Summary: After so long in prison, taking a bubble bath is true luxury.

A/N: Double drabble.
Left alone in the terraced house Jack had rented for her, Tosh felt adrift, out of place. After months locked away in the bleak, cramped UNIT prison cell, having so much space to herself felt unnatural, to the point that she scarcely knew what she should do with herself. She stood in the middle of the living room, taking slow, deep breaths, until she felt calmer, then decided that perhaps she should start by familiarising herself with her new home.
In reality the house was tiny, it only seemed huge because her cell had been so small. There, she’d barely had room to stretch, but here… There was a tiny foyer, fully furnished living room, and compact kitchen downstairs, the cupboards stocked with pans, dishes, cutlery, and plenty of food. Upstairs was a comfortable bedroom, with storage for clothes, and a bed so big that tears stung her eyes. To sleep on a soft mattress instead of a cold concrete floor!
But it was the bathroom that made the tears overflow. Huge, fluffy towels, and so many bottles of bubble bath! Sinking into hot water, scented foam piled to her chin, she was sure nothing would ever feel more luxurious.
The End
