Wow! Thank you so much for all the feedback i've got on this story, I really didn't expect it, so thanks! This is another short chapter, sorry... but I've already got loads of homework...

Owen jumped, startled as the man- Algy- groaned. He wandered over and helped him get up, trying to keep himself professional.

"Wait here mate, yeah," he said absentmindedly to the man, before hurrying out.

"He's woken up." He told Tosh bluntly. She nodded. "I'll get Jack. Where's Ianto?"

"Outside," Tosh replied hesitantly. "I don't know… I think its best if we don't tell him Algy's awake. For now."

Owen nodded and left to call Jack. It only took Tosh a second to decide that she should go after Ianto, and so, glancing around, she left the main Hub and wandered out onto the roof. As she had predicted, Ianto was there, gazing aimlessly around. He looked as though he had been crying.

"Hey," Tosh called.

"Hey." Ianto replied. "Algy-" Tosh couldn't help but notice Ianto's bitter tone- "woken up then, has he?"

"Yes," Tosh replied honestly, "but I just came up to see if you're okay."

"I want to be there when Jack sees him."

"Ianto, I'm not sure that's such a good idea…"

"Trust me, please Tosh. I know he'll remember Jack… and Jack remembered him… I want to be there in case… oh, Tosh, did you see the way Jack looked at him? It was new… I know I shouldn't let this get to me, Tosh, but… did you see it?"

Tosh frowned slightly. She had noticed Jacks expression as well, and she had to admit it was different to his normal 'look', but not new. She had thought he looked more… afraid.

"Ianto," she said softly. "I'm sure Algy won't…" she trailed off. "Jack won't do that to you…"

Ianto shrugged moodily, looking away from her. "It's fine." He pushed past her, heading downstairs determinedly. Tosh sighed, watching her friend go.


Jack knew the instance Owen came in. "He's awake?"

"He's awake." Owen confirmed.

Jack sighed and fiddled with his tie. Owen raised an eyebrow and motioned to the door. "Guess you'd better come then."

"Has he said anything-?"

"No." Owen told him sharply, "he doesn't know you're here yet. So don't even think of that-"

Jack started to protest but realised that it was no good. Did all his team really think of him like that, that he would just go off with Algy, not thinking of anyone's feelings? Maybe they did and that's why he really, really didn't want Algy here right now. Because once they'd have been right and maybe… maybe they still were. But that couldn't be right, could it? Because… he didn't want Ianto to be hurt by this, and he wasn't quite sure why.

Owen showed Jack into the room. "He's fine, I'm pretty sure. He's still human anyway, and seems okay, so I'll just go and leave you two now, shall I?"

Jack glared at him. "You know it was a long time ago and-"

"Jack?" came the weak voice from behind him. Jack froze, and turned around.

"And I've changed." Jack whispered, finishing off his sentence.
