Summary: Jack hates being sick for more than one reason.


Jack slumped back against the pillows, feeling completely wiped out. Stupid virus. He was immortal and virtually bulletproof, but something as silly as a few bugs could still knock him around.

'Let me guess,' he said, sulking at Owen. 'Bed rest and lots of water, right?'

Owen smirked. 'See, now what do you need a doctor for then, eh? I should give myself the day off.'

'No coffee?' Jack knew he was being hopeful but it didn't hurt to ask.

'Nice try. Water only.'

'It is water. It just has coffee, milk and sugar added to make it more palatable.'
