Hey everyone. This is my first Fan Fic so I'm sorry if it's rubbish.

Chapter 1
Ianto walked into the Hub. Looking around he couldn't see Jack anywhere. 'Jack?' he called. No reply. Ianto thought he was probably sleeping. Thinking about it, it didn't seem as if it would be the truth as Ianto (who had slept with Jack on a number of occasions) knew Jack slept very little, he was also a light sleeper so wouldn't the alarms have woken Jack up from his slumbers? Ianto went to Jack's little room he had, thinking of how he would wake the older man.
Ianto soon realised he would not need to wake Jack. Jack wasn't there. The bed was made which meant it had not been slept in – Jack was not one for making beds. Ianto went to Jack's office and sat at his desk. There sat an envelope with Ianto's name written in Jack's perfect writing. Ianto wearily opened it, hoping that it would be the complete opposite of what his instinct said it was. He read the note and tears fell from his eyes.
Ianto
By the time you read this I will be gone. I found my Doctor again, I hope that this time, he will be able to fix me. I know that i promised I wouldn't leave again but please understand that this is something I have waited for for so long! Just know this, I love you. I have for a long time and I have never had the courage to tell you. I love you now and I will always love you. Please take care of yourself and Torchwood.
Jack
Ianto sat there on the sofa for a while. Thoughts running through his mind. When did Jack go? Why did he tell him he loved him on paper? Why has he never told Ianto he loved him before? How long was he going to be gone and why did he ask him to take care of Torchwood? Surely that was Gwen's job after all, she was second-in-command. There were only two of them now. Since Tosh and Owen died there had not been any new recruits. Jack was planning on bringing in a new medic and someone smart enough to understand Tosh's complex computer system and update it – none of the team could understand it very well. Ianto was so lost in his thoughts he didn't even notice the alarms sound that would let him know Gwen was entering. He didn't even hear he speak at first until he felt a hand on his shoulder. 'Ianto, where's Jack?' Gwen asked him. All Ianto could manage was 'Gone'. He felt another tear escape his eye and soon he was sobbing in Gwen's arms. 'He promised he wouldn't leave again. He told me he loved me in that letter' he handed the letter to Gwen and she read it. They sat there for a while, silent, until Gwen spoke. 'Well we better get some new recruits then', she smiled gently at Ianto, 'after all we just about managed with three of us, now there's two of us we need more people'. Ianto smiled back and agreed.
