Jack was pacing up and down in his office, only stopping occasionally to look out of the window towards the roller door. He looked at his watch, 8.30. Where was he? Ianto was never late. Jack knew he should have insisted he stay the night. They’d been out weevil hunting. Reports from the public said they’d seen two on the streets of Cardiff. They’d only found one, no matter how hard they’d looked they couldn’t find the other.
Resigning themselves to the fact that the other one had gone back down into the sewers, they’d brought the one back to the hub and left it in the cells to come around. Then they’d gone down into Jack’s quarters and made love to one another, slowly, sensually, until both had dozed off into a love filled sleep.
Ianto had woken at three in the morning and told Jack he was going home. Jack had tried to talk him out of it saying he would be better off staying. Ianto didn’t want to stay, not yet anyway. He was still worried what the others would say. Owen had already hinted about him being Jack’s part time shag and he didn’t want to give him more ammunition to constantly have a go.
Jack looked at his watch again, had it only been five minutes since the last time?
Tosh was concentrating on a spike she’d noticed on her workstation computer when Gwen went over to her “what’s wrong with Jack this morning? He’s done nothing but pace up and down as if he’s waiting for something to happen.”
“He is. Haven’t you realised who’s missing, who is usually here before any of the rest of us?”
“Oh, you mean Ianto?”
“Yeah, it’s not like him to be late.”
“I thought he was up in the Tourist Information Office, so didn’t really bother asking.”
“No, he’s not shown up yet, and Jack’s getting worried.”
“You two discussing the Captain’s part time shag then?”
“Owen, do you have to be so crude?”
“Well you’ve got to admit there’s something going on between them. I mean, look at Jack now. He looks as though he’s lost a fiver and found a penny.”
“Owen, he’d be just as worried about any of us if we were late.”
“But Tosh, he’s not sleeping with any of us.”
“Owen!”
“Yeah, I know, but….”
The roller door sounded, Jack stopped pacing and looked. He smiled when he saw Ianto come through it.
“Morning tea boy, you’re late. Jack’s been worried about you.”
“Don’t know what you mean Owen, anyway not my fault if there’s road works down my street and the blasted temporary lights fail to work.”
“You’d better go do whatever it is you do to our Captain to reassure him. Look.”
Ianto looked up and saw Jack watching him through the window. He nodded, Jack smiled and Ianto went up to see him.
“I’m sorry Jack, I….”
“Where have you been? I’ve been worried, I was thinking all sorts had happened to you.”
“Jack, please, can I explain?”
“I told you to stay last night. Now I’ve found you I don’t want to lose you.”
“Jack stop!” Jack looked at his young Welshman. “Cariad, I’m late because they’ve started digging the road up outside my house and the temporary traffic lights they’ve put up aren’t working properly. I couldn’t let you know, the police had been called as there was an argument brewing between a driver and a construction worker. I didn’t want a fine for using my phone whilst I was driving.”
“Yan….I’m sorry. I was thinking that other weevil had got you on your way home.”
“Hey Cariad, stop it. I’m not going anywhere. Besides I always carry a weevil spray with me. Best to be prepared for every eventuality.”
“Oh yeah, I’m prepared for that too.” Jack smiled as he pulled a hand out of his pocket holding a familiar container.
“Mmm I love your preparations better. Just wish the others weren’t watching, I’d kiss you.”
“Don’t let them worry you.”
“It’s not the girls, it’s….”
“Owen, yeah I know. I really must have words.”
“No Jack, don’t, please. You know what he’s like. It’ll only give him more ammunition.”
“Ok sweetheart I promise not to say anything if you promise me one thing?”
“Ok, what’s that?”
“You stay here tonight….please.” Jack batted his puppy dog eye look causing Ianto to react. “Mmm Yan I can see you’re seriously thinking about it!”
Ianto smiled, good job he had his back to the window, he gently palmed a hand over the front of his trousers.
“That’s my job Ianto Jones. I’ll help you sort that out later. But you haven’t answered me. Will you stay tonight?”
“Yes….yes Jack I’ll stay.”
“Great, Now….let’s not give them anything to gossip about, as much as I want to kiss you, I think coffee is needed.”
“Right, ten minutes then I’ll bring you one.”
“Thanks Yan.”
Ianto was making his way to the kitchen when Tosh shouted “You’d better come and see this Jack.”
Ianto followed Jack down to Tosh’s workstation. Owen and Gwen had joined them too.
“What is it Tosh?”
“I’ve been monitoring it for the last twenty minutes, wasn’t too bothered at first, only a very small blip, but this last five minutes it’s got bigger and louder. Look.” She pointed to a spike on her computer.
“Can you tell us where it’s coming from?”
“That’s the thing Jack, it keeps moving. One minute it’s in Bute Park then it’s over at the St David’s Hotel. Now it’s at the Millennium Centre.”
“Ok, keep watching, if it remains constant for longer than two or three minutes let me know. Ianto, Gwen, Owen, be ready to go if we have to.”
“I’m always ready Jack.”
“We know you are tea boy, but Jack didn’t mean for sex.”
“Owen!”
“Well you’ve got to admit, there’s something going on. Why would you be like a caged tiger pacing up and down this morning when our tea boy here was late.”
“Owen, we don’t discuss your private life, so….”
“Yeah, yeah.”
Ianto blushed and went off to make the coffee. Jack followed him making sure no one was looking he stood behind him and snaked his arms around Ianto’s waist.
“Don’t let what Owen says upset you. He’s just being, well, Owen.”
“I know Jack.” Ianto leant back into the embrace, feeling Jack’s steady breathing on his neck. “But what we have is special, between us. I….I don’t want to be part of the office gossip.”
“I know sweetheart, it’s easier said than done, but just try to ignore him. He’ll get fed up and leave us alone.”
“I hope so Jack.” He turned in Jack’s embrace, checked to see if anyone was looking, then quickly kissed him. “Just to keep you going until tonight Cariad.”
“Mmm, I can stand more of that, but I’ll wait. Now you’d better water the troops otherwise they’ll come looking for you.”
“Ok, I’ll bring yours into your office.” Jack smiled, kissed Ianto’s button nose then left him to produce coffee only Ianto was able to do.
As Ianto was depositing his friends coffee mugs on their desks he noticed Gwen and Owen had disappeared. “Hey Tosh where’s our acerbic medic and Gwen? They were complaining they hadn’t had their coffee fix, now it’s ready they’re not.”
“Sorry Ianto, not sure, I’ve been watching the monitor. Tell Jack whatever it was has disappeared. If it comes back he’ll be the first to know.”
“Ok.” Ianto disappeared to Jack’s office. He noticed he was on the phone so placed his mug on his desk and was about to leave when Jack stopped him with a wave of his hand.
“Yes Prime Minister….no, we’ve not heard anything….ok, as soon as I know you will too….thank you….yeah bye.” He hung up.
“Sorry Jack, didn’t realise it was the PM.”
“No that’s fine, he just wanted to know why UNIT have been seen in Cardiff. One of his cabinet was visiting last week and saw a couple of the team wandering around the St David’s. I’ve not heard anything, have you?”
“No Jack, sorry, but that reminds me, I left my cap here the other night. I was looking to put it away when I got home but couldn’t find it. You haven’t seen it have you?”
“Mmm not since you were wearing it when we were….”
“JACK, IANTO! You’d better get down here.”
“We’ll finish that conversation off later my love. We’d better see what Tosh wants.”
“Oh yeah, I remember….” They both ran down, Ianto grinning at the image he had of them in bed a few nights ago with the unit cap covering something other than his head.
“What you got for us Tosh?”
“It’s been constant for the last five minutes.”
“Ok, where are we talking about?”
“The Queen Street Shopping Centre. It looks as though it’s on the roof of the multi storey car park.”
“Ok, Ianto with me. Where’s Gwen and Owen, I told them to be ready.” Jack bellowed “GWEN, OWEN, get your arses in here now!”
The pair came running through from Autopsy, Owen looking a little dishevelled.
“What the hell have you two been doing? I told you to be ready.”
“Sorry Jack, needed Gwen’s help with a slippery creature that came into the Hub via the drains, wanted to know what it was. It turns out it’s only an eel, so sent it on its way.”
Owen looked at Gwen, “yeah Jack, slippery chap, but he’s gone now.” She hoped they were convincing.
“Right, so now you’re an expert on slippery creatures?”
“What….oh, erm, had an uncle who used to go fishing and took me with him sometimes, only thing he used to catch were eels, always threw them back.”
“Ok, we’ve got a constant reading at the Queen Street Shopping Centre, we need to go check it out. You two and Ianto are with me, Tosh keep monitoring in case our visitor decides to go sight-seeing.”
“Right Jack. Let me know what you find.”
“No worries Tosh. You kids ready?” They nodded. “Ianto in front with me, you can monitor it as well on your PDA. Owen, Gwen just make sure we have ammunition and tranquilisers ready, just in case.”
“How come tea boy gets to ride up front now?”
“Owen, when I want your medical help, I’ll let you ride in front with me. Stop pouting and do your job.”
“Yes Jack.” Owen watched as Ianto and Jack headed to the garage. “You think he knows?” he whispered.
“No, how could he? He’s too wrapped up in Ianto to notice what we’re doing.”
“Suppose, but that was close.”
“Yeah, and what’s with the slippery creature?”
“First thing I thought of, but you’ve got to admit, it can be slippery sometimes especially when you’ve….”
“You two coming or do we have to wait all day?”
“On our way Jack. You want to come later Gwen?” Owen smiled as they ran after the two men.
Arriving at the Queen Street Shopping Centre Ianto noticed part of it was boarded off. “Tosh, we may have a problem, where did you say our friend was?”
“Looks like it’s on top of a building or the multi storey, why?”
“Erm, not either as the multi storey’s currently being demolished and I can’t see anything on any of the buildings. There is a tower crane in the centre of the site, do you think it could be on that?”
“mmm not sure Ianto. I’ll send you the co-ordinates, maybe you can pinpoint it better your end.”
“Thanks Tosh, we’ll give it a shot.” Within a few seconds Ianto had the co-ordinates and was searching around the boarded up area. “Jack, our visitor seems to be in there.” He pointed inside the work area. “Any chance of us going in?”
“I’ll check. Mmm builders, now they’re a breed of their own. Knew one once, he was….well….”
“How well did you know him Jack?”
“Erm, well, I saw quite a bit of him for a while. Was never going to work though, he moved contracts all the time. Anyway I’ll just check around here.”
“Our Jack’s not short of a few stories is he Ianto?”
“You don’t believe everything he says do you Owen?”
“That depends.”
“On what?”
“On whether he’s going to start talking about you tea boy.”
“And why would he do that?”
“Oh, after seeing how he was pacing this morning….”
“Oi kids, you coming or what?” Jack had managed to find the site manager and gained access to the site.
Ianto scanned the area, but nothing was coming up on his PDA. “Tosh, you sure about those co-ordinates?”
“Yes Ianto, why?”
“I’m not getting anything here now, seems whatever it was has disappeared.”
“Hang on.” She checked her monitors again. “Sorry Ianto, it’s gone from here too.”
“Ok Tosh, I’ll let Jack know.”
“Let me know what?”
“Our visitor has disappeared again.”
“Oh, right, I’ve just been talking to the site manager who said when he arrived on site this morning, things had been moved.”
“Oh yeah, such as?”
“Well that JCB over there should have been near the offices and the hook on the tower crane was down when it should have been up.” Jack looked at Ianto raised his eyebrows and grinned.
“Jack, careful, Owen’s out for gossip.”
“Sorry, so want to kiss you, not had a proper one today yet.”
“I’ll make up for it later.”
“I’ll hold you to that Ianto Jones.”
“Oi, tea boy, you got anything showing up?”
Ianto raised his eyebrows which only Jack saw, “nope, not a thing, it’s gone again.”
“So can we go again? It’s bloody filthy on here.”
“You wouldn’t do to work on a building site would you? Now Ianto here in a hard hat, jeans and no shirt….”
“Oh please. I’ve not eaten today yet, don’t want that image thank you.”
Gwen whispered “but on you it would be nice.” And she walked off. Owen watched her and smiled.
“Sorry Ianto, you’ve got to admit though….”
“That’s ok Jack, mmm yeah only if you were in the same state of undress.” He smiled and walked off leaving Jack with the problem of his blood supply rushing southwards hoping no-one had seen.
They arrived back at the Hub frustrated that they hadn’t found anything remotely alien.
“Tosh keep an eye on that site, it may just come back. When it does I want it. Don’t like time wasters.”
“Hey Tosh, maybe you should keep an eye on the builders. There may be someone who’d take you to bed.”
“Owen, why does everything have to come down to your level? Not all of us think about sex all the time.”
“No Tosh, but you’ve got to admit, it’s always worth thinking about!”
“Hey….if we want a detailed description of your love life Owen, we’ll ask. Now….isn’t there something you should be getting on with down in Autopsy?”
“What? Oh….yeah.”
Jack went back to his office, he needed to follow up on the PM’s call about UNIT. Thinking about them brought the image of Ianto a couple of days ago lying on his bed downstairs just wearing his UNIT cap. He felt his stomach tighten and reactions begin below his waist. He went to sit down, his back to the main part of the Hub. Palming a hand over the front of his trousers he smiled to himself. He didn’t know how he’d got so lucky finding Ianto. No….wait, Ianto had found him.
He remembered the weevil in the woods and then Myfanwy in the warehouse. How he’d wanted to kiss the Welshman when he’d landed on him and rolled out of the way of the pteranodon. He suddenly realised he still had his hand pressing down on the arousal that was straining against his trousers. Looking down into the Hub he hoped no-one was watching. He saw Ianto looking up and motioned for him to join him in the office. No, on second thoughts too exposed. There was a part of the archives that the CCTV didn’t reach.
“Ianto!” He shouted down. “I really need that file from 1964 about UNIT. Haven’t seen it have you?”
“Not for a while Sir. It’s in the archives.”
“Right, I need you to find it for me if you go down there, I’ll join you with the exact file I need.” He smiled.
“Ok Sir, no problem.”
Ianto made his way down and minutes later was joined by Jack. “What’s so urgent Cariad?”
“I have a slight problem.” He grabbed Ianto, pulled him towards the blind spot and placed Ianto’s hand over his arousal. “And only you can sort it out for me as you’re the expert down here.” He grinned then pulled him in for a passionate kiss.
“Mmm Cariad, you’ve come to the right person.”
“Not yet I haven’t, but give me a few minutes and I will.” Jack grinned wickedly.
Ianto reached for the fastenings on Jack’s trousers, glancing over his shoulder to make sure he was out of sight of the cameras.
“No one can see us here my love.”
Ianto knelt down in front of Jack and as he did so he pushed down the trousers and Jack’s underwear, releasing Jack from the constraints of the fabric. Jack moaned as Ianto took his time kissing the length and licking the already wet tip.
“Nngh….so….good….”
Ianto reached up and gripped Jack’s hips, Jack steadying himself against the wall and placing his hands on Ianto’s shoulders. Ianto kissed and nipped his lover and slowly took him into his mouth, scraping his teeth along the length as he went.
“Aargh….Yan!”
Jack’s fingers dug into Ianto’s shoulders and if he hadn’t been wearing a shirt and waistcoat Jack would have left red marks.
Ianto’s grip on Jack’s hips helped to push Jack further into him, and relaxing his throat more of Jack descended down into him. Ianto couldn’t believe how good this felt. Moving up and down his lover Ianto scraped his teeth along it and then licked as if to make it better. Sucking and hollowing his cheeks their rhythm built until Jack couldn’t hold on any longer.
“Going….to….come….Aargh Yan!”
Ianto smiled around Jack as he felt the warm liquid seep into his every being. Releasing Jack with a final nip, Ianto stood and kissed his Captain. Jack tasting himself on his young lovers tongue and in his mouth.
“You ok Yan?”
“Mmm I am now Cariad.”
“I love you Ianto Jones.”
“And I love you too Jack.”
“That’s why I don’t want anything happening to you, and why I want you to move in with me. I’ve had enough of losing people I love, I want to be with you until you grow old.”
“Oh Jack, I can’t move in, not yet. Besides it’s too small down in your bunk. We’d only get in each others’ way.”
“Will you at least think about it?”
“Yes, I’ll think about it. Now Captain isn’t there something you need to sort out now?” He took Jack’s hand and placed it over the front of his trousers, Jack feeling an instant reaction when he did.
“Well Mr Jones, it appears you now have too many clothes on.”
“JACK! IANTO! GWEN! OWEN! We have a visitor back.” Tosh’s voice came over the comms.
“Shit! Sorry Yan, this is gonna have to wait until later.” Jack quickly doing his zip up and making sure the reaction was not noticeable.
Ianto moaned, “I’ll make sure you sort it out, don’t worry. Now we had better go see where our friend is this time.”
“Tosh what have you got for me?”
“It’s back at the building site again, I’ve been watching it for the last five minutes and it hasn’t moved. I think it could be asleep.”
“Ok, Ianto, with me. Tosh keep your eyes on it. Gwen, Owen can you wait here, if we need you I’ll shout.”
“But what if it’s hostile Jack? Shouldn’t we come just in case?”
“Owen, Ianto and I are capable of seeing whether it’s hostile or not. Besides if it moves to a different location, you two can go there and we’ll follow. We need to keep all bases covered.”
“If you’re certain?”
“Yeah Gwen, I am. Right Ianto you ready?” Ianto nodded “take these to the SUV, I’ll be there in one minute. Gwen help me with these please.”
Gwen took the containment box and followed Jack. But before they got to the SUV Jack stopped.
“What’s wrong Jack?”
“Word of advice Gwen.” She looked at him confused “if you’re going to screw the Doctor do it on your own time not works. And if it’s going to carry on you had better make sure Rhys doesn’t find out.”
“You can talk, what about you and Ianto? You’re….”
“Hey, Gwen, he’s single, so am I and we don’t let it interfere with our work. All I’m saying is….be careful.”
“Erm….yeah, ok Jack. Sorry”
He nodded and left to go find Ianto and their alien friend. “You ok cariad?”
“Yeah, I am now.” He leant across and kissed Ianto “Come on then let’s go see who or what has taken up residence on the building site.”
Gwen went back to Owen and Tosh. “Owen, can I have a word?”
“Sure, what’s wrong?”
“Privately please.” She went up to the kitchen.
“Gwen, what’s happened?”
“Jack knows.”
“Knows what?”
“About us.”
“So, he can’t say much not when he’s shagging tea boy.”
“No, listen, he says if we’re going to carry on we had better make sure Rhys never finds out. And that we do it in our own time, not at work.”
“So he’s saying it’s ok?”
“NO!....sorry, no, he’s just letting us know that he knows and that we should be more careful.”
“Do you want to cool it then? Is that what you’re saying?”
“No, I’m saying I need what we have, I can’t talk to Rhys about work, he wouldn’t understand. But we can’t do it here.”
“We can go to mine then, you know, after work.”
“Yeah….ok.”
“Gwen, Owen! It’s on the move again. It’s heading for the Bay, can you go check for me?”
“Sure Tosh, on our way.” They left taking another containment box with them.
