Happiness.
Contentment.
Fulfilment.
These are all the things I see in the picture I hold in my hands.
Samantha left it behind. Whether by accident or otherwise, I’m not sure, but a part of me is glad that she did. It lends hope to what has been a lost situation.
The situation being me and Jack O’Neill.
Granted, it’s a recently born situation, but I can feel that it could very easily escalate way out of ours, or anyone else’s control.
My thoughts return to the picture and then it occurs to me. I’ve never seen him smile. Not properly. They must have been so happy.
The team arrived back yesterday from her reality, and I can’t help but wonder how she’s coping.
I know that if I lost…him…
Oh god.
