Beautifully-written drabble, as rich in what's "between the lines" as what's actually there in the written ones.
Love the hint of the ongoing battle between the two: for dominance over the other (always been a touch of that, from the very beginning, in their verbal jousting--makes sense that it would extend to the bedroom too, and brava to Lizzie for conceding control to Jack, "that first time"!), as well as against their own feelings for one another. In some ways, these two are much too alike for their own good, and thus will frequently be in conflict--but then again, it's that bit of friction that sparks the fire. ;-)
(And, in regard to your response to an earlier Comment, as much as you love the non-explicit sex, your rare forays into NC-17 territory prove you're an accomplished master (mistress?) of the OTHER variety as well! As far as your writing is concerned, it's utter perfection, and I love it ALL!) ;-)
