This came to me while I was tidying my bedroom. Thus proving my parents theory that no matter what i do, or where i am, Ive got Torchwood on the brain.
Anyway.. Its Jacks turn to look the idiot telling Ianto how he really feels.
Disclaimer: I dont own anything.. Unfortunatly :(
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just his presence in the room made Jack shiver. The way Jack felt when he was around, it was nothing he’d ever felt before.
His stomach flipped when he saw him enter a room. He felt like falling to the floor when he smiled. And his welsh accent made him want to jump on him and kiss him until his lips where numb.
Ianto didn’t know any of this of course. And contrary to popular belief, It wasn’t because Ianto was just a ‘part time shag’.
Jack didn’t have the courage to tell him.
Pull yourself together Harkness, you’ve been to the end of the universe, lived and died a few hundred times, been in a thousand relationships. And never once been scared to say how you feel! Now this one person walks into your life with an amazing cup of coffee and the world greatest stopwatch and your helpless! You! Captain Jack Harkness, scared! You’ll have to tell him sooner or later.
Just as this thought entered Jacks mind, Ianto walked into the office.
‘Coffee, Jack’
Ianto’s coffee, it never failed to cheer him up.
‘Thanks Yan, How’s your day going?’ said Jack trying his best to keep his voice sounding casual.
‘Really very good, thank you. I managed to sort out block 37 in the archives. God, you’ve had some cowboys in there.’
Jack loved the way Ianto would comment on the state of the archives. He just didn’t tell him that he was the cowboy that filed them in the first place.
Jack woke from his daydream about Ianto’s little rant, Jack had always loved Ianto when he got agitated. It was the perfect excuse to take him in his arms and just kiss him.
‘Jack, Your daydreaming’ Said Ianto looking confused ‘What’s wrong Jack?’
‘What? oh, nothing. Listen what are you doing tonight? I need to talk to you’
‘I’ve had this talk before Jack, I’d rather you did it now’
‘Oh, Ianto, God no I’m not ending things with you! Hell no, It’s the other thing’
‘What other thing?’
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was now 7. 58. Where the hell is Ianto? Has he stood me up?
No, Ianto’s not that type of person. Your Just being paranoid, your nervous, its understandable. But where the hell is he? I’m about to tell the guy I love him. You’d think he’d be on time at least.
Jack looked up from his pocket watch; the one Ianto had given him for his birthday, and smiled as he saw the tall figure of Ianto walking towards him.
Ok, Jack, this is it. Its time.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
‘I know a great restaurant, just down here.’ Said Jack trying not to sound too nervous. ‘Its Great, The food is amazing and its quiet’
Jack turned to smile at Ianto, but Ianto had a worried look on his face.
‘What’s going on Jack? Its normally drink, home, bed. What so different tonight?’
‘Does there need to be reason for me to want to take you out’ Said jack, looking highly offended. ‘I just want to show that I care about you Ianto, I don’t tell you enough but.. I really do love you.’
Ianto coughed as though a drink had gone down the wrong way.
‘What?’
‘Forget it, it doesn’t matter’ Jack Stumbled, he’d never been more embarrassed. ‘I knew I should have said anything!’
He turned to walk of, and a hand caught his arm.
‘Jack, wait. I’m sorry. That just took me a little by surprise that’s all, I thought this was just a bit of fun to you. I never expected that’
Jack took both Ianto’s hands in his. They looked at each other for just a second. Jack breathed deeply ‘Ianto Jones.. I love you, Always have, and I will for the rest of my Life.. or you know, lives.’
Ianto smiled, and turned a strange shade of red. He caught his breath and looked up at Jack.
‘I’ve been through so much with you Jack. I’ve seen things that nobody outside of Torchwood could ever believe. Just when I thought we where getting somewhere, you left me Jack. You went off, god knows where with your Doctor.
‘Ianto, Please I..’
‘Jack, let me finish. You went with your Doctor. But you came back. Your didn’t have to, but you did. And I love you for that Captain Jack Harkness. Despite everything, I love you too.’
Jack pulled Ianto into a passionate kiss.
He loves you too! What where you so worried about! You should have known!
You’ve got him now. You don’t ever have to let him go.
They pulled apart, catching their breath.
‘Drink?’ asked Jack smiling.
‘Home and bed I think’ Replied Ianto reaching for his trusty stopwatch and shaking it in the air in from of Jack.
Maybe its time I got an actual flat now.. then he could come home every night
The End.
