Pairing: Jack/Tosh friendship
Rating: K+
Spoilers: Mild for Captain Jack Harkness


Tosh's grandfather's birthday is forgotten. Instead she spends the night sitting with Jack. They sit side by side on the couch. She can't bring herself to break the silence until he's ready. After about an hour he reaches out, his hand finds hers and holds on.

"I never thought of him as a person before. Just a name to use."

There's nothing she can say that hasn't already been said. Instead she reaches up and guides his head down onto her lap, letting the fingers of one hand entwine with his while the other strokes softly through his hair.
