Title: The First Kiss
Timeline: It takes place approximately after one week after "Cyberwoman." I found a timeline online and according to the timeline the episode was set on August 2006 but we don't know what date. Ianto's birthday is on August 19th, and thus I made "Cyberwoman" one week before Ianto's birthday in August. He would be turning twenty-four in this story. According to an online source, Jack made Ianto suspended for a month and so, his on suspension in this story during his birthday.
Summary: Ianto is alone on his birthday after the death of Lisa, but will someone visit and cheer him up?
Disclaimer: I do not owe Torchwood!
Author's Note: I gotten this idea after I printed out the timeline and saw that the date of "Cyberwoman" is in August and thus Ianto's birthday is on August so I put two and two together. NO FLAMES!
It's been one week since Ianto had lost Lisa. When Ianto had arrived at work the next day after the killing of Lisa a.k.a. cyberman, Jack told him that he was on suspension for a month and thus made Ianto useless during that one week. However, ever since Torchwood London have been destroyed, it took him about three weeks to locate a new place in Cardiff and then a day to move his belongings to his new apartment. However ever since Gwen joined Torchwood, he hadn't had the time to unpack his stuff as Torchwood had been busy and he had been busy taking care of Lisa.
Now that had all gone down the drain. It was also his birthday No one knew about his birthday except his sister's family, and now Jack. He hadn't spoken to his sister since he had been recruited to Torchwood 1 and he wasn't going to do now. Not unless it was something important or something important for the job. Usually when it was his birthday, he and Lisa would either go out and have dinner and a movie or just stay at someone's flat and either have dinner and a movie or even snog for awhile. Now that was all gone. He was alone to spend his birthday. He was turning twenty-four that day also.
Now that all changed, he begun unpacking his stuff so that he wouldn't have to worry about it one day when he goes back to work for Torchwood. It hurts to let Lisa go. Lisa was his life and no one knew except him that he was going to ask Lisa to marry him when he turns the big twenty-five next year. He had it all planned. Now that all had gone down the drain thanks to Yvonne Hartman for doing that Ghost Machine Project. And worst of all, the second time he met Jack during that night in the warehouse, he had wanted to kiss him as he stared down at his gorgeous eyes that was also staring at him as both have erection's that were pressing against each other's thigh in a rather hard-on position. Ianto felt so guilty during that night that he cried during the way home and once he had gotten home he couldn't stop. He never felt attracted to another man before. He was always loyal to Lisa and he had betrayed her.
It took a minute to realize for Ianto that he had stopped packing and was sitting on the sofa in the living room as he felt tears dropping down from his eyes. All that thinking about what he and Lisa would be doing right now was making him upset and he needed a drink. A strong one. He considered of going to the nearby pub, but he didn't want to go in this condition. He heard the door opening to his flat as he turned to his side and saw Jack coming inside casually. Ianto's tears have stopped flowing down as his eyes were now in shock but he also felt another feeling inside him and he thought it may be happiness.
"How did you get in?" Ianto asked as he tries not to choke on his words so that it wouldn't be obvious to Jack that he was crying just now.
Jack stared at him as if he was searching for something within him. "I got keys to all of my employee's flat," he answered as he walked towards the couch and sat beside Ianto whom immediately stood up. Jack raised an eyebrow at him.
"Do you want coffee? I could make coffee," Ianto said quickly and he was about to go to the kitchen as Jack's voice stopped him.
"I don't want coffee, Ianto. I just came by to see how you were doing," Jack explained.
Ianto stared at him as Jack patted the seat next to him and Ianto hesitated before seating back down next to him again. "Shouldn't you be at the Hub, sir?" He asked as he stared at the floor and wasn't staring at Jack.
"I left Owen in charge for the time being because I wanted to see how you were doing," Jack said with a small smile, "also I wanted to wish you a happy birthday," he added.
Ianto looked at him and it was as if time have stopped as neither spoke and suddenly Ianto broke down in sobs as Jack held him against his chest and arms as he patted against his back for comfort. Jack soothes him with soothing words as Ianto tries to calm down. "It hurts Jack," he said softly but yet enough for Jack to hear him, "I miss her and I keep thinking about what she and I would be doing right now in my flat back at London. I love her too much Jack," he admitted.
"I know you do, Ianto. It will take time but you will get through this. I will help you through this," Jack said confidently.
"What if I don't? What if I don't get through this?" Ianto asked as he looked at him.
"You will Ianto. You will get through this and I will help you," Jack said again and he looked him in the eyes and without any more saying, he leaned forward and kissed Ianto with a kiss that was filled with feelings that he have felt for the young man since the night at the warehouse.
Ianto responded back and a minute had gone by and the two needed air to breathe as the kiss ended and the two had their foreheads pressed against each other. "Come to bed with me, Jack," he said boldly as he didn't want to spend another night alone in his flat. He was still feeling uneasy about being with another man, but he needed Jack at the moment and he didn't want to think about Lisa another day.
"I will Ianto," Jack said slowly and the two kissed again and unknowingly that this would be a start of a new relationship between the two of them.
TBC...
me: Yup, this story may become a 2-3 short chapter multific so hope for that!
Ianto: Another story of Torchwood.
me: Hey! Aren't you glad? I'm obsessed with Torchwood now! I wasn't planning to write another short fic but this came to my mind when I saw that timeline earlier today! By the way, does anyone know's when Tosh's birthday is? I know Ianto and Owen's but not Toshiko. Err, I don't even know about Jack's as well. So could someone tell me in a review please? I don't like Gwen that much (sorry Gwen lovers) so you don't have to tell me.
Jack: We'll be onto the next chapter soon!
me: Preferably somewhere this week hopefully.
Ianto: Review and update!
