[IC] I don't belong - Tenth Doctor x Jack (me and Jazz)

[Magic223]

Title- I messed it up , It is "Need you"

The Doctor was travelling alone, he didn’t have anybody with him, he often thought about Jack and what he would be doing. He knew Jack was often busy with Torchwood, he though did want to visit his friend. He hated the loneliness and he knew Jack knew what it was like to be lonely and living a long time.
While flying the TARDIS, he was sure the TARDIS was picking out somebody calling his name. He was sure it sounded like Jack, but he couldn’t be so sure of that really. But either way the Doctor was going to find out, he was always quick to go and find out who needed his help. He would never leave anybody who needed help if he could.

The Doctor flew the TARDIS to where he knew the voice was coming from. If it was Jack, he wondered what the immortal was doing, it hadn’t been often Jack would call out for help like that. He found himself beginning to worry.
Had something happened to Jack. The Doctor really cared about his friend and never wanted anything to happen to him.
Even if Jack couldn’t die the Doctor did still worry.

Jazz
Sick, lost, and scared....

In the middle of nowhere, unsure where he, Jack was just roaming aimlessly with rain falling in the area he was in. His vision and mind hazy, all he could think about was how he was going to get back to Torchwood and get the proper care to get rid of this illness he had. He didn't know how he got into the middle of nowhere. His feet sore, his throat dry, his stomach growling, Captain Jack Harkness continued his aimless trek into the unknown lands that he walked through, keeping his favorite over coat wrapped around him, knowing this was the only sense of security he was going to get against the remaining elements.

His trek through the lands unknown to him didn't last him long for he was exhausted and still in the middle of nowhere with no sight of inhabitants. Looking to the cloudy skies with the rain still pouring, he realized he could possibly call for help. But unsure if this supposed help could hear him. 'It is worth a shot...I am out of options...He's my only hope...' Shivering, lonely and still scared, Harkness hoped his call would reach out. "Doctor! Help!" He stopped a moment and looked around. "DOCTOR! PLEASE!"

MAgic

Jack meant a lot to the Doctor, more than he even admitted to himself sometimes. He knew that it was his fault Jack was even immortal in the first place. He really wanted to make sure he was there for Jack if he needed him. It would be cruel to leave Jack if the immortal needed his help. He wasn’t about to leave him.

The Doctor landed the TARDIS where he knew Jack would be, he threw open the doors and saw Jack exhausted and scared looking. He was sure that the man was ill, it wasn’t often that he had seen his friend ill, if at all. Last time it was the Doctor who had needed Jack’s care. He goes over to his friend and smiled.
“Come lets get you out of the rain before you get even worse.” He knew Jack wouldn’t die, but it wasn’t nice being sick.

The Doctor smiled and helps Jack to the TARDIS where he gets him a room and gets him a blanket, though he tosses the man a towel first so he can dry off.
“What happened?” The Doctor asked him. He didn’t know why Jack was out his way and in the rain when he was sick. He knew for any normal human that wasn’t good. But Jack wasn’t normal and could survive it.
Jazz
Harkness was looking around as he made sure that his over coat was securely around him while looking for the familiar blue Police box. Feeling the notion about almost giving up, Jack heard the familiar sounds of the Big blue box. Facing the direction it was landing, wanting to smile but not being able to for he was unsure what may happen. 'Please dont leave me here to suffer...' He thought, his eyes obviously showing how scared he was.

Seeing the Time Lord opened the door and step out into the rain to see him, Jack was relieved to see him and willing to accept help from his best friend. Walking into the TARDIS, he felt the security, warmth and comfort that the TARDIS gave every time he would walk inside it. Catching the towel that hit his face, the immortal took off his over coat, sliding his suspenders off his shoulders and unbuttoning his shirt and taking it off so his cold wouldnt get worse, setting it on the railing to dry while he dried his hair, arms, and torso. Hearing the Doctor's question, he didnt bother to take off his shoes though it may make his illness worse. "I...I don't know. It's all fuzzy...I remember working a case with Qwen and Ianto. After we finished, they headed home and after that it just got hazy. I woke up in the middle of nowhere feeling sick. The rain didnt help. I guess I been out in the rain for a few days and been and walking for a few more after that." Jack began coughing like he had a sore throat on top of illness. Jack made sure to cover his mouth when he coughed, his face showing the painful experience he was having.
Magic
The Time Lord looked at him “Its not like you to be ill that much, Guess just bad luck hah?” he knows he needs to get Jack’s shoes off, he careful takes them off. He knows he should contact Torchwood to let them know Jack is safe, but for now he just wants to look after his friend. He could see Jack was quite miserable.
Though The Doctor always makes sure his friends get better, He wraps the blankets around Jack when he’s all dry.

The Doctor smiled and gets him some water “Here, are you hungry?” he doubts Jack has eaten anything while out there, but he’s unsure just how sick his friend is feeling right now. He doesn’t want to upset his stomach. The Doctor careful places a hand on Jack’s forehead to check for a fever.
“I’ll make sure you get better, some tea might help your throat.” Though Jack’s flirting could be annoying sometimes, he did care about Jack and wouldn’t wish illness on any of his friends. He rubbed Jack’s back as he coughed, he was attempting to calm him down. He smiled softly and made sure Jack was comfortable.
“How about you rest while I make you some soup and tea, that’s if you want it.” He knew Jack needed to get some rest and be warmed up. He was worried and hugged him softly, he wasn’t wary of catching a cold from Jack, he didn’t care, he just wanted his friend well again.
Jazz
Jack chuckled weakly, "Yeah...guess it is..." Jack indeed felt miserable and wanted to get better. Sitting on the lounge chair there, he noted that a little later on, his shoes were no longer on his feet and maybe is socks. All he knew was that his feet were cold and he sat cris cross on the lounge chair, keeping the blanket securely around him. Jack felt the back of the doctor's hand against his forehead like he was checking for a fever. Jack was indeed running a fever but it was a mild fever. It would take some time before Jack would feel well again. The Immortal was enjoying the Time Lord's touch for he had leaned into his hand a little. Jack coughed again, feeling a hand rub his back to calm and soothe him. He smiled at the Doctor's continuous rephrasing of the decisions of what he was going to do for Jack. "Soup and some tea does sound nice..." Feeling a warm body next to him, Jack leaned into the warmth of the Doctor's embrace. "Mind if I have a warm bath and some dry clothes...?" Harkness asked him, though he didnt want to leave the Doctor's embrace.

Magic
The Doctor smiled a bit . He luckily had a lot of clothes aboard the TARDIS. He wanted to make sure Jack was comfortable. He smiled a bit and gets him some dry clothes “Course not, here go take a bath and the spare bedroom is yours.”
He knew Jack would be more comfortable in a bed. Looking after his friends was never a burden, it just was what he wanted to do.

“I’ll go make some soup and call your friends to let them know you are safe” he could see Jack was enjoying the comfort. It was too hard to leave him like that, but he could always hug him more after, he hoped he still had some medicine. Though he knew he would have to go and gets some from a store if he didn’t.
Once he headed to the kitchen, he got out some things for soup and called Torchwood.
“Yeah I found Jack, he’s just ill, I’ll take care of him though,” he was talking to Ianto. He knew all of Jack’s friends would be worried.

Jazz
Jack nodded slowly before leaning out of the Doctor's hug before he had gone to get him some clothes. When the Time Lord came back with clothes for the Immortal, Jack slowly stood, not caring about his feet's discomfort to the grate floor. Walking over to the bathroom, hoping he remembered, the immortal walked into the bathroom and closed the door. Undressing and separating his wet clothes from dry clothes and blanket, Jack turned on the water to a comfortable temperature, Harkness let the water fill the tub to a decent level before getting in and let himself relax and soak. His coughing continued and wouldn't seem to leave him be as he continued to soak.

Staying in the bath for about 10 to 14 minutes, Jack soon got out of the tub and dried off before putting on some dry clothes. Once dressed the Immortal took his wet clothes, the blanket around him while walking to the spare bedroom that the Doctor mentioned. Arriving to the spare room, he set his wet clothes aside, flopping down on the bed and curling up. His coughing continued and wouldn't lighten up. Groaning, he felt miserable for what felt like the first time in his life.
__________________
Ianto had answered the phone and conversing with the Doctor, relieved with the safety of their leader. "Thank goodness. Do you know what happened to him?"

Magic
“I don’t know, I just found him sick and scared calling out my name, he was in the rain and says he doesn’t remember much of what happened after the mission, Just waking sick in the middle of nowhere.” It was clear the Doctor was quite worried “I know I shouldn’t worry so much when he cant die, but its not nice being sick and sure dying over and over must be miserable for him.” The time lord went on, he wanted Jack to be well. He knew Ianto would be worried. He wondered if he should get Jack back to Torchwood and look after him there. He didn’t want Ianto and the others being too worried and he knew he needed to get Jack somewhere safe.

“Anyways, I should go and finish this soup.” He knew Jack was miserable and he could hear him coughing.
“Yeah I really should go make sure he’s ok, he seemed miserable.” He was starting on the soup as he spoke on the phone and he was looking for medicine. He made sure that the soup wasn’t too heavy as he didn’t want to make Jack throw up. He wished he could make him feel better.

[Magic223]

Jazz
"That would explain the no show. We have been trying to look for him for sometime. We are just glad that he is in good hands. I will let you go then." Ianto didnt want to distract the Time Lord from caring forJack while the immortal was sick."take care Doctor. Say hello to Jack for us." And with that, Ianto hung up and left Jack in the Doctor's capable hands.
_____________________
Jack hadn't fallen asleep for it was something his body didnt want to so yet. Jack was very much tired. However the Immortal was feeling too miserable to go to sleep. He didnt know why he felt miserable still. He thought that now he was with the Time Lord that he wouldn't feel miserable like he did but just feel sick. However unknown to the immortal there was something else that plagued his mind.Curled in the blanket that he was given, Jack Harkness had his eyes closed and hoping that soon he would sleep so he would have the higher chance of ridding himself of this sickness.

Magic

The Doctor carried on making the soup, he hoped been cared for would make Jack feel a little better. Once the soup is done he gets Jack some tea and medicine. He was worried about him, he wondered what had happened to Jack for him to be in this state. Either was the time lord was going to take good care of his sick friend.
Walking into the room he headed over to the bed, he put the soup and tea on the nightstand. He gently puts a hand on Jacks back.
“Hey are you awake?” he asked softly. He didn’t want to wake his friend if he had fallen asleep, though he knew it would be good for Jack to get food in his stomach. The time lord knew he might have to do something out of the normal and lay there with Jack, he knew the man was sick and in need of comfort.

The Doctor stroked Jack’s hair a little “I know you are miserable, But I will make sure you get well again,” he didn’t like it when his friends were miserable. He found it hard to see, thought he was always willing to make things better for them.
“I brought you some tea and soup.”
He hoped Jack would relax enough after he’s had some food and tea. The Doctor knew tea always helped to relax somebody.
Jazz
Jack hadn't fallen asleep like the Doctor had thought. He was still feeling quite miserable and the it wasn't helping things any. Feeling the gentle touch of a hand on his back, he moved his head a little to see that the Doctor was right there. Jack was also secretly enjoying the touch. He nodded as he slowly sat up, making sure that the blanket was around him and wouldn't slide off. "I'll try the soup first..."

Magic

The Doctor looked at him “I talked to Ianto for you, he and the others have been worried, I told him you are safe,” he smiled softly and passes him the bowl “Don’t force it if you can’t manage , its light but I don’t want you throwing up if can be helped, though sometimes it can’t I just don’t want you feeling more miserable.”
He knew that Jack was feeling quite miserable.
The Doctor smiled and passed him the bowel careful. “You’ll feel better soon.”

Jack was his good friend. He was looking at Jack, The Doctor was running his hands threw his hair, he had never been like this with Jack, but he knew he was sick and needed to give him comfort, he knew Jack liked the touch, he was sure that was helping him a lot right now as well. He smiled and sits by him.
“Couldn’t sleep I guess?” he asked him.
Jazz
Nodding slowly, Jack took the bowl and was taking his time eating what he could of the soup. "Alright...As long as they know Im fine, I am fine. But no. I couldn't sleep. I feel too sick to sleep." Jack told the Time Lord. Not admitting it, but the Immortal was clearly enjoying the hand that was running through his hair. It was a bit odd for the Doctor to do something like this, but his guess was that it was because Jack was feeling extremely ill.

About finishing half the bowl, Jack gave it to the Time Lord before him. "Tea please...not done with the soup but Ill see what my body say with eating half a bowl of soup..."

Magic
The Doctor looked at him, he felt sorry for Jack and wished that he could do more to make Jack feel better.
“Yeah think they have been looking for you, I figured they would have been and would want to know where you were.”
He knew that he couldn’t have left them wondering. He wasn’t sure if any of them even knew that Jack couldn’t die.

He smiled softly, Jack didn’t have to say, The Doctor could see that Jack liked him stroking his hair. The time lord smiled rather softly, he takes the bowl and passes him the tea. “Its alright no rush Jack,” he says calmly “Last time it was you looking after me, never thought be the other way around, But I was so sick that last time.” He smiled “Suppose this is repaying that kindness though I’d look after you even if that hadn’t happened.”
Jazz
Jack took the cup of the tea and with a smile small, not feeling so miserable since the Time Lord was taking care of him. It was odd to have changed roles. "I remember. It is a bit odd." He takes a sip of the tea. "So what were you doing before you found me?" Harkness asked, hoping he didnt pull the Doctor away from something that would have been fun most likely. He took another sip of the tea.

Magic
The Doctor looked at him “Yeah, guess getting wet and been out in middle of nowhere made it easier to get sick.”
He also did wonder if Jack had been overdoing it, he wasn’t sure how much sleep Jack normally ever got. He did get rather worried about that when he thought about it.

“Travelling alone, Don’t worry I didn’t mind coming to find you, I wouldn’t have just left you there when you needed me, I was quite lonely as well, Didn’t think you would want to travel with me again or anything, But have been completely alone.” He was almost in tears, He tried to pull himself together again.
“So sorry, didn’t mean to um,” few tears dropped down his cheeks anyways. He missed Rose and missed having his friends by his side.
Jazz
Jack tilted his head a little as he saw his friend tearing up. It was very unusual to see the Doctor this emotional. Lifting his hand, the immortal used the palm of his hand to wiped the wipe the saddened Time Lord. "It's alright, Doctor. I'll talk to them about it. It would be nice to see the universe again." Jack said before he began coughing, making sure to turn away to cough so the Doctor wasn't in the line of fire.

Magic
The Doctor was crying, he wiped away his tears “I’m sorry, I’m so sorry.” He kept apologizing over and over. He wasn’t used to even crying that much in front of his friends. He was glad for Jacks company, even if the man was quite sick.
He knew that he needed to help make his friend feel better. He noticed Jack had began coughing and he rubbed his back.

“You will be alright.” The Doctor told him. He wished he could make Jack better right now, but he knew he couldn’t.
But either way he would do his best to make Jack better “Oh you don’t need to, I couldn’t pull you away from your work and friends like that…,”
Jazz
Shaking his head before drinking a little bit more of his tea, Jack looked back to the Doctor. "Its okay. Thats why I would want to talk to them about it. I haven't seen you in so long. I am sure we have quite a bit of catching up to do. But no need to apologize for crying. It happens."

The immortal took a drink of the tea before handing it to the Doctor before leaning over to the Doctor, his head on the Time Lord's shoulder. His stomach seemed to be accepting the soup that the Doctor made. Jack wasn't feeling as miserable as he did before. However he still felt the usual affects of illness.
Magic
The Doctor looked at him “Yes it has been awhile.. don’t know how long its been for me, I have been travelling and time is different in the TARDIS.” He really did want time to catch up with Jack once he was feeling better.
He looked at him “I’m not used to crying in front of you I guess. I just miss Rose, and miss having you or any of my friends to travel with,”

He looked at him and takes the cup. “How are you holding up, want the rest or your soup or should I put it in fridge for you.”
He knew he could always heat it up later. He was stroking Jack’s dark brown hair and he was thinking a bit.
Jazz
Smiling a little, Jack felt his hair being messed with and again, enjoying it. closing his eyes, the immortal tried to get a nap in. However this wouldn't take long for how exhausted Jack was in the first place, not even getting a chance to answer the Doctor's question. Jack Harkness did cough a bit here and there but the tea seemed to do it's things.

Magic
Seeing Jack looked like he would fall asleep, The Doctor took the bowl and cup to the kitchen. He stored the rest of the soup in the fridge and then went back to Jack and hugged him. He continued to stroke his hair, he could see it was helping to relax Jack. He knew that Jack was quite exhausted and he closed his eyes as well.
The time lord soon found himself relaxed and asleep.

When he woke up, he looked around and sighed a bit, he looked over at Jack hoping that he was getting a good rest, he was blushing that he had even fallen asleep laying next to Jack but he had gotten sleepy and comfortable.
He also had been trying to keep Jack comforted as well.
Jazz
Waking up a few minutes or so after the time Lord had woken up, Jack felt like he had slept decently. The sleep wasnt exactly helping but glad none the less that he had gotten some sleep. Noticing that the Doctor was laying next to him. His guess that he had fallen asleep here to make sure the immortal was cared for. Jack smiled when he noticed the Doctor's blush. "I'm guessing you fell asleep while keeping me company Doctor?"

Magic
The Doctor smiled and looked at him “Yeah I got comfortable and relaxed I guess.” He looked at Jack still blushing, he was glad that Jack had got some sleep. He had been worried about the fact that Jack was struggling to sleep earlier.
“How are you feeling.?” He hopes the sleep had helped, but he knows Jack would still be quite sick, he is worried about him.

“Hope you were able to sleep well, You fell asleep not long after you finished your tea, was hoping it would help you sleep. Though I know me comforting you would have helped a bit too.” He smiled and sits up where he is.
He was stretching a little and then he hugged Jack again. He didn’t seem to mind comforting him when he knew he needed it.
Jazz
Jack hugged the Doctor from an odd position, really trying to refrain from letting his flirtatious side speak to the Time Lord. However that was slowly becoming more reality as this went on. "I'm feeling more rested...but over all I feel like crap still. Thank you for what you did, Doctor."
Though staying as he was and not moving away from the Doctor for a bit before having to let go, Jack thought about this and was seeing it about unnatural that he was able to be this close to the Time Lord like he was being now, being sick or not. Mentally shrugging, the immortal was going to try and enjoy the time while it was there. This is Captain Jack Harkness we are talking about here.
"I do have a feeling though that you are being so close to be to make up for lost time not being around me." Jack said with a weak sly smile. He couldnt contain it anymore. flirting was in his nature. Nothing he could do about it.

Magic
The Doctor closed his eyes, he knew Jack was likely trying to suppress his flirting. But he knew Jack and that wasn’t likely to last all.
He knew that Jack was loving being this close to him. He knew Jack had feelings for him in the past, he wasn’t sure if those feelings were still there or not. But The Doctor did care about the immortal. He had just been in love with Rose at the time, now he seemed unsure, He was liking being close to him it seemed.
He wanted to tell him to stop it, but instead a deep blush formed on his face , he cleared his throat.

“Well I know you are miserable and being close is helping, But I haven’t seen you in awhile and I haven’t had anybody to hug me in awhile either.” The Doctor went on. He was still looking at him, at least this time Jack wasn’t annoying him. He wasn’t sure why.

Jazz
Yeah....at this point you would have to give Jack some credit for trying to suppress his flirtatious mind for as long as he did. But this was Jack Harkness we are talking about. Though if you think about it, Harkness loved flirting with the Time Lord and indeed have feelings for him, though later respecting his space when he realized that the Doctor had his eyes on Rose then. Jack still liked the Doctor very much so but since Rose was gone and a new regeneration, the Captain didnt know if the Doctor felt that way for him or not. That was now the one thing Jack was curious but scared of knowing.

"Oh yeah. I kinda forgot. Probably being alone you hug deprived. Here. I'll fix that." And without much of a warning, Harkness sat up long enough to wrap his arms around the Time Lord before him and pull him down to the bed, giving him a long hug. The Doctor was free to release himself from the immortal a grasp if he wished but Jack was kinda being onory now (guess is from the illness) and was trying to make up for the time they were apart.
Magic
The Doctor closed his eyes, he didn’t seem to be bothered like he would have in past. He seemed to be liking the closeness. He was looking into Jack’s eyes, It felt nice to be able to have somebody hugging him again, he was smiling a bit. He wondered if he was starting to have feelings for Jack, or had he just been alone too long.
He wanted to just stay in Jack’s arms forever, he was liking it, He couldn’t seem to want to pull away.

“For somebody who is sick, surprise you still have that in you, Yet you are always the same I suppose,” The Doctor chuckled a bit and hugged him more. “Though I have not had anybody to hug me in awhile that’s true.”
He was hoping he wouldn’t cry again. He looked at Jack. He knew Jack would often got lonely. He hoped Jack wasn’t already with anybody as he didn’t want to create problems.

Jazz
Still hugging him, Jack listened and chuckled. Having to let the Doctor go because he began coughing from the laughter. Soon when his coughing subsided, he looked over to the male before him. "You obviously doubt me, even when I am sick. Mind if I have some more soup?" Harkness asked the Time Lord.

MAgic
The Doctor smiled, he did feel a little guilty that he had made Jack laugh so hard that he was coughing. He laughed “Thought you would maybe not have the energy to flirt, guess wrong there aren’t I.”
He was smiling and bit and he gets up “Of course you may have some more soup,” he was glad that Jack was so far able to keep the food down. He knew Jack would have probably not eaten in a few days either so would need the food.

The Doctor gets up and goes to the kitchen to get him some food. He knew that Jack would be needing a lot of care.
The time lord was ready to give it, Jack had been so good to him. He never really felt like he had ever made the up to Jack. “Here,” he brings him some soup.

[Magic223]

Jazz
Jack nodded, staying on the bed as he waited for the Doctor to return. As he waited, the immortal started spacing off. Trying to think back on what happened to him. How he ended up in the middle of no where, how he ended up sick like he did, and who could have done this to him.

Closing his eyes while he was laying on the bed, Jack took a deep breath. Looking through his memories, the immortal was running through what had happened the day before all this happened. Sadly, there was no success. When the Time Lord returned, he sat up slowly and took the bowl and began to eat.

Magic

The Doctor sits by Jack again, he wondered how Jack had gotten sick as well, he knew Jack was hardly sick. He was still going to look after Jack the best he could. He didn’t want anything to get worse with Jack.
He kept a bucket by the bed, even if Jack was doing ok with food he left it there encase it was needed. He though did hope Jack wouldn’t need it.

“We need to go somewhere fun when you are better,” The Doctor said. He was smiling a bit, he loved travelling with Jack as well. He was worried about him still, he knew even if anything went wrong that Jack would just revive.
He was feeling sorry for Jack being so ill, he didn’t wish this on his friend. The Time Lord almost wished he was ill and not Jack.

Going through the last of the soup, and setting it aside, Harkness rose as eye brow when the Doctor mentioned about doing something fun. "You and I have many definitions of fun, Doctor. You have elaborate on that term a little more." He laughed. Though only being truthful. To these two men, there were many meanings to the word, fun. Some of them the two could agree with and go do.

Magic
“Ohh You know travelling, I know you like that, you often did tell me you missed it,” The Doctor was also lonely, he wanted somebody to travel the stars with, he was alone and it was miserable, He wrapped his arm around Jack and looked into his eyes. He seemed to be enjoying hugging Jack. “Though suppose you have other definitions of fun,” He was more meaning in regards to travelling with that word right now.
He sure of his feelings yet, He gets up again and comes back with a thermometer though. He really needs to check Jacks temperature; He knows it will be miserable for Jack if it gets high. He puts the thermometer in Jacks mouth.

Jazz
A smile appeared on Jack's lips, his eyes looking down to the bowl on his lap when the Doctor had said about Harkness telling the Time Lord that he missed travelling. He looked into the eyes of the Doctor when he had wrapped his arms around the immortal. He was about to speak his mind about definitions of fun when decided to keep his mouth shut. Before he could really answer, he noticed the man before him had left real quick and comes back with a thermometer. Jack rose his eyebrow as if silently saying 'Really? Why?' But then he remembered that he was sick still. He opened his mouth willingly and let the thermometer go under his tongue. The Thermometer read 110 degrees F though Jack didnt show that he was that sick. When the Doctor took it out of his mouth, Harkness decided to speak. "Well you know I have some of the same definitions of fun as you do. But I also have my other definitions of fun."

Magic
The Doctor could tell that Jack wasn’t really remembering he was sick, though he supposed that was a good thing in ways, as Jack would not be noticing how miserable he was as much “Ah 110 degrees F, Maybe should get you some medicine or a wash cloth, know you cant die, But that fever will get uncomfortable if it gets higher,” he was looking at Jack. He puts the thermometer aside for now.
“Yes I know that Jack,” he was looking at him. He seemed pleased Jack was happy for now. He hugged him again.
“Doesn’t look like you are paying attention that you are sick anymore.” He gets him water and puts it by the bed encase he needs it.
Jazz
Jack nodded, knowing that he would have to be careful now that he knew what his temperature was. Though now that the Doctor said something about it, Jack was been truly not noticing that he had been sick. That was okay though for he just let it be. "Thanks for the note. i wanted to keep forgetting so it wouldn't be an issue." He told the Time Lord with some sarcasm. He couldn't help it though.
Magic
The Doctor was looking at him “Sorry to bring it up, Just don’t want you feeling worse later.” He was laying by him and wanted to make him feel better. He snuggled up to his friend and was looking into his eyes.
“I know your probably trying to distract yourself from feeling miserable, But if you do ignore it too much it will be far more miserable later.”
He wasn’t sure Jack would be able to ignore it then. He gets him the water and passes him some medicine.
“Here should help.” He knew he needed to give him medicine to try and ease some of his symptoms. He noticed Jack wasn’t coughing badly right at the moment.

Jazz
Jack knew he was right. If he was to ignore it for so long than he would only make his sickness last longer and would never get better. Setting the bowl on the nightstand, the immortal and laid down, surprised that the doctor laid down next to him on the bed and snuggled to him. He snuggled up to the Doctor, though he was taller than the Time Lord, he rested his chest on him and closed his eyes. Short lived though when he had to sit and be given some medicine. He took it and had drunk the water before he gave the cup back to the Doctor. Laying down, Jack had snuggled up to the Doctor once again and closed his eyes.

Magic

The Doctor only wished he could do more, even his skills only went so far, He smiled when Jack closed his eyes, the time lord just stroked his hair. He was glad when Jack had taken medicine. He hoped Jack would get more sleep as he knew it would help him recover. The Doctor held him and just closed his eyes again.
“Tired Jack?” he asked him. He wasn’t about to move really. He knew that Jack was comfortable so this time he was going to stay still, at least until Jack wanted something. The Time lord hadn’t even got himself food yet.
Jazz
Jack nodded his head lazily while his head was still on the Doctor's chest. He was indeed tired and this must have been the limit he was going to be at for a while till he got better. "If you need to go do something, I'll be fine on my own. I dont need supervision." Jack said with a small smile on his lips.

Magic
The Doctor smiled and looked at him, “I’ll be fine, You look too comfortable there for me to move.” He was calm seeming. Even if he had things to do he would put them off till later as Jack seemed very comfortable where he was. The Doctor didn’t have it in him to move when Jack was comfortable and getting tired where he was resting.
“Just sleep if you need Jack.” He was sure that If he too got comfortable that he would fall asleep.
Jazz
"I will admit that i am but if you need to go do something, I am fine with that." Harkness told the Time Lord that he was snuggling with. But it seemed that the Doctor would be hell bent on just laying there and letting him be comfortable. Jack took a deep breath, letting himself relax.
There was a moments silence. A comfortable silence. Within those moments Jack had been thinking. "I'm surprised, Doctor." He started off to break the silence. "You're actually staying in one spot for so long."
Magic

“That’s good if you are comfortable, Its hard to get comfortable when you are not feeling well, so I am fine not moving.” He was smiling at him, He liked it that Jack was relaxed, he knew that would be better than he being miserable and uncomfortable. He needed to help Jack get well and if staying still so he could relax helped, he didn’t mind. He looked at Jack “Yeah I know usually I don’t but for an ill friend its not so much of a big deal, I won’t die of boredom.” He was always willing to do anything for his friends really.
He stroked Jacks hair. “Plus you had laid there comforting me last time, when I was very ill and crying , even if I was blushing you had lain that close without asking if It was ok then.” He asked. He smiled more.

Jack nodded slowly, and smiled. That he remembered well and then, he trying to do what was right and make him comfortable then. "It was because you were being stubborn and denying that you needed comfort when you were trying to get me to comfort you." He said slowly as he felt the Time Lord's fingers through his hair.
Harkness slowly became limp and was breathing easy and even, seeming to have fallen asleep not soon after.

Magic
The Doctor just smiled seeing Jack had fallen asleep when they were talking, he tucked the blankets around him more, he continued to run his fingers through Jacks hair, he knew Jack liked it, he closed his eyes relaxing and he hummed softly.
“Just rest Jack.” He whispered , he knew that he would just fall asleep comforting Jack again. The Time Lord hardly relaxed and lazed around like this either.
But he knew that he would have to relax if he was looking after Jack, he closed his eyes and slept.

3 days later...
Captain Jack Harkness had been sick inside the TARDIS and with the Doctor for the remainder of his time being sick. It was a steady progress but all had been going well with Jack since he had been in the Time Lord's care. His temperature broken and recovering, the immortal had been coughing less, eating more, and able to get out of bed, but having to stay in the TARDIS. There were times he had thrown up, coughed to the point of throwing up, or just felt terrible because of said sickness but it all went away with time.
The funny thing about this was that not only did Jack enjoy the Doctor's company, but noticed how he had been feeling toward him while he was sick. Having no idea if it had been a sickness thing but Harkness almost wanted to question the Doctor for being so close. He knew one reason. But there must have been another that Jack wasn't seeing. He had just left it alone. let the answers come to him and see what to with said answers from there.
Waking up at one point in the TARDIS, Jack Harkness had slept in his bed rather peacefully, stretching while still laying down. Looking around a bit, Harkness almost wanted to go back to bed, feeling as if he didnt get enough sleep.

Magic
The Doctor had worried a lot over that time , especially the times the Jack had been feeling so bad that he was throwing up, he though had not slept and would just watch over him to make sure nothing went wrong and he would bring him water and ginger ale and anything he could to make sure Jack was feeling better. He didn’t care if he had to sit there rubbing his back or holding the bucket for him, he just seemed to be really caring towards Jack during that time. He knew he was staring to get feelings for Jack though, he had decided to not talk about it when Jack was sick. He was glad when Jack had started to feel better, it had meant he was more relaxed. Though he had kept a close eye on the immortal. He knew he was worrying too much, but Jack was his friend and he hated to see him suffering.

On the morning of the third day the Time Lord was sleeping, he had his head under the covers, He had only barely just got around to sleeping since Jack was recovering. When he did finally wake up that day he stretched and looked around.
“Morning Jack.” He had no clue that when he did wake that it was nearly midday.
JAzz
Jack thought that being under the covers would be a wonderful idea, seeing as how the Doctor had been taking care of him day in and day out. The Doctor cared and Jack owed him so much for it. Now that, he was awake and just laying there, Jack noticed the body next to him move to see the Doctor that had poked his head out from under the blanket. "Morning Doctor. Manage to get any decent sleep?" He asked, feeling quite guilty for having the Doctor worry so much as he did. Hopefully he could possibly encourage the Time Lord to get some more sleep.

Magic
The Doctor was looking at him, he seemed a bit half asleep “Mmm yeah.” He looked at him and blushed a little. He really needed to tell him. He was comfortable under all the blankets, he knew Jack would worry if he missed too much more sleep, but he had been unable to help it as he really cared about Jack.
He smiled a bit, at least he had gotten some sleep which was better than the last few days. He lay his head on Jack’s chest. He felt too lazy to move right this moment. “Jack… I need to tell you… something,” He was blushing. “I think I love you.”

Jazz
Jack could understand the Doctor's laziness with the fact of the 3 day without much or any sleep at all. Glancing down to see the Doctor resting his head on the Imortal's chest. He smiled softly, an arm rest softly on his back and rubbed the Time Lord's back. When the Doctor spoke, jack was honestly curious as to what the Doctor wanted to tell him. However there was one thing that Jack hadnt expected.
And what had been said now was the one thing he would never expect. This indeed made the immortal blush. Surprised of what the Doctor actually said. His eyes looking at the Doctor with astonishment, Jack was speechless for all he could do to respond was hug the Doctor tightly before he finally found his voice. "I love you Doctor. I have always loved you..."
Magic
The Doctor smiled and looked at him. He chuckled softly “Wow I made Jack Harkness blush and go speechless.” He teased, He felt comforted with Jack rubbing his back. He looked pleased that Jack still loved him.
“I was hoping you still loved me,” He leaned forward and kissed him, He closed his eyes. He had been wanting to do that for days.
He didn’t seem to have to even think about it.

Jazz
Harkness smiled managed to chuckle when the Doctor teased him. What made his smile grow was the comment the Doctor said with the addition of a kiss. His eyes closed as he felt the sweet bliss when they kissed that he had never felt before when he had kissed anyone else. It was the same sweet that occurred when he kissed the Doctor back on the game station while in his ninth incarnation. But back then, he wouldn't mention it then because of the circumstances. Jack wrapped his arm around the Time Lords waist, sliding the man up so they wouldn't be in an awkward position. Breaking the kiss between them, Jack opened his eyes slowly, looking into the eyes of the Time Lord he come to love and waited for all this time. "I love you."

Magic

The Doctor was looking at him. He seemed very relaxed. He sometimes liked a chance to relax when he was tired and had too much going on. The Doctor snuggled with Jack and kissed him, when they pulled back he was blushing. This time he had enjoyed the kiss, last time back on the game station he had been unsure and felt akward, but this time, he was ok with it. He had his arms around Jack. He finally felt like he wasn’t going to be lonely. He had been crying a bit in his sleep last night though.
“Love you too,” he held onto him closing eyes. Man he was tired.

Jazz

Smiling, Jack touched his forehead to the Time Lord's, smiling as he closed his eyes again for a moment. "Try and get some sleep Doctor. I'm gonna go take a bath." Jack told him before kissing his forehead before sadly separating himself from the Doctor. He didn't want to but he felt like the bath would do him loads of good since he was bed ridden 3 days ago. Grabbing some clothes and going to the bathroom and starts up the shower. He makes sure that the water is hot, wanting to relax his body and muscles from the stress of being sick. Stripping off his clothes and getting into the shower. Standing there, Jack sighs with relief as he felt the hot water hit his body and relax him. Staying in the shower for about an hour, Jack had washed up, got out, dried off and got dressed.
The Doctor was looking at him. He knew he was tired. The Time Lord was exhausted in fact. Looking after Jack the way he had without sleeping much had taken its toll on the time lord. But looking after Jack had been worth it. He knew that Jack would have been more miserable without his care and could have been sick much longer.
He didn't want Jack to be feeling miserable. It was his pleasure to do anything he could to make Jack feel better. He would have felt guilty if he had left Jack on his own when he was ill.

"I... alright." He had been about to protest about getting some sleep. He really didn't want to all that much. He just knew that he needed it. He was very tired.
After Jack had left for a bath the time lord was deeply asleep curled up in the blankets. The Doctor really needed to catch up on his sleep, He didn't want to end up unwell.

Jack smiled when he saw the Doctor was deeply asleep within the blankets that were on the bed. Leaving the Doctor to sleep, Jack decided to make something to eat for the two of them. It wouldn't be much but he was sure that the Time Lord would be hungry once he woke up. So he decided to make some Pizza. Believe it or not, Harkness knew how to cook. And so that was what he was going to do. He spent a few hours in the kitchen cooking and prepping to make it.

Magic
The Doctor was looking very tired as he slept. He seemed very tired and needed to catch up in his sleep. When he did wake, he was sure he smelt food. He wanted to eat something as he was rather hungry .He needed some food. “Ah what are you making?” he smiled when he saw Jack in the kitchen. He knew he would need more sleep later.
He wished that he wasn’t so tired, he knew it was his fault for not getting the sleep he needed.

Jazz
Jack seemed to be putting toppings on the pizza and not paying attention till he heard a familiar voice. Smiling, Harkness glanced his gaze to the doctor. "Pizza. I thought I would make something for the both of us. How did you sleep?" He asked, finishing up the last of the toppings.

CURRENT POST;

The Doctor was looking at him, he smiled a bit and hugged him from behind. It felt good to have had more sleep. He knew he was nowhere near the amount of sleep he needed to catch up on, but for now he was fine. He figured he would just have to make sure he slept through tonight. He knew he sometimes was no good at getting a good nights rest due to the nightmares he had.
"Ah enough for now, But I still need alot more sleep," He explained. "And I am hungry Pizza sounds good."

[Jazz]

Harkness chuckled when the Doctor randomly popped off that he was hungry. "I am sure you will get more sleep tonight. Later you mind if we visit Torchwood? I'm sure they will be happy to see us both." Harkness asked, taking the pan and putting it in the oven while setting a timer.

[Magic223]

The Doctor was looking at him "Ah of course, I was thinking that, let them know you are well and so we can let them know about the traveling ." He kissed Jack and then smiled. He was so pleased to finally have time to tell Jack how he felt. He didn't feel like he would be lonely anymore.
"Yeah I will get more sleep tonight, But at least I am not a zombie now." he laughed.
He was so pleased to be in Jack's company really.

[Jazz]

"Okay. Wanna come lay in bed with me again tonight?" He asked the Doctor. Jack wouldn't really admit it but he had less nightmares when the Doctor slept next to him. Jack usually had nightmares from his past. Since the Time Lord slept with him a few years ago, his nightmares seemed to have vanished. Jack kissed the Doctor in return. "I'm sure that they won't mind me traveling for a while."

[Magic223]

The Doctor was smiling, he looked at him and pulled him closer into a soft kiss. He usually had nightmares too and did feel calmer snuggled up with Jack at night. He didn't know that Jack ever had nightmares though.
He knew Jack would like the company of somebody laying with him at night. He looked into his eyes "Of course Jack," He hugged him "I actually get more sleep when you ate there by me, well the times I did get sleep, since wasn't so much towards the end with all my worrying."
His stomach growled again, he wondered if the pizza was ready. "Ah I am sure they can handle themselves like last time." he grinned.

[Jazz]

Jack smiled, allowing the Doctor to pull him closer, softly kissing the Time Lord's lips. Jack smiled, glad that the Doctor wanted to sleep with him tonight. Wrapping his arms around his waist. "You need to be more careful. I understand you were worrying, but you can always think of yourself as well." Harkness kissed the Doctor's forehead though hearing his stomach growling. Looking back to look at the timer, there was still some time left. "I am sure they will."

[Magic223]

The Doctor was looking at him , He felt glad that he had admitted his feelings for Jack, everything seemed right.
“Ah you know I always find it hard to worry about myself. Helping others is what I do… Ohh Rose used to tell me off for it so much, so did most of my companions. Ohh and trying to have the I am fine conversation with Donna never worked. She was so furious with me when I ended up passing out from exhaustion and getting sick.”
The Doctor knew sometimes his companions worried alot about him, Though with Donna he never could win an argument that easily.

[Jazz]

"So I guess it is my turn to pick up where they left off?" Jack asked before a big smile formed. He was glad that he too could admit his feelings. He would agree that everything felt natural and right. He wanted it to last and hope that no matter how old they were or how long they had been together, they would always be together through it all.

[Magic223]

"Yeah suppose, " The Time lord chuckled. Sometimes his friends were rather scary when they were mad. He snuggled into Jack's arms and smiled looking at him. He loved Jack a lot.He wondered how stuborn Jack would be in an argument like that. He knew Donna had been very stuborn. He also knew his friends were always the ones to stop him from going too far.
He did like having people to care about him. It wasn't often that he was that lucky. It made him miserable to be alone. He was glad that Jack was there for him.

[Jazz]

Jack laughed at that answer, soon bringing the Doctor closer to him, resting his head on the Doctor's head. He too was that they were together. Harkness loved the Doctor, but wasn't too concerned as to how stubborn he could get when he would get into an argument with the Doctor. He would rather wait till that time came.

After being in each others embrace in a comfortable silence, Jack heard the timer go off. Time seemed to sneak away while they were enjoying each others silence that it felt too soon. But Jack let go of the Time Lord to check on the pizza.

[Magic223]

The Doctor was enjoying spending this time with Jack. he was very calm now. He hugged Jack closely and snuggled. He hoped that him and Jack would be happy for a long time and wouldn't have to argue much.
"So to torchwood after lunch?" he was glad when he saw his lunch was ready. At least he thought it was lunch. Time was sometimes hard to tell in the TARDIS. All he knew was that he was hungry.

[Jazz]

Jack opened the oven to pull out the pan of pizza that had many toppings like cheese, pepperoni, meat, and veggies. Jack felt rather proud of his pizza making skills as he set the pizza on the stove top to chill and turned off the oven. "Yeah. Sounds like a plan. Maybe we can share with them of whats left?"

[Magic223]

The Doctor was smiling " Ah it looks good Jack," he was smiling. He looked at him "Yeah guess we could, if we don't eat it all." he chuckled a bit. He knew he was rather hungry. After they had some pizza the Doctor went over and started to fly the TARDIS to torchwood.
"Ah well here we are," he was still finishing off one bit of pizza. He seemed to be enjoying it. The Doctor was having a good time been able to spend time with Jack, he opened the doors of the TARDIS and looked around.

[Jazz]

Jack grabbed a pizza cutter from a drawer it was put in and started cutting the pizza into slices before the Doctor went off the the control room to fly the TARDIS to Torchwood. Eating a slice, Jack put the Pizza on a plate and walked to the control room. When the TARDIS landed, Jack had finished his slice of pizza, offering the Time Lord another slice before the immortal walked to the doors. "Come on, Doctor!"

[Magic223]

The Doctor chuckled and takes another piece "Alright because its so good." He laughed. He eats it and opened the doors looking around. He wondered if Torchwood would be ok with Jack and him together.
He was still smiling a bit.
"Allons-y!!" He said looking at Jack, he seemed ready to go.

[Jazz]

Jack followed the Doctor out of the TARDIS before taking the lead and walking to the entrance of the Torchwood base. Walking in, and going into the base, Harkness looked around and smiled, as if glad to be home. "It's good to be home." Jack looked over to the Doctor.

[Magic223]

The Doctor was smiling as he walked out "Ohh I bet it is." He was looking around. He knew Jack's friends would be pleased to see him back and well. He headed into the base with them.
"So where would they be?" he asked. He wondered if they were around, he also wondered where. He figured they all would be working on different things. He hummed a bit seeming calm.
