Jack's heart beat just that little bit faster, and it wasn't so much action as it was words. The Doctor loved him, yes, that he was sure of and there was nothing to diminish it. He wasn't saying it because he was about to die, or because it was some sort of apology or strangled admittance; merely saying it because it was true, and sure the word itself might not be there but that didn't matter, because he was saying it, Jack could hear that.
Jack didn't do love, he didn't do this and so the fact they were? It was overwhelming. But overwhelming in all the right ways.
The next words too effected him, and just as much as the last, if not more. He closed his eyes tight for a moment, tried not to let the emotions come to the surface too much (crying now really wouldn't be the look he was aiming for). But he didn't cry, he smiled, and he leaned in and kissed him again. Kissed him and put into it how good hearing that made him feel, because there was no way he could put that into words.
And so, while he kissed him, he reached his arms to the Doctor's shirt, pulled it free of his trousers, undid the last of the buttons, and pushed it back over his shoulders. Because that's what he wanted to do. And he understood now, that was okay.
