"Mam, I told you not to come."

To say that Ianto Jones was not pleased would be a huge understatement. It would be like pointing at the Doctor and saying, gosh, things get a little exciting when he comes around. True, but a vast understatement.

Sorry, I'm rambling a little bit. Not quite sure where I picked that habit up from. Although, it might be that nice chap…Ow! No need to hit me! I'll just get to the point then, shall I?

Anyway, Ianto Jones wasn't happy, as I've already said. His mother, who he had hardly seem for the last few years of his life had appeared in his life once again; and it wouldn't have been as bad apart from the fact that, yes, she had literally appeared in his life, having apparated into the Hub. Luckily everyone was out chasing a weevil, while he had stayed behind to coordinate, but he wasn't taking any chances. He needed to get his mum out as quickly as possible.

"Nonsense Ianto. I could hardly stay away now, could I? After what Dennis told me, I had to come around here myself."

Ianto groaned. His friend Dennis Creevey had recently been to see him, and while he was great fun to be around, now that at the age of 26 he had finally got over his hero worship of Harry Potter, he could never keep his mouth shut when faced with Ianto's mother.

"What did Dennis tell you Mam?"

"That you'd met a young man Ianto. I would have preferred that you'd told me that yourself, but at least you're settling down at last."

"How was I supposed to find you, when all you ever did was played Quidditch? You weren't around for half my life, why should you suddenly be a part of it now?"

Gwenog Jones, captain of the Holyhead Harpies, and also incidentally Ianto's mum, did feel guilty about that, but wasn't going to admit it to anyone, and definitely not her son.

"By the way mum, you apparated right into my office!"

"Of course I didn't. And anyway, you work as an accountant for the Ministry, you told me. I'm sure it's nothing that they haven't seen before."

"Incendio," Ianto said, and tossed some powder into the fire that had miraculously appeared beside him.

"I work with muggles, so you'd better get out of here before they come back. How did you apparate in here anyway?"

"Dennis took a photo for me Ianto, you know how he likes fiddling around with that contraption. What do you mean muggles? I thought that you said…"

Ianto cut her off.

"Look, I'll talk to you after work, but right now just go!"

With a push, Ianto managed to get his mother into the fire, and with rolled eyes and a mutter, Gwenog Jones disappeared.

"So, Ianto, what was that about?"

Ianto whirled around. He hadn't heard the cog door go, so where were…?

He groaned. He'd left the comms on! This was going to take some explaining…
