Ok, sorry for the long wait but I've had a lot on my plate recently. I hope you enjoy and no I'm not going to stop this story because I have loads more chapters in my mind
Chapter 12
Ianto had read around 7 chapters of his book and decided now was a good time to make his way to school and talk to Jack. Ianto made it to the school gates and walked in again keeping his head down. Once he reached his locker he had some trouble putting in the combination seeing as he only got it yesterday but after around the 6th attempt it opened and Ianto picked out his books for the day. Ianto looked around for Jack but couldn't see his tall figure standing anywhere. As Ianto was about to round the corner he heard an all too familiar laugh ring out down the long hallway. Gwen Cooper. Ianto stated in his head. He looked up to see Gwen standing by her locker with Jack. Wait Jack! What? Ianto quickly backed around the corner and peaked around. There was Gwen standing with her hands on her hips talking to Jack who was standing calming next to her. Gwen laughed again and Ianto saw Jack smile. Jack had a look in his eyes. Suddenly Ianto's heart sank as he realized it was the same look he gave him when he was at his cousin's house the other day.
Ianto quickly headed off in the other direction taking the long way to math's so he wouldn't have to go past Jack and Gwen. Ianto didn't want to cry. He really didn't. But that didn't stop the tears welling in his eyes tempting to spill out at any second. Ianto forced the tears not to come and walked into his math class. The teacher wasn't there yet so Ianto sat at the back trying to not notice the looks and whispers floating around the classroom about him. Ianto just slinked further into this seat and made sure his now shaggy fringe was still covering his bruised eye.
Ianto didn't noticed the figure sit at the desk beside him and wouldn't of noticed if he hadn't heard his name being called. Ianto looked up and saw Jack sitting at the desk next to him. Oh right I forgot he has all my classed at the moment doesn't he. Ianto looked back down at his hands and could feel Jacks eyes on him.
"Ianto? What wrong?" Jack asked actually sounding concerned.
"Like you don't know," Ianto spat at Jack still looking down at his desk. Jack was taken aback by the venom he heard in Ianto's voice and this made him feel a little hurt.
"Actually I don't know so would you care sharing?" Jack asked in his most serious tone.
Ianto thought about what Jack had said for a moment before responding.
"I'm done sharing with you," and with that Ianto got up and moved to the empty seat across the room. Jack looked after him but stayed in his seat replying what Ianto had said to him in his head.
Ianto sat down at the other end of the room just in time for Mr. Kingston the math's teacher to come in and start the lesson. Ianto didn't really pay attention seeing as he probably wouldn't get it any way. He would usually get Lisa to help him and show him how to do it seeing as Mr. Kingston wasn't exactly the best teacher in the world when it came to slowing down and actually teaching. Ianto could feel Jack looking over at him from time to time but ignored him and when the bell went Ianto was the first to get up and leave. Unfortunately for him Jack had caught up with him in the hall and grabbed him arm pulling him to one side. Ianto was shocked at first by the angry in Jacks eyes but then put his mask back on with his emotionless face for Jack to try and figure out.
"What the hell Ianto! At least tell me what I did because right now I'm in the fucking dark!" jack said trying to keep his voice low. Jack noticed the stares they were getting but didn't care. Ianto just looked down.
"Fine." And with that Jack let go of Ianto and walked off down the hall. Ianto had a nagging feeling to go after him and tell him everything but stayed where he was. He moved when the bell went and quickly went to history. He walked in but the teacher was already there. The teacher looked over and once he saw it was Ianto he just went back to teaching. The only spare seat was next to Jack at the back. Ianto looked down at the ground as he made his way over to the seat noticing that Jack didn't even look up. I don't care. He was the one getting chummy with Gwen bloody Copper. I don't need him. Ianto thought as he stared to take some notes that the teacher was putting up on the board.
Ianto continued to ignore Jack for the rest of the week and Jack seemed to do the same. Jack had tried to talk to Ianto during the week but Ianto would just hurry off and not look at him.
Jack really wanted to talk to Ianto and find out the reason he was mad at him but at the same time he was pissed off at Ianto with changing moods so quickly he got whiplash. He thought he would just play it out to the end of the week to give Ianto some time and then maybe think about confronting him one on one. Jack had a hard time through the rest of the week not talking to Ianto and seeing Ianto so sad. Jack had somehow ended up sitting with Gwen Copper at lunch on Thursday and when he got to English it seemed Ianto was even worse tempered.
Jack was definitely going to wait until the end of the week before talking to him. It felt like the longest week in his entire life.
