A new era

Chapter 1

Tosh was running another scan on some alien artifact she had found. Owen was in his autopsy bay dissecting some sort of alien from a far away planet. Gwen was at her station filling out some forms, or at least pretending to. Ianto was where he spent most of his time, at the coffee machine, and Jack was in his office on the phone to UNIT, getting increasingly annoyed every second, he didn't know how much longer he could last listening to the man on the other end lecture him on how to do his job. That job he'd been doing for decades...

He stood up and sighed, then walked to his glass wall over looking the hub, he could see Tosh working her self to death, Owen get covered in yucky alien guts and Gwen...well he didn't quite know who Gwen thought she was fooling.
Then he saw Ianto. His Ianto.

He carried a tray of steaming hot coffee to his fellow co workers and handed them each their mug along with a brilliant smile. Jack grinned as he saw there was one cup left to be claimed. He hurried back to his desk and before the UNIT man on the other end had any time to try and call for Jacks attention the phone was put down. He sat down on his chair, straightened out his collar and put his feet up on his desk and prepared him self for his favorite welsh man to knock.

As if on Que, Jacks door was lightly tapped 4 times. Jack quickly grabbed a file of his desk to try and look busy and casual.
''Come in''
The door then opened and Ianto walked in wearing his red shirt, Jacks favorite on him, he was carrying a cup of coffee.
''I bring coffee!'' Ianto flashed a brilliant smile.
''You're a life saver!...a sexy one'' Jack added the end with a cheeky grin.
Ianto chuckled, flushed and set the mug on Jacks desk then flicked his leg, hinting at him to get his feet down.

''Anything you need sir?'' Ianto asked innocently,while Jack placed his boots on the floor.
''You.'' Jack replied bluntly, swiveling in his chair to face his tea-boy.
Ianto's heart skipped a beat. No. Didn't he mean it like that. Jack just wants sex. He looked at the floor and laughed nervously. Jack stared at the Welshman confused, but in awe. He looked so cute and vulnerable.

''Come on a date with me tonight Ianto'' Jack felt like punching him self before he'd even finished the sentence He wasn't even sure why he said it...It was just when he looked at Ianto he felt something he hadn't felt in a long time.
''Sorry, what?'' Ianto wasn't sure if he'd heard the captain right. He's asked before when John Hart had came but after all the drama they never actually ended up going out together...Ianto thought it best to forget Jack had ever asked him.

"Well I was just thinking, we never got a chance when I first asked you...and I would still like too. Quiet alot actually. If you would lke to we could go see a movie..get some dinner..'' Jack was trailing off now, he didn't really know what to say. It was so easy to get people into bed, not that he had gotten with anyone else since that first time with Ianto, but this was different. They were actually going on a date. He hoped so anyway.

Breath Ianto. breath ...but actually say something you idiot don't just stand there like a lemon! Ianto had never seen Jack like this for, not knowing what to say. He would almost go as far to say he saw a blush on his cheeks. Just play it cool Ianto.
''Yeah okay. Yeah i'd like that alot.'' It took everything the tea-boy had not to jump his boss there and then.
