The Torchwood Files

Gwen and Owen

Gwen rolled around in a bed that she was all to comfortable with. She smiled in her semi-conscious sleep as she smelled the wonderful smell of her boyfriend, Doctor Owen Harper. It had been 5 months since Rhys decided that he didn't love Gwen anymore. After that she moved in with Owen knowing she loved Owen the moment they laid eyes on each other. Ever since the snog with Owen that day the Cyberwoman was let loose and then after seeing what a whole village of crazies can do and they gave into their desires they became a couple.

5 months ago

Gwen smiled as she returned from work early to spend the night with Rhys. She put her key in the door and opened it up only to find Rhys standing there with a bag at his side.

"I packed your stuff up…well some of it…you can come back later to get the rest…" Rhys stated almost robot like. His eyes were puffy and red. His arms at his sides. Dark circles under his eyes as he tossed the bag of clothes at Gwen.

"Rhys…what are you doing?" She looked up in enough time to catch the bag and put it on the floor. "I came home early…and this is what I get?"

Rhys shook his head. "I see you everyday Gwen come home all tired and worn out and then you change and are gone again. You have no time for me in your Torchwood life and I can already see you're getting bored with me."

She shook her head. "Rhys…" Tears were trailing down her cheeks. "That's not true…"

"Don't lie Gwen… I've seen the way you look at Jack……or Owen…….I know that Im not good enough for your life anymore…" Rhys started to shake a little. "Ill leave you to getting the rest of your stuff…." With that, Rhys left the flat and drove off into the night leaving Gwen.

Gwen knew he was right. She had fallen in love with Owen but it all hurt just the same. Gwen put her head in her shaking pale hands. She let out a loud sob before she just broke down crying.

Owen, on the other hand, heard everything because she left her comm on. Owen was parked on the corner watching everything, he knew something was up because she was way to happy. They had been seeing each other off and on but this was the day he knew she was going to end it. He got out of his car seeing Rhys race off and ran to the loft. He walked in to see a hysterical Gwen on the floor. "Gwen…" He pulled her into his embrace with a sad smile on. "Your knight and shining armor is here…"

She shook her head softly as a slight smile came across her face. "You're a wanker you know that?" She stifled a grin as he scooped her up in his arms and took the bag putting it on his back.

"My place?" She nodded softly and hugged him as he carried her to his car. She sighed softly as she turned and planted a gentle soft kiss on his lips. He smiled and put her in the front seat.

"Thank you…" He nodded and got in driving to his loft.

She looked over to see him watching her sleep. "How long have you been up?" She smiled softly but blushed. She didn't take Owen as the person who would sit and watch someone he loved sleep.

"Not long…you just looked so peaceful I didn't want to wake you…" He smiled at her and leaned down kissing her softly. "I love you…" He whispered.

Gwen blushed but it immediately stopped when she heard the words she had been waiting to hear. He said the three little words that meant so much to her. "I love you too Owen Harper…" They both grinned and locked in a kiss that turned into a snog.

"So, Shower?" She laughed and nodded softly as she got up and walked with him to the shower. She turned on the water letting it get steamy before she did anything. They both stripped down and stepped into the steaming glass box.

There wasn't much to the shower, innocent touching and scrubbing because Gwen was just to tired to do anything else. Owen smiled as he stepped out first to run and make coffee but as he ran he slipped and slid across the floor into the bookshelf having it fall on him. Gwen heard the yell and came out laughing.

"What the hell Owen?" She smirked as she tried to keep from laughing at the sight in front of her. Owen was naked with about a hundred books strewn around him and on him, mostly medical books. She bent down and tried to help him up but he pulled her into him.

"Fancy a snog?" They both laughed and kissed each other softly.
