Three couples and a TARDIS
Prologue
Captain Jack Harkness could not help but snort when the newly regenerated Doctor asked Rose if he was ginger and if she thought he was sexy. Rose's facial expression was priceless. Jack would miss the ninth Doctor, but he could definitely see that the Tenth was going to be easy to love just as nine had been for both Rose and Jack.
The Doctor in his tenth incarnation was what his ninth self would have surely dubbed a pretty boy. Jack knew if the ninth Doctor was around, then he would have been cursing two ways to Sunday.
The new Doctor much to Jack and Rose's amusement was like a five year-old on a sugar high. He was bouncy and loud and as the Doctor had said to the Sycorax leader, he had a bit of a gob on him.
They were currently sitting in Jackie's flat eating a late Christmas dinner. Jackie had really gone and out done herself, considering the short amount of time she had to prepare such a festive feast fit for five people.
Jack and Mickey were laughing over something the Doctor had said, when Rose said "Hey look its Harriet Jones." They all turned to face the television screen, where Harriet Jones could be seen and heard trying to defend her self against and deny the rumours of her needing a break from being Priminister due to health issues. All thanks to the Doctor's meddling, after Harriet had given Torchwood the go a head to commit genocide.
The Doctor took out a pair of black glasses and put them on as he studied the television screen and listened to Harriet insisting to the press that she was in perfect health and was still fit to be Priminister.
The Doctor sighed sadly and shook his head. It was such a pity that the power Harriet had practically handed to her by his ninth self, had gone to her head. She couldn't handle the amount of power. The Doctor was so disappointed in her, and knew his ninth self would have felt the same. He was horrified, horrified that a woman he thought he could trust to have the best interests of all beings at heart, had committed genocide.
After dinner was over Jack took the Doctor to one side and asked him if he would be willing to allow Mickey to come along and travel with them. Claming it may get Mickey off Rose's back if he wasn't left behind. The Doctor at first had been reluctant but had agreed when Jack had promised he would show Mickey the ropes and make sure he didn't piss the Doctor off. Plus in this incarnation he found he had a much stronger tolerance for both Mickey and Jackie, if not by much.
