failegaidin Jack endured the ride back to CTU in silence. His experience in the Russian consulate had been sobering, and now he was lost in thought.
His only thought when he broke into the consulate was getting the information he needed to stop the nukes. He hadn't been thinking about
But after he had been captured, Jack's thoughts turned to other things. He didn't want to be tortured again. He didn't want to die. But the reason for him wanting to stay alive wasn't what he had expected it to be. He didn't long to see Audrey again. He wasn't clinging to some hope of reconciling with Kim. The only face he could see in his mind was…Chloe's. For some reason, he wanted to rush back to CTU and…
Jack shook his head. He'd never had those thoughts about Chloe before. Well, not often anyway. Once or twice (or more) while he was in hiding. When she ran into his arms and he realized that she was okay. This morning when he had finally walked back into CTU and he had seen that she had dyed her hair brown.
Jack suddenly found himself wondering how her hair would feel in his hands. He wanted to know, and was filled with a sudden urgency to get back to CTU and find out. But thinking about touching her hair only led to more thoughts about touching the rest of her. He wanted to know what it felt like to hold her hand, to slide his hands up under her shirt, to push her up against the wall and…
"We're here," Curtis told him, breaking into his thoughts.
***
This particular debrief with Bill was the longest Jack had ever had to endure. He knew that it had to be done, but all he really wanted to do was go find Chloe and…
"Alright, Jack, I think that about covers it," Bill said, standing up and extending his hand across the table.
"Thanks, Bill," Jack said, shaking his hand.
"I think we might need to ban you from foreign consulates for a while, though."
Jack chuckled. "Yeah. That might not be such a bad idea," he conceded.
Bill's face grew serious again. "Jack…this is going to sound odd, but…you're either going to want to go find Chloe right now or avoid her completely. You have to pick one or the other."
"What are you talking about?"
"She's furious with you, Jack. We finally get you out of
Jack nodded and walked out of the room.
***
Chloe was at her station, quietly seething. The look on her face clearly told everyone to leave her alone. She couldn't believe that Jack had done something so stupid…again. She wanted to either hit him…or pin him against a wall and make out with him. She wasn't entirely sure which yet. Her scowl grew deeper as she saw the cause of her distress walking towards her.
"Chloe," he started, a smile on his face.
"Go away Jack."
"I want to talk to you."
"Well I don't want to talk to you. I don't talk to guys who have a death wish."
"Chloe…"
Chloe slammed her hand down on her desk, startling both of them. "No, Jack! Did you just forget the last eighteen months you spent being tortured by crazy Chinese people? Or were you just that eager to compare how the crazy Russians would treat you?"
"Chloe…" Jack lowered his voice, anger seeping through that she wouldn't let him talk to her.
"No. You obviously don't care about the people you leave behind. So just leave me alone, Jack."
Chloe stood up to leave her station, and to leave Jack, but he was quicker. Roughly grabbing her arm he all but dragged her off the floor and down a secluded CTU corridor. When he stopped, he pushed her up against the wall, his hands pinning her arms and his face mere inches from hers.
"You think I don't care?" he growled at her. "You think I want to die? I did what I had to do, Chloe, for the good of the country-"
Jack's speech was cut off as Chloe's fist came in contact with his face. She had a mean right hook, and Jack had to blink a couple of times and shake his head to focus again. When he looked back at Chloe, her face was flushed with anger. She pushed against his chest and then turned to walk away from him. So Jack did the one thing she'd never see coming.
Grabbing her arm and spinning her back around, he brought his lips crashing down to hers. She tried to pull back, startled, but Jack pulled her flush against his body, forcing her mouth open and attacking her tongue. Chloe tried weakly to push away from, but her heart wasn't it. She decided instead to focus her attention on kissing him back, wrapping her arms around his neck and pushing herself back against him.
Jack groaned as Chloe pushed their bodies closer. He dragged her back against the wall and pinned her there with his lower body, letting his hands roam. He started with her hair, feeling how soft it was as it slid between his fingers. Then he cradled her head in his hands so that he could gain greater access to her mouth. From there he moved down, lightly brushing over her breasts. Chloe moaned and arched her back, managing somehow to get even closer. Her hands were playing with the hair at the nape of his neck and Jack was beginning to lose any powers of cohesive thought. He slid his hands further down, resting them on her hips. Her shirt had ridden up the slightest bit from their little tussle, and he toyed with the edges of the fabric, giving her goosebumps. Finally he slid one hand up the back of her shirt, while the other splayed out across her lower back and held her even tighter. Chloe's hands had slid down to his waist as well and were now exploring his stomach and chest beneath his shirt. The restriction of clothing was becoming too much for Jack, and he dipped his thumb beneath the waistband of her skirt…
"Ahem," a stern voice interrupted.
Jack and Chloe jumped apart, both refusing to meet Bill's gaze, attempting to smooth out their clothes and regain their composure.
"I'm sorry Mr. Buchanan. We were just-"
Bill put up a hand. "Don't Chloe. I know exactly what you two were doing." He turned to Jack. "When I told you to go find Chloe, I didn't mean for you to have your way with her in a back hallway of CTU."
Jack looked down at the floor, trying to look ashamed when really all he could think about was touching Chloe again. "I'm sorry sir-"
"That's what we have holding rooms for."
Both Jack and Chloe's heads snapped up. But Bill had already turned around and started to walk away. They looked at each other warily, wondering what the other was thinking.
"Does Holding 2 have that one-way mirror?" Jack asked suddenly.
"No. That's Holding 1," Chloe answered.
Jack grabbed her hand and started dragging her after him. "Holding 2 it is then."

I also thought it was absolutely brilliant that Chloe punched Jack in the face. Fantastic job.

Loved this, I can just see Chloe trying to explain her way out of it and getting tied up in knots. Excellent. What I wouldn't give to have me some Jack Bauer in Holding 2 :)
