"Jack, how long has it been since you've been out of the TARDIS?" the Time Lord asked although Jack didn't want to say. It did seem like a really long time when you were able to use months in the answer.
"Over four months," the other man supplied for him and stuck his hands in his trouser pockets, "How about you have a night out tonight?"
Iefan banged his hand on the water so it splashed on Jack and he gestured with his head at the baby. How could the Doctor be suggesting this? He could never leave his son. Iefan was practically an infant.
"I'll watch Iefan here and you just...have a nice time," the Time Lord continued and Jack had the impression that he didn't have a lot of choice in the matter. He dressed as the Doctor finished the baby's bath. His old clothes fit just as before, including his coat. The other man carried Iefan in his night romper suit before picking up Philosopher's Stone. Jack kissed his son on his chubby, little cheek and said, "I promise I'll be back soon, Iefan, I will."
"Not too soon," the Time Lord whispered and he realized what this was. He wanted Jack to find someone to kiss and hold, at least for tonight. Well, that wasn't going to happen, but he supposed a drink could be fun.
"If anything comes up, if he starts coughing or won't sleep, anything, you call me on my mobile," Jack told him and the Doctor nodded. Then, he made his way out of the TARDIS.
The planet they were on was a crossroads with every species he'd ever met and so many more that he hadn't. Still, his mind didn't want to enjoy it. His thoughts seemed to be on a loop of Iefan, Ianto and Steven. He took a seat at a local bar and ordered a drink, wondering how short he could make this visit and not anger the Doctor. Sports scores appeared on a large screen and his drink arrived. As he was about to finish it, a tipsy Adipose wondered past on the bar before falling off it. It looked too young to even be in a bar like this; much less served. His right hand went for the mobile in his pocket. Maybe he could just see how the Doctor and Iefan were getting on.
Then, the bartender stepped in front of him again; a young man who needed a haircut and a shave badly. Jack had done both earlier. He set down a folded white piece of paper.
"From the man over there," he said and pointed behind him. As the bartender moved out of the way, Jack saw the Doctor near the entrance of the bar.
Jack tensed. What was he doing here? Had he left Iefan alone? He was about to demand an explanation when the Doctor nodded towards the paper. He picked it up and opened it. Only one sentence was written on it: His Name Is Alonso.
He looked back up and the Doctor motioned with his eyebrows at a young man who was sitting down beside Jack on a stool. He had the definite feeling that this wasn't the same Doctor he'd left behind on the TARDIS. This Doctor was older, especially in the face. He stole a glance at the man named Alonso with his ship's uniform and nervous demeanour. His eyes were a gorgeous blue.
The Doctor gave a salute that he returned. If he had gone through this much trouble, he might as well try to enjoy it. The other walked away and Jack gathered up his courage. He used to do this all the time even when he was with Ianto. A little flirting never hurt anyone.
"So, Alonso, going my way?" he asked and managed a smile.
"How do you know my name?" the young man questioned with an expression he couldn't help finding cute. Jack had to admit he was rusty at this.
"I'm kind of psychic," he replied with a small laugh. His comeback sounded so unsure in his ears and he tried to grin to pull it off.
"Really?" asked Alonso with increduilty
"Yeah," Jack spoke and was beginning to remember how much he used to like this. Alonso appeared to consider this and he liked the way his ears stuck out.
"Know what I'm thinking right now?" he asked in a playful tone.
"Oh yeah," Jack said with another laugh.
"Good," Alonso replied which made Jack chuckle again before draining his glass.
Another moment passed.
"I'm rubbish at this sort of thing, I don't get out that often," he spoke and straightened his uniform, "only have a couple of hours leave tonight."
The invitation was clear in his words.
"I don't get out that often either," Jack admitted and traced the mouth of his glass. He felt his blue eyes on him and Alonso scooted closer. It wasn't a surprise when he leaned over and kissed Jack on the lips. He kissed him back and his arm went around his back. When they pulled away, they were breathless and he realized he couldn't do it. Alonso's dark hair kept neat and short, his blue eyes, the unsureness on his face...they were too familiar. He found himself remembering all the times he had drank with Ianto. Jack rubbed his hands over his face and shook his head.
"I'm sorry, I can't do this," he apologized and the other shrugged, "But you're definitely striking, you'll find someone."
Jack had another drink as the bartender chatted up Alonso. When enough time had passed, he went back to the TARDIS. First, he went to his bedroom and watched his son sleeping. He was going to look for the Doctor, but he was seated in the rocking chair with Deathly Hallows in his hands; opened towards the end. The Doctor set it aside and faked a yawn so he could wipe his eyes. Jack tried not to smile that Rowling could still make the other man cry.
"Did you have fun?' he asked and his innocent expression confirmed that the Doctor he saw was from the future. If he told him the truth, would he have to go out again? No, it would be better to lie.
"Yeah," Jack answered and the other nodded before standing up.
"Good," the Doctor spoke and went to leave, "Good night, Jack."
"Night, Doctor," he told him while taking off his coat.
