The Unexplained Chapter 6

TWTWTW

"Well, this is your home for….for ever!" John smiled. "See you around, Eye Candy, or not!"

"You can just leave me here! You can't!" Protested Ianto.

"Oh, I think you'll find I can."

"He'll kill you!"

John disappeared.

"I'll kill you!"

Ianto heard John Hart's laughter even after he had gone.

Jack made it to the cave and stood outside, catching his breath. It looked cold and dark inside and he wanted to be recovered enough from the climb to face whatever was inside waiting for him.

Taking a few tentative steps, Jack made his way inside. He was surprised at just how deep the cave went into the mountain.

Walking back as far as he could, Jack saw the blankets and rags on the floor. He looked around for any sighs of Ianto or John, but he knew they had left.

Lowering his head, Jack sighed.

"You won't find him here," came a voice from behind him.

Jack turned.

"And if you kill me, you'll never find him."

"What the hell do you want from me?"

John laughed. "You know what I want, Jack. I want you back."

Jack shook his head. "Ain't gonna happen."

"Ianto is going to be pretty lonely where he is."

Jack took two steps forward and John held his hands up in mock surrender.

"Don't do anything you might regret, Jack."

"Where is he?"

"Safe….for now."

Jack was getting angrier by the second. "Where is he!"

"Look," began John, "he's okay. I didn't hurt him." He smiled. "I could have, you know that."

"Why do you keep on? You know it'll never be the same between us. I moved on, why can't you?"

"Because I still love you. Don't you get it? You left me! I was lost!."

Jack shook his head. "You looked as if you were doin' okay to me."

"A show, Jack, for you. Bravado, nothing else."

"I can never love you again. Not now, not ever."

"Because of Eye Candy?"

"No! Because of me! I don't love you anymore!"

"I can make you love me. We were good together, Jack. You know we were. The time agency, us. We were a team, you and I and we can be again….if you'll give us a chance."

"No, we can't. I love Ianto. I'm staying with him, on Earth."

John turned and walked away. It wasn't what he wanted to hear.

"Then you just signed your lovers death warrant."

Short I know, but I wanted to get another Chapter posted, it's been a while…
