Hi I know its been a long time I am sorry for that but I've been really busy with art college. Yesterday was my 19th Birthday! Big wow!

So please read enjoy, hopefully laugh and review and give me a little belated birthday joy.


Day Ten.

Once Jack had woken got up and gone for a pee, (Iantos arm had been wrapped tightly around him pushing on his bladder,) Jack laid awake watching Ianto sleep. He smiled as Ianto snuffled then his lips twitched into a smile before his face went passive again. He watched Ianto happily trying not to move or breathe too loudly.

"Jack, stop staring at me whilst I'm asleep." Jack jumped slightly as Ianto spoke not opening his eyes. Jack smiled.

"But you look so beautiful."

"I don't care leave me to sleep!"

"But your awake now." Jack smirked and Ianto opened one eye to look at him.

"If you think you're getting sex now, you can think again!" Jack pulled a mock sad face.

"I don't just want sex from you!" he said grinning.

"No I know you just want it on demand!" Jack pretended to think about it before shaking his head in a non-committing way. Ianto had both eyes open and was now looking at Jack contentedly.

"You sure we can't have sex?" Jack asked quietly.

"No." Ianto said grinning. Jack raised an eyebrow.

"No we can't have sex or no you're not sure?" Ianto grinned.

"I could be persuaded!"

"Is that a challenge Mr Jones?" Jack asked playfully.

"No it probably won't be that hard."

"Oh but you will be!"


Owen moaned and Tosh looked at him as she handed him a coffee.

"Tosh you are an angel but those two definitely are not!" Tosh sat on the end of Owens bed and curled her legs up under her cupping her coffee in both hands.

"Oh they aren't even being that loud." She said sipping her coffee.

"That's not the point."

"Oh come on Owen they have a happy relationship you should try it sometime." He snorted.

"I don't think so Tosh." He said shaking his head. "I mean who's going to want to wake up next to this ugly mug everyday for the rest of their life." Tosh shrugged.

"I'm sure there's someone." She said over the rim of her mug.

"Well if you find her let me know!" he said drinking the coffee. They heard Ianto saying no repeatedly and laughed when they heard a thump probably of Jack falling off the bed.

"Ok maybe they aren't at it." Owen amended before they heard a light groan. "Or maybe they are!"

An hour or so later, (Owen hadn't been checking the time he didn't want to know how much stamina Jack and Ianto had.) Jack and Ianto emerged showered and clean. (It had been separate showers.(much to Jacks disappointment.)) They sat down with a slice of toast each getting a glare from Owen.

"Careful if the wind changes your face will stay that way!" Jack said with his mouthful. Ianto rolled his eyes.

"I'll take that chance." Owen mumbled.

"So what's the plan for the day?" Jack asked pinching Iantos half a slice of toast. Ianto stood up disgruntled and waited for the toaster to pop.

"I'm driving, need the fresh air." Owen said over his paper.

"I think he's board!" Tosh said smiling.

"What I haven't shot anything in 10 days!" they all laughed.

"Oh heaven forbid!" Ianto said sarcastically.

"I know it's terrible!" Owen agreed laughing.


The day went quickly. Jack didn't understand how but he didn't see much of Ianto. He really couldn't understand it they were on a very small boat in comparison to the size of the Hub but they saw each other much more than they had today. First of all Jack had gone and kept Owen company up on deck then Ianto had brought them a coffee leaving straight away muttering about Tosh. Jack had then come down for lunch and Ianto had sat up with Owen as they continued their journey. Jack was now coming down the small corridor in the middle of the boat as Ianto came the other way.

"Hey you." Jack grinned putting his hand on Iantos waist. "I've missed you today."

"I'm sure you have." Ianto smiled slightly.

"Have you been avoiding me?" Jack asked teasingly.

"No." Ianto said softly. Jack turned then and pressed Ianto against the wall.

"Yes you have." Jack whispered in Iantos ear and Ianto shivered.

"I...I haven't." He stammered out under his breath.

"I think you have." Jack grinned running his hand up Iantos side and pulling his collar down to expose the skin blowing lightly on Iantos ear and then kissing the exposed skin on Iantos neck. "I think you have been avoiding me." Jack undid one of the buttons on Iantos shirt and pulled the fabric back to kiss more of Iantos skin. "And quite frankly I want to see more of you."

"Jack." Ianto gasped as he felt Jacks teeth graze his skin. "Not now...I told Tosh I wouldn't be long." Jack bit again and then undid another button. Ianto forced his hands up to Jacks chest to try push him back and managed just before he bit down again. "Seriously I just came too ask you something."Ianto took a deep breath trying to steady his heart rate.

"Ianto you're going to chose Tosh over me?" Jack lent into continue but Ianto managed to hold him back (Just).

"No...Yes...Do you prefer dark wood or light?" he said lamely and Jack laughed.

"Depends why?" Ianto blushed and looked at his feet. "Ianto?"

"Looking at furniture." He mumbled and Jack smiled

"Sorry didn't catch that." Ianto looked up and blurted out.

"I was looking at furniture for our flat and I found some really beautiful dark wood furniture and I also comes in a lighter wood and I wanted to know what you preferred."

"I don't mind, order whatever you like and put it on my credit card." Jack grinned.

"Don't you want to look at it?"Ianto asked surprised.

"No, No way." Jack laughed.

"Why not?"

"I love you." Jack said simply. "I want our flat to be what you want because I already have all I want and that's you." Ianto pulled Jack back to him and kissed him.

"I love you too and I know you're going to love this flat I promise."

"Oh I know I will. Now go on back to Tosh." Ianto kissed Jack before turning around and walking back to Tosh. Jack chuckled to himself Ianto clearly wanted this more than he was letting on. Well he wanted it more than he was letting on too. Six weeks wasn't fast enough but he'd be patient, he could be patient, he was sure he could be.

"What did he say?" Tosh asked as Ianto flopped down next to her.

"We can have whatever I want." Ianto said running his hand through his hair. Tosh smiled pulling up the 3D plans of the flat she'd created and adding the dark wood furniture to the already coloured room.

"It looks good."

"Of course it does!" he said pulling the laptop onto his knees he keyed in the codes they'd generated for the other items and they seamlessly popped onto the screen and he dragged them into place.

"Have you thought about art? Appliances? Home comforts?" Ianto looked at her.

"Of course." He pulled up more files and opened them most already in position, Tosh laughed as everything possible moved into place almost completing the image.

"So sofa choice and Bed left." She said and Ianto pulled back up the John Lewis website.

"This sofa." Ianto grinned opening the web page. It showed a John Lewis Valencia Grand Sofa, in Claret "With matching arm chairs and that dark wood coffee table and then the bed needs a little more research.

"Why?"

"It's got to right." Ianto wasn't going to tell Tosh what specifications that bed was going to need but something must have shown in his face.

"Super king size, metal? Or sturdy enough with slatted headboard?" she questioned quietly and Ianto blushed nodding.

"I know a shop." Tosh grinned taking the laptop.


"So then Harkness what's your plan for our young Mr Jones?" Jack smiled.

"Love him till he doesn't want me to anymore."

"Deep stuff Harkness." Owen muttered.

"I'm a deep man." Jack said looking at the ducks swimming next to them.

"I'm sure you are I just never get to see it." Jack chuckled.

"Iantos keen to get me out the hub."

"That's good it's not healthy for you to spend all that time underground makes you sick."

"You would know." Jack threw back and Owen accepted it gracefully.

"So what have you got planned Jack?" Owen could see through him.

"Love him. Spoil him. Marry him." Owen looked at Jack surprised.

"You really do have plans."

"More like thought processes." Jack looked deep in thought again before smiling at a text. He quickly replied and waited for a reply. It came and he replied again. Owen watched.

"Someone more interesting than me?" Jack nodded texting again. "Great." Owen kept driving as Jack chuckled again. "Ok either piss off or talk to me. It's un-nerving watching you text!" Jack looked up apologetically.

"Sorry it's Ianto."

Ianto texted Jack after he'd chosen a bed.

Finished Flat design. Should I call the decorators? You want to look it over? Ix

Jack smiled and typed a reply.

Someone's trying hard. If you want them to start work. No but I'll look you over. Jx

Iantos eyebrows twitched up knowing Jack was teasing him...again.

I always work hard. SIR. I do if you do. You will do no such thing, that's harassment!

No kiss. Jack noted quickly replying.

I know you work hard. I enjoy watching. I do want them to start, alright? I said it get them bloody working on it I want our home ready. No kiss? Jx

Ianto smiled before replying. He may as well fess up.

I like that you recognize my hard work. I like that you watch. I already called they will start Monday. xxxxxxxxx enough kisses? Ix

Jack smiled and chuckled happily.

I shall reward you for your work. ;-P I will save those kisses for later...there are never enough kisses! xx

That is true thought Ianto. Never enough.

Are you coming down to snuggle on the sofa? Xxx

Ianto didn't get a reply but less than a minute later Jack was next to him arm around his shoulders looking at the laptop screen.

"Come on then show me our home."

"I love it. I knew I would."

"Decorators are in Monday and then they recon it will be two weeks I have everything ordered it's being delivered there and so I will have to go to let them in, I have the dates written down." Jack smiled.

"Don't have them build it I want to do some, both of us together."

"Have no fear I knew you'd want too. The bookcases and coffee table are all I'm trusting you with!" Jack pretended to look upset and shocked.

"I'll have you know I have many years of flat pack furniture building under my belt."

"I'm sure you helped Ikea design there bookcases Jack and I know your belt is very big but quite frankly we never have a lot of time and I'd rather use the time to test the bed!"

"Oh I knew there was a reason I was moving in with you!" Jack teased.

"I just like being the Toy Boy!" Ianto teased sticking his tongue out at Jack.

"Ha are you calling me old?" Jack said faking shock.

"You are old!" Ianto laughed.

"I'll give you old Ianto Jones!" Jack roughly pulled Ianto into a kiss. Ianto didn't fight Jack was fully in control and he loved it he could hardly breath and the lack of oxygen was making him dizzy. Jack suddenly let him go Ianto pleased to see him sufficiently breathless. Before he fully recover Jack had closed the laptop and taken it off him. Jack lips assaulting his again. He felt helpless but completely safe. Jack lips left his and he gasped in air and Jacks mouth moved to his neck.

"Jack." He gasped again. "Stop."

"No." Jack purred against his skin.

"Oh God please...stop." Ianto gasped not wanting to think about where Jacks hands were going on his body. "Ok...Ok...you're not old. Oh my God...you are not old. Please stop...we can't...not here." Jack stopped.

"So what am I not?"

"Old."

"Good and What am I?" He grinned and Ianto looked him in the eye the cheeky grin back.

"Other than immortal and irresistible?" he pretended to think and Jack bit his neck making him jump, "gorgeous, sexy, charismatic and all mine." Ianto added happily.

"You have definitely made up for the old comments tell me more." Jack said curling up next to Ianto and Ianto put his arm around Jacks shoulders.

"It was just one old comment."

"What else?"

"Are you trying to make me tell you why I want to be with you?"

"Yes."

"Soppy git, I would put another three letter word in between those but I'm not going to." Jack elbowed him in the ribs. "Your funny and make me feel like I am the world, even though you have to save the world most of the time. Your eyes are beautiful and I don't care that they are too old for your face it makes you who you are."Iantos fingers played through Jacks hair and neither of the pair had heard Toshiko behind them. "With you I feel I belong, you kind and you don't judge, you know I give my all and don't push me. Your sensitive, deep, good in bed. No scratch that your incredible in bed." Jack laughed and Tosh watched Ianto stroking through Jacks hair the pair happily together. She snuck back out leaving them feeling she couldn't listen to Iantos personal feelings any longer. "You complete me Jack and the only thing that ever scared me was that I wasn't good enough for you, wasn't enough to complete you but I know I am now. For the moment I know I'm all you need."


"I thought you were going to make coffee." Gwen said as Tosh sat back down.

"Well I was but Jack and Ianto were having a moment."

"Oh no." Owen complained.

"No like a soppy moment." She explained.

"Oh that makes it so much better." Owen said sarcastically.

"Hey Mr I'm-grumpy-and-unloved give it a break." Gwen teased.

"I will if they do!"


They walked up to the pub to eat dinner, everyone was very quiet they didn't really know what to talk about they had exhausted talk about work, they had discussed everything from Autons to Weevils, every species, case and strange blob they had encountered. They had joked, laughed and even made a few comments on more serious times and all come out happy at the end of the evening. That evening they actually touched on none rift related material more than they had rift related material, music, movies and Pod casts were the main subjects not television none of them saw any of that. Jack and Ianto had seen all the same recent movies, Tosh and Owen shared podcasts and all of them had music of some type in common. They returned to the boat and all piled in laughing and joking once again content that they were warm, fed and weren't chasing weevil though the sewers.

Ianto lay back in bed with a happy soft groan. Jack smiled pulling his t-shirt off over his head and climbed in next to Iantos relaxed body.

"You seem happy." Ianto smiled.

"Of course I am, I'm in bed with a my gorgeous partner and on holiday with my close friends." He shuffled further down the bed and removed his hands from above his head.

"I'm glad to hear it."

"I don't think I could be much happier." Jack smiled. "No I'm wrong I know a day where I will be even more happier." Jack looked at him intrigued. "The weekend we go away just us." Jack laughed and nodded.

"I'm very much looking forward to that."

"And I'll be happier the day we more into our flat together." Jack smiled and looked and Ianto who was staring dreamily up at the ceiling.

"I couldn't be happier hearing that Ianto."

"Oh trust me you will be happier on those days!"

"Well for now how about we get some sleep?" Ianto turned and kissed Jack softly and nodded as he curled around Jacks chest.

"Goodnight Jack." Jack kissed Iantos head.

"Goodnight Ianto and God bless." He kissed him again.
