Hello again. I've got a new chapter here for you. Thank you all for reviewing, following and for adding this story to your favourites.

To the guest who asked if Gwen was nuts: I don't think she is nuts but I do think she is blinded by her love for Jack and is too blind to realise or to see that he is not interested in her.

I also just realised that my account said I'm from the U.K that is not true and I changed it back to the Netherlands. Sorry if any of you were confused by this.

Sorry for the unusual long author note. Have fun reading the next chapter.

Owen was bored. He had just finished an autopsy on a polimblim that had come through the Rift a week ago. At first Owen had thought the polimblim had died due to problems at the heart, but after some research Owen had found out that its heart was supposed to look black. How was he supposed to know something like a polimblim even existed. The creature had a dark purple colour, except for his arms and legs which were yellow. The colouring wasn't that weird. Owen knew there were animals on earth that were far stranger if it came down to colours. Chameleons even changed colour and he knew there were other animals who changed their colours as well. So the colours weren't that strange. No, what struck Owen the most was its form. It almost had a humanoid shape except its eyes were on its chest and its arms - all six of them- were on his head like hair.

He looked over to Tosh's station. It had been three months since Ianto's disappearance and everyone - besides Jack - had slowly calmed down. Tosh had been amazing these last few months. She had given Jack hell a few times for being such an ass to Ianto that the young man had felt he had no other choice but to leave, but she had also always been there for Jack to comfort him when he needed it, even if he would never say he needed it.

Owen remembered Ianto's letter. Ianto had told him that Tosh really liked him and that he shouldn't let her go. The last couple of days Owen had done a lot of thinking. Could he really love someone again after what had happened to Katie? The same thing what happened to her could easily happen to Tosh. They worked in an organisation where they catch aliens, she could easily get killed by one of the aliens and he would be alone again. But he really didn't want to see Tosh leave Torchwood for the same reasons Ianto left and end up heartbroken like Jack.

Bloody hell, he needed a drink. Looking at the clock Owen groaned. It was only three o'clock. Fuck, he still needed to wait for at least two more hours before it was a reasonable time to leave.

Gwen was standing outside Jacks office, pulling her top down a bit. She was going to talk to Jack and she needed to look attractive for Jack if she wanted to start a real relationship with him instead of this forced friendship they had created by not acting on their mutual attraction. She knew she needed to do it now or she would have to wait till tomorrow. Jack would probably be leaving soon to drive around Newport for at least an hour. She wouldn't be able to talk to him when he returned. He always was in a horrible mood when he got back.

Everyday he would leave an hour early to try to find his fuck buddy. He wouldn't be out as long as the first time he went, but he would still loyally go every day. Gwen didn't understand why he went through all that trouble to find Ianto. If he was just sex deprived why didn't he go out on the pull? He didn't even need to be on the pull. The only thing he needed to do was to tell Gwen he was hers and they could finally be together.

She really needed to talk to Jack. He was hurting because he couldn't have her and now Ianto was gone and he had lost his part time shag. If she told him he could have her he didn't need to be alone anymore. All of his problems would be gone. He would be loved like he should be loved and he could make love to her instead of a having a meaningless shag with Ianto or someone else.

She walked in and sat down on Jack's desk. She looked at him through her eyelashes. 'Don't worry ,Jack.' She thought. 'I'll take care of you.'

"Jack." She said, as Jack looked up, annoyed.

"What do you want, Gwen?" He wanted to leave so he could search for Ianto. He didn't want to waste time by talking to Gwen and getting involved in another argument.

"How are you Jack? You act like the world is ending because Ianto is gone but you don't need to act that way. I'm here for you Jack and I'll never be so selfish to leave you."

"And what could you possibly have to offer me?" He managed to ask between his clenched teeth. Jack was losing his patience with her but he knew he needed to hear everything she had to say. If she told him her reasons for being with him he could counter it with all the reasons he didn't want to be with her. It was still hard not to explode at her, tough. Specially when he heard her calling Ianto selfish for leaving him when it was Jack's fault in the first place.

"Just tell me what you want and I'll give it to you Jack. Just tell me and I'll give you what you need." She had him now. She was certain of it. After all, how could he possibly resist her. She was good looking, had a normal life out side of Torchwood and she could give him a child. That was something that tea-boy would never be able to do.

"And that's why I love Ianto" Jack continued, not knowing what Gwen was thinking of. "I NEED TO TELL YOU what I need, but I don't need to do that with Ianto. He'll just look at me and know exactly what I need. He gives me everything I want and need and he even gives me things I didn't realise I needed or wanted. I don't need to tell him anything. He just knows by looking at me. Now you tell me, Gwen Cooper. Why would I ever want to be with you? What exactly can you give Ianto can't? Because as far as I can see you'll never be able to give me what Ianto has given me in the last two years."

This was not going how Gwen had imagined it. She had thought that if she told him she was there for him he would leap at the chance to be happy with her. "But you... you love me."

Jack sighed. "No I don't, Gwen." He ran his hand down his face. Why had he allowed things to escalate like this? "It was never been you I loved. I love Ianto. I've always loved Ianto."

"But you flirted with me and you used to smile that special smile to me. You know, the one that always make people give in when you want something from them."

"I flirt with everybody, Gwen. And I only used that smile on you if I needed you to finish some important paperwork without an argument. I do love you Gwen but it's the same love I feel for Owen or Toshiko."

"But not the same love you feel for Ianto." She sounded defeated. She'd truly believed that Jack loved her just as much as she had loved him. Now the man of her dreams told her he loved someone else. "But Ianto is gone. Please Jack, I know I can make you happy. Now Ianto is out of the picture and you don't have to be alone."

"ARE YOU DEAF!" Jack yelled. "I don't want you. I'll never want you! I LOVE IANTO! He is the one I want! Every day when I wake up its him I think about and when I go to bed I still think of him! And even if I decide to move on it won't be with you. Ianto left me because he believed I love you! The last thing I'll do is prove him right and fall in love with you!"

He stormed out of his office. Leaving Gwen on her own gaping like a goldfish. When he finally arrived in the garage he immediately got in the SUV. It was time to go to Newport. Who knew, maybe today would be different and he would finally find Ianto.

Please tell me what you think and if you see any mistakes please point them out to me and I'll change them when I put the next chapter up.
