The night Gwen and Owen brought Lily home, they were lying in each other's arms as they drifted off when Lily's cries sounded from the monitor. Gwen sighed as she started to untangle herself from Owen but he pulled her back down.
"I'll go." He whispered.
"Are you sure?" She asked.
"Yeah. Besides, you gave birth, you had the painful job. It seems only fair I suffer a little and do the night feeds for a while." He said.
"Well, if you insist, I'm not going to argue." Gwen shrugged.
Owen chuckled and placed a light kiss on her lips before leaving the room. Smiling to herself, Gwen settled herself back down and closed her eyes as she listened to Owen's soothing voice over the baby monitor.
A few months later, it was the night before Gwen and Owen's wedding and they were both out on their hen and stag parties. Gwen's mother had offered to look after Lily for the night, excusing herself from the hen party. Gwen suspected it was just so she could spend time with her granddaughter on her own and had agreed with a knowing smile.
It had been Tosh's idea that Gwen and Owen spend the week leading up to their wedding apart so that on the day, it would be more exciting and romantic. Everyone but the couple agreed and they'd been practically forced into it. They weren't allowed any contact whatsoever except for emergencies. Tosh had taken the liberty of monitoring their phone calls and texts from the Hub. Lily was staying with Gwen at home while Owen stayed at Ianto's and when he wanted to see his daughter, Tosh picked her up from Gwen and dropped her off with Owen then delivered her back home after. They missed each other a lot and couldn't wait to see each other again.
Even after a considerably large amount of alcohol, Gwen couldn't take her mind off Owen. As she downed the shot one of her friends had placed in front of her, her phone lit up on the table and vibrated. Gwen picked it up and squinted as she tried to focus on the writing on the screen. She frowned as she noticed it was a text from Ianto.
"Make an excuse and
meet me outside
xxx"
"Ianto?" Gwen murmured to herself. "Why would Ianto want to see me?" She looked up and leant across the table to Tosh, shouting over the music to make herself heard. "I'm just popping outside, I need a bit of fresh air."
"Are you alright? Do you want me to come with you?" Tosh asked.
"No, I'll be fine." Gwen replied. "I'll be back in a bit."
"Ok." Tosh nodded.
Gwen stood up and stumbled as she tried to get her balance. Wobbling out of the club, Gwen felt the cool air hit her face and she closed her eyes as she took in deep breaths. When she felt herself sobering slightly, she opened her eyes and looked around for Ianto.
"Ianto?" She called into the night. She was grabbed from the side and her back pushed up against the cold bricks. Lips crushed onto hers and her eyes widened as she pushed them away. "Owen?" She frowned. "You're not Ianto."
"No, I'm not." Owen whispered as he pressed his forehead against hers. "I used Ianto's phone when he wasn't looking. I know we only had to wait a couple more hours but I had to see you now. I've missed you so much."
"I've missed you too." She told him. "I hate this not being able to talk or see each other thing."
"I know, it's driving me crazy." Owen sighed.
Gwen wrapped her arms around him and pulled him into a kiss. After a few minutes, she pulled away and sighed.
"Ok, we should probably go back now. They'll send out search parties if we're gone too long and we'll be told off for breaking all the rules." She joked.
"I don't care." He replied. His grip on her tightened and he started to pull her away. She noticed he too, was unsteady on his feet. "Come on, my car's just down the road. Let's break some more rules."
"You're driving? Owen, you're drunk." Gwen said.
"No, I drove us to the pub then walked over to meet you. It's alright, Ianto's our designated driver and he's on coke all night." Owen reassured her. They reached his car and Owen turned to brush his lips against hers. "I really have missed you so much. Not being able to hold you, or to kiss you...or to touch you..." Owen's hands ghosted over her curves to her hips. "For a whole week...it's been driving me crazy."
"Owen..." Gwen breathed as he pulled her tight against him so her body shaped into his. His hands squeezed her arse as his teeth grazed the skin of her neck. "Owen, we've only got a few more hours to wait until the wedding. Maybe...maybe we should wait."
His hands gripped her tighter and he pressed her against his car. He lifted her slightly so her hips were at the same level as his. He rolled his hips against hers and used one hand to press hers closer while he continued to lay a trail of fiery kisses along her neck and jaw line. Gwen moaned and let her eyes slide shut as she felt the pressure starting to build up in the pit of her stomach. She couldn't tell if it was the alcohol or Owen's kisses and caresses that made her head spin.
Suddenly, all contact was gone and she shivered as the cold night air hit her. She opened her eyes to see that Owen had taken a few steps back and was holding his hands in the air.
"Fine. If you really want to wait." He said. "That's if you can wait."
Gwen looked at him, her breathing heavy and her eyes dark with desire. She suddenly grabbed the front of his shirt and pulled him into a passionate kiss. Her tongue forced it's way past his lips and tangled with his causing him to growl hungrily. He fumbled with the car door behind her and gently pushed her inside.
She looked up at him straddling her waist as she lay across the back seat, her chest rising and falling quickly. She felt so much love for him and she couldn't wait to spend the rest of her life with him and their little girl.
Running her left hand up his arm to cup his cheek, she glanced at her engagement ring before locking her eyes with his.
"I love you Owen Harper." She whispered.
"Gwen Cooper..." He tucked a stray hair behind her ear and brushed his fingers over her cheek. "I love you too."
He moved to lie on top of her and captured her lips in a loving kiss. The kiss began to deepen and after a few moments they broke apart before teeth clashed as they kissed hungrily. Gwen giggled as Owen started to pull her shirt over her head.
A while later, Owen pulled himself reluctantly away from Gwen. He sat back in the seat, his head leant back and his eyes closed as he caught his breath. She sat up and curled into his side, smiling in satisfaction.
"Ok, that's the first time I've really enjoyed breaking the rules so much." She sighed dreamily. Owen chuckled and she looked up into his eyes as he turned his head to face her. She kissed him before pulling away and her smile dropped. "We should probably go back now."
"Yeah." Owen sighed. He took a few moments to gaze into his fiancée's eyes. "I can't believe I'm marrying the most beautiful, amazing, wonderful woman in just a few hours. With you as my wife and a beautiful little girl called Lily as our daughter, I'm the luckiest man in the world."
He kissed her again before they pulled on their clothes and left the car. Owen wrapped his arm around her waist as he walked her back to her hen party. Both had sobered up enough to walk in a straight line but both were planning on drinking plenty more alcohol. Now they'd seen each other, they were more willing to join in the party.
"So has Lily missed me?" Owen asked.
"Well, you know she mostly sleeps, eats and cries at the minute but I reckon she does miss her daddy." Gwen smiled.
"I know Tosh brought her over to see me but it just wasn't the same as seeing her all the time. I've missed my little Lily so much and you of course. Can't wait until we all go home together again." He told her.
"Me neither." She replied. "These night time feeds are killing me. Once you come home, I can stay in bed while you see to Lily."
She grinned as Owen gasped in fake shock.
They were both laughing as the club came into view but their laughter died as they looked to see Tosh stood with her arms folded, glaring at them. She shook her head at them and took a step forward.
"You just couldn't wait a few more hours." She said.
"Sorry Tosh, it's my fault. I just couldn't wait any longer to see her, I was about to burst." Owen explained. "And nothing happened, I swear. We just went for a little walk together, that's all. Isn't that right Gwen?"
Tosh raised her eyebrow as Gwen nodded innocently then burst out laughing. Owen nudged her before joining in. Tosh cleared her throat and Gwen stopped quickly.
"He's right. Nothing happened." She told her then turned to Owen. "Well, I guess I'll see you at the end of the aisle. I'll be the one in white."
She let out a big breath and giggled nervously.
"Nervous?" Owen laughed.
"It's just...finally happening. You know, we're actually getting married. Tomorrow. It's all been happening so fast and...it's a little intimidating but exciting at the same time." She replied. "How are you feeling?"
"Same. I'm shitting myself." He answered honestly and smiled as he looked into her eyes. "But I can't wait to say those vows and to spend the rest of my life with you." She smiled back at him. "I'll see you tomorrow then. I love you."
"I love you too." She whispered as she brought her lips to his.
Owen held her tight to his chest as he kissed her back, hoping she could feel just how much he loved her.
"Alright, that's enough." Tosh shouted. "Save something for the wedding."
The couple broke apart and sighed.
"Bye." Gwen said.
"Bye. Give Lily a big kiss from me in the morning." He said.
Gwen nodded and watched as he left for his own party. She turned and started to walk back into the pub, patting Tosh's arm as she walked past.
"Come on, I plan on getting absolutely hammered." Gwen told her.
The next morning, Gwen groaned and clutched her head as she slowly woke up. She knew she'd had a bit to drink but she didn't remember having that much. In fact, she couldn't remember much of the night before at all. She opened her eyes and immediately closed them again as the room spun around her. Rolling over onto her stomach, she buried her head under a pillow and decided she was going to stay in bed all day.
The door suddenly burst open and she groaned again as her mother's cheerful voice filled the room, sounding a hundred times louder to Gwen.
"Rise and shine sleepyhead. Don't want to be late on your big day." Her mother said.
Gwen sat up quickly and spotted her wedding dress hanging on the wardrobe door.
"I'm getting married today." She gasped and clutched her head. "Oh God, I'm getting married and I feel like shit."
"I'm not surprised, rolling in at two o'clock this morning drunk out of your skull. It took three of your friends to drag you up the stairs to bed." Mary told her disapprovingly. She grabbed Gwen's hand and pulled her out of bed, ignoring Gwen's protesting grunts and moans. "Now go on, go get yourself showered then into the kitchen for hair and make-up. Oh and I'll be looking after Lily again this morning I take it, seeing as you obviously can't even stand up without help."
"Lily, where is she? I want to see her." Gwen mumbled.
"Not until you get yourself cleaned up. Don't worry, she's downstairs with your father and that nice Japanese girl." Mary told her.
"She is my daughter mum." Gwen argued but disappeared into the bathroom.
Once she'd showered, she quickly made her way to the kitchen. Tosh had Lily in her arms and she smiled up at Gwen.
"Here's mummy." Tosh said to Lily.
Gwen took Lily into her arms and held her tight.
"Hey there sweetheart. How's mummy's little angel?" Gwen smiled. Lily just looked up at her, her face expressionless and Gwen sighed. "You look so much like your father. He misses you so much." Gwen looked around at Tosh and her parents. "Maybe we should take Lily with us on the honeymoon. Owen's not seen her properly for a week and now he's going away for another week, it's going to kill him."
"He'll be fine. You two deserve to go somewhere nice and have some time alone and to relax. You're not going too far anyway, so if you really can't wait that long, I'll bring Lily to you." Tosh replied.
"I'd rather Lily came with us." Gwen said. "Like a family holiday."
"It's supposed to be your honeymoon not a holiday." Mary laughed. "It's the special period of time newly weds spend together alone, you don't take children."
"Lily's only three months old though, it's...different." She replied. "And Owen really does miss her so much."
"Listen to me Gwen Elizabeth Cooper." Her mother snapped. "You and Owen are going on this honeymoon alone and you will enjoy yourselves. Do you hear me?" Gwen's eyes were wide like a child being scolded and she nodded. "You'll leave Lily with your father and I and you can call once a day to see how she is. When it's time for you to come back, Toshiko can pick you up with Lily and you can all go home together."
Gwen looked at her father, hoping to use her big green eyes to get him to take her side and argue with her mother. He glanced between Gwen and Mary and caught his wife's glare. Geraint smiled nervously at Gwen and shrugged. She sighed and rolled her eyes.
"Sorry duckling." He mumbled.
"Alright, fine but we get to phone twice a day. I'm not settling for any less." Gwen said.
"Fine." Mary nodded. "Now sit down so Sarah can do your hair and make-up."
For most of the morning, Gwen never put Lily down. It was only the tasks such as getting into her wedding dress that required her to let go. She had to admit, Lily was her taking her mind off the nerves that were slowly setting in. She couldn't explain why she was nervous, she wanted to marry Owen more than anything, but she was nervous none the less.
At last, it was time for her to walk down the aisle and say her vows. She took deep breaths as she stood outside the double doors, one arm looped through her father's and her other hand gripping her bouquet tightly. She wished she could hold Lily again but her mother had taken her to sit down in the main room on the other side of the doors...where Owen was also waiting.
"Are you ready duckling?" Geraint asked. Gwen took one last deep breath and nodded. "You look beautiful."
Gwen smiled at him as the doors opened. Her eyes travelled slowly up the aisle to the feet at the end then moved up. Owen was smiling at her and it took her breath away. All her fears vanished as she smiled and her feet started to carry her towards him. Her father had to walk quickly to keep pace with her. She didn't even notice him kiss her cheek once they'd reach the end, she just let go of him quickly and grasped Owen's hand in hers.
"I love you." She whispered.
"Love you too sweetie." He replied.
By the end of the ceremony, Mary was crying tears of joy and the married couple were tearing up too. Owen held his wife in a tight embrace as they kissed then buried his face in her shoulder. He could feel Gwen's arms clinging tightly around his neck.
As everyone was heading out to the reception, Gwen headed over to her mother who smiled as she passed Lily to her.
"Congratulations darling." Mary smiled. "And even though I don't approve how all of this started..." Gwen shifted awkwardly under her mother's gaze and fixed her eyes on the floor. "I'd say it all turned out right in the end. I'm so proud of you, Gwen. Owen...he's a good man really."
"He is." Gwen nodded and turned to smile at Owen who was laughing and joking with Jack and Ianto.
"And it's obvious he worships the two of you. I'm sorry your father and I weren't more supportive when you told us you and Owen were in love and were going to start a relationship." Mary said.
"It's ok mum." Gwen smiled.
Owen joined them and wrapped his arm around her waist as he smiled down at Lily in her arms.
"I'll leave you three alone." Mary smiled and went to join her husband.
Once Mary was gone, Gwen turned to face Owen and they smiled as they gazed into each other's eyes.
"How is my beautiful, blushing bride?" Owen asked.
"Just perfect." She answered. "And how is my gorgeous groom?"
"On top of the world." He replied. Gwen giggled as they kissed and blushed when they pulled away. He looked down at Lily and took one of her tiny hands in his. "And how is my darling daughter?"
"She's been an angel this morning, she only cried once when she needed changing." She told him and kissed Lily's cheek "You've been a little star, haven't you? How about a little cuddle with daddy? He hasn't seen you for ages."
She gently placed Lily in Owen's arms and ran her finger over her cheek. Lily's big, round eyes peered up at Owen curiously and he chuckled.
"Hi there sweetheart." He smiled. "I've missed you so much and now I'm not going to see you for another week because your mother's dragging me off on a honeymoon. We all know what that means."
He winked and Gwen hit his arm.
"Owen." She warned. "Anyway, I'm not dragging you anywhere, it was you who insisted we had a honeymoon. I did try and get it so Lily came with us but my mum and Tosh refused. Tosh said if we really wanted to, we could have Tosh drive her down to us. Plus we get to call my mum twice a day to see how she is."
"Well I guess it's better than nothing." Owen sighed. "I love my little angel so much and I love my wife very much too."
"I love my beautiful daughter and my husband more than anything in this world." She replied.
As the evening drew to a close, the newly weds left for their honeymoon, Lily left in the care of Gwen's parents.
It was just over a year later that Gwen was starting to reconsider one of the biggest decisions of her life. She was sat in the Hub with Lily on her lap. She'd taken Lily shopping for new clothes as she was growing out of her old ones fast and after she decided to take Lily to visit her dad at work. The team had had to run out as they received reports of a Hoix running around Cardiff, leaving Gwen sitting alone at her old workstation with Lily on her lap.
Gwen smiled as she picked up her comms which still lay where she'd put them after she'd quit.
"Oh Lily..." Gwen sighed. The little girl looked up at her mother as she chewed her fist. "Seeing all this stuff...it brings back a lot of memories." She put down the earpiece and picked up her PDA. "Some of the things your father and I saw...they were so beautiful. Other times it was terrifying." Gwen closed her eyes and her blood started to pump with adrenaline as different memories played through her mind. As her eyes slowly opened again, she looked around the Hub and longed to feel the blood rushing through her veins, her heart racing as she fired shots at the alien she was chasing. She longed to be out there with the team amongst all the action. Looking back down at Lily, she sighed again. She'd let go of all that because she had something more important in her life. A daughter who depended on her and who needed to be taken care of. Gwen had left Torchwood to keep Lily out of danger and to give her the best possible life. She hugged Lily tight to her chest and rested her chin on her head, her eyes closing. "Lily...when you're older...would you resent me if I decided to -"
The Hub door rolled open and she quickly cut herself off. Owen ran in cheering and laughing as the team followed in behind him. He ran over to Gwen and scooped Lily out of her arms to spin her around in the air. Lily squealed and laughed, her arms and legs waving in the air.
"Oh you should have seen me." Owen grinned as he moved Lily to his hip. "That bastard Hoix thought he was getting away but I pounced right on his back. He tried to throw me off but I was just too strong. I twisted his arm right behind his back and snapped those cuffs on him. These lot were no help at all."
He gestured to the others behind him and they raised their eyebrows.
"Yeah great." Gwen nodded, not paying attention to him. "Hey, I'm going to take Lily home and give her a bath before bed. I'll see you later."
She stood up and took Lily from Owen. Lily screamed and tried to hold onto her dad.
"No!" She screamed. "Daddy!"
"You'll see him later." Gwen told her then turned to Owen. "You will be back before she goes to bed won't you?"
"Yeah, of course." He nodded, confused at Gwen's behaviour. "I won't be long now, about an hour to an hour and a half maybe."
"Alright." She gave him a quick kiss. "I'll see you later. Love you. Lily say goodbye to your dad."
"No!" Lily shouted.
"Gwen, is there something wrong?" Owen asked.
"No, there's nothing wrong." Gwen answered over Lily's cries. "Listen, I'd better get Lily home, she's exhausted."
Owen kissed both girls on the cheek then watched them leave out of the rolling door. Lily tried to launch herself over Gwen's shoulder to get back to Owen as she screamed, her arms outstretched towards him. The team could hear her cries echo as the door rolled shut behind them.
"Ok, that was weird." Owen said.
"Maybe she's just tired. Gwen, I mean." Tosh suggested.
"It's possible." Owen nodded. "Lily was up earlier than usual this morning. We think she's getting a few more teeth coming through."
"She's certainly growing up fast." Tosh smiled. "She's starting to talk, I've noticed."
"Yeah, she can say 'mummy', 'daddy' and 'no'. 'No' seems to be her favourite word at the moment." He sighed.
An hour later, Gwen had managed to calm Lily's cries and had given her a bubble bath with her little family of ducks to keep her occupied. Once dried, Gwen dressed her in her baby grow ready for bed.
As she was walking through the living room to fetch a story book, Lily on her hip, she heard a familiar engine pull up outside. She went over to the window and saw Owen climbing out of his car. Gwen turned to smile at Lily.
"Who's that?" Gwen asked her. "Who is it Lily?"
Lily looked at the door as it opened and Owen stepped through.
"Daddy!" Lily squealed, almost jumping out of Gwen's arms.
Gwen laughed as she put Lily down on her little feet and watched her walk over to Owen. Owen smiled as his little girl walked clumsily, as fast as she could, towards him, her curls bouncing, arms outstretched and a big smile on her face. He scooped her into his arms and hugged her tight to his chest.
"Hey sweetie." He smiled. He kissed her curls as she snuggled into his chest then held out his arm for Gwen. She walked over and he wrapped his arm around her, pulling her into a hug. Resting her head on his shoulder, she placed a hand on Lily's back and closed her eyes. "And how are you my dear? You seem a little happier than you were earlier."
"Yeah...I've just...had a lot to think about." She answered.
She had indeed been thinking a lot since she'd returned home with Lily. It was another huge decision she was going to have to make and she had to consider all the consequences of either answer she chose. She hadn't known her answer until the minute Owen walked through the door and looked into her eyes.
"Mummy." Lucy mumbled.
Gwen snapped out of her thoughts and smiled at her daughter. She was rubbing her eyes with one hand and holding her other chubby little arm out to her.
"I think someone wants to go to bed." Gwen said gently and took Lily into her arms.
Lily put her head on Gwen's shoulder and was asleep in minutes. Owen smiled as he followed Gwen into Lily's room and watched her place Lily in her cot. They each gave her a kiss on the cheek and silently left the room.
They were curled up together on the sofa with mugs of tea watching the television when Owen turned to Gwen.
"So what was it you've been thinking about?" He asked.
Gwen put down her mug and turned her whole body to face Owen. She looked into his eyes and smiled as she took hold of his hands.
"Well...lately, when I go to the Hub and I see all that stuff again and everyone working on their little projects or telling stories of their latest encounter, I just...I start to miss it. All these memories come flooding back to me and...I remember what it all felt like. What it felt like to chase after Weevils, to save peoples lives, to know at the end of the day the world is a little safer because of something you've done. I...miss that feeling and...I want to feel it again." She explained. "All day I've been looking at Lily and thinking about how this would affect her. Would it be safer, would it be more dangerous for her? I just want what's best for our daughter."
"I know you do. We both do." He nodded.
"And what you and the team are doing now, you're fighting alien threats and getting rid of them which means protecting the Earth and it's future...Lily's future. I want to be part of that. I want to be doing my bit to make the world a safer place for Lily to grow up in and for everyone else too." She told him. "Owen...I want to come back to Torchwood."
"You...want to come back?" He asked hopefully.
"I do yes." She smiled. Owen's face broke into a grin and he hugged her tight to his chest. She giggled as he kissed the top of her head over and over again. He started to tickle her and she shrieked, falling backwards onto the sofa and pulling him with her. She kissed him hard and sighed lovingly. When they pulled away, she looked into his eyes and whispered. "Let's have an early night."
Owen caught her lips in a sweet kiss and gently pulled her off the sofa into his arms. Without breaking the kiss, he carried her into the bedroom and gently lowered her onto the bed.
The next morning, Gwen enlisted the help of a friend to look after Lily while the couple went to the Hub. Gwen held Owen's hand tightly in hers and smiled fondly at him, her mind still warm and fuzzy from the night before.
Jack and the others were already there when they entered.
"Good morning Mr and Mrs Harper." Jack smiled. "And where's my favourite niece? How dare you not bring her to see her favourite uncle Jack."
"Lily's at a friends." Gwen laughed.
"Yeah and Gwen's not visiting." Owen said, smiling secretively at Gwen. "She's got something she wants to say."
Jack raised an eyebrow questioningly as Tosh and Ianto stood either side of him and waited.
"Yeah, well..." She started, suddenly nervous. "I was wondering – if you'll have me that is...well...I was wondering if there was still a place for me here? And...would it be ok if I took it back?"
There was a moment of shocked silence before Jack grinned. He walked forwards and pulled Gwen into a hug.
"I told you there would always be a place for you here and you are more than welcome to come back." He told her. "Oh we have missed your stubborn ass around here."
Gwen giggled and Owen quickly pulled her out of Jack's arms, wrapping his arm around her possessively.
"Watch it, my wife, my stubborn ass." He warned.
Jack rolled his eyes as he turned to walk back to his original position. Tosh and Ianto each welcomed Gwen back with a hug and smile. Once they were done, they stood back on either side of Jack and Gwen and Owen smiled at each other.
"Gwen Cooper, welcome back." Jack said. "Owen can start helping you sharpen up on anything you may have forgotten or things that have gotten a little rusty."
"Rusty?" Gwen laughed. "I can assure you my skills have not gotten rusty and nothing needs sharpening up. I want to get out on my first mission."
Tosh's computer sprang to life with a series of beeps and she quickly checked it.
"Seems like we have another rogue Hoix on the loose." Toshiko announced. "Two hundred metres north of Evelyn Street."
"Let's hope he doesn't bump into Bernie Harris, he'd have a field day." Jack said jokingly to Owen.
Owen chuckled but Gwen clapped her hands together and looked seriously at them all.
"Right." She said. "Tosh, keep tracking the Hoix and let us know if it leaves the area. Ianto, you're driving. Owen, you grab the restraints and the sedative. Harkness, get your arse in the SUV."
Everybody looked in wide-eyed suspense between Jack and Gwen as the Captain folded his arms.
"Here all of five minutes and you're already trying to take charge again." Jack said then smiled. "It is good to have you back." He looked around at everyone. "Ok everybody, what she said."
They all quickly went about doing the jobs allocated to them and as Jack ran past Gwen through the rolling door, he patted her on the arm and smiled. Gwen grinned as the familiar rush of adrenaline started to pump through her as she ran after him. She couldn't wait to go home that night and tell Lily all the stories of alien worlds and everything she'd encountered.
Climbing into the back of the SUV, Gwen was surprised how normal and right it felt. Even though she had a beautiful daughter to look after and loved very much, there had always been a part of her missing and it was Torchwood. Owen had been right, it never left you alone. Once you'd become part of the team, Torchwood became part of you and you couldn't live without it whether it was the beautiful, fascinating parts or the dangerous, terrifying parts.
She smiled at Owen as he climbed in on one side of her then turned to smile at Tosh as she sat on the other side.
"It's great to have you back." Tosh told her.
"Thanks. It's good to be back." Gwen smiled.
