He dreams that the box wasn't sealed as tighty as it had been.

That it had started to crack and crumble with age. The dirt trickled onto his face and the water that seeped the cracks turned it to mud, creeping into his nose and mouth and suffocating him.

He dreams that the bugs followed the dirt and water and ate their way through his not living but not dead flesh. He dreams he can feel EVERY... SINGLE... BITE.

He wakes up screaming and clawing at the binding bedclothes (that remind him uncomfortably of winding sheets). He climbs all the way from his little room under the hub to the very topmost point of the building and just breathes in the air, almost hyperventilating.

He's up there for hours or minutes or an eternity, he's never sure, until he sees Ianto coming back with those little cookies that Jack likes but can only be found in one shop on the opposite side of the city. Then he climbs down, shivvering and dizzy to be embraced and warmed by Ianto's strong, comforting hug.

He goes about his day as if nothing has happened and no one says anything when Jack too-casually announces that he'll gaurd the door this time when they have to go underground after an alien that apparently finds human brains to be delicious.

Horrifyingly creepifying! (Or possibly the other way around.)

But the team has his back and Ianto is there to take care of the rest of him. *hugs Team Torchwood*

Poor Jack, it's a miracle that he's still sane after all he went through. I like Ianto comforting him, the gesture of getting the cookies was quite sweet.
