A/N seem to be getting ideas from songs lately, which I suppose is a good way of putting the constant listening to music to use! Thank you very much Billie Piper for making this very catchy song! XD
Ianto progressed slowly towards Jacks office as the music volume increased and the singing that accompanied it became louder and a lot less tuneful, which was a major accomplishment for Jack. The rest of the Torchwood team soon left the Hub, covering their ears after the song had been repeated for the twenty second time that afternoon, and Ianto had come to believe that enough was enough. As the song started to repeat itself once more, Ianto knocked on Jacks door, and when no reply followed let himself into his lover’s office.
“Why you gotta play that song so loud? Because we want to, because we want to!” bellowed out of the door at a fierce volume and Ianto was welcomed with the unusual site of Jack frantically jumping around and attempting to sing along to the music. Ianto cringed at his boss’s taste of music, which made a curious change from the old fashioned tones of Glenn Miller which usually floated throughout the Hub.
“Sir?” Ianto started, “Jack ... JACK!” Ianto soon gave up attempting to get his attention and rushed over to the music player, noticing that the repeat button had been pressed, and pulled the plug out of the mains socket that was located behind. Jack seemed oblivious to the disturbance for a few seconds, carrying on singing and dancing in the process, until something in his mind seemed to click as he looked at Ianto’s face. Ianto was stood, hands on hips with a stern look about him, which was soon overlooked by a smirk and a glint in his eye at the previous sight of Jack looking so young and carefree for a change.
“Billie Piper sir? Didn’t think that that would be included in your record collection personally, but you know, whatever floats your boat”, the Welshman said with an even bigger smile on his face.
“It is alright you know Yan, a bit of a change is always good, plus have you seen her? There is something about her that reminds me of Rose. Can’t quite put my finger on it though”, Jack mused to himself, lost in thought of previous times and travels.
“Oh come on then”, Ianto stated quickly, as if giving into Jacks ways as he reconnected the plug and turned the music back on. He quickly grabbed Jacks hands as he danced and sang along with him, attempting to trip Jack out of his sorrow ‘thinking mode’ and to live for the moment, a moment that Ianto was all too cautious about. The typical ‘Harkness grin’ shone out of Jack as he twirled Ianto around his office and lost all thoughts about Torchwood and the outside world, just for a few minutes.
What they didn’t notice though was the Hub sirens go off as Tosh hurriedly rushed through the cog door to fetch her mobile phone which she previously left behind. She suddenly stopped as she glanced through Jacks office door and saw the two men smiling and laughing together.
“Note to self: make sure that I get this from the CCTV”, she muttered to herself as she exited the Hub, leaving the two men to their peace.
