Title: Cuffed
Show: Torchwood
Pairing: Jack/Ianto
Staring: Jack, Ianto, Tosh
Inspiration: The episode of Doctor Who with the Mama Alien from earlier episodes (the ones with Harriet Jones) and Jack gives the Doctor the idea to take Margret (Mama Alien) to dinner using the bonding handcuffs so that she doesn't get away but she still gets her final request.
Disclaimer: Sadly, I don't own it. Though, I have to admit, I would not mind having a certain King of Coffee in my possession. If only, if only…
Author's Notes: This is my first Torchwood fanfiction so if it's a complete and utter disaster than I blame it on that and the fact that it was written on and off over a few days because I've been busy because shockingly enough I actually do not spend my entire life on ff.n or the computer in general for that matter. So, the characters may seem a bit of and the story line a bit…what?

"Ianto, Jack's looking for you," Tosh told him.
"Tell him I've actually got work. Tell him play time is later."
"He said it was business related."
"Is anything really ever business when it comes to Jack?"
"Suppose not but he did seem more professional than play for a change."
"Alright, do you think that you could finish some of these up for me then?" he asked nodding over towards the stack of files on his desk. "Or ask Gwen, or better yet Owen. He shouldn't be busy."
"Perfect idea," she nodded with a smile. "I would hurry up though. You know how Jack gets when he has to wait. He's like a little kid. Wouldn't want him to jump you or anything, now would we?"
"Good point. Thanks Tosh," he said kissing her on the cheek before going off to find Jack.

"What do you need Captain?" Ianto asked, knocking on Jack's door.
"I need your help with something."
"Jack, I've got work, loads of work in fact. I've got two desks over flowing with work that needs to be done by the end of the month and if we get anymore files I'm going to need another desk. I really haven't got time to fool around tonight."
"I'm hurt Yan," Jack frowned. "Besides, it is work related."
"Really?" Ianto asked skeptically.
"Yes, I need to test out these," he said holding up what looked like two silver bands.
"What are those?"
"Bracelets that let enable you to hear the other's thoughts."
"I've heard some of the thoughts that come out of your head Jack. I don't need to hear the rest of them."
"I just need to see if they work. I'll think clean, promise."
"Fine," he sighed. "But then you let me get back to work. Toss it here."
"Gladly," Jack grinned, throwing one of the silver bracelets to him while slipping the other on his own wrist as Ianto slipped his own on as well.
"Jack, I don't hear anything."
"Don't get mad, but I lied. They're actually bonding handcuffs. You're linked to be Yan, if you move more than ten feet away it shocks us both. You haven't been yourself lately and I'm worried. You've slept on the couch for the past week and don't try to lie; I saw it on the CCT cameras. So as your boss I'm telling you to take the next couple of days off, and as your partner I'm asking you to spend it with me. Come back to mine and we can rent a few movies and get take out. No paper work, no weevil chases, just us for a few days. We could even go to mountains if you wanted. You like the mountains don't you Ianto?"
"Jack what part of 'loads of work' do you not understand?"
"Ianto, you haven't even looked at me in days. Is it because of the work, or have you found some bird? Or worse…did you find another bloke?"
"Of course not Jack, and now I'm offended," Ianto said going over and placing a soft kiss on the captain's lips. "We've got the head of the other Torchwood's coming in a month and half. I'm just a bit stressed. You, Tosh, Gwen, and Owen don't do any of the paperwork that often you just do the field work. The paperwork gets stressful really easily and there's no one here to help. I haven't found anyone else. I promise. 'Rwy'n dy garu di.*"
"You know I don't speak Welsh, Yan."
"I know," he grinned. "Now I promise to go on your little weekend holiday if you let me get two more hours of work done before and you remove this," Ianto said holding his hand up.
"I could help you," Jack offered.
"And how much work would we get done if we did that?"
"Work only, I know how to behave when I need to."
"Thanks," Ianto told him.
Jack gave him a quick peck on the lips before leading them back to Ianto's office.
