Under normal circumstances, Jack would notice April's subtle attempt to play matchmaker. But he's sufficiently distracted tonight that it doesn't strike him as unusual.

Captain Harkness, too, does not notice a sudden increase in music in the room. It seems natural and expected, even. And it's appropriate that April has chosen to do this during a song for slow-dancing between couples.

"I might have to leave before the night is over," Jack says, half-hoping that it takes a little longer for his team to open the Rift, and knowing that it won't be.

Captain Harkness calls on all his courage, feeling like he's doing something even more brave than flying sorties against the Germans. He takes a breath, and reaches over to hold Jack's hand. "Then make the most of now."
