“Have a good time while we were away?” Jack asked cheerfully as she came to help them unload the SUV.
“Yeah, solve any useful equations?” Owen asked, far less cheerfully, carrying a heavy box past them and heading for the armoury.
Ignoring him, Tosh stared at Jack until he stopped loading Suzie and Elijah up with the rest of their stuff, and turned to face her, folding his arms and raising his eyebrows.
“Problem?” he enquired, the faintest curve to his lips telling her that he knew precisely what had been going on in his ‘absence’.
She waited until the others had gone into the Hub to unload properly, aware that Jack was beginning to look slightly wary, unsure how she was going to react. It would be so easy to use what she knew to force more answers out of him – who knew how many more secrets he was keeping from them all? – but she had the feeling that if she took that route Jack would be the one offering her a drink, rather than the one saving her.
So she smiled instead, and told him, “You owe me an ice cream.”
The smile he gave her in return helped her squash her curiosity, and he offered her his arm, saying, “We’ll let the others finish unpacking. So, Doctor Sato. The million dollar question. Strawberry or vanilla?”
