Jack woke, feeling like he had a heck of a hangover, his head was pounding and his mouth was dry and then he realized Gwen was with him. He looked down and noticed she was naked and then realised he was too. Cool, he thought, weird but cool…must have been one hell of drinking session they had gone and had, he couldn't remember a thing. He gently lifted himself from her and dressed. Gwen soon stirred and realised she was naked and in Jacks office. "Weird we must have been drunk" she thought aloud.

The team wondered why there was no CCTV footage of the last 48 hours and couldn't understand why they seemed to have lost 2 days of their lives, much to Owens dismay.

**********************

A few weeks had passed since Jack and the team had seemingly lost 2 days, a few weevils and a few aliens later, Jack was being held captive by some Aliens in a dark cell, he was chained and he was alone. The cell stank, it smelled like sewerage and grass and mud that had been wet for a long time, Jack could feel blood on himself and pain, whoa what was that pain? They had been torturing him for hours and had now returned to finish what they started.

Gwen was in the hub with Owen and Tosh, Ianto was making coffee or Gwen assumed that's what he was doing. Gwen suddenly grabbed at her chest, staggering and gasping. Owen rushed to her, "Gwen, what is it" he asked concerned.

"My ch....che....chest, Cant Breath…crushing pain."

Owen instantly knew what was wrong. "Heart attack" he thought aloud.

Sheer panic consumed Gwen's face. Owen took Gwen and placed her on to the autopsy table and prepared a syringe, he was closely followed by Ianto.

"Whoa what's that for?" Ianto asked, wide eyed as Owen turned round with a huge needle in his hands.

"Adrenaline..." Owen answered in a very matter of fact sort of way. "I have to get it in to her heart just at the right second" Owen explained, positioning himself.

Mean while Jack was being shocked by enough electricity to light up two cities.

Or so the Aliens said "This should kill him, or at least kick start or should I say stop his heart," the aliens chuckled as they took on their usual form of green and brown blobs of soft peaty earth.

Jack screamed out in sheer agony as the electricity passed through him, then it ceased, the screaming the electricity, he hung from the chains, head down, silent. He was dead.

Gwen had arrested at this point in the hub. Owen lunged at her and stabbed the needle in her, being caught slightly off guard. There was nothing. Then a second later Gwen gulped at the air as she began to come to.

"Jack..." she said instantly, almost crying his name almost questioning if he was there.

Owen and Ianto looked at each other and then at Gwen.

"Where is he?" Gwen pleaded.

"He went to look to see what had caused the rift activity," Ianto replied.

"He has been gone a while" Owen interjected thoughtfully.

Ianto, Owen and Tosh set about tracing Jack when suddenly Gwen yelled out, "The docks, warehouse, basement" That was all Tosh needed and she had located their leader.

The Team members glanced at each other.

"Go to him, he needs us" Gwen struggled.

So they turned to leave, the last thing Gwen heard was the cog door opening and feet running down the hall way.

The Hub was silent. "Gwen" a voice called out, in pain.

"Jack?" Gwen replied with a slight hint of hope in her voice.

The voice came again "Gwen help me, please, I need you."

Gwen began to panic; she knew he wasn't in the hub but where was his voice coming from. Then she remembered; she touched her ear. The comm's system, she thought, relieved and clicked it on.

"Jack?" She asked.

The reply came, "Gwen its Owen, we are almost there."

"Oh," Gwen said disappointed, "I thought Jack was on here." No response from Owen or Jack came, they must have reached him Gwen thought, but before she had time to think she passed out.

Owen and Ianto helped a weary Jack stagger to his office as Tosh checked on Gwen, asleep Tosh noted.

Ianto and Owen laid Jack gingerly on the couch, "Gwen, where's Gwen" murmured Jack.

"She's ok, she's feeling much better."

"Better?" Jack managed to question.

"She's not been so good she had... she had a heart attack" Owen stuttered.

He felt like he was giving the bad news to the family of someone who had just died.

"She begged us to find you Jack, she knew where you were" Owen explained, worry in his voice.

A pained "Oh" was all Jack could manage before he passed out from the pain.

Owen had been to have a quick check on Gwen. "Still sleeping" he reassured himself. Ianto had ordered Pizza for the others who were just tucking in when they heard Gwen calling out.

"Jack, Jack where are you I can't see you" Owen considered continuing eating his pizza as he assumed that Gwen was sleeping when he heard Jack call.

"Come on then!" they all dropped their food and made for Gwen and Jack.

Owen arrived and found Gwen was still asleep. He clicked on his comm's system and Ianto answered. "Owen, Jack is sleeping."

"I know," Owen replied.

"So is Gwen."

Just as Owen said this Gwen woke up with a start and began to get up.

"Where do you think you're going" Owen asked Gwen.

"Jack needs me didn't you hear him call?" Gwen said dumbfounded.

Looking puzzled Owen told Gwen that Jack was sleeping on the other side of the hub.

He sat Gwen down, "But he was asking me to come to him but I couldn't, and so he said".

In unison Owen and Gwen both said "Come on then!" mimicking what Jack had said.

Owen beginning to realize what was happening said to Gwen, "Say something to jack, but don't say it just think it," he explained.

Looking slightly confused Gwen closed her eyes and appeared to be thinking.

"Ianto?" Owen said in to the comm's, tell me Jacks reaction".

"Ok" Ianto replied sharply.

"Gwen, not in front of Ianto," Owen heard Jack say in the back ground with humour but huskiness in his voice.

"Err Owen, he has... an erection," Ianto chuckled.

"Thanks," Owen said and he turned off the comm.

Owen looked at Gwen; she looked very confused and a little afraid. "I think you and Jack have some kind of connection..." Owen trailed off as he was interrupted by Tosh, "You might wanna come and see this!" she yelled, "Bring Gwen and Jack too."

They all went to Tosh's desk and looked at the screen in anticipation, "Sorry Guys" she said to Jack and Gwen as Jack rubbed his hands through his hair.

He looked much more "healed" then he did when he arrived in the hub. Gwen smiled gently at him before returning to look at the screen. She pressed play and the CCTV footage began to play, showing a dark image but just clear enough to make out two people in Jack's office and they appeared to be having sex.

Owen cleared his throat when Jack and Gwen both blushed, realising it was them and said together "When was this?"

Tosh replied without taking her eyes off the screen "During the 48 hours we somehow lost. It was in a pile with some CDs which seem to have been wiped. I am assuming this one was to be wiped too," as she finished speaking the image showed a beautiful light emanate from Jack, then it emerged from him and danced and swirled in the air, blue and gold lines and shimmer before it went up high and dived in to Gwen.

"Uh Oh," Jack said. They all spun round to him.

"What's with the uh oh?" Gwen questioned him like a naughty child.

"You see Gwen, when I went to find the Doctor, my Doctor he said I can't be fixed. But hey what's to fix!" Jack said motioning himself with his hands and a grin on his face.

"And?" said Gwen impatiently.

"Oh," Jack continued, "he said that when I share the most intimate and sexual moment with someone or something I truly love then, he/she/it, delete appropriately" he said making speech marks in the air. "Would be given half of what I have." He finished looking uneasy.

"So wait a minute," Owen said.

"You Love her," Tosh awed.

"You two had sex! Get in," Owen Cheered

"We are so over" Ianto said under his breath but seemed happy rather than disappointed.

Jack looked at Gwen, and said with a hint of disbelief in his voice not sure if he believed himself, "You're my missing piece Gwen."

Gwen looked deep into Jack's eyes, tears forming in her own and with that she was gone. The cog door rolled open and she left.

Gone, Jack thought, 'Gone she didn't want that she didn't want me and she obviously didn't want us. Oh God I didn't mean for this to happen, well I wanted it to happen but not like this.'
