Title: The Sleeper and Seduction
Chapter: 6/10
Rating - NC-17
Pairing - Janto (main), John/Ianto (a little)
Spoilers - 2x01 Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, 2x02 Sleeper
Warnings - OOC (just in case), violence
Summary - Jack tries to win back Ianto, but it won't be as easy as he thinks. Especially when Captain John Hart decides he wants the young welshman for himself. Add to that a young woman who might be a sleeper agent and people from Torchwood One being killed off, and it's going to be a long day. Sequel to 'A Different Kind of Kiss'
A/N - Huge apologies for how long this took to get up and to those people whose comments I replied to late. So, so sorry guys. Real life unfortunately got very hectic. For those of you still reading, I hope you enjoy (especially the last bit. Hee).
A/N 2 - I really, really wanted to add the scene from ‘Sleeper’ where Ianto and Jack are talking after Jack interrogated Beth … but it didn’t fit. Still love that quote though.
Chapter 6
A Change in the Status Quo
Waking up, Ianto decided, wasn’t something he wanted to do.
Unfortunately, his body had other ideas, pain flaring from his shoulder, although dulled from the stab it had been when Beth had first done it.
He wondered if the others had found him yet, wondered if he was still lying on the warehouse floor, or whether he was back at the Hub.
“You know I’m kind of getting sick of stitching you up, Tea Boy.”
His mouth twitched up at the side, Owen’s gruff voice a welcome sound, although he’d deny it if ever asked.
“Got to make sure you don’t get sloppy,” Ianto replied, voice coming out quietly, the movements making him flinch a little as pain lanced through his shoulder.
“Yeah, well, I’d appreciate it if you stopped making yourself my test subject,” Owen replied, filling a syringe with something before sticking it into the cannula that Ianto had in his wrist.
He frowned as he looked at it, wondering how bad the injury had been that he needed the cannula put in.
“Not as bad as last time, but bad enough,” Owen said, as if he could read his thoughts. “She pierced you straight through the shoulder; hit a lot of muscle and blood vessels, but nothing vital. You’re all stitched up, good as knew, although the shoulder will probably twinge a bit.”
Leaning down, Owen pulled out a bottle of pills.
“You’ll need to take these,” he said, holding them out. “And don’t think I won’t be watching you. I’ll know if you haven’t taken them.”
“So I’m clear for duty?” Ianto asked, sitting up, watching as Owen took the cannula out of his wrist, placing a band aid over the site.
Owen snorted.
“Light, very light, duty,” Owen said, crossing his arms. “Now get out of my medical bay, Tea Boy, and go make me some coffee.”
Shaking his head, Ianto pulled on the clean shirt that some one had left for him, his shoulder still a little uncomfortable as he did up the buttons.
“What happened to the woman?” Ianto asked, as he tucked in the shirt.
“Jack and Gwen are talking to her,” Owen replied, frown crossing his face. “She’s denying she knows anything.”
Nodding, Ianto slowly got off the table, taking a moment to get his bearings before making his way towards the stairs and up into the main Hub.
“How’s it going?” he asked Tosh, small smile crossing his face as she jumped, giving him a relieved look when she saw it was him.
“She’s still saying she doesn’t know anything,” Tosh said, turning and looking through the window into the interrogation room. “It’s odd, but I kind of believe her. I’m glad you’re okay.”
Sending her another smile, he turned back to watch Jack and Gwen talk to Beth.
“Stop wasting our time,” Jack said, leaning against the table. “We know you’re an alien.”
“There’s no such thing as aliens,” Beth replied, her face a picture of fear that would have almost had Ianto believing her, if he hadn’t had the feel of stitches pulling when he crossed his arms.
“What are the names of the other men?” Jack asked, glaring at the woman, not paying attention to Gwen’s disapproving glare, Ianto wondering if he could even sense that he was being watched.
“I don’t know!” Beth answered, her eyes wide. “I’ve never met them before in my life. I just woke up at that place with those men, you and your friends barging in.”
“Jack,” Gwen said, touching his arm lightly, looking up at him with the look that made Ianto want to retcon her and send her back to her old job and Rhys. “Let me try. You’re just scaring her, and we’re not getting anywhere.”
Jack looked at her, that soft look on his face, something in his eyes that always made Ianto’s heart clench. Closing his eyes, he looked away from the window, telling himself that he was being stupid, was over-reacting.
He’d hoped that Jack’s declarations meant the other man wanted to be more serious, would maybe tone down his flirting with Gwen. Except this wasn’t flirting, this was Jack’s emotions, and Ianto couldn’t ask the man to turn them off, not when he couldn’t turn the feelings he had developed for Jack off.
Jack nodded, giving Gwen a small caress of the arm, before walking away. Shaking his head and snorting to himself, Ianto wondered if he’d just been a fool for thinking that Jack might actually be willing to change, to stop looking at Gwen like she was the answer to some question that Ianto didn’t even know, that made him feel like he was just the second choice.
Taking a step back from the window, he decided to make some more coffee, knowing it would relax him and stop the hurt he could feel running through him, at least for a little while.
He couldn’t help but smile a little when he walked up the stairs, taking in Hart sitting in the small space where the coffee machine was, his feet up on the counter, reading through a book Tosh had given him.
Moving into the small space, he raised a disapproving eyebrow at the feet, smile spreading as Hart pulled them down.
“You never did answer me,” the Captain said, not looking up from his book, but still making Ianto feel like he had his full attention.
“Answer you?” Ianto asked, going about making coffee, his breath catching in his throat as he remembered the question Hart had asked him in the car.
Go out with me.
Swallowing, trying to get some moisture into his mouth, Ianto continued to make the coffee, heart racing as he felt heat spread along his back, Hart obviously having stood up and moved closer to him.
“Eye Candy,” Hart murmured, not touching him, but his breath puffing against Ianto’s neck, sending shivers down his spine.
Later, Ianto wasn’t sure why he did it, but he found himself turning, staring into Hart’s blue eyes, his chest tightening as he took in the other man’s intense gaze.
“Well?” Hart asked, moving even closer, his hands falling to the bench on either side of where Ianto was leaning. “Ianto.”
He couldn’t help but lean in a little, his eyes falling to the other man’s mouth, remembering how soft they had been earlier that night, feeling the want coming off Hart almost in waves.
“Ianto-”
Leaning back, out of Hart’s space, and turning his head, Ianto only saw Jack for a moment, saw the shocked look on his face, before he felt hands on his face, Hart pulling his face back around and kissing him.
