The Doctor stood with his back pressed to the wall, a little out of breath from his frantic dash down the hall. He held the digital camera to his chest like a cherished possession.
He listened desperately for any evidence that Rook might still be awake. When he heard nothing for a good five minutes he decided that it was safe to set out for Jacks room.
The Doctor prowled down the corridor, heading towards the only bedroom door with a sign on it, it read ; 'Enter at own risk, high probability of getting pounced upon.' Martha had constructed the sign after she had strolled into Jacks room one afternoon and he had mistaken her for Rook, causing Jack to get a slap upside the head.
The Doctor warily opened the door, it wouldn't be unlike Jack to still be awake and waiting for someone to brave the wilderness that is his room. He peered through the crack he had made, one brown eye staring into the cavern-like room.
He didn't notice anything move, or anything suspiciously shadowed, so he opened the door a little more bracing for the inevitable onslaught that is Jack Harkness.
But it never came. The Doctor looked up and stared around the blue room, his eyes travelled over the piles of debris, clothes and alcohol bottles, finally coming to a stop on the pale blue-sheeted bed. The bed that was empty. Jack was nowhere to be seen.
The Doctor pouted cutely and stepped out of the room, there hadn't been a sign of a plush toy anywhere, or any evidence of cuteness. He stalked off down the corridor, reasoning out where Jack could have disappeared to.
He dashed off to the kitchen again, Jack was prone to midnight munchies, as discovered by the Doctor when Jack had nearly given him a heart attack wandering into the kitchen one night. But as he reached the kitchen come dining room he found it disappointingly empty.
Sighing he set off again, checking rooms as he went. Every time he opened a door he was greeted with an empty room, that is until he walked past the movie room.
A light was flickering inside the room, and the Doctor could hear the sounds of a movie playing. He braced himself and laid his hand on the door-knob, gently turning it and pushing the door open.
He stepped into the room, bathing himself in flickering lights from the large screen, displaying a fight scene in the Pirates of the Caribbean. The Doctor automatically flinched as he saw Jacks form curled up in a chair, but nothing flew into him, or knocked him to the floor. He was left standing there, with his arms covering his head and his digital camera clutched in a hand.
He cautiously strolled over to Jack, noticing the deep and even breaths he was taking; he was asleep, and something suspiciously plush was cradled in the crook of his arm.
The Doctor moved around to the front of the chair to get a better look, Jack was in his pyjamas; a pair of long, baggy, checked trousers, and was lacking a top. He was using the plushie as a sort of pillow, but the Doctor could see enough of it to realise that it was a polar bear.
He whipped his camera up and took a couple of photos of Jack snuggling up with his polar plushie. Panic struck the Doctor as Jacks eyelids started to flutter open, he pocketed the camera and dashed out of the room letting the door click shut behind him.
He ran all the way back to his room where he flopped onto his brown bed. He fished the camera out of his pocket and placed it on his bedside table, along with a little memo to upload the photos to the Tardis memory. He chuckled before rolling over and snuggling down into his bed without bothering to change his clothes.
He clapped and the lights went off, he closed his eyes and started to drift away. But suddenly his eyes snapped open, he reached out in the dark, groping blindly until his hand closed around something soft and furry, he dragged it to his chest and settled down to sleep.
