Chapter Four
Ianto took a deep breath. "You really don't know do you?" The young man asked.
"Ianto if I knew we wouldn't be here now I hope we would be in bed catching up. I missed you." Jack walked forward and stopped as soon as Ianto held out his hand.
"We need to talk and I mean talk." Ianto said as he sat down.
Jack knew that he wasn't going to like this but he had to do something otherwise he was going to lose Ianto. "Ok talk to me Ianto what have I been doing wrong and what can I do to change it?"
"You really want to know?" Ianto asked a little bit of hope started to grow inside of him.
"I really do." Jack said with a smile. "Just tell me no matter what it is."
Ianto took a deep breath. "There are a few things first are you going to leave again if the Doctor turns up?"
"No I'm not. He can't help me." Jack sighed.
"Do you love him?"
"I did and in a way I still do but not in the way I love you. I've been through so much since I've been gone and it changed me."
Ianto frowned. "Jack it's only been three months." He paused and looked into his lover's face. "It hasn't for you though has it? How long Jack?"
"It's been a year." Jack whispered. "The year that never was."
"What happened?"
"A time lord, like the Doctor took over the world. He murdered so many people. He tortured and killed me over and over again I lost count." Jack's voice broke as he the memories flooded his mind.
Ianto walked across and pulled him into his arms. "Oh Jack I'm so sorry I wish I could have been there with you."
Jack pulled back and held Ianto's face in his hands. "No, if you were it would have destroyed everything I am. The memory of you is what kept me going Ianto."
"Come on Jack." Ianto moved to lie on Jack's bed and held out his arms. "We still have a lot to talk about. Just keep being honest with me and we may be able to work through it and come out stronger the other side."
Jack moved so his head was on the pillow next to Ianto's and they could look into each other's eyes. If they were going to have this talk they needed to look at each other as they did so.
"What else Ianto?"
"Ok we'll talk about what happened in that year at some point but..." Ianto stroked Jack's face tears in his eyes at the thought of Jack being tortured over and over again for a year. "Gwen?"
Jack shook his head in confusion. "What about her?"
"Jack you have a thing for her, she has one for you. If she wants something or is upset I come in second place and you were always so jealous when she talked about or was with Rhys. If you said to her leave him for me she would do that Jack." Ianto lowered his eyes afraid of what Jack would see in them.
"Ianto I..." He paused for a moment thinking back on everything. "I never thought. Oh god I am so sorry."
"Jack just tell me about what you felt when you first met Gwen until now?"
Jack thought about it for a moment. "When I first met Gwen I was very attracted to her."
Ianto felt his heart break but he had to know the rest.
