Louise saw the trapdoor in the floor lent down a pulled it open, carefully stepping down onto the ladder then gathering the box into her arms she carefully stepped down the rungs of the ladder. It led to a small room with not much in it just a bed, a few home comforts she supposed but the bed just had a mattress, she opened the box and in side was a duvet, pillow and bed sheets, she pulled it all out and started to make the bed. She was so occupied with what she was doing she didn't hear Jack come down the ladder behind her. She leant over to tuck in the last side of the sheet and she felt her feet go from under her as she was spun onto her back. Jack pinned her down, leaning in close.

"Gotcha," He smiled cheekily, "You weren't expecting that now where you?"

"No," she wriggled a little seeing how to get free. "No I was not. Is there something you wanted Jack because you could just have asked. Also you could have let me finish making the bed!" He smiled.

"Problem is I don't think you would answer my questions and what would be the point in letting you make it just for us to unmake it again."

"Try me," she smiled. Jacks eyebrows' raised a bit as he smiled a little.

"What if it's not questions?" her hearts started to beat a little faster. She had no idea what to do, no idea how to handle this, she'd fought wars but had no idea how to handle Jack or just generally men. She tried to control her breathing before saying more quietly that she had intended.

"Try me." He smiled, pressing his lips to her, she didn't move. He pulled back looking into her eyes she tried to keep a straight face, but God that kiss had been amazing. His hands where pinning hers down above her head his knees on either side of her hips. He wasn't putting any of his weight on her. He lent in again but she twisted her head to the side his lips brushed her cheek before moving to her neck.

"Jack stop." She gasped, he smiled against her neck.

"I've caught your interest now though." He jumped off of her and was up the ladder in a flash. She sat up breathing heavily, trying to calm herself down, what the hell was that? She stood up and climbed out of the room walking straight past Jack who was in his office. She practically ran down the stairs to Gwen who was opening one of the last boxes.

"Did Jack see you he wanted to check something?" Gwen looked at her.

"Yeh he did I'm just going to check the rift predictor program."

"Ok then do you reckon you could give me a hand with rest of these boxes? I swear if Ianto was here they'd have been done in a matter of minutes!" she faltered after saying it. Louise gave her a small smile and nodded.

"Of course." She typed away at the computer and then left the program running. Opening the last box and helping Gwen set everything up. They'd had some movers in the other week, putting in some home comforts and none of them remember!

Jack came back out of his office an hour or so later, Gwen and Louise sat in the Hub drinking coffee Gwen had been telling her some story's about Jack and the Torchwood team. Jack smiled at them.

"Gwen I'm surprised your still here!"

"Its only 7pm, Rhys won't be expecting me home for hours."

"Well you can get off if you want, we can hold the fort you know." Louise tensed a little, thinking back to earlier that afternoon. She'd calmed down but still had no idea what to do.

"Thanks Jack, I'll get going then!" she stood up scooping up her bag. "You sure you can manage?" she looked at Louise who smiled.

"Yes I can I mean it's only Jack!" Gwen laughed and headed out of the Hub; Jack came and sat next to her. Louise heard the cog door close and knew Gwen was gone, she was about to get up when Jack started to talk to her.

"So you going to learn to relax around me or not?" she tensed again.

"Jack I..." she trailed off she had no idea what to say.

"It's alright I get it."

"Get what?"

"You're nervous but you know there's something between us."

"No I can't...Jack the way things are on Gallifrey...it's different to here I'm not used to all this..."

"Attention." He laughed and she smiled.

"Well yes actually! On Gallifrey you have one partner that's it ever and here it's so different you date and break up and people get hurt."

"But isn't that so much more fun? So much more interesting, you have a freedom to choose who you want to be with, nothings chosen for you." She'd never looked at it like that. In some ways it was what she always wanted freedom from everything and now she had it she smiled and lent back again. "See now you can relax! I know it's hard for you but really it's not so bad being stuck here you know." She smiled at him.

"Yes your right it's not bad." She stood up and he got up as well, she turned and he looked at her, "You know you're an incredible woman." Jack looked her right in the eyes, his bore into her as if they could just read her mind, as if he was looking right at her soul. She smiled at him raising her eyebrows impressed by his attempt to flatter her.

"And you Captain have very striking cheek bones." He smiled at the way she had spotted what most people found attractive in him. "Along with your eyes it's a winning combination." She didn't sound sarcastic, he could never tell. She walked up to him and ran a finger under his left brace. Her eyes intrigued him, she was young but her eyes told him everything. They were the only part of her that gave anything away, old beyond her years, just like the doctor. As if she could sense what he was thinking she dropped her gaze to his chest. He ran the back of his hand down the right side of her face, softly tilting her face back up to his. He saw a glint of fear in her eyes. He looked down at her his right arm on her waist. As she looked up at him she could see love in his eyes, a care for her only one other man had ever expressed.

"I've sent Gwen home early; I'll be in my office if you want me." He let her go, turned and walked off towards his office, his coat tails swirling after him.
