Summary: Concurrent Companion Fic to "With A Wish And A Giggle" – The Doctor is longing for his Omega, his mate. But presently, Jack is in love with Ianto and completely unaware of what his future with the Doctor is supposed to be. As it should be according to the timelines, and timelines are law. So he's longing but patiently waiting for the day his mate finally comes home. Until Amy's desperate action to get them together threatens to send the entire universe into a tailspin. Oh boy, this could awkward.
A/N: This is the start of the companion story (or through line if you want to get all technical) to my other Jack/Ianto story "With A Wish And A Giggle." It will run concurrently with the other story, and I would just add this into the other one but as I started this I realized it needed to be separate. You should read both stories together if you want to truly understand what's going in this verse, but this story's main pairing is Jack/Doctor (AKA Jade/Doctor). Just FYI. As far as when this falls in the show, I would say somewhere directly after "The Big Bang," but not quite to "The Impossible Astronaut."

Prologue
"Dryjiefta, alpha," a velvety baritone said into his ear in a breathy whisper.
The Doctor froze in the middle of his repair, feelings as though every nerve ending was suddenly awake and alive all at once. He shivered while slowly turning to face the owner of that all too familiar voice.
"Jade. Dryjiefta," he responded reaching forward to cup the honey kissed cheek in front of him. "It's good to see you, mhuirnín."
It had been over a year since he last saw his future mate, and he had spent that whole time doing his very best to keep himself from dwelling on him too much. He knows he's been failing miserably, especially since his bright little redheaded companion seems to be onto him. She's always whispering to Rory as if she doesn't know he can hear her about the little tics and tells he has. Would be bloody annoying if he had the urge to care.
Jade took his hand from his face gently and kissed the back of it with a deeply bowed head: the perfect show of submission and respect. It warmed both of his hearts as well set fire to his veins, placing naughty images in his mind of his Omega and Gallifreyan satin sheets and lover's knot restraints.
But the Doctor knew his Omega well enough to know this wasn't a social call. His posture was far too stiff, his behavior far too formal…something was wrong. His Jade would only be acting this way with him if he needed something or was afraid.
He steps forward and lifts the still bowed chin up so he can look deep into the fathomless ocean blue eyes that never fail to cancel out his respiratory bypass. "I know you didn't just come here to make it impossible not take you to my room and fuck the daylights out of you, so what is it dja'ykdieu? What have you come to tell me?"
The beautiful blush that spread across the flawless cheeks. "I love it when you speak to me in Boeshani," he says sincerely. "But I am here to warn you, alpha.
The Doctor sighed and nodded. Taking Jade's hand, he led him away from the consul room and to his personal quarters. "How are you, Jade?" he asks him curiously.
Jade smiles over at him happily, squeezing his hand, "I'm alright, alpha. Better than alright, actually."
"Oh?"
A fainter blush than the one before colors his face again. "I'm – uh…we're pregnant," he tells him meekly.
This almost stops the Time Lord in his tracks. Looking over at his future Omega with wide eyes and gasping slightly, he forces a smile on his face and trying not to show how jealous he was.
"Really?" he asks as they reach the door. "That's great news."
Jade's face was far too knowing. "You could sound a little more excited about it. You're going to be a father."
He swallowed, "Not me. Not right now at least. Future me is."
"Still you, doofus," Jade sighed, stepping up to his alpha with a small smile. "We've had this discussion many times, mhuirnín."
The Time Lord waves him off as he opens the door and ushers him inside. "I don't need a lesson in timelines and paradoxes, Jade," he chides softly and closes the door. Watching as his lover sits on the edge of his four-poster hand carved bed like he owns made him swallow thickly in growing arousal. "I feel lucky enough that I'm allowed to know as much as I do. That I'm allowed to know – "
Goddamn.
Jade was slowly unbuttoning his shirt with a small, flirty smirk.
"That I'm allowed to – "
Okay. Shirt gone and no white t-shirt underneath, and that fucking infuriating lecherous grin. Bloody hell, but his mate was gorgeous wasn't he? Clearing his throat and fighting to regain composure, Doctor attempted and failed a scowl.
"What did I say before? Tell me what you're really here for before we – " oh Christ there's goes the trousers. "Jade!" he practically whined.
"Yes, alpha?" the other man replied innocently, making sure to bend completely over to pull his boots and trousers off.
'His bum is still perfect. So round and perfect, begging for a cock – my cock – to be in it. Buggering it while it milks your cum from you. Fuck he's probably already dripping wet. His hormones are making his body even more sensitive too. Smells so good, he's so fertile,' he thought absently and then shook it away violently. "No. No, no, no," he mutters to himself with a little growl and distinctly ignoring the answering smile he got from his partner by the bed. "Now that's enough of that until you tell me what you're doing here."
After Jade was completely naked he lounged back on the red silken sheets, making sure his alpha was watching every second of it. "Now where would the fun be in that? Make me stop."
The Doctor's eyes narrowed and his lips thinned, his inner alpha not liking to be challenged. Marching up to Jade he lifted his legs and back of the mattress and swatted his ass.
"Oh!" Jade calls out in surprise with a little giggle. "Feels good in every timeline," he chuckles. He licks his lips as his body is dropped back on the bed. "Do it again!"
"No," the impatient man tells him seriously, tone brooking no argument. "You are going to tell me, what you're doing here."
Jade cast his eyes down submissively. "Alpha, lajua I'iem," he tells him dutifully.
The other man smiled down at his mate. "There's my good boy."
Grin coming back a little, Jade nodded before speaking. "A mistake is going to be made soon. One that could derail a lot of people's lives, and not just our own. But you need to let it happen."
Incredulous, the Doctor began removing his bow tie. "I need to let the mortal coil unravel? I don't think so."
Jade huffs, "No, alpha." His little headshake made the Doctor force himself to refrain from laughing at just how cute the action was. "You need to let the mistake happen. You need to let it all play out. It's important. And then you can fix it."
"Right," he says slowly, processing. "And it is safe to assume this mistake will have something to do with you."
Jade nodded. "I can't give you all of the details. Those you have to figure out on your own, but it's imperative this happens. Otherwise my relationship with Ianto wouldn't have – won't – gah!" he growls. "No matter how old you get tenses never get any easier. My relationship with Ianto won't develop like it's supposed to if you don't."
Finding a pout beginning to spread across his face, the Doctor sighed. "Well we don't want to throw anything off course…even if it will be hard to be around when you were all over him."
His omega's face grew soft as he reached up to stroke his alpha's face. "What I felt for him has nothing to do with how I feel for you. Two completely separate things. But it will mess you and me up too if this doesn't happen."
"What else will happen? Why are you afraid I won't let it?"
Jade bit his lip nervously. Haltingly, he replied, "Things will get a bit…hairy…around here and there…and everywhere for a bit."
Brow furrowed he asked, "End of existence, hairy? Or literally hairy."
"First one?"
With a snort, "Is that a question?"
Jade shrugged and reached up to begin unbuttoning his alpha's buttons.
He wiped his face and blew out a breath. "Anything else you can tell me?"
"You'll see the side effects long before you know the cause. You'll need to go to Cardiff 2007. You'll be able to track the energy signature to the exact date. But you need to get Torchwood to allow you to help. Especially with me. I won't be…myself exactly."
When the Doctor started to ask another question, Jade put a finger to his lips. "That's all I can say."
He nodded and leaned over his boy, Jade grinned up at him. He knew it was irrational, but he was damn jealous of his future self. Waking up to this delightful face every morning. Having kids and a family with Jade…getting to make kids and a family with Jade. He wished with both his hearts that time was here now.
Not in some distant future that he wasn't allowed to know when exactly.
As if sensing his thoughts, the omega threaded his fingers through his hair and pulled so his body laid more fully on top him. "Soon, alpha," he whispered hotly in his ear. "Sooner than you think. Trust me."
The Doctor nodded and rubbed his nose into the omega's throat, inhaling the musky scent of him. No matter how long they were apart or how old he is, Jack – his ykdieu – always smelled the exact same.
"The thing I told you when I came to you the first time, do you remember it?" Jack asked with a little gasp from the little nip to his shoulder blade.
The Time Lord snorted. "Course I do."
Jack grabbed his head and forced head up to look into his alpha's eyes. "Tell me. What was it so I know for sure you know."
"Potorango ke'fadess I'iem 'n huama jun gasza," the Doctor whispered.
Jack stared up into his alpha's eyes and nodded. Whispering as well, he said, "Ki'vo'et jen molfre'ku gasza kelfp, ykdia?"
Groaning, the Doctor fused his mouth over Jade's possessively. He reveled in the whimper he got in return. There wasn't much said after he finished getting himself undressed and slipped into the wet channel so sweetly offered to him. Not much needed to be.
