The Doctor didn't seem confident as he walked with his head hanging around the medi-bay. Jack didn't question him as he knew it would take time for both of them to feel normal again. A single good nights sleep wasn't going to erase the fact that for the last year their lives had been dictated to them. Not only had they both had unspeakable things happen to their bodies, they had also been told when to wake up, go to bed and everything in between. Jack's life had been lived in chains while the Doctor had remained at the Master's side. Jack felt guilty for thinking it but he would not have switched the Doctor places during that year for anything.

"Do you need help?" Jack wondered as he walked over to one of the beds. The Doctor shook his head no.

"I've got it," The Doctor answered him as he opened a cupboard. "Normally the TARDIS could run medical diagnostics from anywhere on board, but with the repairs she needs she doesn't have the power to at the moment. Once we finish the repairs I am going to have to park her on the rift to recharge for a little while before she will be able to access the vortex properly again." The Doctor rambled as he pulled out a small vial of medicine then put it back. Jack watched on for awhile as the Doctor seemed to be checking what he had on hand rather than making sure he was healthy. After about ten minutes, Jack cleared his throat loudly to get the Doctor's attention. The Doctor jumped, paling slightly as he looked around.

"Right, yes," The Doctor mumbled to himself as he closed the cupboard. He walked slowly over to Jack pulling out his sonic screwdriver as he did. Jack smiled to see it again. The Doctor hadn't had sonic since the Master broke his on the second day aboard the Valiant.

"Doctor look at me," Jack told him softly. The Doctor looked up, his brown eyes lost.

"Yes Jack," he wondered as he lifted his hand to scan Jack. Jack grabbed his arm and the Doctor's eyes went wide. Fear filled them for a second, but as he looked into Jack's eyes the fear went away. Jack wasn't the Master and would never hurt him the way his once friend had.

"We don't have to rush to be better. If you want we can climb right back into bed and rest again or we can go out to eat," Jack suggested. It was in that moment that Jack decided that he wasn't going to leave the Doctor, not yet at least. While he still needed to return to his team one day, once the TARDIS was fixed they could absorb the difference in time. His team would never know how long he was truly gone. Besides he couldn't face them right now anyways. The Master had killed his team early on in that year, then had their bodies retrieved so that Jack could see them. Jack couldn't close his eyes without seeing the mangled body that once was his beloved Ianto for months. Thinking about it brought the images to the front of his mind again and he struggled to push them back down.

"A banana and tea?" The Doctor suggested with a small grin. Jack almost told him that he should have something more filling but didn't want the Doctor to lose that grin.

"As many bananas as you can eat," Jack agreed. He let go of the Doctor's hand and started to stand. The Doctor stopped him with a gentle push to make him sit back down.

"First I need to examine you," The Doctor informed Jack. Jack sighed. He sat impatiently while the Doctor ran the sonic screwdriver up and down facing his body. The Doctor finished, flicking it slightly with his wrist as he hit a button. The TARDIS immediately began to examine the information the Doctor gathered.

"So am I healthy?" Jack wondered. There were no physical bruises or anything else on his body at the moment. That was only because he healed quickly though and had nothing to do with how he had been treated. If it wasn't for his immortality Jack would have been nothing but a walking bruise or worse dead.

"You're pregnant," The Doctor whispered. Jack closed his eyes. The news that he could get pregnant didn't surprise him. He had already carried one child for nine months and after he had swore he was never doing that again. Now here he was sitting with the fetus of a man he hated growing in his stomach.

"He would have loved that," Jack hissed sarcastically.

"Actually he would be angry and disgusted to find out that a human was carrying his offspring," The Doctor responded completely missing the sarcasm as he continued to stare at the screen.

"How far along am I," Jack questioned. The Doctor turned to look at him finally.

"Not far. Human medicine wouldn't even be able to detect the pregnancy yet. At least not in this century. Besides the pregnancy you have a few internal bruises that are still healing otherwise you are completely fine," The Doctor told him.

"So now it is your turn for an exam." Jack held his hand out for the sonic. The Doctor glanced at Jack's hand as he slipped the sonic back in his pocket.

"When I renewed my body, I also healed myself," The Doctor responded as he turned to leave the medi-bay. He really wanted a banana, but he couldn't bring himself to leave the safety of his TARDIS. He stood in the control room close to the door, trying to get the courage to open her doors. Jack came up beside him, slipping his hand in to the Doctor's and squeezing it tightly.

"Ready?" Jack wondered. The Doctor shook his head no. "Me either. Let's go find something to eat." Together they stepped off the TARDIS into the fresh morning air. Without looking at remained of the funeral pyre they started towards the nearest city.
