Author Notes: Set for the Alphabet challenge I received from Sushi Chi. Yay for the fun! Haha
Disclaimer: If I owned Torchwood, I'd have a pet Pterosaur and I'd annoy the hell out of Owen and Gwen because Tosh and I'd watching Ianto and Jack on the CCTV all day long. But I don't *Dies a little inside*
He jumped up as he breathed heavily. He didn't think he'd ever get used to the waking. He turned around, trying to find his bearings.
"Jack!" Ianto yelled, keeping his grip on the older man.
"Ianto?" Jack asked, still breathing hard.
"Yeah, it's me. Just breathe Jack." Ianto urged, trying to keep his voice calm.
Jack sighed, slowly getting his breathing under control.
"What the hell is that?" He gestured towards the glittering wall.
"That would be gold." Ianto deadpanned.
"Okay…" Jack muttered sarcastically.
"After that thing killed you, I managed to get it while it was distracted but it brought up this wall, it's gold Jack. We're trapped." Ianto explained.
"Trapped in a cave together, oh the possibilities." Jack joked, "You okay Yan?" He asked, noticing the worried look on the younger man's face.
"Yeah. You just scared me a little."
"How long was I out?" Jack said worriedly.
"Nine minutes and forty six seconds." Ianto mumbled holding up his stopwatch.
Jack chuckled at the stopwatch but brought Ianto close to him.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare you." Jack sighed.
"I know. I should be used to it by now."
"It doesn't get any easier for me, I doubt it'd get much easier for you." Jack noted.
"Yeah well, it's hard to sit and wait."
"So have you tried calling the others to get us out?" Jack asked, trying to change the subject.
"Of course I have. The signal is gone in here and that thing got rid of our comms before anything else." Ianto moaned.
"Okay so, we're stuck here until they come and find us." Jack stated the obvious, trying to get it all right in his head.
"It would appear so."
Jack pulled Ianto into a sitting position next to him, wrapping an arm around the younger man's shoulder.
"They better hurry up." Ianto muttered.
"What's with you?"
"I got called away from my coffee, attacked by an alien, had to watch it kill you, handle it myself and get stuck in here." Ianto ranted.
"Sorry." Jack said, kissing Ianto's cheek, "I didn't want to take you on this job, I knew you were having a rough day to begin with."
"It's okay Jack. Someone had to go."
"You okay?" Jack asked caringly.
"Just a bit tired. It's been a long day." Ianto sighed.
Jack pulled his great coat off and put it underneath both of them, pulling Ianto down with him. They snuggled together, using Jack's coat as a pillow.
"Rest. It'll be a while before anyone comes anyway." Jack mumbled, kissing the back of Ianto's neck. Ianto made a soft noise of approval, smiling as he closed his eyes.

Tosh was the first to get to Jack and Ianto. She broke through a layer of the rock and couldn't help but grin at the sight before her. Jack and Ianto cuddled together, sleeping peacefully. She turned back and spoke to the others over the comms.
"We should leave them for a little bit."
"Oh god, tell me they aren't at it!" Owen's voice rang over the comms.
"No, just leave them for now."
"Fine but if they aren't hurt, I'm off." Owen said sternly.
"They seem fine, nothing that needs immediate attention." She sighed.
"Okay, I'll see you tomorrow Tosh." He said more sincerely.
"Bye Owen."
