Wow it's amazing that I am having such an amazing response to this story, it makes me all warm and fuzzy inside. Just to clarify there was no specific reason why Gwen was upset, she just was worried, tired etc...

Thanks to:

Me-Lissa1991 - Thanks for your review, here's your update!

pinkalarmclock - definitely not enough of us out there, but we'll build up our army gradually lol. Well...umm...no but let's just not think about Rhys right now.

Maria Gonzalez - trust me, I wish I was her as well! Well we'll just see where this takes us...

HarriHobbit - see above a/n for reasons for Gwen's upset-ness (not a word I know but whatever) I know what you mean, the other chapter would have made the rest of the story a lot darker I think and I'm not sure if I wanted that. Thanks for your review though!

bad2wolf2mcgee - thanks :) well...here's hoping you continue to enjoy

Kat Ranger - hmm...well let's just say there might not be wedding in this chapter. But it will happen soon - sorry! Thanks for the review, and you're right they are perfect for each other, why don't they notice it!?

Jack sat in his office staring into space. It was the early hours of the morning on the day that Gwen Cooper would be married. He hadn't seen her in a week since their last 'intimate' encounter. He had no idea what he was going to say to her even if he did see her anyway.

The rest of the team had noticed his change of mood but had no idea what was causing it, at least Ianto and Owen didn't. Tosh, being the only woman and therefore more perceptive to these sorts of things, had a slight inkling. This was only made more apparent by the sudden lack of video footage from the exact time Gwen had come in late looking all upset.

Using her genius computer hacking skills, for which she convinced herself was a good reason and she was not doing it purely out of a certain sense of nosiness, she managed to retrieve the files that she assumed Jack had attempted to delete. She snorted disdainfully; he would never understand that you just couldn't hide anything from her if there was technology involved.

Pulling up the screen she clicked play on the video forgetting her sound was on full volume after watching an old rerun of Friends last night. Immediately the recognisable sound of two people getting intimately acquainted met her ears. Moaning and panting filled the silence in the Hub and she quickly hit pause looking around wildly to see if anyone had noticed.

She met Owen's eyes looking towards her curiously and her face burned red. Please say he didn't notice, please let him just be looking at me…she let that thought go as Owen got up from his desk and sauntering over to Tosh said, "I didn't fancy you to be one to watch porn at work Tosh."

Trying to avert her gaze for him she said hurriedly, "oh I wasn't I was just…" she trailed off as she realised the only plausible excuse would be the truth, "I was just watching security footage that Jack deleted."

Owen smirked as he realised the implications of this and said, "Alright then who was it, Ianto or Gwen?"

Tosh gaped at him and he said defensively, "I'm not that dense! I knew something was up with him and it could only be to do with feelings and shit. That leaves either Ianto or Gwen, although I pretty much think that Ianto's over Jack now so that leaves…" staring at Tosh for agreement he saw her nod and finished, "that leaves Gwen. Finally."

Tosh couldn't contain her amazement that Owen was actually the slightest bit perceptive and continued to gape at him in shock.

Owen laughed and putting his hand on Tosh's shoulder he leaned over her and focused on the screen, "so play it then!"

Tosh felt his hand on her shoulder and was jolted back to reality, pressing play she couldn't even focus on the sexually explicit video but only the feeling of Owen's breath on her neck.

It was then the alarm went off alerting Torchwood to alien activity within Cardiff.

Gwen stood in front of her mirror in the bathroom. Rhys was asleep having only returned from his stag night a couple of hours ago and was snoring steadily. She hadn't had much of a hen night consenting only to let a couple of her friends from when she worked at the police force take her out to a club. She hadn't been able to focus on having fun though and the same one thought had been running through her mind the whole evening.

This is it. This is your last night of being an unmarried woman and you're spending it with a couple of people you hardly know anymore. Not with your real friends.

She knew who she wanted to be with but she hadn't been able to even think about calling Tosh or Owen or Ianto or even Jack over the past week as she had been too caught up in last minute arrangements. She couldn't remember the last time she had sat down with Rhys and had a proper chat. They had been passing each other by in a blur not paying attention the other. She couldn't help but wonder if that was what the rest of her life was going to be like.

She heard a bleep on her phone and went out of the bathroom to read her text. It was an automatic alert sent to every member of Torchwood when alien activity was detected. Another message from Tosh followed it immediately, don't worry about alert. We'll handle it, you get ready. See you later!

Well that settled the question that had been plaguing Gwen's mind. She had invited everyone from Torchwood but she hadn't been sure if they were going to turn up. If Tosh was coming it was likely that she was dragging Ianto and Owen along too. The one person she wasn't sure about was Jack. Would he come? Did she even want him to?

Checking the time her stomach flipped as she realised it was six o'clock in the morning. Only four hours until her wedding.

"What's going on?" Jack asked running down from his office called into action by the loud alarm.

"There's been an attack outside a bar close to here, probably weevils," Tosh updated him.

"I'll call the police, tell them to secure the area," Owen said as he dialled his phone.

"I'll get the SUV ready shall I sir?" Ianto asked grabbing the keys.

Jack nodded proud of their efficiency and more than a little happy to have something to distract him. "Well what are you waiting for guys, let's get going."

Tosh and Owen shared a look suggesting that they might know the reason why their boss was so glad to hear about a weevil attack.

"Tosh," Owen whispered to her once they were in the SUV, "where did you say this bar was?"

"Right around the corner actually, some street called Hyacinth Road" Tosh said, "why?"

"No reason," Owen replied trying to remember why the name of that road caused a set of alarm bells to start ringing in his head.

Once they got to the crime scene there was already yellow tape around the outside of the bar and an ambulance was loading up the injured man.

They walked over confident and mysterious with their unmarked car and enigmatic leader.

"Right, Tosh you start taking readings," Jack said surveying the area, "Owen you're with me we're going to find this thing. And Ianto you talk to witnesses, retcon if necessary."

"Yes sir," Ianto replied locating a bunch of people standing outside a church on the other side of the road and pocketing the bag of pills Jack handed him.

"Gwen, when are you going to start listening to me? You have to wear the pink!"

"No way, red is much more suitable"

"She'll look like a tart!"

"It's her wedding it would be impossible!"

"I'm her mother I think I get to make these decisions yes?" Gwen's mum faced down her cousin with an angry glare.

"Guys," Gwen said forcing her voice to sound calm, "I'd actually just rather to wear the one both of you ignored which is a nice compromise."

Her mother looked at her like she was crazy, "but it's too red!"

"Oh shut up," Gwen sighed despairingly.

It had been an hour and although it was only seven o'clock her mum had showed up intent on getting Gwen to look exactly the way she had imagined while her cousin who was closer in age to Gwen had arrived as the sort of mediator between them. Unfortunately she happened to have extremely different taste in what a bride should look like and had spent the last half an hour arguing with her mum.

"Please let's just you know…get along."

Sitting down on the sofa she dropped her head into her hands and wished desperately that she had slept longer the night before.

The only problem was that sleeping lately had been a little awkward to say the least as she kept having slightly explicit dreams about a certain Captain. Which was not the best thing to happen when you were sleeping right next to a certain fiancé who's name was certainly not Jack. Of course she felt guilty about kissing Jack but it had felt so...right. And she hadn't felt that passion from Rhys in a long time, she shook this thought from her head. It was too late now and these were not the right thoughts to be having right before her wedding.

"We should head over to the church soon anyway," Gwen said as her mum look as though she might interrupt.

"Where's the church again?" Her cousin, Lucy asked.

"On Hyacinth Street," Gwen replied, "it's not too far but we should take the car."

Ok I know I said it would be the wedding in this chapter but there's just too much to write! I am pretty sure it will happen next chapter but I think you know by now not to trust that I know what is going to happen in my own fics. Lol.

Review and I will update sooner... (it's not bribery I swear!)
