 1 - FIRST KISSES
Welcome to the Week of Drabble-a-Thons (yes, finally, I remembered and stuff). Today’s theme is first kisses. Below the cut are any prompts I received ahead of time to play with, but you can also leave prompts in comments or write off the cuff (as long as it’s on theme).

It takes a few minutes for Sam to place the song lyric when it pops into her head. Of course, the past year hasn't gone by very fast, much to the chagrin of all of them. She suspected from the start that it could take this long, but after a year of solid research, she isn't any closer to figuring out how to save them all from the Ori ship.
She knows that they are all losing patience. Cameron spends all his time running laps around the ship and sparring with Teal'c to stay in shape. Landry has developed quite a green thumb. Daniel is fervently studying the Asgard technology. Vala... well, Sam's not quite sure what Vala does with all of her time, though she is aware that Daniel and Vala have started some kind of relationship. In her weaker moments, it makes her jealous.
"Colonel Carter, it is dinner time."
Teal'c voice startles her and she fumbles with the crystals she's holding. "I'll eat later," she says, not sure if she is up to facing her teammates today.
A strong, firm hand lands on her shoulder and tugs her gently away from her work station. "You need to eat," Teal'c says.
"I will," Sam replies. "Just... later."
"Now, Samantha."
Sam turns and stares. It's the first time that Teal'c has ever referred to her by anything other than her rank. Her eyes lock into his and she sees something there that she's never noticed before. His hand is still on her shoulder and she swallows, her breath growing more shallow, unable to tear her gaze away from his.
They stand there for what feels like forever, neither of them willing to move and break whatever spell has come over them. Teal'c leans forward suddenly, as if propelled by some unseen force, and his lips are like a whisper against hers. Before he can pull back, Sam steps closer to him and presses her lips more firmly against his.
When they finally break apart, they search each other's faces for any hint that what they just did was a mistake. Much to Sam's relief, she doesn't see any trace of that on Teal'c face and the smile that quirks up the corners of his lips tells her that he doesn't see anything amiss in her expression either.
"Dinner?" Teal'c repeats.
Sam smiles. "Dinner." She follows him out to the mess. She has no idea what might develop between them, but she's intrigued by the possibilites.
