Felt like doing something very different this time…I was a big fan of the JackxCarly pairing…during the dark signer ark it could have happened, but then they HAD to go destroy it in season 2 didn't they? It was actually a cute pairing.. But you don't want to hear all my jibber-jabber, so I'll stop now and start the story.

Jacks instinct was to go on by as though nothing was happening when he saw the scene of the car-crash. He hated seeing them, they scared him for a reason he did not know-and would never admit even if he did.

But when he saw the face of the injured girl, he went against his instinct and rushed towards the wreckage, yelling her name.

"Carly!"

Her glasses had fallen off, and they were lying next to her .blood stained her top and face, and her camera was in smithereens. Of course her car was badly damaged, but the van that had crashed into her only had a dent in the front of the driver was unharmed –something which made jack's blood boil.

Trying not to crack, he cautiously knelt next to Carly and picked up her glasses, putting them on her face so that she could see him, the same way he had when he had defeated her when she was a dark signer. Back when he had loved her.

No wait, that wasn't right. He still loved her. A lot. But he just couldn't show it…or didn't want to show whatever it was , now it was too late…judging by the injuries that were obvious to anyone …no time.

"Jack….is that you?" her weak voice pierced his thoughts.

"You're alive?Thank goodness!" Screw acts of being kingly or whatever, he was too relieved!

"Jack..?"

"I…I…was so damn worried about you! Worried that I would lose you."

Carly laughed quietly.

"What's so funny! You almost bloody well died because of that idiot!"

Carly smiled.

"You don't get it, do you? "

At this point Jack was wildly careening between reliefs that Carly wasn't dead to despair that she may end up dead to total anger at the driver that couldn't look where he was going

"Get what? That I still love you but was too much of an ass to say so?"

That made Carly smile

"That doesn't matter, silly . Don't you know that there's always time enough for love?"

Hope you enjoyed this
