The Doctor didn't get his wish as he tossed and turned all night. He screamed and cried out in his sleep. Jack was awoken rudely by the Doctor flinging his arm across Jack's chest and grabbing on to his shirt tightly as he moaned. Jack didn't wake the Doctor right away as instead he tried to comfort him. The Doctor's screaming just got louder though.

"Wake up sweetheart," Jack cooed softly so as not to startle him. It was obvious the Doctor wasn't going to calm down and Jack wanted to wake him before he disturbed Jenny as well. "You're safe here, you just need to open your eyes." He stroked the Doctor's hair behind his ear. The Doctor's eyes flew open and he sat up quickly. He was out of the bed and on his knees in front of the loo before Jack had time to react. Jack though caught up to him. He knelt down next to the Doctor rubbing his back trying his best to comfort him. The Doctor was sick over and over again, then continued to gag long after his stomach was empty. The entire time, tears were streaming down his face as he continued to cry.

He was finding it hard to pull himself together. He felt conflicted as he wanted to run as fast and as far as he could, while at the same time he never wanted to move again. Jack took the choice away from him though. As he finally stopped gagging, Jack helped him to clean up his face and then pulled him to his feet. He allowed Jack to lead him back to the bed and he curled up into Jack's arms, still crying as Jack held him. He cried like he hadn't cried in years. Tears streamed down his face and he sobbed until he couldn't cry anymore and just lay there feeling numb. The entire time Jack talked softly to him, telling him to let it all out.

"Want to talk about the dream?" Jack asked once he had calmed down. He shook his head no, feeling Jack's shirt was wet beneath his face, but Jack didn't seem to mind. "I think you should. If it upset you that much you need to talk about it." The Doctor remained quiet for a moment. Talking earlier had helped but he still had the nightmares. He didn't think he would ever stop having nightmares though.

"We were aboard the midnight bus. You were thrown off first still pregnant with our son and then Jenny while I watched," The Doctor explained. He didn't want tell Jack that it was the Master who had thrown Jack off. Laughing that he knew that Jack was pregnant and that the Doctor deserved to be alone. "I tried to save you but I couldn't."

"I'm safe and the baby is safe. Jenny is asleep in her room. You are safe here Doctor," Jack promised. The Doctor nodded and then got out of bed. He headed to the bedroom door and started to open it.

"Where are you going?" Jack questioned in concern.

"I need a drink," The Doctor answered. His throat felt raw from getting sick and his mouth dry from crying. It was only a partial truth though.

"I'll come with you," Jack started to stand.

"I want to be alone a minute Jack. I promise I will be right back. Just change your shirt and try to get some more sleep." The Doctor said softly.

"Promise you aren't leaving?" The Doctor crossed both of his hearts with his fingers and then left the room, closing the door behind him. He limped slightly as he headed down the stairs. His ankle was sorer now that he had slept and he wouldn't be surprised to find it was slightly swollen. He knew he should rest with his leg propped up but he didn't stop until he got to the kitchen. He got a glass of water and drained it before getting a second. The second one he sipped, heading to the TARDIS. The TARDIS hummed happily at him as he entered. He placed a hand on her console and closed his eyes. He needed his mind to be steadied before returning to Jack and she was the best one to do it. He felt her caress his mind softly before entering it. He didn't pull away as she began to help him unscramble his mind.

-DW-

Jack was laying on the bed staring at the wall. The Doctor had been gone for over twenty minutes and the entire time he had listened intently for the sound of the TARDIS leaving. Well almost the entire time. The first thing he had done after the Doctor left the room was to go check on Jenny. He was happy to see that she was still sound asleep in her bed and that the Doctor's screaming hadn't disturbed her. He had then changed his shirt before getting back into bed.

He rolled over as the door opened and the Doctor walked in. He was limping slightly but over all he was standing taller then when he had left the room. He climbed into the bed next to Jack, sitting up a little, not ready to go back to sleep yet.

"Feeling better," Jack asked.

"Yeah," He answered. Reaching out a shaking hand, he placed it on Jack's stomach, going under the bottom of his shirt so that his hand was on bare skin. Jack couldn't help the slight shudder that went through him as the Doctor's cool hand connected with his warm stomach. The Doctor closed his eyes and reached out to the baby's mind. He could feel it faintly. Pushing a little further he called the mind to him, sending out the feeling of love. He felt the mind get closer but it was to weak to come all the way to him. Not wanting to push their child to fast he reassured it that he would be back and sent the feeling of love again before closing off the connection. He had a slight smile on his face as he opened his eyes.

"What?" Jack asked curiously. He hadn't felt the baby move so he was wondering what the Doctor was thinking.

"Our son is going to be a telepath like me," The Doctor exclaimed happily. "I felt his mind Jack and he is healthy and strong."

"Can I feel it?" Jack wondered. He had slight telepathic abilities but he had learned most of what he knew had the Time agency.

"Next time, he is still to little to connect with all the time. We could end up hurting him rather than helping," The Doctor told Jack. He reached out and placed his hand to Jack's temple. Jack felt the Doctor nudging at his mind and he opened it to let him in. The Doctor shared the feelings he had felt from their son with him. Jack placed a hand on his stomach as the Doctor broke away. The fact they could feel their son's mind was incredible and he couldn't wait until they could reach out to him again.
