I interupted him as we entered the study "You mean I have the job? Just like that?" Ianto sat down in a armchair as he spoke "It's yours, if you want it Mr Harkness." I sat down in the chair in front of him.

" First, Please call me Jack... My father is Mr Harkness." Ianto smiled at this. "Of course Jack then." He reached over to the small table that stood beside his chair. Ianto picked up a cigerette. " Would you care for a cigerette Jack." I smiled "No thank you. I don't smoke." He nodded his head "Do you mind if I do?" I shrugged "Sure go ahead , Its your house."

Ianto smiled as he felt around the table " Damn, where did that lighter go." I looked on the table and saw the gold plated lighter that was just out of Ianto's reach. "Please, allow me. " I reached over and picked up the lighter. As he held out his hand which held the cigerette, his fingers grazed my hand. I saw a small smile cross his lips as our hands touched. I will admit the touch of the hand sent a small thrill through my body.

Ianto, then sat back and took a puff of his cigerette. After Tosh had brought us some tea, the two of us sat for a while going over my new duties, which included running errands for Ianto and keeping him company. I also found out that like myself, Ianto was gay,and single. Ianto spoke "So when can you start, Jack?"

I looked at him "I can start now if you'd like. Is there any where you have to go? " Ianto smiled "Well , Fawny and I haven't been for our daily walk. Would you care to join us? " I looked at the dog and addressed her. "Would that suit M'lady?" Ianto laughed as Myfawny cocked her head and gave me another look that said

" You do know that I don't understand stupid human right?." She gave one bark which I took for a yes. Ianto comfirmed " Jack , you will find one bark means yes and two means no and no bark means Whatever.. Isn't that right Fawny?" She huffed and headed for the door.

I had the feeling that this dog was going to be a tough nut to crack . That the Harkness charm may not work on her. It was like she was letting me know she was the queen bee and I was a lowly worker in this, her kingdom.

I got up from my chair. Ianto rose from his too. I held the door of the study for he and our cainine companion. "May I get your Jacket for you , Sir?" Ianto smiled as I helped him on with the jacket that hung on a coat rack beside the front door. I adjusted the collar , as I did , he shrugged me off as he frowned slightly.

" Jack, I am blind, not a invalid. You don't need to fuss over me, I can do things like putting on my own jacket for my self. Clucking over me is not part of your job. I need a companion, not a mother hen"

I opened the door as I spoke.

"Sorry. And for the record, I wasn't fussing or clucking . Just trying to help my new handsome Boss man. " I then looked down at Myfawny and bowed deeply as I motioned towards the doorway "After you M'lady."

I heard Ianto chuckle as again Myfawny gave me her "Whatever." look. Ianto spoke to her as he patted her head. " Come on Fawny, time for a walk. Lets give Mr Hark... I mean Jack the grand tour shall we?"

I held the door as the large dog lead her young master out. As Ianto passed me, he spoke as he smiled shly " Thank you Jack." I responded " Cluck, cluck , cluck, You're welcome sir." He laughed as I followed him and Myfawny as the three of us, made our way outside.
