A/N- Next week I will try to post a one shot I am writing but I will not be posting this for a while because I have very important tests I have to take for school, so that will be taking up most of my time. I will start posting this again the first of February. Thank you to all who love and follow this story please R&R.

Warning- Gwen bashing and I have changed the Characters actions a little from what they are like in Torchwood!

Hope you enjoy! I do not own anything!

Chapter three

Ianto walked into the hub and into Jack's office. He looked at the clock that hung on the wall. Fore-forty-four the ticking clock read. Ianto sighed, as he prepared for a long night. Ianto was startled when Tosh's computer chimed. He walked over to the sounding computer and typed on the keyboard, and pulled up the source of the noise. Ianto clicked the button on his ear piece and called Jack.

"Jack, we have a problem."

"What is it?"

"The rift is acting up again. Same spot as last time." Ianto said, typing on the keyboard.

"Anything we should know?"

"Uh . . . not right now. I'll keep a watch on it." Ianto stated, sitting down in the chair.

"Okay. Have you eaten since this morning?" Jack asked, changing the subject.

"No. I'll make tea later when you get to the rift sitting." Ianto stated, pulling up the rift alert on his computer.

"No! You're eating something, You're too thin, Ianto. I'm scared; I'm going to snap you when we . . ."Jack was saying, before Owen interrupted.

"Again, keep your personal life, personal!" Owen screamed, over the com system.

Ianto chuckled, then turned off the ear piece and walked to his desk. He flipped open the computer screen and his background filled the black space. He smiled brightly as the picture of him and Jack brightened the dark hub. He leaned back in his chair, thinking of that day where the picture took place.

It had been a weevil hunt gone wrong. Jack was on the ground wrestling with the weevil and Ianto was trying to re-load his gun. Jack had screamed for him to hurry up and shot the damn thing already. Ianto couldn't get the gun cocked, to shoot. He had decided to wrestle it off of Jack. He had lost his balance and fell to the ground with the weevil falling on him now.

"Jack! Help!" Ianto screamed. Trying to get Jack's attention.

"hand on Yan!" Jack shouted, trying to find his gun.

"Jack!" Ianto screamed, begging for Jack's help, small tears falling.

"Wait Ianto!" Jack found his gun and cocked it. "Stay still Yan."

Ianto stopped fighting. The Weevil took advantage of this and bit Ianto on the shoulder. Ianto screamed and the flow of tears increased. A shot rang out as the weevil went limp on top of Ianto. Jack rushed over to Ianto and pushed the weevil off of him. Jack inspects the damage. Ianto laid there, tears still flowing down his face. Jack looked at the bit on his shoulder and sighed; the wound was deep.

"Jack . . ." Ianto barley said through his tears. "Am I going to die?"

Jack was brought to tears at the sight of his lover lay before him, suffering. "No Yan, you're not going to die. You'll be fine; we just have to get you back to the hub.

"Jack, it hurts!" Ianto cried, tears starting to stop.

Jack cupped his face and whipped the tears from his face. "Shh . . . it's okay. You're going to be fine."

"Why are you doing this, Jack? You shouldn't care about me. I'm just the part time shag tea-boy." Ianto pointed out to Jack.

Jack's heart broke as the words came out of his moth. He closed his eyes in sadness, and hurt. "Don't call yourself that. You're more than that, so much more!"

"No, I'm not. You're just saying that." Ianto started to state before he screamed in pain.

"What, what is it?" Jack asked frantically.

"My shoulder!" Ianto screamed.

Jack turned on his ear piece and called own. "Owen! I need help, bring the car around."

"Okay Jack."Owen replied.

"Hang on, Ianto." Jack chocked out, tears starting to spill from his eyes.

"Why are you crying Jack?" Ianto softly said as he was slipping from consciousness.

"I don't want to lose you." Jack was barely able to speak.

"You'll find someone else to do my job. I won't be hard to replace." Ianto's eyelids closed lightly, slowly starting to go into shock.

"No you wont! Don't say that Ianto! I . . . I . . . I love you Ianto Jones!" Jack said through tears.

"Jack . . ." Ianto started to say, as he slipped out of consciousness.

That was the last thing Ianto remembered before he passed out. The next thing he knew, he woke up on the autopsy table in the hub. Jack by his side.

"Jack? Where am I?" Ianto chocked out. His throat dry.

Jack sniffed, holding back tears. "You went into shock and passed out. You're at the hub." He said taking Ianto's hand in his. "How do you feel?"

"Stiff, and my mouth is dry."

Jack laughs a little through his tears and turns around to get his a glass of water. He turns back around to meet Ianto's lips. Jack kissed back softly. Ianto cups Jacks face and pulls back. He whips the tears from his face. "I love you too Jack Harkness, with all my heart. Forever!"

Jack smiles his brilliant smile and lets a few more tears fall, this time with Joy , not sorrow. Ianto smiles and kisses Jack softly again.

Owen must have seen it because a week later the picture was on his desk, saying it was from Owen. That night had meant everything to him. Jack never kissed him the same way again. That night instead of just sex, it was more. For the first time that night they had made love. That night had truly meant everything to Ianto and he would fight to keep it. He was brought back to reality of the cold hub, as the rift alarm sounded. Ianto looks at the screen on the computer where the monitor had now a different picture on it.

Ianto clicked his intercom to call Jack. "Jack, the rift is opening again right near you. Do you see anything?" There was no answer from Jack, and his heart started to race. "Jack?"

Gwen responded instead of Jack. "It's me Ianto. What do you want?"

"Where's Jack? Is he all right?" Ianto asked, franticly as the alarm shut off.

"Jack's fine, just with an old friend right now."

"There was a rift spike where you are. Anything happen?" Ianto asked, on the edge of suspense.

"Nope." Gwen said bluntly

"Gwen tell me! Where's Jack? What's happening?"

"Nothing! This is for us Torchwood employees, not the worthless tea-boy!" Gwen stated sharply over the com.

Ianto was going to say something when he hears Jack. "Listen you stupid, pathetic, bitch! You ever talk to him that way again, I will personally ratcon you back to when you were a child. You got that?" he said furious.

"But . . . Jack!" Gwen started to say as Jack cut her off again.

"No buts Gwen! Either it's a yes or a no!" Ianto could hear the smoke coming from his ears.

Gwen sighed. "Yes Jack. I understand."

"You okay Yan?" Jack asked softly.

Ianto sniffled a little. "Yea, I'm fine. I have to say though, you sound hot when you're angry!' He started to laugh.

"Yan!" Jack said shocked. "Well you sound hot all the time! Especially when . . ." He was cut off by his old friend.

"Now Jack, you'll make eye-candy happy!"

"God shut up!" Jack yelled at his friend.

"Who is it Jack?" Ianto asked.

"It's . . ."

TwTwTwTwTwTwTwTwTwTwTw

The black SUV pulled up to a small put outside of Cardiff.

"Why the country? Does it always have to be the country?"

"Oh will you shut it Gwen! Not everything is about you! Owen isn't even complaining." Jack said, yelling at Gwen.

"That's because it's a pub. I'm fine as long as there's beer!" Owen chimed in.

"Tosh do you have the rift down?" Jack asked, walking up to the pub.

The team walks in and stop in their tracks when they find it deserted.

"Where is everybody?" Gwen asked

"Tosh?" Jack asked bluntly.

"There's rift activity everywhere, but nothings here." Tosh said, confused.

They hear a noise coming from the back of the bar. The team grabs their guns and cock them, arming themselves. Jack singles them to spread out. The team more out and search for the noise. Jack was near the bar counter when he heard someone he knew.

"Jack the ripper! How's it going?"

Jack turns around and his breath catches in his throat. "What are you doing here?

"I came to see you Jackie boy. Miss me?" The man said, walking towards Jack.
