Second Floor Common Room, a little after noon

Parker was talking as she entered the common room. "And this is the Second Floor Common Room, which is the best, of course. Anyone will tell you that. It got blown up once, but then it was fixed."

She flipped on the TV set and started looking for Smile Time or a monster movie.

And possibly other students to inflict wee tiny grown ups on.

[so very very open: Jarod & Rose in tow just for starters]

"Definitely more than a year," he agreed, privately surprised that there wasn't flailing. On either of their parts. "Both her parents must have been very pretty."

Sam looked at the little girl and nodded, trying not to hyperventilate. "And probably humanoid."

"Yup. And if she's got this much confidence at this age, they must have loved her a lot." And no, there was nothing wistful about how he said that. At all. Definitely not. Nope. "She might even take over the world one day."

"I'm sure you do," Sam said, a little sad at the idea that Jack had fathered a child with someone else, though she supposed it was probably inevitable once they split. "The idea of your daughter taking over the world doesn't seem impossible," she smiled.

"She didn't get the blonde hair from me," he pointed out. "And my daughter'd be more likely to seduce the world out from under everybody, then steal it."

"So you'll need to keep an eye out for a pretty blonde thief," Sam teased gently.

"I guess I will." Jack glanced down at Aly, smiling slightly. "Though if the kid's anything to go by, she's probably going to find me."

"Oh?" Yeah, Sam was trying not to ache about this. "Why do you say that?"

[identity profile] anextimeagent.livejournal.com 2007-02-17 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
"Well, she's pretty bold. Her mom must have been the same," he said kind of sadly, wondering if Sam changed her mind and came to the Agency, this little girl would go poof and stop existing. "Not the kind to wait around to be seduced."

"I can't imagine you with a shrinking violet, anyway," Sam said, trying to swallow the lump in her throat. "You need someone who shakes you up."

Aly for the moment forgotten, Jack stared at Sam, eyes dark. "I have what I need." Even if he wasn't going to have it for much longer.

"I'm glad," Sam met his eyes, and tried not to imagine the woman who would give Jack his daughter.

"Me too." He looked away and took a deep breath, and when he looked back, his trademark grin was firmly in place. "Stay the night tonight?"

[identity profile] carter-i-am.livejournal.com 2007-02-18 12:14 am (UTC)(link)
Sam took a deep breath of her own. "Oh, yeah."

[identity profile] anextimeagent.livejournal.com 2007-02-18 12:23 am (UTC)(link)
His grin got wider. "My place or yours?"

[identity profile] carter-i-am.livejournal.com 2007-02-18 12:28 am (UTC)(link)
"Up to you," Sam didn't really care, and was trying to fight down the urge to be monumentally stupid. Sometimes having a 40 year old female brain wasn't all it was cracked up to be.

"Mine then," he said, and didn't say anything else. Nothing rushing through his mind was kid-safe, and it probably showed in his smile.

[identity profile] carter-i-am.livejournal.com 2007-02-18 12:46 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that smile definitely wasn't helping matters. "I'll see you later?"

[identity profile] anextimeagent.livejournal.com 2007-02-18 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
Jack nodded slowly. "I'll be waiting for you."

"Okay, then, I'm just gonna...go, then," Sam said, forgetting her coffee on the counter. Maybe soaking her head in a cold shower would bring her back to her senses.
