CHAPTER TWELVE

Cam took a bite of the toast he'd brought back to his office from the commissary, his eyes on the paperwork he was doing.  Though he would have preferred to go home, he spent last night in his quarters on base because he'd suspected that, if he went home, Vala would have figured out a way to get a ride over there.  Not that being with her wasn't something that he wanted.  On the contrary, his sleep had been disturbed by more than one dream of making love with her.  The problem was that if she'd come over to his place yet again, questions would have been asked.

Cameron had yet to figure out how they were going to get together without people suspecting something.  Really, the only way they could do it would be during the day on his days off.

A knock on the door ended Cam's thoughts on that.  He told the person to enter.  Teal'c came in and shut the door behind him.

"Hey, Teal'c," Cam greeted.  "What's up?"  He took another bite of his toast.

"It has come to my attention that your relationship with Vala Mal Doran has changed to one of a sexual nature," Teal'c replied bluntly.

For the second time in a week, Cam found himself choking on his food.  As soon as he stopped coughing, he stared at the Jaffa, a little wide-eyed.

"How did you find out?" he asked.

"I suspected that something was transpiring between you upon witnessing your conduct toward each other in the gate room before the mission to M6D-720.  My suspicions were confirmed when I witnessed Vala Mal Doran leaving your cottage our first night on Hedavin."

"Damn.  I just knew this would happen.  I knew somebody would figure it out."

"Were you, then, intending to keep your relationship a secret?"

"No, not permanently, but I was planning on waiting a while, until I figured out exactly where this . . . relationship is going, if it's going to go anywhere at all."

Teal'c frowned ever so slightly.  "You have doubts that it will develop further?"

"Well, yeah.  Sure I do.  Teal'c, this is Vala we're talking about.  She's not exactly the kind of girl who believes in commitment.  To be honest, I still don't know how the hell this happened.  She started hitting on me, and I tried to ignore it.  Actually, I was doing a pretty good job of it until that damn kiss she laid on me.  After that, she wouldn't leave me alone.  Even now that we're together, she's still at it.  I tell you, Teal'c.  She's merciless!  If she put that much dedication and energy into torturing someone, she could probably get anyone to talk.  I don't know how Jackson resisted her.  I can only assume it's because he was in love with Sam the whole time.  Well, I didn't have that advantage!"

Teal'c was quite amused by the pilot's words, attitude, and the slight whine in his voice.  The Jaffa managed to hide the smirk that came to his face.

"You are saying that she seduced you," he said, knowing that a seduction would not work unless the one being seduced already wanted the seducer – even if they were consciously unaware of it.

"Yes!" Cam exclaimed.  Then he realized how that sounded.  "Well, in a way.  She was coming on to me pretty strongly, but I thought that the only reason was that she couldn't get Jackson.  But then. . . ."  The lieutenant colonel sighed.  "She came to my quarters wanting to know why I was turning her down.  Looking back on it, I know that what I said really wasn't very nice.  I told her bluntly that she wasn't the kind of woman I'd ever want in that way, and . . . it hurt her.  I mean it really hurt her.  I could see it in her eyes.  She believed that I thought she wasn't good enough for me because of her shady past.  She left, and, well, I couldn't very well let her keep thinking that, so I went to her quarters to talk to her.  I found out that what I believed about why she was going after me was wrong.  In the beginning, it was because Jackson was no longer in the running, but then she started wanting it for real because we'd been spending all that time together and really connected.  And . . . that's when it happened.  I think back on it, and I still don't know why I didn't stop it.  I just couldn't."

"Perhaps it is because, in your heart, you wanted it as much as she did."

Cam thought about that.  Was it possible that, despite everything he'd told himself, deep down inside, he really had wanted it?

"I don't know, Teal'c.  Maybe I did.  The point is that I really don't know where this is going.  Does this thing between me and Vala have any kind of future?"

Teal'c studied him closely.  "Do you wish it to have one?"

"Well, I have to admit that what's happened so far was pretty darn terrific, but I wasn't lying when I said that she was not the kind of woman that I'd pictured myself being with.  I just don't want to commit to a relationship only to see it crash and burn in a few weeks.  I've done that before, and it's not pleasant.  That's why I've decided to take things one day at a time, just wait and see how it develops."

Teal'c silently watched the pilot for several seconds.  "Only you and Vala Mal Doran can decide whether or not your relationship has a future," he then said.  "There is, however, something I must say.  Though we may believe that we know all there is to know about ourselves, sometimes, what we believe is false."

Leaving Cameron with that thought, Teal'c turned around and exited the room.


It was later that morning that the SGC got word that the deal Cameron made with the raiders had been approved.  Now would begin the task of amassing the food and livestock and transporting it to the base.  Every member of SG-1 was delighted that they would have no part of that.  It was bad enough that they'd be the ones who'd have to get all of it through the Stargate and into the hands of the raiders, though they would have a bit of help in that regard.  Landry intended to gather every military man and woman on the base with experience in handling farm animals and send them through with SG-1.  Even so, the thought of dealing with the pigs was already giving Cameron nightmares.

Shortly before lunch, Daniel went to Sam's lab.  She didn't notice him at first, and he smiled as he watched her intently studying the device on the worktable.  As he stepped into the room, she became aware of his presence and lifted her head.  As their eyes locked upon each other, they could both see the desire for a kiss.  Unfortunately, it was a desire that could not be fulfilled, at least not at the present time.

"Will you be breaking for lunch today?" Daniel asked.

"Yeah, in a bit."

Daniel came up to her.  "I know this is probably not the best time to talk about this, but what are we going to do about this thing with us?"

"What do you mean?"

"We can't keep our relationship a secret forever."

"I know," she said.  "Eventually, we're going to have to tell Landry.  I'm not looking forward to it, though."

"Me neither.  I just hope that he doesn't insist that one of us transfer off the team."

"I'd be worried about that, too, if it wasn't for one thing."

"What's that?"

"I found out a few days ago that Captain Hopkins and Doctor Waterston are now dating.  They're both on SG-21.  General Landry must be aware of it, yet he hasn't taken either of them off the team."

"Well, that's a relief."  He thought of something.  "There is one possible problem, though."

"Oh?  What's that?"

"Um, as it turns out, we are not the only two members of SG-1 who are now in a relationship with each other."

Sam blinked in surprise.  "We're not?"

"Vala and Mitchell."

"Vala and Cam?!" Sam exclaimed.  "When on Earth did that start happening?"

"I'm not sure, sometime after Vala found out about my feelings for you."

Sam sat down heavily.  "Vala told me that she considered Cam to be a satisfactory second option, but I'd never in a million years have thought that something would actually happen between them."

Daniel almost laughed.  "A satisfactory second option?"

"Don't ask.  It was in a conversation she and I had about Jack.  So, the two of them have started dating?"

"Ummm. . . ."

Sam looked at the expression on his face, and her eyes widened as she realized what he wasn't saying.  "Oh my God."

"Yeah, that's what I said."

"How did you find out?"

"Vala."

"Why doesn't that surprise me?  You're right.  This does complicate matters."

"Yeah.  I'm afraid that we might have to call a medical team for Landry when he finds out."

"I wonder when Cam plans on letting the general know."

"I have no clue.  I am, however, thinking that it might be wise to tell Landry about us first.  Then it'll be Mitchell who has to deal with explaining the reason for the coronary."

"Good idea.  We need to wait until after the stuff with the Hedavi is all wrapped up, though."

Daniel nodded.  "Oh.  There's something else I have to tell you since you'll no doubt find out from Vala sooner or later anyway.  She knows that you and I have, uh, progressed beyond just dating."

The news made Sam blush.  "How did she find out?"

"She caught me with a gigantic grin on my face.  I was thinking about last night and this morning.  She confronted me about it, and I couldn't lie."

"Just great.  She does know enough not to blab it all over the base, doesn't she?"

"Yeah, I think so.  I didn't tell her not to say anything, but I should hope that she's smart enough to realize that we need to inform General Landry about our relationship before it's made common knowledge around base."

"I guess this is another reason why we need to come clean as soon as it's practical."

"Yeah."  Choosing not to think about that anymore, Daniel then said, "I was just about to go get lunch.  Could you take a break now and join me?"

Sam smiled.  "Now, how could I resist such an invitation?"

The conversation over lunch stuck to things going on at work.  After finishing their meal, Daniel and Sam left the commissary together.  As they got on the elevator, Daniel reached for the button for Level 19, but, on impulse, Sam stopped him and pressed the one for Level 17 instead.

"Um . . . where are we going?" Daniel asked.

"You'll see."

When they got off the elevator, Sam led Daniel to one of the empty rooms that were used for a variety of purposes as needed.  Puzzled, Daniel glanced about the room.

"There are no camera feeds from these rooms when they're not being used," Sam explained meaningfully.

Daniel instantly understood what she was really telling him.  He stepped forward, pulled her into his arms, and took her lips with his in a long, deep kiss.  He then slowly drew away and looked into her eyes.

"Well, that hit the spot," he said, smiling.

"Yes, it did."

"So, does this mean that, whenever I have the urge to kiss you, I can bring you here?"

"I wish.  Unfortunately, someone might start getting suspicious if we keep coming here."

"Well, then, I'd better make good use of this time."  Daniel followed those words up with another kiss, which Sam quite enthusiastically returned.

"You are coming to my place tonight, aren't you?" she asked.

"You'd better believe it.  Shall I bring dinner?"

"No, I'll fix something.  How does lasagne sound?"

"Perfect.  What time?"

"Seven o'clock."

"I'll be there."

They got back on the elevator, Daniel getting off on the next level down.  As he sat at his desk, he thought about how much he was looking forward to tonight.  He knew that he and Sam were acting more like hormone-driven teenagers than adults in their forties.  There was no mystery as to why he was acting this way.  Not only was this the first sex he'd had in a very, very long time, he was also having it with the woman he had come to realize was the love of his life.  But what about Sam?  She seemed to be craving it just as much as he was.  As far as he knew, she hadn't had a relationship with a man since Pete, so it had been quite a while for her, too, but was there more to it than that?  He really hoped so.  He wanted to believe that Sam's desire for him meant that she was starting to fall in love with him.

At that moment, the subject of his thoughts was sitting at her worktable, thinking about the same thing.  She couldn't believe how powerful her desire for Daniel was.  Yes, there had been other guys she'd wanted, the most recent of which being Pete, but always in the past she had shown a bit more restraint when it came to sex.  She and Pete dated for several weeks before she let him into her bed.  She dated Jonas for almost two months before it happened, and throughout their relationship, he was way more focused on the sex than she was.  Not that such a thing was unusual.  Guys usually were a lot more focused on sex than women.  Yet here she was, hardly able to wait until she could be with Daniel again.  Was it because he made her feel so good inside?  Was it because, when he made love to her, it felt like he was giving her every part of him?  Jonas had been a rather selfish lover, more interested in his own pleasure than hers.  Pete hadn't been that way, although, since they only slept together once, she had no way of knowing if that would have remained the same.  Even so, that one time with Pete could not come close to comparing with what she'd experienced with Daniel, nor could any time with any other lover she'd ever had.

Regardless of the reason for this desire, she really liked how she was feeling.  It felt good to have someone in her life with whom she couldn't wait to be . . . someone who felt the same way about her.  And, judging by the comment he'd made about sleeping alone, she suspected that in no time at all she'd have a drawer of her stuff at Daniel's.  Sam smiled at that thought, quite liking the idea.

At last turning her attention to her computer, Sam pushed from her mind thoughts of tonight and got back to work.


Upon hearing a knock on the door of his office, Cam told the person to enter.  Vala came in and shut the door behind her.  She then gazed at him for a moment.

"Cameron, could you come over here for a moment?"

"Why?"

"I'll explain when you get here."

Wondering what she was up to, Cam rose from his chair and walked up to her.  As soon as he reached her, she yanked his lips down to hers.  He jerked back, pulling away from her.

"What the hell are you doing?" he asked.  "I told you—"

"Yes, I know, I know," the woman interrupted impatiently.  "We're supposed to behave ourselves while on duty.  But what harm can a little kiss do?"

"Well, for one thing, if the person monitoring the camera feeds saw us, he'd report it."

"Which is why I asked you to come over here.  I've taken a look at the camera feeds, and I know that this part of the room is not covered."  Vala took a step toward him.  "I want you, Cameron.  It has been five days, and I don't know how much longer I can wait."

Cam admitted that his own desire for Vala had been growing stronger with each passing day.  Okay, so maybe there wouldn't be any harm in sharing a kiss.

"All right.  I guess a kiss would be okay."

Smiling, Vala wasted no time pulling his mouth back down to hers.  Though Cameron's intention was to keep the kiss light, that's not how it turned out.  The second that Vala's tongue entered his mouth, his self-control went up in flames.  Before he knew it, he had her pressed up against the door, one of her legs wrapped around his hips and one of his hands on her butt.  When Vala's hand crept under his T-shirt, he realized that he had to put a stop to what they were doing.  He took hold of her shoulders and gently pushed her away.

"That was way more than just a kiss," he said, just a wee bit out of breath.

"Sorry.  I couldn't help myself."  Vala's smile told him that she wasn't the least bit sorry.

Cam returned to his desk, figuring that the knowledge that he was now within view of the camera would help restore his determination not to let anything go on between them while on duty.

Vala came up to the desk and sat on the edge.  "I have an excellent idea."

"What's that?"

"We could go off-base for lunch . . . at your apartment."  She grinned.  "You have a term for that, do you not?  A nooner?"

An image of him and Vala having sex after a Big Mac and fries had Cam's temperature rising.

"I don't think that would be a good idea."

"Why not?  We would not be on duty, and no one would have a reason to suspect anything."

Cam's determination started to waver.  She did have a point.  They would both be off-duty, in the privacy of his home, and, as long as they weren't gone too long, no one would have a reason to question the absence.  He had tomorrow and Sunday off and had been intending to get Vala over to his place on one of those days, but, after the kiss they'd just shared, tomorrow felt like a long time from now.

Certain that Cam was going to say no, Vala was all set to do some more convincing.  She was quite pleasantly surprised when, instead, he said, "Okay."

"Okay?" she repeated with a smile.

"Yeah."

They went to the locker rooms and changed into their civvies, then left the base.  They stopped at the first fast food place they came to, which turned out to be a McDonald's.  As he ordered a Big Mac and fries, Cam couldn't help but smile.

The Big Mac and fries ended up not getting eaten, at least not right away.  The second they were in Cam's apartment, Vala was attacking his clothing, all but ripping it off.  He made short work of her clothes, and the two of them stumbled to the bedroom.  They fell onto the bed, Cam on top, his mouth locked upon Vala's.  She arched up against him, hips jerking against his.

Click here to go to version with milder sexual content.

"Now, Cameron," she moaned.  "I want you now."

Realizing that she was already ready for him, Cam thrust into her hard and fast.  He immediately launched into a fast tempo that had both of them crying out.  In no time at all they were approaching the brink.  They sailed over the edge together.

"Well, that didn't take long," Cam remarked after his breathing had slowed.  He was now lying on his back, Vala in a similar position beside him.  At his remark, she rolled onto her side and started playing with his chest hair.

"I could not wait to have you."  She gave him a smile.  "We will have plenty of time for foreplay tonight."

Cam looked at her.  "Tonight?  Vala, we can't get together tonight.  This worked out all right, but you coming over to my place in the evening is too dangerous."

"We could say that I'm coming over to watch another game.  We could even say that Daniel is going to be there as well.  He will back us up."

Cam stared at her, frowning.  "Why would he do that?"

Vala's gaze slid away to a spot on Cam's chest.

The pilot's frown deepened.  "Vala?  What aren't you telling me?"

"I kind of . . . told Daniel about us."

"You what?!" Cameron bellowed.  He sat up and glared down at her.  "Why the hell did you do that?"

"I was talking to him about his relationship with Samantha, and he asked if I'd followed his advice about you.  What I said made him realize that we'd slept together, and I confirmed it."

Cam's thoughts were sidetracked for a moment. "What advice about me?"

"He figured out that I was going after you and told me that if I was only doing it because I couldn't have him, I should to leave you alone."

That surprised Cameron.  "He did?"

"I believe he was concerned for you."

Cam was happy to know that Daniel had been looking out for him.  His thoughts then turned back to the fact that the archeologist knew about him and Vala.  It was a sure bet that Sam now did as well.  Great.  The entire team now knew that he was doing the wild thing with a woman who was under his command.

"I'm sure it will be all right, Cameron," Vala said.  "After all, Daniel and Samantha are having sex as well."

Cam focused another stare upon her.  "And you know that because. . . ."

"Daniel admitted it to me after I found him smiling like a man who'd recently had mild-blowing sex.  Based upon what he said, I'm guessing that he and Samantha really got it on."

Cam held up his hand.  "Okay, stop right there.  That is definitely TMI."

Vala's brow creased in confusion.  "TMI?"

"Too much information.  I don't want to know any more about what he and Sam are and are not doing with each other."  He paused.  "Although I'm guessing this means that their relationship is going to keep on going.  That's good news.  No transfer for Jackson to Atlantis."

Vala smiled brightly.  "Yes, isn't it wonderful?"  Her smiled turned sultry.  "Speaking of wonderful," her hand glided down his body to a certain part of him, which she began to stroke, "I doubt that anyone would say anything if we took an extra long lunch break."

Vala's touch on that portion of his anatomy had Cam's respiration speeding back up.  He really wished that he could do what Vala wanted and stay right there in bed for another hour or so.  Unfortunately, they couldn't.  He gently removed her hand from his body.

"I wish we could, but it wouldn't be wise.  We have to be careful, Vala, at least until we're ready to tell Landry about us."  His gaze sharpened.  "Are you ready to do that?"

Vala thought about it.  Once they revealed their relationship to the general, there would be the possibility that he'd take her off the team, and she really didn't want that.  Was she willing to risk her position on SG-1 for what she had with Cameron?  It was true that the sex was phenomenal.  It was also true that he made her feel really good.  What they had together was great.  In fact, it was the most satisfying relationship she'd had with a man in a very long time.  On the other hand, they'd only been together for five days, so what she was feeling now might change.  Why risk her position on SG-1 for a relationship that could be over in a month?

"I don't think I am ready for that yet," Vala replied.  She looked at her lover. "What about you?"

It was now Cam's turn to think about it and what he said to Teal'c.  Unlike Vala, he was not in danger of losing his place on SG-1, but it definitely would not endear him to Landry and could cause some problems for him with the people in charge of the program.  He had no idea how General O'Neill would react.

If he was in love with Vala, he'd be willing to go through anything to stay with her, but that was not the case.  Yes, she did make him feel great, and the sex was pretty much the best he'd ever had, but what he felt for her was not the same as what he did for Amy back when they were in school.  He had doubts that he'd ever feel that way about her.

"I'm not ready yet either," he answered.

Vala smiled.  "Then we are in agreement."

"Yep, which means that we need to eat our lunch and get back to the base."

After getting dressed, they warmed up their food and sat on the couch to eat it.

Vala made a face when she took a bite of a french fry.  "It does not taste as good."

"No, fries don't do so well in the microwave.  But it's your fault that we didn't eat them when they were fresh."

"Yes, but sex with you is way better than french fries, Cameron."

Cam let out a laugh.  "Thanks.  I'm so happy to hear that."

They were about halfway through their lunch when Cam looked at Vala and noticed a bit of ketchup on her face.  For some reason, it made her look adorable, and he smiled.

"What?" she asked.

In reply, he reached out and brushed the ketchup off with his fingertips.  Vala's hand came up, and their fingers touched.  Their eyes caught, and Cam felt something stir in the region of his heart, something that made him want to pull her into his arms and do nothing more than kiss her for the next hour.

A little unsettled by the feeling, he pulled back.  "You, um, had ketchup on your cheek."  He wiped his fingers clean with his napkin and went back to eating.

"Oh," Vala responded.  She looked down at her own food, confused about what just happened.  What she'd just felt when their eyes met was not quite like anything she'd ever felt before, a feeling that made her wish that the two of them could go away somewhere and do nothing but make love and be with each other.

Dismissing the feeling, Vala resumed eating.

They left as soon as they were finished, Cameron hoping that no one would question the length of their lunch break.

Back at the base, he was heading for his office when he bumped into Sam.

"Oh, um . . . hi, Cam," the astrophysicist said, acting a little uncomfortable.

He stared at her for a moment.  "Jackson told you, didn't he."

"Told me what?" Sam asked, trying to act like she really didn't know.

"Sam."

Upon hearing the tone of Cameron's voice, Sam sighed.  "Yes, he told me."

"And I bet you think I'm crazy."

"Welllll . . . I am kind of wondering about it."

Cam nodded.  "Come on.  Let's go where we can talk."

They went to his office.

"It just really shocked me," Sam admitted.  "I mean, you and Vala?  I'd never have seen that one coming."

"You and me both, Sam."

"So, how did it happen?"

Cam told her pretty much the same thing he told Teal'c . . . minus the whining.

"If I had a brain in my head, I'd have ended it there," he said.

"But?"

"But, as much as it surprises me to admit it, she makes me feel good.  Of course, she also drives me insane."

Sam smiled.  "You're joining Daniel in that regard.  He told me that he thought about murdering her quite often."

"Well, I haven't had thoughts of murder yet, but that may come in time."  Cam shook his head.  "She really isn't like any woman I've been with before.  One moment, she's as frustrating as hell, and, the next. . . ."

"What?" Sam encouraged gently.

"There is a side to her that she hides most of the time.  She isn't as tough as she pretends to be.  I've seen it come out more than once, and . . . I like it."

Sam studied him closely.  "Cam, are you falling in love with her?"

"No.  Absolutely not.  Yes, I care about her, and, yes, what we've had these past few days has been great, but it's nothing more than that."  It was his turn to study Sam.  "Speaking of love, I understand there have been some . . . developments between you and Jackson."

Sam covered her face.  "Oh, God.  Vala told you, didn't she.  I just knew she wouldn't be able to keep her mouth shut."

"Hey, it's okay, Sam.  I doubt she's told anyone else.  As for me, I think it's great.  I'm delighted to know that this thing between you and Jackson is progressing so well.  I know that it's making him happy," Cam paused, "and I would assume that it's making you happy, too."

A gentle smile came to Sam's lips.  "Yes, it is.  What we have together is so fantastic.  If I'd had any clue that it could be this way between us, I'd have considered a relationship with him years ago."

Cam was tempted to ask Sam if she was in love with Daniel, but he decided against it.

"Well, I'm happy that you're happy."

"Thanks."

Sam returned to her lab.  She remained there until five o'clock.  It was very unusual for her to leave work so early, but she had lots to do before seven.

Sam spent quite a while at the grocery story, trying to decide what she was going to fix for dinner.  She wasn't a great cook, but she wanted this dinner to be good – even though neither of them were going to be focused on the food.

Dinner was almost ready when the doorbell rang.  Sam answered it with a smile, which was returned by the man standing on the porch.  Daniel stepped inside and gave her a kiss.

"Mmm.  Smells delicious," he said.

"Thanks.  I hope it tastes as good as it smells."

Sam returned to the kitchen, Daniel following her.

"Can I help?" he asked.

"Sure.  You can make the salad.  All the fixings are in the fridge."

Daniel pulled everything out and got busy on the salad.

"Cam knows about us," Sam said after a while.

Daniel let out a sigh.  "Vala?"

"Yes."

"What did he say?"

"He's happy for us.  I, um, sort of talked to him about the thing with Vala."

"Oh.  What did he say about that?"

"I think he's falling for her."

That shocked Daniel.  He stared at her.  "You do?"

"Well, he denied it, but there was just something about the look on his face."  Sam shook her head.  "I don't know.  Maybe I'm wrong.  Actually, thinking about it, I hope that I am wrong."

"Why do you say that?"

"Because I don't want to see him get hurt.  I mean, this is Vala we're talking about.  What hope is there that she could feel anything like that for him?  She's probably just interested in the sex."

"I suppose you could be right about that, but Vala isn't as shallow as she seems to be on the surface.  She's been through a lot, not the least of which was being made into a host, and I sometimes think that she acts the way she does as a form of protection."

"I guess you may be right about that."  She gave Daniel a kiss.  "Let's not talk about Cam and Vala anymore.  Tonight is for us."

Dinner was delicious, and Daniel was sure to tell Sam that.  They were busy rinsing off the dishes when he moved in behind her and began kissing the back of her neck, which got an instant reaction from her.  The pitch of her breathing increased, her eyes fluttering closed.  Very deliberately, he reached around her and shut off the water.  He then turned her around to face him.  In the next second, his mouth was on hers in a heated kiss.

Now hungry for something else, they just about devoured each other.  Hands joined the impassioned search and soon made it past the barrier of clothing.  The skirt of Sam's dress was bunched up around her waist, her body pressed back against the kitchen counter.  Feeling Daniel's arousal against her, Sam spread her legs farther apart and rubbed her pelvis against his.  He responded by slipping a thigh between her legs and pressing upward, which elicited a moan from her.  She wrestled his shirt off, then set about divesting him of his pants.  She got as far as unzipping his fly before he yanked down her panties and lifted her up on the counter.  Seconds later, he was inside her.

Their lovemaking was hot and wildly passionate, and it didn't take long for them to reach the peak.  Afterwards, then clung to each other as their bodies gradually calmed.  Feeling just a bit shaky in the legs, Daniel leaned forward against the counter.

"Wow," Sam breathed.  "We keep making love like that, and, sooner or later, one of us is going to keel over."

"Yeah, but what a way to go."

Sam laughed and kissed him.  "Come on.  There is a bed that's waiting for us."

After taking turns in the bathroom, the lovers shed the rest of their clothes and got under the covers, going into each other's arms.  They lay in silence for a while, just enjoying being there together.

"I've been thinking about Jack," Daniel finally said.  "I think that we should tell him that we're together before we tell Landry.  It seems only right to do so."

Sam thought about that.  "I guess you're right, especially since he already knows that we started dating.  You haven't talked to him since that call you made to him?"

"No.  Frankly, I'm surprised that he hasn't called me to find out how things are going."

"Well, maybe he figured that you'd call him when you were ready to give him an update."

Daniel nodded, figuring that she was right.  "I'll call him tomorrow."  He looked at her.  "Speaking of tomorrow, you and I both have it and Sunday off, and I can't think of a better way to spend the weekend than together."

Sam grinned at him.  "Neither can I."

They came together in a long kiss, thinking about how terrific this weekend was going to be.
