Chapter-25
As Alan knelt down near Gwen she started to stir and flickered her eyes was stunned seeing Alan again. Alan smiled "Hello Cariad." He said.
"Alan, where am I, what are you doing here?" Gwen asked as she scanned the room. Seeing John she screamed. "What the bloody hell he's doing here?''
"Now, now, Gwen or should I say Madame? Let's not be rude. What you should be asking is why you are here," John replied playing with a flick knife. Gwen turned to Alan. "What is this about?"
Alan sighed. "Gwen, do you even have to ask? I want to see my child."
"Oh, Alan there is no child. I wasn't pregnant." Gwen answered."Stop lying!" Alan shouted angrily, "You told me you were and I have proof!"Alan said as he showed Gwen pictures of her 'pregnant'. Gwen blanched.
"Oh my god, I can explain,"
John had had enough. ''Stop the rubbish; we know you were pregnant and that Jackie boy and Eye Candy adopted the baby. You retconned this poor sap to go back to your old life. Jackie must really think highly of you to help cover this up. Poor Eye Candy never knew about it so I guess Jackie retconned him too." John snapped.
That was when Gwen, realized what had happened to Ianto. "You did that to him?" Gwen asked and John's smug smirk made her lash out.
Alan told Gwen to calm down and went to get her a cup of tea, leaving John to flick the knife around like he was having a sword fight. John smirked he was smarter than he looked."It looks to me like Eye Candy seems to have it all. Jackie boy, a family,how's that working out for you? To be ignored for a mere butler? Pity really,I could have shown him things Jack never could." John's laugh could be heard throughout the house.
Gwen, felt jealously and hatred for Ianto surge through her body with a vengeance. To be honest it never left, she had only pretend to have changed so she could stay with Torchwood and Jack. Gwen smiled. After all she could still get J away from Ianto and she was going to use John and Alan to do it. Hadn't she been such a convincing actress when she fooled Jack, Ianto and her teammates? She should have got an Oscar for it. Rhys the rant wasn't a problem either, the poor bloke was as dense as they came.
Gwen was lost in her thoughts and didn't notice as John stopped messing around and had narrowed his eyes at her.
As Alan come back into the room, he sat next to Gwen and passing her the tea Gwen looked teary eyed from John to Alan. John scoffed. ''For Pete's sake stop the waterworks and tell us where the kid is."
Gwen looked in Alan's eyes. "Yes we have a son. Jack and Ianto adopted , you're right. Jack did help me cover it up. I was confused, Alan I didn't want you to feel that you had trapped me into being pregnant and married, so I retconned you and went back to Rhys. But the pressure was too much so I confided in Jack and the rest is history. This way I could always be a part of our son life."
Alan hugged Gwen and whispered words of endearment and confessed he still loved her, and they could still be together with their son, if that what she wanted. That why he hired John to find his child.
Gwen asked Alan was he serious about them being together. Alan nodded. ''Yes my love."
John had watched all this unfold with a suspicious look on his face. He was such a skilled liar that he could practically smell lies and right now Gwen was stinking. Gwen looked at John. "I don't want anyone hurt John. Alan and I will take our son and leave Cardiff."
"Hey fine by me. The quicker you get the kid and I get my money, I'm blowing this town." John replied.
Gwen hugged Alan as John gave them some time alone. Gwen knew that if she played along then she could get everything she wanted, and wipe that happy smirk off Ianto's face. She knew deep down he hated her, as she remembered his threat. ''You hurt my son I will put you down and you will stay down" After all, she wasn't the only one pretending
