"well the choice is either you stick around for a divorce or you pretend it never happened" Rose said waving her fork about "however I think you should stay married and tell mum, I need a good laugh"
"Oh thanks Rose, you're a big help" Gwen said sarcastically draining her coffee. She sighed and glanced at Jack who was still at the buffet table making a large pile of food on his plate.
The Doctor sniggered "I can just picture it" he cleared his throat and put on a high squeaky voice "hi mum, just came to tell you that I got drunk and then married to a fifty first century ex time agent, conman that has a habit of flirting with anything that moves"
Gwen narrowed her eyes "I do not sound like that" she said before helping herself to more coffee.
"Mum would shout, faint or slap the Doctor" Rose said
"But I didn't do anything" the Doctor protested
"Doesn't matter in her mind you should have protected me from Captain Jack Harkness and his flirtatious ways"
"Humans" the Doctor grumbled
Gwen avoided Jack for weeks, she always left the room when he entered and during the adventures she barely went near him. It annoyed Jack to no end. So he kicked the Doctor and Rose out of the TARDIS ("but it's my TARDIS not your why can't you leave?" the Doctor Whinged) and cornered Gwen in her bedroom.
It just happened to be at the time she was getting changed.
"Why are you avoiding me?" Jack asked
Gwen froze, "what are you doing here?" Gwen asked her fingers frozen round the buttons on her blouse.
"We need to talk. You've been avoiding me"
"No I haven't" Gwen said quickly turning round…she forgotten the fact the first three buttons on her blouse was undone.
Jack barely managed to keep his gaze on her face. "Yes you have, whenever I enter a room you leave, and you no longer hold my hand, do you think I'm stupid or something?"
"Jack…we're good friends. But you're not the type to stick with one girl and I don't want to hold you to me"
"What if I want to be with you?"
Gwen sighed "you don't, not really, you enjoy the chase, and once you caught the prize you leave it alone"
"I may have had millions of lovers Gwen but I had never loved anyone as much as you"
"You don't love me" Gwen whispered
"You…you…you…you STUBBORN woman" Jack exclaimed
Gwen allowed herself to smile. Jack grabbed hold of her shoulders and began to shake her.
"Before I met you, I only looked out for number one, YOU changed that. There was a reason why I rescued you from that slimy welsh git. And it wasn't for brownie points or anything like that"
"How would you know?" Gwen said "have you ever fallen in love?"
"Yes… to a wonderful girl with dark hair and pale skin. A girl who I met in London 1941, we saved the world together with a moody time lord and the girl's sister. I fell in love with my wife Gwen Harkness"
Gwen blushed slightly "I have never fallen in love" she whispered "until I met you"
Jack leaned in a brushed her lips gently "I love you Gwen Elizabeth Harkness" he whispered
"And I love you" she took his lips briefly and then pulled away "take me to bed Captain, make me yours again"
Jack smirked as he began to slowly unbutton the rest of Gwen's blouse "you always were mine" he said
He played with her hair as he watched her sleep. Gwen smiled in her sleep and snuggled closer to him. Jack smirked mine all mine, take that you welsh slime ball…
Gwen stirred and opened her eyes, she blinked to her surprise Jack was still there holding on to her.
"Hello" she mumbled
Jack grinned "hello"
They sat there in silence just smiling at each other.
"Tell me about you" Gwen whispered
"Hmm?"
"I know you're missing two years worth of memories. I know you travelled and shagged a lot but I don't know all about you"
"My real name is not Jack Harkness, I can't remember what is, and I know it was Jack something. This man called Jack Harkness died the day I came into this time period, not the time we met the first time…and I took it. It fitted me so well"
Gwen nodded encouragingly
"I lived in Boeshane Peninsula…it was so beautiful…peaceful and calm…there was war around us though…these creatures attacking planets that surrounded us…we were ignorant…"
Gwen leaned on her elbow shifting herself up, her hand on Jack's cheek.
"My father told me to look after my brother to not let go of his hand….but I did….I didn't realise… my brother was called Grey"
Tears fell freely down Jacks cheek, Gwen held onto him.
"Shh…it's not your fault, you didn't realise" Gwen whispered
"I've done so many bad things Gwen" Jack whispered please still love me. That was the silent plea.
"Doesn't matter" Gwen muttered "I'll always love you, no matter what"
"Ready for round two?" Jack joked weakly.
"I'll always be ready" Gwen whispered before kissing Jack for what must have been the thousandth time that night.
Author's note: I always found Jack and Gwen the Torchwood version of the Doctor and Rose and I am miffed that Gwen married Rhys. Please review, next chapter will be Boom Town.
