"Should and shouldn't isn't half as black and white. Sometimes we have to make tough calls." He let out a breath and shook his head. He didn't want to talk about that, it'd get all too serious and neither of them should be talking morality right now.
"Getting back at you?" Jack raised an eyebrow and started laughing again for no particular reason. "Quite the prankster, were you, Doctor? You naughty naughty man you."
Jack rolled his eyes a little, perhaps slightly over dramatically, and leaned his head up on his elbow. "That wasn't my intention, Doctor. You really think I'm trying to highlight the fact I told you I loved you? And look, now I've said it again! See! And it's not like my head's quite straight here either, you know. Wouldn't say that again for one if it was."
His own tongue was loosened by the drink, perhaps not quite in the calculated and precise way the Doctor's way, but in it's own way, forcing his secrecy down. It gave him the courage too, to go on.
"But seeing as you are thinking about it, please don't let me stand in the way of you talking."
