Jack leaned against the railing and looked around the Hub. For the last three weeks the Hub had slowly accumulated more and more decorations to celebrate the Christmas season. It had surprisingly started with Owen bringing in a little stuffed reindeer to sit on his desk. Then Gwen brought in little carolling dolls that sang ‘We wish you a Merry Christmas’ when you pressed one of their hands. Soon plastic snowflakes were hanging from the ceiling and the railings were covered in garland. Ianto even managed to find a Christmas tree in the archives, setting it up in the boardroom, and the team spent one of the slow days decorating it. Now there was a pile of presents underneath, waiting to be opened in a few hours.
It was three days before Christmas and Jack had decided to give everyone a week off, barring alien invasion of course. They would open the presents and go home to enjoy the holiday. Jack looked at his watch and say that it was 3:00. Close enough.
“Okay kids,” he called. “Let’s open those presents and go home!”
Everyone stopped what they were doing and shut everything down so they could leave as soon as the presents were open. They gathered in the boardroom and Ianto got everyone coffee before handing out the presents.
“If Ianto is passing out presents, shouldn’t he be dressed up as Santa?” Owen asked. “Or one of Santa’s elves?”
Ianto groaned as Jack’s eyes lit up
“Please don’t encourage him. He doesn’t need any help coming up with things for me to wear.” Ianto swore softly as he realized what he admitted to. “Just don’t make comments like that around Jack and life will be better for everyone.”
“I’m sitting right here you know.” Jack said, waving slightly at his young lover. “But he wasn’t giving me any ideas I hadn’t already thought of.”
“So which presents do we open first?” Tosh asked, saving her friend from further humiliation.
Ianto smiled thankfully at her and took his seat next to Jack. Jack’s hand automatically found Ianto’s hand under the table and their fingers entwined. Ianto looked at his lover (Boyfriend? Partner?) and felt a soft smile spread across his face in response to the one Jack was giving him.
“Who needs an order? I say we just dig in.” Owen said, grabbing a random gift from his pile.
The others followed suit and soon the board room was littered with wrapping paper and everyone had a neat pile of gifts in front of them.
Tosh had given everyone a look-a-like teddy bear. Where she managed to find an RAF coat for Jack’s and a little tray of coffee mugs for Ianto’s, no one would ever know.
Owen gave the girls a bottle of red and white wine each, while he gave Jack and Ianto each a bottle scotch.
Gwen got treat baskets for everyone that were filled with chocolates, massage oils, mini brownies and small cakes. Each person had different types of chocolate and cake depending on their preferences.
Ianto got books for everyone and each one had a personal inscription.
Jack gave Gwen and Tosh necklaces with matching earrings and gift certificates for a day at the spa. He got Owen some new Wii games and the latest update for World of Warcraft.
Ianto’s gift from Jack was simple, a blue silk tie that matched the colour of his eyes and a note that simply said:
Give me 20 minutes alone before you come home tonight
I have another present for you

Ianto looked at Jack questioningly but Jack only smiled in response.
****
“Jack?” Ianto called as he walked into their flat.
Ianto did a quick scan of the flat, but all the lights were off except for a light glow coming from the bedroom.
“Jack?” Ianto called again but still got no response.
He walked down the hallway, noticing red and white rose petals leading to the bedroom. Ianto smiled and walked a little quicker, pushing the bedroom door open without knocking.
His jaw dropped when he saw what was waiting for him.
Jack was lying on their bed, draped in red and white ribbons that were attached to a big bow covering his manhood. Jack looked at his young lover and smiled softly, love shining in his bright blue eyes.
“Merry Christmas Jones, Ianto Jones. My Sweetheart.” Jack whispered as Ianto walked towards the bed slowly. “I wanted you to know that you have me, body and mind, heart and soul. Forever.”
Ianto kissed Jack and noticed that although Jack responded to the kiss he didn’t try to take control. He was being submissive, letting Ianto take control. Whatever was or wasn’t going to happen it was Ianto’s choice.
Ianto cupped Jack’s face with one hand while his other hand trailed across Jack’s chest lightly. He teased one nipple into a little nub before pinching it quickly, making Jack gasp into the kiss and arch his back. Ianto smiled and moved from kissing Jack’s mouth to his neck. He kissed, licked and gently bit his way down Jack’s neck chest to his navel. Ianto stared up into his lover’s eyes as he dipped his tongue into Jack’s navel, something that always made him writhe, and he wasn’t disappointed. Ianto climbed on top of Jack and pinned his lower body to the bed before dipping his tongue into Jack’s bellybutton for a second time and gently tickling his inner thigh. Jack bit his bottom lip to keep from crying out, desperately trying to keep himself from hurting Ianto as his body tried to thrash as he was tickled.
Ianto gave one final lick to Jack’s bellybutton before moving up his body and gently removing his lip from between his teeth, sucking on it gently and tasting blood from where Jack had bitten through it. He carefully removed the bow and ribbons from Jack’s body, enjoying the noises Jack made as the ribbons ghosted over his sensitive skin. When Jack was finally ‘unwrapped’ Ianto released Jack’s mouth so he could gently stroke Jack’s cock and finger his entrance.
Jack whimpered quietly, automatically biting his lip again. Ianto smiled and kissed Jack deeply but not roughly, as he pulled the lube from the bedside table. Ianto prepared Jack quickly but gently, massaging his prostate every so often to make him moan. When he felt Jack was prepared enough, he removed his fingers and quickly replaced them with his cock. With one quick thrust Ianto was buried in Jack and Jack threw his head back, sighing half from pleasure and half from pain.
Jack pushed against Ianto, telling him he was okay, and Ianto started moving, thrusting carefully and massaging Jack’s cock at the same time.
“Ianto...oh Ianto...My Ianto.” Jack moaned as Ianto thrust harder and faster, hitting that sweet spot every time.
“Come for me Cariad. Come for me.” Ianto whispered, pulling Jack in for a kiss.
Jack screamed his orgasm into Ianto’s mouth and his body tightened around Ianto, causing him to come as well, filling Jack with his seed.
Jack fell against the bed as Ianto collapsed on top of him, both men too tired to move.
“Thank you Sweetie, that was amazing.” Jack said lazily, wrapping his arms around Ianto and holding him tight.
“No, Cariad, thank you. That was an amazing present.” Ianto said quietly, cuddling as close to Jack as he could. “I can’t wait to see what happens when it is actually Christmas day.”
“Just sleep now Sweetie. Let me worry about that.”

Ianto woke up on Christmas morning to Jack’s smiling face and a tray of breakfast.
Jack had made him chocolate-chip pancakes and he had freshly sliced bananas and strawberries on the side. There was also a bowl of whipped cream and a small pot of melted chocolate. Ianto knew without looking that it would be dark chocolate.
Ianto smiled at his lover and was rewarded with a kiss.
“Let’s get some real food in you and then you can open your present.” Jack said, cutting a piece off one of the pancakes and bringing it to Ianto’s mouth.
Ianto obediently opened his mouth and let Jack feed him, savouring the warmth and taste of the fluffy pancake. Jack fed Ianto the rest of the breakfast, adding the fruit, whipped cream, and chocolate when Ianto asked.
When the pancakes were finished and all the fruit was gone, Jack moved the tray to the floor, reached into the bedside table, and pulled out a small box.
He handed the box to Ianto and watched him open it carefully, taking the paper off slowly so it didn’t rip. Ianto looked at Jack before opening the box and looking inside.
Resting on a bed of velvet was a gold stopwatch, just like the one he and Jack had broken ‘whilst moving a desk’ just after Suzie died. For the second time. But this one came complete with a matching chain, though it could be removed easily.
Ianto opened the watch and a piece of paper fell out. He looked at Jack curiously but the older man just smiled at him. Not giving anything away. Ianto unfolded the paper and read the note:
Courtesy of the Queen.
She heard about the other watch being lost in the line of duty and wanted to help.
She says to tell you that you are a wonderful man and she enjoys your chats.
I love you Sweetheart.

“I’m just kidding about it being from the Queen” Jack said when Ianto shot him a dirty look. “Not kidding about loving you or her enjoying your chats though. Sometimes I think she prefers you to me.”
Jack placed small kisses on Ianto’s forehead, cheeks and nose as Ianto turned the stopwatch over, feeling an inscription on the back.
My Sweetheart,
I’m yours forever

“I still felt bad about the other one and the new one just isn’t the same.” Jack told him. “I saw this one and thought of you immediately. My sweetheart. My Ianto Jones.”
“It is perfect Cariad.” Ianto whispered, kissing Jack softly. “Thank you.”
