PARTNERS IN LIFE


Jack really hated cold planets. They reminded him of his trip to the frozen South Pole on Earth with Carter. He’d rather have sunshine and fishing temperatures any day. He wished he and Carter were somewhere fishing right now.

He smiled at his own thought and shook his head. Gotta be something wrong with a man who fantasizes about fishing with the woman he – loves?

Oh my! He’d never really thought about it like that before. Did he love her? Did he want her to be his - Wife? Girlfriend?

Girlfriend sounded so silly at his age. Woman friend sounded even worse. So what was she?

She was the light of his life! She was the reason he could drag his tired old ass out of bed each day and tramp through that Gate to some godforsaken jungle or freezing tundra half a galaxy away. And the reason he put up with all the rest – the Air Force and its rules, the mediocre pay, the secrecy.

He remembered how his chest had felt every time he’d almost lost her. It had ached like it had when Charlie had died. Living in a world without Charlie was hard, very hard, and Carter was one of the only things that made it bearable.

So yeah, he loved Carter, he supposed. Loved her more than anyone else he knew. Did he want her to be his girlfriend? Nope. He wanted her to be his partner – in life, in crime and especially in fishing.

A FIXED POINT

Could he go back, see her alive and ready for an adventure?

Of course he could…

Should he?

Could he bear it, knowing that he would lose her again? And again. And again.

How had her death become a fixed point in time?

Was she a linchpin in the fabric of space and time?

Was she that important?

More than him? More than River? Amy?

Yes, she must be. She must be the one thing that all time and space revolved around and her death was a moment carved in stone forever, for all eternity.

She was all those things and more. She told him he was a good man, even though he was suspected that was a lie more often than not. She was good and kind and she filled in all the empty spaces around him that were now just empty spaces again.

How was he to go on with her gone?

He smiled sadly, thinking of her telling him to “run, you clever boy” and he got on board the TARDIS and he ran. He went to places they’d been, thinking he night get a glimpse of her. He went to places she wanted to go, thinking the same thing.

But she was gone. Her death really was fixed in time and space and someday, he was sure his time or his space would end up before she’d gone and he’d see her, looking eager for another adventure, never fearing anything for long.

He missed Clara so.
