Chapter Three


The training course continued on, with presentations, reports and outlines of upcoming designs and ideas. Ianto and Jack didn’t sit together, Jack sat with the other Heads of Branches. Ianto took notes, so Jack would have a full rundown to look back on if necessary. Ianto felt it was important to show Jack he was capable. He had had his abilities as a PA questions a few times, somehow it was considered not work for a male to be a PA in an office environment. Ianto hated proving himself, but Jack seemed quite Alpha Male and was worried he would not be appreciated for his abilities.

Jack found that his attention kept drifting to Ianto. The look of concentration on his face, the small frown as he took down complicated notes. Jack was wondering why Ianto was working so hard. The other PA’s seemed to be only taking half the notes that Ianto seemed to be taking.

At afternoon tea break Jack said “‘I’d like to take you all out for dinner at the restaurant here. I would like to get to know you all better, as the new comer to the UK branches.” It would be nice just to have Ianto for dinner, Oh, Ianto on a plate for my eating pleasure - no, Jack get your mind out of the gutter, I have to work with him and I don’t know if he swings that way.

The dinner was nice, but the other Heads kept Jack busy and he didn’t have time to talk to Ianto, who seemed to be having fun being the only male among the female PA’s. Jack thought he looked too comfortable with the females twittering around him. Looks like he likes the ladies, oh well, it’s probably easier for work if he is not interested in me.

Ianto kept looking over towards Jack, thinking I would like to get to know him better, I feel drawn to him and I don’t know why, this is not good.

The rest of the course passed with out any incidents. Jack and Ianto kept circling around each other. There were looks between them, and the tension was palpable. A few of the others in the course were feeling sorry for the staff at Cardiff, as David from London said “They either hate each other with a passion or something else, I’m so glad it’s not me at Cardiff, imagine working with the two of them acting like that in close quarters. Either they are going to hit each other or hit on each other, hopefully they are both on the same page, can you imagine what would happen if one wanted the other and all the other wanted to do was smack him across the face.” The other three who were sitting with David nodded their heads. “Yeah, the testosterone is so strong even I can smell it and I’m a 2 pack a day guy.” Judy giggled, “I’d like to be a fly on the wall when they work it out, they are both such great looking men, imagine watching them kiss and ...” “No that’s not an image I want in my head Judy, er...yuck” said David.

“Okay everyone that was the last formal session. You will need to met down at the Lobby at 7pm, we are going to dinner, on the Company and later we are going on to a few clubs, the dinner you need to attend, the clubbing is your choice or not.” Said Jodie, “There are some great clubs and I can direct you to other of the capitals delights if you have anything particular in mind you want to do after dinner.”

Jack looked at Ianto. Wonder if he likes to dance, would like to see that body moving on a dance floor, recon he would be graceful.

I would like to see Jack in a club, get him by himself, get to know him. Ianto closed his eyes and mentally berated himself, Not the best idea to have Jones, he is your boss, you shouldn’t be having those sorts of thoughts about him, but I can’t help it, he smiled, he is just - oh - he makes my heart skip when he looks at me.

Jack looked at Ianto just as he closed his eyes and sighed. Oh I wish I could make his eyes flutter shut like that, that is so hot looking, that smile, he is having rude thoughts, I bet he’s having rude thoughts, come on Ianto stand up I want to see if you pants are getting tight, I wonder who he is thinking off, just my luck it will be some girlfriend back in Wales. Harkness get a hold of yourself, He probably isn't even interested in men.

Jack looked down at the table just as Ianto looked at him, Why is he looking so sad, I wonder if I can make him smile, I lov... no I like it when he smiles.

David said “Come on guys, lets get ready, we’ve a hour before we have to go and I for one want to have a clean up and change, you never know I may score tonight.”

Both Jack and Ianto thought Yeah I would like to score but I don’t think he is that way inclined.

Everyone was down at the Lobby waiting for the mini bus that was taking them to the restaurant. Jack moved over towards Ianto, well thought Jack, I guess I should get to know him better, we are going to be working close. “Hi Ianto .”

“Hi Jack.”

“Looking forward to dinner and clubbing?”

“Yeah, I like to dance, Do you?”

“Depends on the club, I do like to dance.” But I would love to have you dancing next to me, a bit of dirty dancing, rubbing up to each other. Jack’s mind began to wander with images of Ianto, shirtless dancing close to Jack, using his shirt to hold Jack close to him.

“Jack are you alright, you have gone a bit quite, not like you.” Asked Ianto.

“Yeah, just thinking.”

“Anything I can help you with.”

Yeah thought Jack, a lot. How can I find out which team Ianto bats for? mused Jack.

The mini bus arrived, they all piled in and went off to a large restaurant.

The meal was pleasant, Jack maneuvered it so he and Ianto were sitting next to each other.

Ianto looked at Jack and asked “When will I see you in Cardiff?”

“I’m catching a train tomorrow and have reservations in a short stay apartment, until I get a place to live and my stuff comes from overseas, at the moment all I have with me are clothes and a few books and some things I couldn't leave to the movers.”

“So when will you be at work, so we can be prepared for you?”

“Monday, no reason for me not to be at work, I don’t know anybody, except you in Cardiff, and I may as well get started, but I will bend you ear about nice areas of Cardiff to live, the idea of being in a short stay for any length of time is not appealing.”

“No cleaning, or is your partner coming over to look after you?” Subtle thought Ianto, why don’t I just say to him Hey you free, do you like me, Ianto berated himself.

“Don’t have a partner, have to look after myself.” I wonder thought Jack, is he sounding me out?

Dinner was nice and the pair talked, getting to know each other, likes of books and movies being fairly similar, it was mainly music that they weren’t in sync. Jack like the big band, musical and the more melodic style, were as Ianto was defiantly a man who was born in the 80’s with a very broad like of music, Blues, New Country, lots of artists from Canada and Australia, a comment that intrigued Jack and a liking for ‘happy hardcore’ a style that Jack had never heard of, and Jack was fascinated by the name.

“So what is ‘happy hardcore’?” asked Jack.

“Happy joyous music of the dance style, you know the sort of stuff that is played at Dance Trance parties.” answered Ianto, which didn’t enlighten Jack at all.

“I’ll play you some some day, Jack, it your up to it, we can go to a club after dinner that plays dance music and you will get the idea.”

“Sounds fun, count me in.” replied Jack, even more fun if I can get Ianto to myself away from all the other Torchwood people.

Desert arrived and Ianto had a chocolate mousse. Not realizing what he was doing to Jack, Ianto ate the mousse by dipping the spoon in the mousse and then licking up the side of the spoon, like he was licking an ice-cream, his pink tongue them played with the end of the spoon, before he sucked the mousse off the spoon, then dipping in again for another spoonful. Jack was fascinated, imagining Ianto licking an appendage of his in the same manner.

Jack nearly creamed his pants.

au, the new boss
