Lovers! *grins*captain_flyboyApril 20 2012, 19:06:00 UTC
Most people know Jack Harkness as a man who can charm and flirt, but when faced with battle, Jack becomes something else altogether. He had been fighting near Martha and saw her fall. "NO," he cried out running to her side, "no....not you Martha....not you...please."

Martha lay on the ground clutching her belly. And then Jack was beside her. She brought her "clean" hand up to his cheek. "Sshhhh.... Jack. It's OK," she tried to calm him, knowing full well she was going to die. Stomach wounds were not good.
Martha saying she's okay draws a harsh laugh out of Jack. "Only you would say that while bleeding on the ground," he says, "Martha....it wasn't supposed to end like this.....you were supposed to live a good long life."
Martha smiles sadly. "You're not a Time Lord Jack. We don't know what is or isn't part of our Time Lines."
Her face screws up in pain for a second and then she 'relaxes' again. "Besides, I don't think supposed to is part of our Time Line anyway. You're not supposed to be immortal. Just like I wasn't supposed to be able to defeat the Master."
Jack is crying now. "Don't say that my sweet nightingale, we are who we are and we did the best we could with what we had. That's nothing to be ashamed of."
"Don't cry Love," she whispers as she wipes a tear from his cheek.
"Please don't. We had a wonderful time together," she continues, struggling to sit up and whimpering at the pain. "It's not every day you get to say you saved the world with the man you loved."
Jack chuckles. "More then once too," he says leaning down to kiss her, "the Doctor would get so annoyed the trouble would be over before he even got to us. Said we always took the fun out of a good rebellion."
Martha accepts the kiss with as much grace as possible and tries to return it.
"The Doctor needs to learn how to control his TARDIS better if he doesn't want to miss things," Martha said with a small smile. She was running out of time.
"Jack... when you see him... let him know... let him know I never forgot everything he taught me.... that I'd never trade any of it," she began
"I'll tell him," Jack says fighting tears again. He knows the Doctor is going to rage at him for this but he will deliver the message and let the Time Lord exhaust his grief on him. "I'll also tell him how much you loved him Martha."
"Oh Jack. I'm sorry. I'm sorry I wasn't quicker. I'm sorry we don't get to spend more time together."
The hand holding her stomach reaches out to grab his, though it's slippery with blood. "Jack. My love." She's losing focus and trying to get out the pertinent information. "I'm so happy... so happy to have you. Had you for so long... I can't imagine a better partner." And it wasn't what she wanted to say. She couldn't find the proper words for what she wanted to say. Hopefully enough love showed through the pain in her eyes.
A spasm of pain wracked her body and she tried to laugh it away. "Not long now..."
"If I had my way it would have been even longer. I wanted to see you with gray hair and grandchildren,' Jack says as he squeezes her hand, "You've made me so proud."

She coughed. Blood. "Jack," she gripped his hand. "Thank you... for... for... being every... everything... to me. I... love you... so much..."
A blackness creeped around the edges of her eyes and she coughed up more blood. "Love... you."
