2. coffee break
Ianto looked on his watch. It was time for another round of coffee. He didn't really want to go down into the Hub and face the others. But it was his job and Ianto always did his job.
After making the coffee he made his round through the Hub. First was Toshiko. She thanked him and looked a bit curious. But didn't say anything to him except a small thanks. He really appreciated Tosh's thanks. He didn't hear it often from the others. After that he made his way to Gwen who was chatting away on her phone with Rhys. She just gave him a suspicious look, but didn't say anything. Ianto frowned. Did he do something wrong? Why did they all look odd at him?
Whatever it was, he would find out soon enough. Owen couldn't keep something to his own. He took a deep breath and entered the medical bay. Owen was currently inspecting an excrement from some foreign alien. Ianto didn't want to look too close. It made his stomach turn.
"Do you need something Owen?" Since Owen was deceased and couldn't drink anything, he didn't bother to make him coffee, but didn't miss it to ask him every time he took his round through the Hub, if he needed something. The answer would always be the same.
"No teaboy, just leave the old medic alone." He didn't even bother to look up from his work place.
Ianto was about to leave as he heard Owen behind him.
"Oi! Teaboy seemed you have got yourself a new girlfriend then?"
"I don't know what you are talking about."
"Don't be so shy! We all saw it at the CCTV." Oh great that were the odd looks about form the girls.
"She was pretty. The next time you should ask her for her phone number. Don't look mad at me! I know you have Jack now, but a girl would be something different, wouldn't it? Hey! If you don't want her, you always could pass her over to me, mate."
Ianto turned around. "I don't think girls fancy dead men, Owen. And if they did, I'd like to know how it would work out, with no blood flow and so."
Own made a face. "Point taken, point taken." And went back to work.
His last stop was Jack's office. If the others had seen him with Carys, Jack had certainly too.
His boss was sitting on his desk, pretending to do his work. But Ianto knew better. However he played along.
"Got your work mostly finished, Sir?" Jack looked up and smiled his dashing smile.
"Ianto how often did I tell you to not call me Sir?"
"Well, you didn't mind last night, though." Jacks grin became dirty.
"No I didn't mind at all. How about a repeat?"
"Jack don't distract from the topic! So when will you be finished then? There is another pile of records waiting for you"
Jack's face turned sheepish. "Well I didn't get much done. I was kind of busy."
"What have you done now?"
Jack stood up and walked slowly around his desk. "I was watching my beautiful Welshman drooling over a young gorgeous woman."
"I wasn't drooling!", Ianto protested and blushed.
"Looked like drooling to me!" Jack grinned again.
"No, Jack I wasn't drooling! I just didn't expect such a... such a nice looking woman in the office. I was astonished. Yes I was astonished!" Jack didn't look convinced.
"I would have drooled over her. God I did drool over both of you for being so sweet!"
Jack was now standing right in front of Ianto and gave him a longing kiss.
"You made me hot there, you know.", he whispered and kissed him again.
But Ianto was having none of that, he took his hands on Jack's chest and pushed him gently but determindly away.
"You are always horny Jack. Just finish your work. Maybe there will be a reward later this evening."
He winked and left a pouting Jack in his office.
