Title: Phone Call
He'd tried calling twice already and he was beginning to get worried. Usually he picked up on the second ring, third if he was farther away from his phone. Never had he not answered it. He was calling a third time and if it wasn't answered he was taking drastic measures.
He was very surprised when the phone was picked up and answered with an extremely angry what in a voice that did not belong to the person he was calling. There was a twinge of jealousy in his gut but he ignored it and decided to play with this. There were a number of reasons why someone else was answering the phone and he shouldn't be jumping to conclusions.
"Hello," he said in his sexiest voice. "Who might you be?"
"I'm not sure if I should tell you…" the voice trailed off for a moment, "Captain..Cheesecake? Where'd you get a name like that?"
Jack scowled. It looked like someone had been reading files on him. Only one person gave him names like that and they would only have been in UNIT files. He'd have to talk to Ianto about this.
"It's Captain Jack Harkness," he clarified.
"Ooh," the man on the other end was very pleased. He spoke to someone in the background, "You're right, he sounds hot."
Jack smirked, ego swelling just a little bit. He knew someone replied on the other end but he couldn't make out the words. The man who was not Ianto chuckled deep, clear and full of glee and Jack found himself mildly aroused.
"Are you aware of the time Captain?" he was asked, all traces of humour suddenly gone.
Jack frowned, "Eleven o'clock."
"Oh," a pause. "well it's too bloody early today to be even awake."
"You sure you don't want to stay awake? I could make it worth your while," he wasn't in the mood to be sexy but he wanted to know what was going on.
The man laughed again, "Alright then Captain. Talk dirty to me."
Jack chuckled and there was the unmistakable voice of Ianto in the background demanding to know what the hell they were talking about. Jack just smiled as a struggle broke out between Ianto and the other man, Mordred he came to learn. He got up and left his office making his way to Tosh's station. She looked up at him curiously.
"Can you locate Ianto's phone?" he asked her. "It's important."
She hesitated before nodding and he returned to listening to the fight. It was typical fighting sounds, moans, groans and swear words but if Jack didn't know any better he'd swear they were shagging. He entertained the fantasy for a moment before realizing it was not as appealing as it would have been any other time. Something was definitely off with him. Jealousy and then unappealing fantasies? He might need a head check. The sounds were arousing though so at least he hadn't completely lost it.
"Still there Captain?" Mordred said suddenly.
"Forever and always," Jack replied earning him a look from Tosh. "You going to entertain me now?"
Tosh shook her head and showed him where Ianto's cell was activated. It was south of London by about fifty miles, completely out in the open with no major civilization around it. Jack frowned, wondering what Ianto was doing all the way out there.
"Are you there Cheesecake?"
Jack snapped out of his thoughts, "Don't call me that. There are other things you can call me though."
"I do adore calling you - shut up Ianto - Captain Cheesecake but if it puts you off so much," Mordred said with a sigh, "Whatever sexy."
Jack chuckled, "What's Ianto doing south of London?"
Mordred huffed, "Should have known you wanted phone sex with him." Jack could tell he was being playful though. Ianto protested loudly in the background and there was another struggle for the phone making him smirk. A look from Tosh made him put the conversation on speaker, drawing Owen and Gwen.
"Come...here you, arg - dammit," they heard Ianto growl then something shatter before Mordred laughed.
"Captain, my Captain come to my - ow! Bloody fuck -shit." Mordred exclaimed.
They heard the sound of the phone falling and a desperate struggle to get one up on the other. Jack found this quite entertaining to listen to and the others were just confused.
"Jack?" they heard Ianto's voice clearly, breathless. Jack had to struggle not to let that wash over him. He was still supposed to be angry but with Ianto making noises like that, how could he?
"Yes Ianto?" Jack asked amused.
"Not funny Sir. How can-" Ianto moaned, low and sinful. "Oh god Jack, I'm really going to have to call you back."
Before Jack could say anything the call ended and whatever Jack's suspicions had been before, they were most certainly confirmed. Ianto was with someone, and whether it was serious or not was out of the question because Ianto didn't do anything but serious. He went back to his office down hearted but not before making a comment about how arousing that had been.
"You're a sick man Harkness," Owen said in disgust. "I can't believe we heard Teaboy getting some."
"Are you jealous Owen?" Gwen teased and danced away with a laugh.
It was nice to know that at least someone found this amusing, Jack thought as he sat down at his desk and stared at his phone. What was he going to do now?
