Chapter 7

Ianto

Saturday morning, I woke up next to an unexpected heat. Well, not unexpected per se, but...I didn't really know how to describe it. It took me a moment to realise that an arm was wrapped tightly around me and my back was pressed against something. No, not something. Someone. I smiled. Reluctantly, I slipped out of my bed, going about my morning routine and putting clothes on, before going to make some coffee. Surprisingly, the sun was actually shining, not a cloud in sight. Not to mention, it was actually hot outside! It really felt like summer today. I started humming a wordless tune, something I did when I was at home and in a good mood. Not that anyone knew that of course. I looked up at the clock hanging in the kitchen on my apartment. 10:30. Huh...I never slept in this late, especially when I had work. Not even when I was a kid. Always up with the sun, my mam used to say. It was true. As soon as the sun would rise, I'd be awake and ready to start my day. That put them through hell when I was a baby... Rhiannon and our older brother Steffan loathed me for it. I smiled as I recalled the memories, leaning with my elbows on the counter as I waited for the coffee to finish. I closed my eyes and breathed deeply, inhaling the scent of the coffee mixed with...something else. I recognised it. But mixed with the coffee...it was harder to place. Until the scent was all around me. Slowly I opened my eyes, standing up properly.

"You wake up early." Jack whined, wrapping his arms around my waist and placing his chin on my shoulder.

"First of all, you can't change habit, Jack." I grinned. "Second of all, this is not early, we're late. Besides, if I didn't wake up early, who would make the coffee?"

"The Coffee Fairy?"

"I am the Coffee Fairy."

Jack was silent for a moment before letting out a soft chuckle, pressing his lips into the junction of my neck and shoulder. I leant back into him slightly, the smile on my face widening a little. My coffee machine went off, indicating that it was ready. Sighing silently, I unwrapped Jack's arms from around me, stretching to open one of the few cabinets jutting out from the wall and taking out two mugs. As soon as my feet were flat on the ground again, Jack slipped his arms back round my waist instantly. I rolled my eyes, but didn't move away from him. Why would I? Would you, if you were me? I poured the coffee into the two mugs, handing one to Jack, after I placed the coffee jug down. Jack took it with one hand, leaving the other one around me. I picked up my own mug, before turning around to face him. Jack pressed his lips to mine. His arm tightened around my waist and dragging me closer, as my free hand tangled into his hair, pulling him closer. His tongue brushed against my lower lip, and without thinking for a change, my mouth opened. Jack slipped his tongue into my mouth, brushing it against mine gently. We pulled back slightly, after a few more moments, breathing heavily. He rested his forehead against mine.

"Morning Jones, Ianto Jones." Jack grinned.

"Really, Jack?" I sighed good-naturedly, rolling my eyes.

"Yes really. Can you promise me something, Ianto?"

"Depends what it is."

Jack was quite for a moment. He placed the mug I had passed him on the counter behind me. He moved his head back slightly and looked me right in the eyes. He looked just a serious now as he did Wednesday evening.

"Never stop calling me Jack." he said.

I watched the immortal in front of me for a second before nodding.

"Now that, I can promise to." I told him.

His grin was back full force.

When we entered the Hub, only to be greeted by a very grumpy looking team. They turned towards to cog door, most likely ready to start screaming the place down, but froze when they saw Jack and me together. Rolling my eyes slightly, I headed towards the kitchen to start the coffee, before my throat was ripped out by an irate medic.

I had been in the kitchen for all of two minutes when Tosh walked in, eyes blown wide.

"So, nothing happened Thursday morning." she said. "You lied to me, Ianto Jones."

I ducked my head, face warming considerably.

"I'm sorry, Tosh." I replied to my friend, glancing up at her.

"To make it up to me, you're telling me what happened." Tosh told me. "Everything."

"And to me." Gwen piped up, walking into the kitchen. "To make up for no coffee."

"You can start making it up to me by making the damn coffee." Owen grumbled, walking in behind Gwen.

I sighed, shaking my head slightly, but unable to hide the small smile on my face. None of them moved until their mugs were handed over to them. They all took a massive gulp of the hot liquid, sighing after they swallowed. Owen left then, either to go back to his desk or to the med bay. The girls on the other hand decided to take a seat at the table. Guess they wanted me to spill my guts now.

"I'll be right back." I told them, gesturing to Jack's mug.

They nodded, leaning back in their chairs, cradling their mugs close to them. Chuckling quietly, I made my way to Jack's office.

The girls made me tell them everything. From the moment I explained to Jack what was going on inside my head up until this morning. Though I refused to tell them the details of what had happened last night, after we got back to my apartment.

"So, have I made it up to you yet?" I asked, hopefully.

"Yes, Ianto." Gwen laughed. "You've made it up to us."

"Good. Now, while I would love to keep talking, we have work to do."

I walked out of the kitchen, and headed towards the Archives. Jack had handed over a new piece of alien technology that he had been looking over. After determining that it was safe, he gave it to me while I took him his coffee that morning, so I could put it away properly. I placed the object on the desk, pulling out a book from one of the draws. I catalogued it as an 'Unknown Item', since we didn't have a name for it yet. I marked on the date and gave a description as to what it looked like, signing it, I then found an empty container, placing the item inside it, before writing the container number in the book and placing it back in its draw. It was nice having things back to the way it was before.
