"I like persistence, though," the Doctor said, giving Jack another grin. "It's an excellent trait! Right up there with flossing and knowing when to wander off."
His own hearts sped up at Jack's movement, at the way his hand was pinned just over his head. There was no threat in it, and he knew that if he truly wanted to tug away, he could. It was the implication that Jack was in control. Or maybe that they were struggling for control, that was fun, too.
Fun. It wasn't often enough that he considered the idea of a relationship with someone fun. But that was Jack, wasn't it? He took things the Doctor was prejudiced about and turned them into things he adored.
"Not going to lie to you, Jack," the Doctor said, raising an eyebrow. "A bit excited."
