Chapter Fourteen
Rhys sat opposite Gwen watching her carefully. "What did you want to see me about Gwen?" He asked.
"I thought it was obvious, I wanted to talk about us." She said in a whisper.
"Us, really. Why has Jack turned you down?" He saw the slight blush on her face. "Gwen I am not going to be the guy you go with because the one you want has turned away."
"It isn't like that Rhys." Gwen protested.
"Really this is the first time you tried to contact me. Apart from that you were following Jack who was trying to find out what Ianto and Clark were up to."
Gwen paused. "What are they up to?" She asked.
Rhys shook his head in disbelief. "You know I wasn't going to get back with you. I was ok being second best to Torchwood because of what you guys do but I wasn't going to be second best to Jack. Goodbye Gwen."
"Rhys." She called out.
Rhys turned to her. "Jack doesn't want you Gwen. He loves Ianto and because the two of you weren't happy with what you had you both lost." He paused. "Well Jack lost, you don't just want him. Ianto is a good man and he deserves to be happy just like me."

Tosh walked in smiling and headed straight over to Ianto.
"I have another date with Lex tonight." She said grinning from ear to ear. She stopped and looked at her best friend there was something different. Tosh watched as Ianto looked over at Clark and smiled and then it hit her. "Oh My God…" She screeched and then suddenly slapped her hand over her mouth as everyone turned to her.
"Tosh what…." Was all Ianto managed to say as Tosh grabbed him and pulled him into the kitchen.
"You and Clark, you…" Tosh waved her arms around.
Ianto blushed. "Well…." He stuttered.
Tosh wrapped her arms around his waist and hugged him. "I'm happy for you."
"I'm happy for you to. Your dating a millionaire and me.."
"You're dating a drop dead gorgeous alien." Tosh said giggling.
"Tosh last night, I never felt anything like it."
"Really in what way?" Tosh asked leaning forward watching Ianto as he made the coffee.
"Emotionally, there was this desperate need. It's so difficult to explain."
"But it was good?" Tosh said grinning.
"It was very good."
"Ianto, were is the coffee for the meeting." Owen shouted out before Jack could say anything.
"Coming." Ianto called back as Tosh spat out her drink. "You have a dirty mind."
"I know what can I say." Tosh laughed and helped Ianto get the coffee ready.

Gwen watched as Ianto, Tosh, Clark, Lex and Rhys packed away his belongings. It was over between them. It hurt to watch how he had become close friends with the people she worked with.
Jack was pushing her further and further away. He was completely professional during the working hours but at times she caught him gazing at Ianto.
Gwen had dreamt that when things had ended between their respective partners that they would get together now she realised it was a pipe dream.
Jack may have found her attractive but he wasn't in love with her, not like he was with Ianto.
Tosh was out most nights or days, depending on when she was working, with Lex. Gwen had never seen Tosh so happy.
The strangest thing was between Clark and Ianto, they were definitely still in the early love stage they couldn't seem to keep their hands of each other.
If only Jack could be like that with her.

Ianto had spent most of the morning throwing up.
Owen stood at the bathroom door waiting for him. It had started a couple of days ago and he was now really worried about Ianto.
"Give me the specimen once you've emptied your stomach Ianto." Owen shouted through the door.
"I'm fine Owen it's just a bug." Ianto mumbled.
"I'm the bloody doctor here just do as I say." Owen said taping his foot impatiently.

Owen stared at the screen he had checked, double checked and tripled checked.
"Ianto get the hell down here now."
Ianto appeared followed by Clark, Tosh, Gwen and Jack. They had all known Ianto was ill, they all hoped it wasn't serious.
"What's wrong Owen?" Ianto asked starting to feel worried.
"Get down here and put your hand on the scanner." Owen ordered.
"What, why?" Ianto asked.
"Just do it tea boy, now."
Ianto walked down and placed his hand on the scanner the shape of his body appeared and suddenly a red dot started to beep.
"Owen what's that?" Ianto asked quietly afraid of what he was going to be told. He turned and looked up at Clark knowing that his lover would be with him no matter what.
"You're pregnant." Owen said simply.
Ianto turned and glared at him. "This is not the time to joke Owen."
"Ianto look at the screen, that red dot is a baby. You, Ianto Jones are pregnant."
"I'm…." Ianto's eyes rolled into the back of his head as he collapsed but before he could hit the ground Clark had caught him. His hand resting on Ianto's stomach.
