Chapter 6

Hello friends! Well I have come to the end of this story. I'll be back with another one… soon; leave your comments.

And a thousand thanks to everyone!

Enjoy!

Jack stood there staring at the house, hoping the woman would come out again so he could see , but that didn't happen.

Something inside him screamed that he needed to know her, to see her face.

It was something he could not understand, this only happened with ...

Suddenly his senses were all on alert, his thoughts flooded his mind.

What if it was? ... no! It couldn't be she; he had never come to this place ... And, but if ... No, forget it, he told himself. It's not she, it's just my mind playing tricks on me.

He shook his head, blowing all those thoughts away. He turned around and started back to the bridge that led to the other side.

At home, his mind wandered again and again bringing the figure of that woman on the balcony, and then across the lake.

He kicked himself for invading his mind with thoughts of another woman, how could he do that to Sam?

Already tired, and having been like this all day, he put himself on his coat, got into his truck and went to the bar.

"Friend!"

"Hi Mike"

"What a face, Jack. What's wrong?

"Nothing ... it's just ... nothing forget it"

"Come on, friend, tell me"

"Today I went out to walk through the forest, and as if my body knew where I should go, I arrived at the forest house"

"WOW! And why did you do that?"

"I don't know ... I just can't stop thinking about she"

"Did she see you? Did you speak to him?"

"No ... I couldn't even see her well, I was sitting on the balcony covered with a blanket, but ... I don't know why ... I just know that I need to know who she is"

Suddenly there was the sound of the door

"Well Jack, I think you're in luck"

Sam was determined to leave before things got complicated, she was meditating, thinking sitting on the balcony, this place was indeed magical.

She loaded everything into her car, and left the house. She drove for a couple of miles, but something made her stop.

Her head and her heart were in conflict.

She resignedly rested her forehead on the wheel.

Her heart told her to fight, that this was the opportunity she had hoped for.

But her head told her that she could never have it.

Once more the tears ran down her face.

Wiping herself angrily, she started the car and made a U-turn on the road, in a few minutes she was back in her cabin.

The day passed for Sam with the fierce battle between her rational thoughts and her broken heart.

Already at night, tired of thinking about the same matter, she put on her coat, took her keys, and went to town.

She reached the bar, got out of the car, and absorbed in her tireless thoughts, did not see the black truck stopped in the parking lot.

When she opened the door, she took off her hat, and went inside, panned the place and suddenly, her wall crossed the deep brown eyes that she knew so much. On impulse, she opened the door and fled.

Jack turned to look at the direction that Mike had pointed, and there he saw her ... her gray-blue eyes stared at him.

When he got up from his chair, she turned around and fled from the bar.

"SAM !"

Jack ran after her, but was too late. he taillights of the car were driving down the road.

I need to leave as soon as possible, Sam said to herself, the moment she left the house she didn't realize that he could be at the bar too, this was the fault of the disagreement between her mind and her heart, she couldn't go back to allow it.

SGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSGSS

Without hesitation for a minute, she entered the bar again, and picked up her jacket.

"Jack! What's up dude?"

"Is she ... Sam"

"The woman in the cabin?"

"Yes, I need to go find her or she will disappear again"

She immediately left the bar, climbed into her truck, and hurried to Sam's cabin.

Now she understood why her body and instincts behaved like this, all along had been close to her.

In record time, he was parked outside the cabin, his car was still here, so she hadn't escaped yet.

She hurriedly got out, and knocked on her door, there was no response.

"SAM ! open Please! I know you're inside !"

Waited, but got no response

"Please Sam, I need to talk to you."

I hear movements on the other side

"Go colonel !"

"No, I'm not! I won't leave until I talk to you !"

"I don't want to talk to you, Lord, please go away"

"No more Lord. Sam, please, I'm just Jack, open ... please ... "

"Just ... leave me please"

"Sam ... I need to talk to you, I've been looking for you for eight months, desperately wanting to find you"

"I do not want anyone to look for me"

"But nevertheless, you are here, in my favorite place"

"Just leave, and tomorrow I won't be here anymore"

"I'm not going to let you go anywhere"

"Mister please…"

"Is that enough, sir, do you want?! ... I retired"

Suddenly she heard the sound of the door opening, but only to better hear what she had to say, however, she he drove behind the door, hidden from view.

"he retired? Why?"

"Let me in, and I'll tell you everything"

The door opened a little more, revealing a Sam Carter somewhat different from how he had last seen her, her hair had grown a little, and she combed it differently, and her sad look, with teary eyes, evidence of a recent cry

He entered slowly, not wanting to look directly at her yet.

He stood in the middle of the room near the burning fire.

He saw a bag on the floor and understood that he had arrived just in time.

He raised his head and saw her standing near the door.

"Sam ..."

"Sir…"

"I told you to retire ..."

"Why?"

"For you…

Sam widened his eyes in amazement "What?"

"I couldn't go on like this, when you left ... you took something with you that I need"

"I don't understand" he said with growing confusion in his gaze

"I thought you were smart, Carter" Drawing a smile, which I immediately discard when I see his hardness in his gaze. "I'm not good with words, you know that ... but ... does a person need his heart to continue living wise?"

"What is Colonel saying?"

Sam. Call me Jack please." Taking off her coat, he got a little closer to her, who was still standing in the same place he left her when he entered. "The day you left, you took my heart with you ... and I can't live without him and ... without you"

Sam's eyes were shining again, holding back tears.

"I do not…"

"Sam ... I had a hard time understanding at first, but ... once I got all those contained feelings out of that room, I understood that ... I need you ... I can't continue this battle alone"

Sam stepped back, understanding that he was talking about work at SGC and his performance as second-in-command in the unit. But Jack stopped her by grabbing her by both arms.

"Not! Don't stay away from me, please"

"I ... I'm not going back to the SGC"

"I don't want you to do that" I needed to explain more "when I received your letter ... suddenly I didn't find myself anymore, and I knew immediately that I'm complete just because you're there, watching my six" I curl the corner of his lips in a smile, remembering the days together in the field. "And I understood, that not only do I need you to take care of my back out there, but I need you here, when we return, and it's just us"

Sam who couldn't hold back the tears now asked

"And what am I supposed to do now? I just put reverse and go back to how we were?

"No ... I retired, to be with you, I want this Sam, I want you in my life, every day, I want ... to be together at the end of the day"

Overwhelmed, she covered her face with her hands and fell to her knees on the floor, unable to bear any more tension, immediately he crouched down beside her.

Sam! Come…" and finally taking her in his arms he hugged her with suppressed strength. She clung to him like a castaway to her life preserver.

"Sam? ... talk to me"

Slowly he pulled away from her chest, and looked into his eyes for the first time since he had entered the house.

"I left because I could no longer be near you, without reproaching myself for the undue desires I had, I did not want to endanger the team, and ... I was no longer sure what you felt, or if it was real or was just a product of me subconscious all the time. " She paused to wipe away the tears that filled her face. And I continue speaking to him with my heart in my hand. "The experience aboard Prometheus was ... heartbreaking for me, I knew I could not have what my heart wanted, ever, and the day I woke up in the infirmary ... I saw you, and I thought you were the same person who was up there with me, but it wasn't, and… I just couldn't take another hit"

"But now I am here, to support you if you fall, just like now"

"Now ... I don't know if this is real, or is it just creating my mind again"

"What exactly are we talking about up there?"

"You said, that ... you were a safe bet ... and that you would always be with me despite everything"

"And so, it is, I will always be by your side, as now, here, I did not think I would find you, I will not let you go"

"I also ... understood that ... I'm the one with the problem ... I told you that ... as long as I was thinking about you, with my eyes on what I think was unattainable, nothing could hurt me anymore"

"It was a deep conversation," he said jokingly, but she kept staring blankly at him. Sam, I'm not unreachable, ever again. I love you"

Inevitably more tears welled up in her eyes, and she finally said something that Jack would have kept in her soul for the rest of the time she had left.

"I love you too Jack"

Jack looked her straight in the eyes, those gray-blue eyes he loved to see every morning at the briefing, or at breakfast when they were on mission in another world, he loved her, and he would fulfill his promise never to leave her alone.

Still on the ground, he leaned down slowly and captured her lips in a deep, sweet kiss, where their feelings became one.

The snow had begun to fall relentlessly, the fire was burning inside the cabin, and at last Sam and Jack left their fears behind and led to their irrepressible love.
