And I'm back! With another chapter for you all to enjoy. This is set after 'Untitled' (But they're not together yet). Thankyou for all the lovely reviews, for both stories!

Day 15 in the middle realm

He knew someone was watching him. He could feel it in the back of his mind, just on the edge, but not solid enough to grasp. It annoyed him to no end. All he wanted to do was read his book! Ianto looked towards the door of the library as a flash of brown hair caught his eye. Jack. He seemed to always be watching him nowadays. It was a little...cute, if not annoying as all hell when he was trying to concentrate on something.

Ianto sighed as he put down his book. It was no use now, he wouldn't be able to get back into it now that he was distracted. He got up and stretched, grinning as his back clicked into place. He returned the book to the book shelf, and left the room.

A soft smile graced his lips as he heard soft footsteps heading in the opposite direction. It may be annoying, but it was still nice to have the attention.

Day 40

Ianto sat down on Jacks desk as he listened.

"So, you see, there's this big gathering that all the gods, and deities, and etceteras have to go to, and someone has leaked out that you are living here with me. I had to explain why. So, according to the official records, you're now my apprentice."

Jack glanced up, hoping that Ianto would be okay with the proposition. The Welshman looked thoughtful for a moment, before nodding his head.

"Ok, I'm fine with that. Ianto Jones, Deaths Apprentice. Better than 'teaboy' at any rate."

"Great! I hoped you would be fine with it." Jack gave him one of his toothy, sparkling grins. "You can leave now. Have a good afternoon."

Ianto slid off the desk gracefully, and walked towards the door. He opened it, before turning back to Jack with a smile.

"So, when do I start my training?"

And that will be all for now, as I should really get some sleep. Next update should be Monday, hopefully. (Australian time). If anyone has any ideas for things that could happen, please tell me! Hope you enjoyed, and review!
