Link: The Zen of Dancing

Why This Must Be Read: A prequel to my previous rec in this category, "Come Fly With Me". Sam gets asked out for dancing by a handsome Captain, but it's not the kind of dancing everyone thinks... Sam is amazing and does a lot of thinking about Jack. Jack is wistful about missing out on the 'dancing'. In all, this is one of those fics that is simply a lovely, sweet read with little peeks into the characters' hearts

Snippet of fic:


"Major Samantha Carter?" the handsome Captain had placed his cover neatly on his head and stood at attention before Sam.

"Yes, Captain?" Sam returned evenly while the rest of the group waited patiently... all except for Cassie.

"Major Carter, Captain Gregory Thomas respectfully requests you to the dance tomorrow," the Captain responded.

Sam smiled and sighed, "At ease, Captain," she gave him an amused look and glanced at the group assembled around the SUV. "Let me introduce you to a few folks... Captain Greg Thomas, this is Doctor Janet Frasier and her daughter Cassandra..., this is Doctor Daniel Jackson, archeologist...., this is Teal'c...., and this is Colonel Jack O'Neill." Each of them nodded or waved politely as they were introduced. Turning back to the handsome Captain, she smiled and shook her head at him, "Now Greg, I already explained that I have a prior obligation and I can't make it this weekend."   

Thomas's eyes scanned the assortment of people and the pile of gear stuffed into the back of the SUV. "Mmmm.....," and he smiled at them all and then fixed Sam with his eyes.  "Looks like you are going camping... mmmmm... yeah... dirt... twigs... lumpy sleeping bags....," and he glanced over at her and she was rolling her eyes, "and you want to do this instead of dancing with me?”

"Greg...," she started to speak and he interrupted. "You know, I put this monkey suit on just to impress you. I know that you think I look hot in it," he tried teasing her.

"Oh, yeah... you do look hot in it... too bad you had to go and spoil it by opening that mouth of yours," she teased him right back while shaking her head ‘no.'

He sighed. "Well, I had to try. You are really going to be missing out this weekend.... When you're laying in the dirt, trying to sleep, just remember.... I had a little bit of everything planned... a little Tango here and there... a little Salsa…"

She was smiling and shaking her head at him, "You are incorrigible... and tempting," she raised her eyebrows at him, "but you know I can't go. Next time.... I promise."

With one last attempt, he pulled some papers out of his pockets, "I have reservations... and everything's booked... all ready to go...," and he looked at her hopefully.

"Greg! You are impossible!" she was laughing now, "But I can't, and you know it.”

"Sam?" Cassie was calling for her attention.

"Yeah, honey?" Sam turned back to see the young girl gesturing for her to come over to talk privately.  Turning back to Thomas, "Greg, I'll be right back," and she stepped over to the other side of the SUV with Cassie.

Cassie spoke in a low voice so that the Captain couldn't hear them, "He's cute, Sam.”

Smiling at the teenager, Sam replied, "Yes, yes he is.”

"Are you canceling out on him so that you can go with us?" Cassie asked.

"Well, yes, honey, but I really, really do want to go with you guys," Sam assured her.

"But.... he's -really, really- cute, Sam," the teenager had a young predatory look on her face and Sam couldn't help but laugh a little.

"Yes, he always has been...," Sam agreed.

"So... you should go out with him, then... and not with us....," Cassie assessed to Sam's surprise.
