Marvin called Ianto later in the week to check everything was fine and told him so far the voting showed him in the lead. He was laughing as he told him. Of course he was in the lead. He was the only one getting votes.
Their weekend away was coming up and Ianto had promised Jack that he could make the plans. After all … you have to admit, he did know Ianto's likes. Ianto even left the packing to him, even if it did hurt a little and he may have placed a toothbrush in his jacket pocket in its little protector just in case.
Jack was giving last minute instructions to Curtis who was nodding like he was listening even if Ianto had already slipped a list of the REAL rules to him so he would know the children's current punishments.
Yes.
Best to keep a current list when you are a Grandy so you don't accidentally praise someone in a timeout.
As they drove towards London Ianto wondered what Jack had decided on, not really caring as long as there was food and a bed involved… not in that order. Arriving at a swank hotel was tick number one, the alias and a huge tip with a wink and whisper that they not be disturbed was tick two … then came the room.
Honeymoon suite.
Ahhhhhhhhh YES!
Ianto walked to the bedroom and flopped on the unbelievably huge bed covered on such soft eiderdowns that he almost completely disappeared. Jack smiled and a hefty tip to the doorman was needed and a whispered request before the door closed.
"Good Tiger?"
"Lovely"
"Bed already?" Jack smiled "But there is still the hot tub on the balcony"
Ianto sat up, struggled to the edge of the bed and stomped out to see the large four person tub behind privacy screens. It had bubbles too. Ahhhhhhhhhh YES!
"Oh Cariad"
"Oh, doorbell. That will be the food I pre-ordered." Jack said, racing to let them in and Ianto watched as the trolley was moved out to the hot tub, Jack opening the champagne. "Thanks guys. I'll see you out."
Ianto knew tips would be given and they would be assured a lovely time as he shucked off his clothes and stepped in, groaning as the warmth sank into his bones. Jack joined him, holding the glasses out of the water as he settled then offered one to Ianto, then reached for a plate of food "Look sweetie. This little floatie keeps it out of the water and cool. Found them on E-Bay."
Ianto watched Jack place a little flotation device in the water and the plate on top, the yummy food now within reach.
"Cariad?"
"Yes Tiger?"
"You get so many ticks Ton would need two clipboards."
Jack preened as he knew ticks translated to kisses.
YES!
