sarkywoman: My Smile (Jack/Ten) [PG]
Title: My Smile
Author: Sarkywoman
Challenge: Wide Open Grin
Rating: PG
Spoilers/warnings: Um... nothing, really. Sex is there, but not explicit at all, really. Oh, fluff warning! This is so fluffy you may puke!
Summary: After my non-con nasty for the last challenge, I thought a spot of cutesy fluff would balance it out. Cue easily-resolved jealousy and angst that brushes away like dust on the shoulder.
The Doctor was sitting in a tea-stained armchair in a cluttered room in the depths of the Tardis. He seemed to be sulking, so Jack left him for an hour or so then brought him a cup of tea. The Captain hovered in the doorway, watching the Doctor nibble distractedly on a digestive biscuit.
“Something the matter?” Jack ventured when the Doctor had nearly finished the whole packet without once looking at him.
The Time Lord sighed and turned brown eyes full of pain up to Jack’s face. “You don’t have to stay, you know. I understand I’m not the easiest person to live with.”
Jack racked his memories of the last few days, trying to recall an instance that he’d been less than adoring of the Doctor and the life they were now leading together. There had been no traumatic alien encounters, no recent arguments, nothing he could think of that would make the Doctor think Jack was less than deliriously happy with him in the Tardis. The Time Lord had been a bit quiet on Morsnok 5, their last destination, but this was completely out of the blue.
He walked over and took the cool tea from the Doctor, then held the alien hands in his. “What brought this on?” he asked, concerned.
“I just thought you might be happier with someone else.”
Jack’s heart sank. “You want me to go.” Oh well, he’d had a few years of heaven.
“No, I don’t, but I know you’re used to more…uh…variety.”
Jack frowned, still rubbing the Doctor’s hands between his. It was futile to try and warm a Time Lord, but the need to try was human instinct. “Variety? We have weird new adventures every other day.”
“That’s not what I meant.”
If it wasn’t for the faint blush on the Doctor’s cheeks, Jack would have remained clueless. But the Time Lord’s shyness immediately gave him a hint. The man could face armies of Daleks and Cybermen without hesitation, but admitting he had a sex drive, that he and Jack were having intimate relations, that was somewhere the Doctor could not go without an attack of nerves. Jack thought it was cute, but it might be a problem if they wanted to have a frank discussion as one adult to another.
“You think I want to expand my sexual horizons?” The Doctor nodded and Jack laughed. “Been there, done that again and again. I’m more than ready for the excitement of monogamy.”
“For how long? When should I prepared myself for you to leave? When will you get bored of bedding the last Time Lord?”
Jack raised a hand to halt the onslaught of desperate questions. “You see now, this is where I start to get offended. You clearly don’t think much of me or my feelings for you if you think I’d leave you for a temporary sexual thrill.”
The Doctor tried to pull his hands away, but Jack gripped them tightly. “I’m sorry, Jack. I’m saying it all wrong. I know you love me and I love you. That’s why I want you to be happy, even if it means losing you to someone else.”
Jack watched him carefully. “What brought this on?” The Doctor looked away so Jack tugged gently on his hands, making him stand close. “Come on, what did I do?”
“If you hadn’t been with me, you would have gone with her, wouldn’t you?”
The Doctor’s quiet question jolted Jack’s memory back to a lovely, petite woman with red hair that they had met on Morsnok 5. She was beautiful and friendly and had they met under different circumstances a few years ago, Jack would probably have been in her bed within hours. But he was with the Doctor, so he limited himself to flirting with her. A little bit of playful conversation and subtle physical contact never hurt anyone. Well… except the Doctor, apparently.
Jack pulled him into a hug, sighing against the Time Lord’s neck. “You know it doesn’t mean anything when I chat people up. It’s how I greet people.”
“You gave her my smile,” the Doctor mumbled against him. “I’ve never seen you smile like that at anyone but me.”
“Are you sure?” Jack asked with a frown. “I didn’t like her that much.”
“Of course I’m sure,” muttered the Doctor irritably. “The room lights up with that smile.”
Jack rubbed his lover’s back for a while then stepped away, still holding his hand. “Come on.”
The Doctor followed, dragging his feet. “Where are we going?”
“To bed. I’m going to show you what really makes me happy, since you seem to have doubts.”
*
“I love you so much, Jack Harkness.”
Blissed out, Jack just smiled up at the Doctor as he relaxed onto the Time Lord’s body. He was still shaking from the last orgasm.
“That’s it, that’s my smile,” the Doctor murmured, stroking a hand over Jack’s cheek. Jack kept his expression in place, memorising the feel of his facial muscles so he could bring this smile out for the Doctor as often as necessary. Then he realised when he’d felt like this today.
“She said I was lucky to have you.”
“Hmm?”
“Tila, on Morsnok 5. I told her I was taken and she said I was lucky to have you. She asked if you made me happy. That’s why I smiled. It was nothing to do with her. It was for you. Just not in your direction.”
The Doctor grinned happily and Jack couldn’t help kissing him. “That smile can be mine,” he whispered, selfishly claiming the Doctor’s megawatt grin for his own.
The Doctor laughed. “Don’t be silly Jack.” He closed his eyes and lay back. “All my smiles are for you.”

I adored this part:
