Guilt: Redux - Epilogue
Title: Guilt: Redux
Fandom: Torchwood
Pairings: Jack/Ianto, references to Ianto/Lisa
Rating: PG-13
Disclaimer: If I was the one who owned Torchwood, you think I'd admit it now?
Spoilers: Some information and events from s1,2. NONE for s3.
Summary: Ianto knows he should be happy. He has his work and he has Lisa. Again. Finally. He knows he should be happy.
Author's Note: Alternate ending to Guilt - events of Guilt up to around ch50 take place. This picks up many months later... (There's a short recap of 'what you NEED to know from Guilt' before chapter one, if you haven't read it)
Thanks to: My lovely beta cazmalfoy, angelzbabe1989 for idea bouncing, and morbid_sparks for cheerleading even when she doesn't know what happens in this...

Epilogue
Ianto wiped a bead of sweat from his forehead as Jack came through the door with another box.
“Why did you have to pick the hottest damn day of the year to move?” he complained to Lisa, who was sitting on her new bed and methodically unpacking the boxes as Ianto and Jack brought them in.
“Luck?” she suggested, shrugging with a slight smile.
“That’s the last of them,” Jack sighed, dropping the box on top of a pile and breathing heavily. “Remind me never to offer to help anyone move house again.”
“I don’t think you actually offered this time,” Ianto said. “We weren’t given a choice.”
“You both promised to be there for me whatever I needed,” Lisa reminded them. “And today, I needed heavy lifting done.”
“Yeah, yeah, we know,” Ianto said, pulling her to her feet for a hug. “And it still stands. Just as long as the next thing doesn’t involve carrying heavy things up several flights of stairs.”
“Oh, you,” Lisa grinned, shouldering him.
Jack wrapped his arms around the both of them. “Just because you’ve moved out doesn’t mean you get to skip out on dinner-and-movie nights,” he warned. “Even try it and you might find two cranky men on your doorstep demanding food and Johnny Depp.”
“You’re going to miss my Johnny DVDs almost as much as you will me, aren’t you?” Lisa asked with a mock-disappointed expression.
“Absolutely,” Jack said, holding them tighter. “Absolutely.”
The End
Thanks to everyone who has come along for this little ride with me - the 'proper' sequel to Guilt begins on 5th January!
