He's just more flexible when it comes to dancing

[more_flexible]

Jack found the package addressed to him and scurried off to his room to open it. He wasn't used to getting gifts. In fact, he hadn't gotten one since...well, there was Christmas, but he hadn't been given anything since Jane baked him a pie all his own.

He unwrapped it carefully and poured over the records and just stared at the player for a long time. It was surreal, this thing that really wasn't anything spectacular and yet he was so happy he couldn't stop smiling. After a long time of just exploring it, he took an LP out of it's cover and laid it on the turntable. A few cranks of the handle and it began to spin, Moonlight Serenade spilling out his door and down the stairs.

Dark eyes flashed upwards, and he looked at Jack. "I want to stay. But if Ace comes, I want you to help her." Bloody hell, he felt like he was giving orders. "You know?"

"If she needs me, I'll leave and go to her bed. That's our deal," he replied. "But holding you all night again sounds brilliant."

The Doctor gave the puppy one final scritch and then stood up, walking over to Jack. "That sounds just right," he said, and kissed his cheek. "I've got to talk to him soon, Jack, I can't keep on like this."

It felt like using Jack, was what it felt like, using him for warmth and someone safe to touch him in the coldness of the ache. It made him feel horrible to do it.

"No. You really can't," he agreed without judgment, wrapping his arm around the Doctor's shoulders. If he had known what the Doctor was thinking, he'd have agreed with that, too...it didn't mean he wouldn't do it, though.

"I'm a shit, Jack," he said, and settled them down on the bed. "And I'm sorry for using you. I don't know what else to do that'll keep me from being...like that again." They both knew what he meant. Who he meant.

Christ, it was a day for apologies.

"Yeah, sometimes you are," he nodded as he laid down and stretched out. "But it'll get better and I can hang on. I can...because for some stupid reason I love you."

[sortofaman.livejournal.com]

The Doctor flopped down next to him. "God, I'm buggered up right well," he agreed.

[captainjack.livejournal.com]

Jack snuck his arm in underneath just as he laid back and curled it around him. "So...what are you gonna do?"

[sortofaman.livejournal.com]

"Go and talk to him. Try and explain. In a few days." The Doctor sighed and took off his shirt, as he still had clothes on. Atalanta nosed the door open a crack and padded out. "I still have to think out what I want to say, first."

[captainjack.livejournal.com]

"Don't wait too long," he replied softly, rolling to look at him straight on. "Time isn't like it used to be for us. Right?" he asked with a hint of a smile.

[sortofaman.livejournal.com]

"No," the Doctor said, shirt hitting the floor. "I guess it isn't." He softly drew his hand up Jack's chest, then got up and put Glenn Miller back on quietly before lying back down.

"Dance with me?"

[captainjack.livejournal.com]

Jack smiled wider and rolled half on top of him. "I'd love to," he purred, leaning in to kiss him softly.

[sortofaman.livejournal.com]

"You leading or am I?" he asked, fingers moving up into Jack's hair, other hand pulling him up on top even further before they kissed.

[captainjack.livejournal.com]

"I'll lead," came the whisper before he parted his lips, tongue gliding into the Doctor's mouth.

Tonight the resistance, at least most of it, was gone, and he moaned low, the words cutting into him as he kissed back, arching up into him.

[captainjack.livejournal.com]

Jack's hands roamed freely over his bare chest, circling his nipples and tangling in the soft hair before stroking lightly over his shoulder. He didn't break the kiss for a moment, just opened wider to catch a breath around it.

He took the opportunity to breathe too, legs sliding up on either side around him, fabric clashing with the friction of more fabric. "God," he whispered, fingers moving down his back.

[captainjack.livejournal.com]

"You really feel up to dancing tonight?" he asked softly as he stroked the Doctor's cheek.

[sortofaman.livejournal.com]

"More than in days." He moved in and slowly flicked his tongue across Jack's ear. "But only if you want to."

[captainjack.livejournal.com]

"Oh...yes. Especially to this song," he grinned while shifting so he could reach down and undo his fly.

[sortofaman.livejournal.com]

His hand slid under Jack's jeans to cup his ass, eyes closing as he moved up to his hand. "I might have put the album on repeat," he murmured.

[captainjack.livejournal.com]

"Well, then. Let's dance," he replied, ass arching into the grip as he leaned down to kiss him again.

[sortofaman.livejournal.com]

Fingers squeezed firm muscle, and he kissed him back, free hand pulling his own jeans down before his hips rose and ground slow but hard against his.

[captainjack.livejournal.com]

He really didn't want to let go, but there was denim to throw out of the bed. Jack rose to his knees and slid his jeans off, then took the Doctor's as well. "There. Much better attire for dancing," he smiled.

[sortofaman.livejournal.com]

"Much." He ran his fingers down Jack's chest, over sleek muscle and down his hips, his own boxers getting in the way even.
