A couple of months later, as Owen dressed he opened one of the drawers in his bedside table and took out a small black box. He opened it and smiled at the contents.

Gwen's footsteps grew closer and he quickly shoved the box in his jeans pocket. Gwen walked in and froze. She saw Owen's hand in his pocket and his flustered expression. She burst out laughing.

"What?" He asked, frowning.

"Sorry, did I come in at the wrong time?" She laughed.

Owen looked down at his hand in his pocket and realised what it must have looked like.

"No, it's not like that." He said quickly.

Gwen just nodded and smiled.

"Come on. Jack's going to kill us if we're late again." She sighed.

"Fuck Jack." Owen mumbled but he hurried up.

When they reached the Hub, they were actually early.

"Wow, it's good to see you turning up for work early this morning." Jack said to them.

Gwen smiled at him while Owen mumbled something about Gwen telling him she wouldn't let him touch her for a week if he didn't get his arse out of bed. Gwen shot him a warning look and sat down at her computer. Owen looked away and did the same.

A few minutes later, Tosh picked up a load of Weevils on the computer.

"Three, all in the city centre." She told them.

"Ok, all of you, SUV now." He ordered.

They all filed out to the SUV, guns and Weevil spray at the ready. Jack got in the driver's seat and Ianto climbed into the front passenger seat next to him. Gwen, Owen and Tosh sat in the back.

By the time they got to the last place the Weevils were seen, the three of them had split up, all running in different directions.

"Great. How are we supposed to catch them now?" Gwen moaned.

"Gwen, Tosh, you go after the one that ran towards the shopping centre. Ianto, Owen you get the one that went back towards the Hub. I'll go find the other one." Jack instructed.

He watched the team spilt off and ran in another direction.

Gwen and Tosh managed to catch and sedate their Weevil.

When they dragged it back to the SUV, they noticed the two other Weevils were already there. The girls wandered back towards the Hub in search of the boys.

Ianto was stood next to a figure on the floor, covered in blood. He turned and spotted them. As he ran towards them, Gwen spotted Jack kneeling down next to the unmoving body on the floor.

"Gwen stay back." Ianto shouted.

"Ianto? Where's Owen?" She demanded. Ianto didn't answer. Looking over Ianto's shoulder, she saw the body was Owen. "Oh my God, Owen." She shouted.

Ianto held her back as she tried to run past.

"Gwen, don't." He said.

"Let me go. Owen!" She screamed, twisting herself out of Ianto's arms.

"An ambulance is on it's way. He'll be fine." Ianto told her calmly.

"Let me go." She sobbed.

"Gwen, he's going to be ok." Tosh said to her.

Gwen managed to escape Ianto's grip and she ran towards Owen and Jack.

"Gwen, go back now." Jack ordered.

She ignored him and knelt down next to Owen. His eyes were half open and he looked up at Gwen. She held his head in her lap and wiped the blood from his face. There were deep scratches all over him and chunks missing from his arms and legs.

"Owen? Speak to me Owen." She begged.

"Gwen…I love you." He whispered, every word seemed to be causing him pain.

"I love you too. Listen, you're going to be fine sweetheart." She said, not believing her own words one bit.

Jack sensed this and turned to her.

"He'll be fine." He said.

"Gwen…"

"It's ok, I'm here sweetheart." She smiled.

"Marry me." He whispered.

"What?" She asked.

"Marry me." He repeated.

Gwen stared down at him in shock as he pulled out the black box from his pocket. His face contorted with pain with every movement.

"Owen…yes." She whispered. He tried to smile as she bent her head and kissed him. Suddenly, she felt his body go heavy under her. She broke away and looked into his eyes. "Owen? Owen…speak to me…Owen open your eyes…please…" She sobbed.

Owen didn't respond. Gwen clung to his body and cried. She hadn't noticed Tosh and Ianto walking over to them.

"Oh my God." Tosh gasped.

"Fuck." Ianto whispered.

Jack placed his hand on Gwen's shoulder.

"Gwen –"

"Don't touch me." She spat and shrugged his hand off her. She kissed Owen's forehead, placed his head back on the floor and picked up the little black box. As she stood up, she noticed her clothes soaked with Owen's blood. She looked up at Jack and glared at him. "This is your fucking fault." She shouted.

Gwen ran off just as the ambulance arrived. Jack let them take Owen in the back.

"Tosh, go after her. Make sure she's ok and see that she doesn't do anything stupid. I'll go with Ianto to the hospital." Jack told her.

Tosh nodded and ran after Gwen.

She found her, curled up on the steps of the autopsy bay back at the Hub. Owen's lab coat was wrapped around her. Tosh sat down next to her. She noticed Gwen's left hand on her stomach, an engagement ring on her ring finger. Gwen looked up at her.

"I'm pregnant Tosh, three weeks. I was going to tell him tonight." Gwen said quietly.

"Oh, Gwen…I'm so sorry." Tosh whispered.

"What am I going to do Tosh?" She asked.

Gwen looked down at her stomach as fresh tears slid down her face. Tosh placed her arm around Gwen's shoulders. She could feel her shaking in her arms.

"Let's go get you some clean clothes." Tosh said quietly.

Gwen let Tosh pull her out of the Hub, Owen's lab coat still draped over her shoulders.
