A/N- Hope you guys enjoy the first chapter, please review. Reviews make my day!
11:00pm Tuesday
Ok, so Jack's at a UNIT conference, Tosh's at home hacking into her neighbours computers, Gwen's with her fiancé celebrating their engagement and Owen's at a bar somewhere getting pissed which leaves me all alone in the hub with only the pterodactyl and the weevils to keep me company. Bloody brilliant!
I could just leave... no, wait, what if the rift goes berserk and the world ends; then it'll all be my fault. Damn rift.
Wow, I never realised just how boring a secret alien base could be, now what can I do to amuse myself until Tosh comes in, in 7 hours time? I could sing a song... No, terrible idea! Owen will find it on the CCTV and tease me about it relentlessly for months to come. I'll sit on the sofa and I'm sure that a good way to pass the time will fly into my head.
11:30pm Tuesday
Well nothing's flown into my head, I may as well sing. Now what should I sing? I could just sing the first thing that comes into my head I guess... "Lonely, I am so lonely; I have nobody to call my owwwn. So lonely, I'm mister lonely; I have nobody to call my owwwn. Oh so lonely"
Actually, that's not helping!
12:00am Wednesday
I spy with my little eye something beginning with 'H'...
Is it 'Hub'?
Of course it is; you know all the answers because you're playing with yourself you sad loser!
I spy with my little eye something beginning with 'W'...
12:30am Wednesday
'Ring Ring' Hurrah, my mobile's ringing! I wonder who's calling me at this time of night...
hmm... that's odd, 'withheld number' Oh well, lets answer it anyway. Anything to relieve me of this boredom!
"Hello"
"Ianto? It's me, Drew"
"Drew? I haven't seen you since college. How'd you get my number"
"You're in the phonebook idiot" Fuck!
"Oh, I see. So um have you phoned for a particular reason or...?"
"Actually I've been meaning to get hold of you for some time, you see Albert's thinking of offering you a Job" Albert's ALWAYS thinking of offering me a job! Why can't he just leave me alone for once in his life?
"Actually, I'm quite happy with the job I've got now so I'm going to have to decline" Again.
"Oh, right well I should probably go now. See ya Yan" Yan? Seriously? I'm not 16 anymore you know!
"Ok, good speaking to you again Drew. Bye"
Note to self; Get BT to take me out of the phonebook!
1:00am Wednesday

Zzz Zzz Zzz Zzz...AAAGH! Why the hell did I just dream about giant purple bobs with top hats and briefcases taking over the universe one coffee shop at a time?
2:05am Wednesday
OH MY GOD!!! I've not had coffee in over three hours!?! How on earth am I still breathing?
I seriously need my caffeine fix, to the coffee machine we go.
Ooooh... just smelling those coffee beans, is making me feel better.

Drew has entered the conversation
Ianto has entered the conversation
Ianto: How on earth did you get my MSN?
Drew: I work for Albert, yan!
Ianto: Is he STILL trying to get me to work for UNIT?
Drew: You know he is. He's never gunna give up so you may as well give in.
Ianto: You know I'm not going to; I'm better than that.
Drew: You work for TORCHWOOD! You're not even gunna make it to 30
Drew: Stop living in your fantasy world and actually take a look at the danger around you.
Ianto: I haven't seen you in almost 10 years, you have no idea what's going on in my life right now!
Ianto: Stop contacting me and tell Albert to leave me alone.
Drew: I can't do that yan, I wish I could but I just can't!
Ianto: What? Why not?
Drew has left the conversation Crap!
3:00am Wednesday
Hmmm... Wonder if I can convince Drew too give me a UNIT cap? After all Jack does say red is my colour!
No, wait. I want Drew out of my life, asking him for a cap won't achieve that.
3:10am Wednesday
Oooh... just thinking of what Jack could do to me in that cap...
No! Ianto stop. The rift alert could go off at any time.
Oh how I hate the godamn rift!!!
