*sneaks up behind her and speaks lowly in her ear* A word, Martha?

[drmartha_jones]

*tilts her head back and smirks up at him* For you, Jack? Of course.

[cjharkness]

My office, please. *leads the way*

[drmartha_jones]

*stands and follows him, then takes a seat when they get there* What is it?

[cjharkness]

*sinks into his chair, leaning back and folding his hands across his stomach* Tell me honestly, Martha. Do you think I should be worried about this Time Lady business?

[drmartha_jones]

*glances at him, frowning slightly* I don't think there's anything to be worried about, Jack. Though I'd rather like to know who thinks my private life is their business.

[cjharkness]

*chuckles* Torchwood, Martha. As long as you work for me, any danger to you or to the others that work here is the business of the organization.

[drmartha_jones]

*eyeroll* Right, I'd forgotten about the invasion of privacy clause in my contract. How do you like the footage from the hidden camera in my shower, then?

[cjharkness]

*stands and closes the door to his office* So angry, Dr. Jones. *smirks a bit and leans against the door* Tell me, is the attitude specifically for me or is something else bothering you? Or is this sort of backbiting the norm now?

[drmartha_jones]

*apologetic look* Sorry, Jack. *rubs her temples* I've just been...irritable lately. I don't mean to take it out on you. *dryly* I'd blame it on hormones, but I'm not sure that Gallifreyan endocrine systems work quite the same way as humans'.

[cjharkness]

*nods, walking to her chair and dropping to his knees next to her, resting a hand on her knee* Martha, I... *takes a breath and lets it out* Do you want to work for me?

[drmartha_jones]

*teasing grin* That looks more like you're proposing to me, Jack.

[cjharkness]

*grins* Do I really seem the marriage type?

[drmartha_jones]

*laughs* Not so much, no. *sticks her tongue out at him* Think of the adorable children we'd have, though!

[cjharkness]

*chuckles softly* I need an answer, Martha.

[drmartha_jones]

*shrugs* Why wouldn't I?
