Haunted Chapter Two

Paperwork

A/N; Thanks to the three people that reviewed :D As always. Torchwood is owned by the BBC (I forgot that in my previous chapter)

In answer to Lucy'n'theMachine: Ianto asked Lily if Owen and her were together becuase Owen had shown her around and spent some time with her. So Ianto assumed there might've been something going on. Hope that answered your question. :D And I shall try to update daily or every few days. :) (Oh, and I liked your idea of Gwen being jealous of Jack being jealous if you get me) :L

Anyway on with teh story xD

In case some of you were wondering Lily looks around the age of 16 (ish)

Jack's POV

There was something about Lily that was familiar. Her eyes had a look from a long time ago. That she was older beyond her years. No-one here knew her name. Maybe I could ask Owen to question her. After all he had got close with her. He treats her like a sister that he never had. From my office I had a pretty good view of the hub, Tosh was working on a new programme for translations. Gwen was staring intently at her screen, every now and then checking her phone. Ianto then came out of the kitchen with a tray full of coffee just as Owen and Lily came into the main are of the hub. Owen said something to Ianto which got a confused look from Lily. She then walked down to the med centre and wrote something on a slip of paper, hurried past Ianto and in the direction of the archives. After Ianto had finished his round of coffee he followed the same path as Lily had taken about three minutes earlier. Settling down at my desk I tried to focus on my paperwork that was stacking up danerously high yet it was impossible. Something about Lily made me shiver and I didn't like it. She was different and not in a good way. Tapping my ear I got through to Ianto via the comm system,

"Ianto, can you help sign some paperwork, it's stacking up and I think it might topple over any moment." I laughed lightly.

"Sure, I'll be up in a sec." He replied before abruptly cutting off the communication line.

Instead of sitting there pondering I called Owen into my office, who was disgruntled about being disturbed.

"What do you want Harkness?" He asked grumpily, as always.

"I need you to help me."

"No, I'm not going to help with your bloody paperwork. That pile is too much for me."

"It's not paperwork, it's about Lily."

"What do you need help with her for?"

"Can you get some info from her, you know; birthplace, age, hometown, family. Anything."

"Kay, can't promise anything though. She's very secretive. But she acts way beyond her years."

"Owen, do you know why she reacted when you wanted to give her a check up?"

"I wondered that, maybe-"

"You wanted me to help you sir?" Ianto interuppted.

"Damn Tea-boy didn't anyone teach you to knock?" An annoyed Owen retorted.

"Sorry." Mumbled Ianto before quickly retreating outside. I raised my eyebrows at Owen but he shook it off. Before he too exited my office. Ianto came back in looking sheepish.

"Sorry about that sir."

"Ianto, how many more times, it's Jack." I reprimanded him. Ianto nodded slightly.

"What took you so long to get here anyway?" I asked curiously.

"Some boxes fell down, I was clearing them up but Lily took care of it before she let me object."

"Okay, well here. Could you fill these ones in?" I said whilst giving him a handful of papers.

Once again he slowly nodded and rose quickly and hurried out of the door. I shook my head and carried on working.

About 10 minutes later, Lily came walking into the main area. Owen stood up and followed her into the med centre. I smiled slightly as they started talking. If anyone could worm something out of her, it was Owen. He had gotten close to her in the few hours she had been here. Turning back I continued doing my paperwork when Ianto came back in.

"I've finished the paperwork." He said simply before walking out. Something was up with him and I was determined to find out what.

**No time lapse, Just changing to Owen's Pov**

Owen's Pov

This was trickier than I thought. Lily obviously didn't want to say anything about herself. Whenever I brought anything up about her past life, she would state she didn't want to talk about it and change the subject to something about my medical equipment. Then I remembered her reaction to the check up.

"Lily, when we brought you in, you were completely out of it, but when we mentioned a check up you reacted?" I asked, trying not to sound accusing. Lily's eyes flashed dangerously.

"I just...don't like...check ups...no big deal." She replied slowly, thinking about her words before she said them, before changing the subject again. Something was odd with her, always changing the subject whenever something about her was brought up. When that damn tea-boy came back out of Jack's office after finshing his paper work, Lily gave me a small smile and made a bee-line straight for him. As I watched the two interact, Lily had must've something funny as Ianto graced a small smile before Lily envoloped him in a strong hug. Even from where I was sitting I could tell into was smiling into her shoulder. There was something about her that made me feel uncomfortable. Maybe it was my imagination.

A/N; Hmm... I'm doubting this chapter. But Jack is going to get jealous, as is Gwen and Owen becomes a little protective. I might upload 2 chapters tomorrow as I'm going to be in all day. Yay!-.-

Anyway, hit that little button! :D
