Dragon's Heart a Torchwood Fan Fic part 2

(Ianto's point of view)

'Do we have to go in today?' Hotaru asked as she pouted slightly. I loved when she did that. It was so adorable!

'You know we have to luv. Gwen and Martha would not be happy if we left them with all the work today!' Hotaru sighed and sat up. 'Fine, but I am driving! You drive like an old man.' She teased and I laughed. 'I just like being safe. You know there are some crazy people and drivers out there.' I teased back and she giggled sending my heart reeling. Her giggle was like an angels song. I loved it! She smiled as she climbed out of bed and walked towards our closet completely naked! I knew she had done that just to tease me even more!

'I think it is great that Martha and Mickey got married they so deserve one another.' I heard her but not really, I was too busy drinking her in as she searched the closet for jeans and shirt to wear for work. She was and is so beautiful! I still at times could not believe she was all mine! Finally, I had gotten the girl and not Jack. As if reading my mind Hotaru spoke softly. 'You think Jack will ever comeback to us?' I sighed my fantasy shattered. I knew she was over Jack she had told me as much. Though at times it still bothered me, not quite sure why. Part of it might be that Jack was my ex-lover and now he was also Hotaru's ex-lover. 'We never know luv.' I told her as I stood up and walking over to her I pulled her close and began kissing her neck. 'Maybe a day, maybe a year we never know when he will return to us.' I told her this cause I knew it would calm her down and make her forget bout him for a little while. It worked like it did every time. She leaned against me and closed her eyes. 'I guess we should get going.' She smirked as she felt me harden against her butt. 'Well, maybe just a little bit longer.' She murmured as she turned to face me and pushed me back towards the bed, then back onto the bed where she soon followed me and we just spent a little bit more time in bed so to speak.

We arrived at the Hub forty minutes later. 'Your late!' Gwen shouted though she was smiling so I knew she was just teasing. 'Sorry traffic was awful and Ianto drives like an old man.' Hotaru told her as I straightened my tie. 'Coffee?' I asked as I disappeared into the kitchen to make the coffee.

After all that talk bout wanting to drive she had let me drive after all! I smirked, and shook my head. 'Are you going to ask her or not?' I nearly dropped the coffee pot when Martha came up behind me in that quiet way of hers. I turned towards Martha and shook my head. 'Of course not.' I exclaimed as I turned back towards the counter and turned on the coffee maker starting the brewing process. 'Martha she still has feelings for Jack.' Martha sighed and turned me back to face her. 'Ianto Jones, Jack has been gone for almost a year and a half. She is over him somewhat. She loves you! You know this so what is the problem with popping the question?' She asked me in a serious tone. I looked down at my feet. Truth be told,I had been thinking about it for awhile now. It was a big decision. I mean last time I proposed to a girl she was turned into a Cyperwomen and almost killed every single one of us! So you could see why I had not asked Hotaru the question yet! Also it had only been a year and a half. Martha said Hotaru was over Jack but I knew better. When we made love it was amazing but sometimes she got this distant look in her eyes and I knew she was most likely thinking bout Jack. I do remember how amazing it was with Jack and yes it does take sometime to recover but...'Martha what if I propose to her and something horrible happens?' Martha shook her head she knew I was talking bout my last fiancée' Lisa. 'But Hotaru is not a Cyperwomen like Lisa was Ianto.' She looked towards the door then back to me. 'Ianto you two are meant to be she saw as much when you two first met. Go for it I think you should ask her on the most romantic night of all.' I raised my eyebrows I think I knew where this was going. 'I think you should ask her on Valentines Day!' I sighed, I knew it. 'It would be so romantic and I know she would always remember it and I don't even think Jack would cross her mind after that.' I turned back to the counter and took out five mugs and stopped when I realized what I had done. I had automatically grabbed a mug for Jack. I put the fifth mug back and shook my head maybe why I was not ready to ask Hotaru the question was because maybe just maybe I was not completely over Captain Jack Harkness either.

I smiled at Gwen as she spoke bout how Rhys wanted a child sometime soon and how she was not sure if she could handle all that at once, Torchwood, wife and mother. 'Gwen Cooper Williams do you hear yourself?' I cried teasing her slightly. She frowned. 'You sound like a mother already.' Gwen blushed as she turned back to her computer. 'Do I? Well, I guess maybe I really want to be a mother after all.' I reached out and gave her a hug. 'A mother can you believe it?' She stated as she shook her head. 'A wife too.' Gwen looked up as Ianto and Martha came in carrying mugs of coffee. I frowned Martha and my Ianto had been walking very close together. Why the heck was I jealous? I mean Martha is married she won't steal Ianto away from me. At least I don't think she would. I bit my bottom lip as I looked over at Ianto drawing his eyes towards mine. He flashed me his baby blues and I melted, nope I have nothing to worry about. 'Martha thinks we should all go out for Valentines Day as couples.' Ianto said softly his eyes never leaving mine as he spoke. I got lost in them all the time, they were nothing like Jack's. I blinked and scolded myself silently thinking bout Jack was a bad thing. I was over him, at least I thought I was. 'Hotaru..?' I blinked once again, they were all waiting for me to agree to it. 'Sounds like a good idea.' I told them as I put on a huge fake smile which Ianto easily saw through. 'Maybe, we should talk bout it again later. Right now we have a job to do.' Ianto said changing the subject as I turned away from him to look at my own computer screen. I hated that Ianto knew me that well. Then again it was one reason we were like perfect for each other. We understood each other in more ways then one. He made me feel like I was special. I mean don't get me wrong, Jack made me feel well, something like special but not like Ianto. I looked down at my keyboard as I typed a few numbers down, I more so sensed Ianto moving next to me I did not just feel him come next to me and brush my hand with his, and gently took my hand in his own. It gave me goose bumps but in a good way. 'There is some rift activity near the Bay we should check it out.' I stated as I cocked my head towards Ianto. 'Lets, let Gwen drive this time.' Ianto said and I smiled. 'Sounds like a plan. Lets head out team.' Martha said she would stay at the Hub just in case. That was fine it had only been Gwen, Ianto and I for awhile now we were use to it. 'Keep in touch.' Martha told us firmly as we headed out to the SUV off on another case without Jack.

(Jack's view)

I looked over at Rose Tyler as she and Doctor laughed bout something. It was obvious they cared deeply for one another. The Doctor had brought us to a planet where the moon shone all the time. It was beautiful here. I smiled as I looked over at Jenny the Doctor's daughter. She had found him again. They had thought she died but she somewhat regenerated and here she was. She turned towards me and smiling she began to move towards me. 'Come on Jack lets go for a walk.' Jenny took my hand and I of course did notice the Doctor watching us for a short time before he turned back to Rose. I don't think the Doctor was thrilled that Jenny and I were an item of sorts. We had been for almost a year now. She wanted to go back with me when I headed home. Another thing I don't think the Doctor was happy about but it was Jenny's decision. I felt saddened as I thought bout home. I wondered if Hotaru had moved on. I had been gone a year and half now. I was not sure when I would return to Torchwood and Cardiff. I was enjoying this life exploring with the Doctor again. 'Jack come back to me.' I blinked as Jenny reached up and lay a hand on my cheek. 'You should go back to her. You have to find out if you and I are meant to be. If you go back and you don't feel the same thing for Hotaru that you did before then comeback for me.' Jenny explained to me as she took off her necklace and reaching up put it around my neck. It was one I had picked up for her on a crystal type planet the Doctor had brought us too a few month's back. 'Jenny I don't want to leave you.' Jenny leaned in and gave me a passion driven kiss sending my heart slamming into my chest almost taking my breath away. 'I am not going anywhere. You know how to find me again.' I sighed as I looked down at my time agent bracelet which took me back and forth across time and space. I gave Jenny a sly smile. 'This is why you wanted to go for a walk. Sort of a goodbye but not really.' Jenny kissed my cheek. 'You do know me well Jack.' She murmured as she stepped back. I punched in a few numbers on the band and sighed. 'I will be back for you.' I told her seriously. 'Sure you will.' She blew me a kiss as I started to disappear in a ray of light. I watched her as I began to fade. I would be back for her, I said I would so it would happen cause I would make it so.

I fell hard on the ground and nearly got run down by a black SUV! I rolled out of the way and watched as it continue down the road. 'There is no way that was them.' I frowned as I stood and brushed myself off. They were headed to the bay. I would head that way too and find out if it was them or not and if it was, I was so going to lecture them bout driving crazy when we got back to the Hub!

I sat up as Gwen swerved away from a pedestrian walking in the middled of the road! Ianto groaned we had been kind of making out in the back well Gwen drove. We really should not have been but what can you do. 'Was that Jack?' I cried as I tried to look out the back window. 'I don't know and I don't care.' Gwen snapped as she put her foot further down on the gas pedal. Ianto grabbed onto me as I almost fell off of the seat, 'What are you doing Gwen?' Ianto cried as he got me back up onto the seat and buckle. 'I am sorry but Andy just called me and said there was a Weevil causing a raucous at the Bay! I really don't want the thing feeding on people!' She shouted as we pulled into a parking spot as close to the Bay as we could get! I looked at Ianto and he shrugged as we climbed out of the SUV and followed Gwen to where we assumed Andy was waiting. 'Your late.' We looked up and saw him! Were our eyes deceiving us..? 'You miss me?' He asked. The Weevil was tied up and ready to go back to the Hub. 'You know Gwen you really should pay more attention when you drive.' Gwen glared at Jack and crossed her arms over her chest. 'You left us.. again!' She snapped at him as she stormed over to where Andy was waiting. Jack watched her walk away and then turned back to Ianto and I. Ianto had automatically grabbed onto my hand and when Jack saw this, I thought I saw his face fall slightly. What did he expect me to do, wait for him when we had no idea if and when he would return. 'Lets head back to the Hub everything is okay here.' Gwen stated as she came back over to us. I nodded as Ianto and I started to walk back towards the SUV. 'Hotaru can we talk?' Jack asked and I closed my eyes. Ianto squeezed my hand he really did not want to leave me alone with Jack, I could tell. I leaned towards Ianto and whispered in his ear. 'I promise not to stay alone with him long.' Ianto looked back at Jack as if to say "behave" then he kissed me and headed back to the SUV.

'You and Ianto.' Jack murmured as we started to walk down the dock and away from Gwen and Ianto. 'You left us!' I cried as I turned startling him and he stepped back. He grabbed me and I started to hit him. 'You left us! You left me!' I screamed as I hit him harder and he just held me and let me to do it! 'You left me all alone!' I collapsed into his arms and he began to stroke my hair. Then he surprised me again and leaned down and kissed me. At first I did not pull back then I thought bout Ianto and I trembled. I reached up and smacked Jack hard across the face. His head snapped back and he let go of me then he reached up and rubbed his cheek. 'I guess I deserve that.' He said quietly. I immediately felt bad and reached up to touch his cheek but I stopped myself. I turned away from him once again. 'He loves me Jack and I love him.' I told him seriously as I looked down at the ring on my left hand. Jack came back around to face me and took my left hand in his own. 'When did he ask you? When?' He turned away angry. 'Right after I left? Or did he wait a little bit.' Tears came to my eyes. 'It has been a year and a half.' I sobbed. 'Even though you broke both our hearts he had enough respect for you to wait a year and a half before he asked me.' Jack took off then but I don't know where. Ianto and Gwen found me on a bench twenty minutes later eyes red from crying. Gwen sat down and pulled me close trying to comfort me in that wonderful way of hers.

Ianto glared after where he thought Jack might have gone. He felt an anger he had not felt since Lisa! He was so furious at Jack for making his Hotaru cry! He made a vow then and there to make Jack pay; no one was going to upset his Hotaru and get away with it! Jack would be sorry that was a promise Ianto could and would keep.
