"Morning" Jack smiled as he dried his wet hair. "Morning Sir" Ianto said. Jack glanced at Ianto and gave him a slap on the arse for his earlier comment "Don't call me sir, Jack will do" Jack smiled. "I know I just can't help it when you're so… gorgeous" Ianto said trying to stop the lust from Jack's perfect biceps from pouring out of his heart. "Well maybe we could take a drive out later and maybe I will see your sexy body" Jack smouldered. "Maybe you will" Ianto teased as he gave Jack his morning coffee.
"But remember, Gwen's coming today with the baby, and I don't want you being dirty in any way in front of her" Ianto said. "Oh calm down Ianto I know how to behave" Jack said as he tucked into his pancakes. Ianto walked round the table to collect Jack's cup as Jack discreetly unwrapped his towel from his waist. Ianto was tempted but resisted by looking up at the ceiling and walking promptly out of the boardroom.
Gwen sat in the living room, which was covered in ripped pictures, and her wedding and engagement rings were placed on the coffee table, Gwen was staring into space as her baby started to scream. "Gwen!" Rhys shouted as he looked around the room, he was shocked as he picked up one of there wedding pictures which had been torn to shreds. Rhys went over to Anwen as he took her out of the bassinette and rocked her until she fell back asleep, after that he went over to Gwen who was still staring at the same spot as before. He grabbed both the rings off the table, and grabbed Gwen's hand, she whimpered as Rhys put them slowly back on, tears streaming down his face. "It's okay" Rhys cried as he placed it gracefully on Gwen's cheek. "Help me" Gwen whimpered as Rhys pulled her tightly in for a hug. "I'm going to get help okay, have you got any sleep?" Rhys asked. Gwen shook her head as Rhys took a blanket and made her lie down; he kissed her on the cheek gently as she closed her eyes. Rhys started to clean up the mess Gwen had made and also rang Jack to tell him they wouldn't be coming.
"So, what time are we expecting them" Ianto said as he placed down a coffee on Jack's desk. "There not Ianto, Gwen isn't the same as she used to be" Jack said. "How?" Ianto said. "She has depression Ianto, Rhys just told me about what happened this morning" Jack said. "What happened?" Ianto said. "She ripped up all of the pictures in the living room, and she had took her wedding ring off, she was just staring at the wall, then she didn't even notice when Anwen was crying, the most heartbreaking thing he told me, was she asked for help" Jack said as he tried to battle the tears. "Here cariad, hush let the tears out" Ianto said. "Thanks' Ianto, I don't know where I would be without you" Jack smiled as he kissed Ianto. Ianto blushed. "Why don't you go and see her" Ianto said. "Maybe, seeing a familiar face may help her" Jack said. "See, go I'm sure she would love to see you" Ianto said. "Okay" Jack said as Ianto got Jack's coat.
Jack left and Ianto took out a box from his suit pocket, he opened it reveal the ring, Ianto knew this was the night, so he got out all the candle's he could find and placed them in Jack's office, It looked amazing, the mood was set, all he had to wait for was Jack.
"Gwen darling, it going to be okay" Jack said. "How can everything be okay, I can't bond with my baby, it makes me feel sick, it makes me want to scream" Gwen grinded her teeth in anger. "Gwen can I just check something" Jack said as he rolled up her sleeves; "oh god… Rhys!" Jack said as he stared at the deep cuts which embedded Gwen's skin. "Why did you do these Gwen?" Jack asked as she still stared into space, Rhys cowering away trying not to burst into agonising tears. "I just feel so lonely Jack, it made me feel better" Gwen murmured. "How can you feel lonely, you have Rhys and your mum and dad, Ianto and me, and we all love you so, so much" Jack said. "C'mon Gwen lets get you into the bath" Rhys said. "Hmn" Gwen said. Jack Left as Rhys escorted her to the bathroom and got her undressed and got her into the bath. He got a cup of water as he poured it over her head; grabbed the shampoo and washed her hair. "Gwen I don't know if I can see you like this anymore" Rhys started to cry. "I'm getting help soon, ill be okay" Gwen said. She had completely changed, the Gwen he used to know and love had gone, and he wanted to get that back. "I love you so much" Rhys said as he grabbed Gwen's wet hand and kissed it softly. "I love you too" Gwen said.
Jack walked back into his office, to find Ianto, naked with a ring in his hand, the room filled with lit candles. "Wow Ianto" Jack smiled. "I love you so much Jack, and I want to marry you!" Ianto said. "Wow I… Ianto you're gorgeous and I love you and I would love to marry you" Jack smiled as he kissed Ianto, "I feel stupid with all these clothes on; help me take them off…
