Jack all but fell into the TARDIS. He stumbled forward a step or two before falling down onto his knees on the metal grating.
It was bigger on the inside. He supposed he should be surprised by that, but he wasn't, not entirely.
He looked up at the domed roof of the console room and back to the Doctor as he ran from the door to the console. Standing up, he caught his breath.
"That was close," he said, "really close."
Whatever it was they were running from --and that was a hard memory to recall-- the Doctor had just saved him from it. Jack was acutely aware of that fact.
He supported himself on one of the coral balustrades, and it felt oddly warm beneath his fingers. Looking over at the Doctor, he nodded, "You just saved my life. Thank you."
