A/N- Ianto was too calm when Jack woke up from being shot in End of Days, this is why I think he was so calm…
Disclaimer- if I owned Torchwood, no one would see Gareth or John again x
Way One-
Ianto knocked on Jack's office door, causing Jack to look up from his paperwork. It was shortly after Ianto had been hired by Torchwood 3, so he was slightly nervous about what he was going to ask of his new boss.
"Ummm…. Sir?"
"Yes, Ianto?" Jack asked, smiling, his eyes glinting cheekily. Ianto felt slightly less nervous.
"Wh- when I worked in London…" Ianto paused as he saw Jack become more interested, "They… well, they had quite, umm, extensive records about you…" Jack's eyes become slightly blank, shutting out Ianto.
"Yes?"
"I-I read one and it had an interesting story in it… and I was wondering if it was true."
Jack smiled faintly, his eyes still carefully blank. "Which one?"
"It said you couldn't die, sir." Jack's slight smile faded and he stared up at Ianto, not meeting his eyes. "That couldn't be true though could it, sir?"
"Anything's possible with Torchwood, Ianto." Jack dodged answering the question.
"So, is it true, or not?" Ianto almost missed the small nod Jack made at the word true.
"You're not going to let this go, are you, Ianto?"
"No, sir."
"Why do you want to know?"
"I," Ianto looked down embarrassed, "I wanted to make sure that all the files we have are correct, sir."
"Well, immortality is impossible, isn't it, Ianto?" Jack asked, almost challenging him to disagree.
"Alright then, sir. Coffee?"
"Yes please, Ianto." Jack looked back to his paperwork as Ianto left the office, "Then again," Ianto turned back "I always was an impossible thing." Jack grinned at Ianto, who turned back towards the main hub, a faint look of shock on his face.
