"Sam?" Cassie poked her head around the front door. "You in?" ~Of course she's in, idiot- the door's unlocked~

"Cassie? Come on in, I'm in the kitchen." Cassie stepped through the threshold and closed the door behind her. Placing her bags on the floor and her coat on the peg in the hall, she made her way through to the kitchen.

"Hey Sam." Sam hugged the younger woman.

"You want a drink?" Cassie nodded.

"Have you got any Diet Soda?" Sam opened the fridge and pulled out two diet sodas. She shut the door and moved over to the kitchen table where Cassie was now sitting and handed her one of the cans. They both pulled the tabs off the cans and sat sipping their drinks.

"So, got anything planned for us later?" Sam shook her head.

"Not really. I thought we could order take-out and rent a movie, if that's ok?" Cassie finished her soda.

"Sounds great! Can we have pizza? Oh and I've been wanting to see Chocolat…" Cassie blushed, which Sam noticed and grinned at.

"Johnny Depp now eh, Cass? Isn't he a little old for you?" Cassie smiled.

"Oh. I've got a little something for you. I saw it while I was shopping earlier and thought of you … well kinda…" She got up and walked into the hall where she'd left her bags. Picking out the correct one, she made her way back through to the kitchen where she passed the bag over to Sam.

"Oh, Cass you didn't have to…" Cassie cut her off.

"Just try it on, okay?" And with that she shoved Sam into the bathroom.

Sam returned less than a minute later wearing the item Cassie had bought for her. She had a strange look on her face that Cassie hadn't seen before.

"Cass… why did you get me this? I mean, I love it, and its my favorite color… well, colors actually, but still. Why?" Cassie tipped her head to the side and smiled at her 'aunt'.

"Its obvious isn't it? No? Ok, I mean it's ironic that you can 'wear' O'Neill, but you can't actually have Ja…" Sam hastily cut in.

"Cassie! I… We…" unfortunately she didn't get a chance to finish what she was going to tell Cassie- the door-bell rang. And rang. And started ringing again.

"You going to get that?" Sam glowered at Cassie who merely smirked.
"Alright. I'm coming. I'm coming." As Sam opened the door; a look of surprise was evident on her face as the person was revealed.

"Sir!" Jack O'Neill stood on Sam's doorstep. Staring at her. Well at her chest actually.

"Si…" Jack lifted his eyes to her face.

"Carter… why is my name emblazoned on your front?"
