A/N: Thanks to Gwencooper08 for her help =D this is dedicated to you. xXx JANTO WARNING. This is set the day after the 'incident'

Lisa came out of the patio doors in the Living Room and entered the garden, two glasses of wine in her hands. The sunlight hit her and cast a glow across her face and the wine twinkled in the light. She walked over to Ianto who was painting the fence and put one of the wine glasses on the grass beside him. He smiled at her and continued painting. The sun was high in the sky and created an orange tint around it but that was the only mark in the clear blue sky. She sat one of the two deckchairs that was in the centre of the garden, put her sunglasses on, lay back and held the glass of the wine, sipping it from time to time. Sophie ran into the garden wearing a pink t-shirt and a pair of denim shorts and holding 'eve' the giraffe.

"Can I go in the pool?" Sophie begged.

"You can't take Eve in there though, Sweetheart." Ianto warned, as he sipped his wine then resumed his painting.

"Fine." Sophie sighed then dropped Eve beside Lisa's deckchairs. "Keep her safe, mum." Sophie grinned then jumped into the pool which was quite shallow therefore it didn't wet her clothing and the water only rose to her knees.

"Daddy!" Sophie called.

"Yes, darling?" Ianto smiled. Sophie got a handful of water and threw it over to her dad, showering his already paint splattered shirt with water. "Thanks for that, Soph." Sophie burst into a fit of giggles.

"Sorry, Daddy." Sophie said innocently once she had composed herself. "I wanted to help clean your paint on your shirt." She smiled. A quiet ding-dong ran through the house and echoed into the garden.

"I'll get it." Ianto put the brush back into the tin of paint and walked into the Living room. He went through into the hall and opened the door. Standing there was Jack. He smiled then looked at Ianto's shirt and raised his eyebrows.

"Oh, this?" Ianto looked at the paint and water. "Been painting the fence then Soph decided to flick a load of water at me. her and Lise are in the Garden. You can come through."

"I'm just here for the tech then I'll be off." Jack explained.

"Fine." Ianto sighed. He left the door open then headed up the stairs towards the room that was filled with Alien Tech. Jack shut the door then followed him.

-----------------

Ianto tossed the last piece of tech onto the sofa and dusted his hands.

"There." Ianto turned to Jack. "Every piece of tech from upstairs in my Living room. Are you going to take it now? I'll help you get it in your car. Jack nodded softly.

"Ok, thanks." He smiled then glanced through the closed patio doors; outside, Lisa was sat back sunbathing with sunglasses on and Sophie was sat on the rim of the pool, her feet dangling in and she was looking and talking to the teddy 'eve' which was in her arms. Seeing that neither of the Welshman's family was paying attention, Jack turned to him and pressed his lips against Ianto's. Jack was surprised when the young Welshman kissed passionately back but carried on, nevertheless. Jack grabbed him round the waist and pulled his body closer as Ianto ran his hands through Jack's hair. Jack's hands, which were situated on Ianto's back, moved lower. And it was then that Ianto pulled away from the kiss but didn't move his body, which was pressed up against Jack's.

"Damn." He panted.

"Problem?" Jack wondered, his hands never moving.

"My wife and my daughter are right outside; they can see right into this room." Ianto explained.

"Fine, we'll go somewhere else." Jack nodded and took the Welshman's hand and tried to lead him out of the room, but Ianto stayed glued to the spot.

"You think that's all I care about?!" Ianto spat. "Like I said: My WIFE and my DAUGHTER. That's the main problem! I'm married, Jack. And we have a gorgeous little girl." Ianto looked into Jack's eyes sadly. "I'm sorry."

"Damn." Jack sighed and looked down. "You've, erm, done this to me twice now. Kissed me and then yelled at me and hurt me, then you went and kissed me again and did it again. How many times are you going to do it?"

"Never again." Ianto shook his head. "You've got your alien stuff, now take it… and never come back."

"I don't have a car with me; think you have a bag I could borrow?" Jack smiled.

"Yeah." Ianto nodded and moved swiftly to a nearby cupboard. His swift movement sent a strong wave of Ianto's aftershave towards Jack which made the loss of Ianto even worse, and they'd only just met. That was the weird thing. Jack was hurt so much by the loss of this Welshman even though he'd known him for a couple of days and kissed him twice. Ianto came back over to him with a rucksack in his hand. "You can keep it." Ianto tossed it to him. Jack shoved all the objects into the bag, swung it over his shoulder and left the house.

Ianto exhaled and then slid the patio door open and strode into the garden. He smiled at Lisa and Sophie and began to paint the fence. After only a few seconds, he put the brush back and headed out of the garden.

"I'll just be a sec." He shouted to Lisa as he left the garden. He ran through the house and swung the front door open. He ran down his path, jumped over his front gate and looked down the road. Only meters away from his neighbors house was a man in a great coat, walking slowly. Ianto ran and stopped by Jack's side.

"Ianto?" Jack asked. "What the hell are you—" Jack was cut off by a pair of lips on his own.

"Now take me somewhere nice." Ianto grinned and took Jack's hand in his own and strolled down the street with him.

Sophie looked down at eve and frowned.

"That was strange…" Sophie whispered to eve; she was talking about her dad's quick exit. She made eve nod. "Wow, I'm thirsty. Are you thirsty?" She made eve nod again. "Let's go and get a drink then." Sophie grinned and jumped off the side and headed across the garden. "We're getting a drink, mum." Sophie told Lisa who nodded. Sophie ran through the living room and across the hall, past the stairs and into the kitchen/dining room. She swung open the huge American-like fridge and pulled out a two-litre bottle of Fanta and drank from it, spilling on the laminate wood floor. She put it on the shiny black granite side and screwed the lid on. She turned to leave but something caught her eye from out the window so she headed to it and gazed out; outside, about halfway down the road was her dad and that scary tall man, holding hands. She sniggered; they were holding hands. Then again, she realized, her and Abby from school did hold hands a lot because they were best friends. Maybe her dad and Scary man were best friends, she thought but nevertheless, went to the front door and followed them out of the house.

Jack and Ianto went to turn the corner but were stopped by the sound of shoes scuffing against the tar on the road. Ianto let go of Jack's hand, which received him a puzzled look and then turned to see Sophie gazing innocently up at them with her gorgeous blue eyes.

"Are you and Scary man best friends?" Sophie asked.

"Scary man?" Jack echoed. This comment was ignored by Ianto, who wasn't happy.

"Sophie, babe, you can't come down here." Ianto crouched down so he was the same height as her.

"Why not?" Sophie tilted her head to the head, not unlike a dog did when it didn't understand.

"Did mummy say you could come outside?" Ianto asked.

"No." Sophie shook her head. "But I was with you."

"Yes, darling. But I didn't know. What if you'd been taken or got lost? You have to stay at home!" Ianto instructed, raising his voice. "Your only allowed out of the the house if your with me or your mum or to go and play with Abby or Thomas from across the road and even then you need our permission, babe."

"Really?" Sophie looked confused.

"Yes." Ianto nodded. "Now I'll have to take you home." Ianto stood up and took Sophie's hand.

"What about Scary man?" Sophie asked, looking up at Jack.

"Oh, you mean Jack?" Ianto laughed. He turned to face Jack and smiled apologetically. "I'll have to skip today, Sorry."

"It's ok." Jack nodded and smiled. "I'll come over tomorrow instead."

"I'll look forward to it." Ianto smiled, a twinkle in his eye. He tugged on Sophie's hand and led her towards the house as Jack turned and headed in the opposite direction.

--------------

Ianto and Sophie walked through the door and Ianto closed it behind them. He took her into the garden and she ran to the pool instantly. Ianto walked over to Lisa and sat on the deckchair beside her he leaned in and spoke quietly.

"I was going over to Darrel's at 26 to borrow his paint pod thingy…" Ianto lied. "And I caught her wandering down the street!" He hissed.

"Jesus!" Lisa gasped. "She told me she was getting a drink."

"Apparently not." Ianto shrugged. "I told her off though."

"Good." Lisa nodded and returned to her sunbathing. Ianto decided to give up on painting and joined Lisa in lounging on the deckchairs.
