Day Twelve.
Jack woke fit fully for the second time that holiday, this time he could not hide it from Ianto.
"Morning gorgeous." He grinned and Ianto smiled his eyebrows raised suspiciously.
"What's the matter?" Ianto said eyeing Jack carefully.
"Nothing." Jacks said unconvincingly.
"Sure and I'm the pope!" Iantos said sarcastically. Jack laughed.
"Well I think other Catholics would have something to say about that." Jack teased and Ianto just looked at him unimpressed. "I'm fine Ianto." but Ianto wasn't letting it go.
"Bad dream? Doubts? About me? About us? Come on Jack you can tell me."
"Just a bad dream. It was nothing just glad to be awake."
"Please tell me about it." Ianto looked longingly into Jack eyes willing him to tell him.
"Ianto I'm fine, I woke up and your here it's all I need."
"You dreamt you lost me didn't you." How does he read my mind? Jack thought hanging his head before looking back up at Ianto.
"Yeh I did." Ianto kissed him climbing carefully on top of him and pressing his body right up to Jacks. Running his hands down Jacks side.
"Well you didn't."
"Ummm I can feel that." Ianto ground his hips down.
"Can you feel that?"
"Yes and I know what to do with it."
"Well that's very good to know." Ianto said leaning down and kissing Jack again. "But this time is about me reassuring you, you're not going to lose me." Ianto started to kiss down Jacks torso and Jacks head lolled back with a groan as Iantos mouth played havoc on his body.
"So what do you think now?" Ianto asked as he continued his assault down Jacks body.
"Oh God. I'm never going to lose you." Jack stammered before grabbing Iantos face in his hands and pulling their lips roughly together. "and if you tried to leave I wouldn't let you go without a bloody hard fight." Ianto laughed.
"Well I'm not leaving you ever, I'm yours Jack for all of my forever I'm yours."
Gwen wondered around the boat, she felt lonely, she missed Rhys. Jack was happy playing happy families with Ianto and Owen and Tosh were encouraging them. She'd known for a long time Tosh liked Owen but now they were getting closer she could see the connection, she was on the outside, she'd never really fitted in, she was still the new girl. So what she'd made some mistakes but so had the others and hers weren't as bad as theirs...well maybe they were. She was fed up, bored of being left out and forgotten about. She thought about going back to bed but Owen had decided to go jump in with Tosh as a laugh, she knew nothing was going on but them chatting and laughing above her was an irritation.
She looked up as she heard footsteps. Jack plodded down the boat in a pair of sweat pants and she was sure Iantos t-shirt. He smiled at her before throwing some bread in the toaster and switched the kettle on before pulling out two glasses and two mugs pouring two orange juices and putting coffee into the cafeteria and pouring the nearly boiled water into it as the first set of toast popped. Gwen watched as he buttered toast with his right hand and filtered the coffee with the other. The next set popped and he worked quickly. He poured the coffees and turned to her smiling.
"He hates cold toast. Picky sod." And he was off tray in hand back down the corridor. Time would have been he'd have talked to her more. Now he just concentrated on Ianto.
"Here you go." Jack placed the tray down on the bed and Ianto put his book down.
"Smells great." Ianto picked up the coffee and took a sip. "Almost as good as mine!"
"Mine will never be as good as yours!"Jack said getting into bed next to Ianto.
"It's getting there honestly." Jack looked at his suspiciously.
"If it's awful and you're just saying this to get more breakfasts in bed then you are in big trouble!" Ianto looked at Jack innocently.
"I'm telling the truth." He said laughing Jack still looked at him suspiciously. "Fine don't believe me." Ianto continued to drink the coffee. Jack sipped it carefully. Then frowned approvingly,
"Alright it's not too bad!" Ianto laughed.
"And neither are you!" Ianto said between laughs. Jack sighed contentedly he'd never tire of hearing that laugh.
Tosh and Owen lay in bed, Owen put his arm around her shoulders, the single bed not really big enough for the both of them but he didn't mind. Tosh smiled and wriggled slightly.
"Hey will you stop wriggling?" Owen asked looking at Tosh.
"I'm sorry."
"Here." He said pulling her onto her side, placing her right hand on his chest, so she was hooked into his right side. "That's better right?" He smiled feeling her hand move slightly on his chest as she smoothed the fabric of this t-shirt down.
"Yeh much better." His right arm hooked around her neck and he started to absentmindedly stroke her hair.
"Well don't you two look cosy?" Jack drawled from the doorway.
"Well we thought as you and Ianto have got a warm body to snuggle up against we'd see what all the fuss is about." Owen said cheerily.
"Well don't get to comfortable we've got to get going! Only two days left!" Jack said and Tosh looked sad.
"Oh don't say that we've got today so it's really three!" Tosh said.
"I know it's been great!"
"Yeh for you...you've been getting it every night!"
"Not every night." Owen gave him a sceptical look. "Just most days you can't say nights!" Owen grimaced and Tosh laughed.
"Who wants bacon?" Jack yelled from the kitchen.
"Me!" said Ianto walking down the boat towel drying his hair. Jack heard Owen and Tosh yell that they did and he looked around at Gwen to nodded before muttering something about taking the next shower. "What's up with her?" Ianto asked as Gwen locked herself in to the shower.
"No idea." Jack said pulling the frying pan out the cupboard and putting it on the ring before loading it up with bacon.
"I'll do the bread." Ianto said grabbing plates out the wash rack and the butter off the side by Jack. Jack sliced the bread and Ianto paired it up, buttered it and added the correct sauce to each set of bread. Jack fried the bacon and plated it up.
"Bacons done." He yelled as Ianto cut each sandwich in half.
"I'm going to eat this outside." Ianto said picking up his and the paper.
"I'll join you in a minute." Jack smiled. Ianto carefully sat up on the tin it was a beautiful morning. Ianto settled down and took a bite of his sandwich before opening up the paper. Jack joined him soon after.
"Nothing major in Cardiff I hope."
"Well it hasn't fallen off the map...yet!"Ianto put the paper down and finished his sandwich.
"Damn, if it had life would be so much easier."Ianto looked at Jack unimpressed. "What?"
"I happen to like Wales, it's kind of my home." Ianto teased.
"Oh well, you are still pretty perfect." Jack laughed.
"Thanks for that!" Jack smiled.
"No problem." He said kissing Ianto quickly. Ianto shook his head and stood up taking the plates down into the kitchen. He felt a judder and heard the engine stop. He headed back up on deck to see Owen pulling the boat back into the side.
"What happened?"
"Engines given out or something has, we're going to call the hire company see if there is anything we can do." Ianto nodded, went, and sat back next to Jack who was flicking through a magazine. On closer inspection, he noticed it was in fact a comic.
"What are you reading?"
"Superman." Jack said smiling and Ianto looked at him.
"Your reading a superman comic?" he said incredulously Jack looked up at him and nodded.
"What's wrong with that?"
"Nothing."
"I've always read them."
"I've never seen you with one before."
"Alright so it's my dirty little secret I like superman!"
"Well he is pretty cute!"
"Yeh and the rippling muscles are pretty hot." Ianto laughed and kissed Jack softly behind the ear, whispering.
"Well you're my superman." Jack looked up from his comic but not at Ianto smiling.
"Really?" Ianto smiled.
"Oh yeah." He breathed in Jacks ear. Jack looked at him with a small smile.
"Perhaps I should get a costume." He said quite seriously.
"Perhaps you should."
"Well I might do that."
"Good but call me Lois Lane and I'll never talk to you again." Jack laughed.
"Oh I won't."
"So anything else I should know?" Ianto said playfully.
"I've kept every copy since it was first published in 1938."
"Hang on I haven't made it to S in the archives yet, is that what I'm going to find?" Ianto asked smiling Jack looked innocent but it didn't work before his trademark grin broke through and he nodded. Ianto started to laugh. "What else do you have filed down there?"
"X-men are in X." Ianto looked at him in disbelief.
"Please tell me I'm not going to find porn under P." Jack looked at him in shock as if he would ever do such a thing.
"I think I moved it all."
"Out of interest where are you storing your 'personal' CCTV DVD collection?"
"Why you want to watch it with me?" Ianto swallowed.
"Maybe or I could just be worried it's under I in the archives which makes me think you may have other footage of others and I'm starting to wonder if I'm going to find stuff I don't want to."
"It's not in the archives it's in my personal safe and there is only footage of you, I promise."
"But surely there's lots from other...err...past torchwood lovers." Jack shook his head.
"There is one other DVD and that's it."
"Do you mind if I ask why?" Jack smiled.
"Of course not, she was very special to me the footage is a personal video given to me by the Doctor from a girl names Rose Tyler I travelled with her and the Doctor she gave it to me to remember her by." Ianto looked sadly at Jack. "we didn't love one another. I was a love as friends more than anything but she was fantastic." Ianto hung his head.
"I'm sorry." Jack smiled.
"It's alright, I left the Doctor for you, you are what I want Ianto and your all that matters so I will always have those videos of us and they aren't all... well you know."
"Well I know they aren't now." Ianto smiled looking Jack in the eyes and neither of them seemed able to break the others gaze.
"Oh Ianto Jones you are one of a kind." Ianto smiled and didn't say anything. "You are anything and everything I could possibly want." Ianto blushed. "I love that, and I love your laugh and the noises you make when we are together and I love your coffee and your sarcasm and how trusting and loyal you are and I love you...I just love you!" Ianto looked at him almost shyly.
"and I love you too...I love your smile and I love your coat and your hero complex...and to copy what you've just said quite frankly I just love you several times all over." Jack laughed.
"We should do this more often."
"Do what more often?" Ianto asked.
"Just sit together, flirt, tell each other what we are thinking you know do coupley things." Ianto raised a sceptical eyebrow.
"Isn't that a little too domestic for you?" Jacks face twitched into a frown.
"Nothing is ever too domestic with you." Ianto smiled slightly.
"You'll get bored, I know you."
"I won't I'll never bore of you, why won't you believe me?"
"Part of me won't let me it's a survival complex I think." Jack smiled.
"Alright I understand that."
"I'm glad you do because I don't!" Jack smiled.
"You know you could just let yourself believe it." Jack said kissing Ianto before just getting up and moving inside. Ianto lay down on the roof of the boat crossing his arms behind his head he looked up at the clouds slowly floating across the sky. He thought about what Jack had said, he could so easily let himself believe Jack but if he did that would be it no last defence. Every single defence would have gone he'd have nothing left not one thing just left to him Jack would have everything and he'd still not have all of Jack, there was still so much he didn't know about Jack. Maybe he should just give in he wanted to he just could not let himself, he felt so stupid he knew Jack was telling him the truth he just had to fight against his own self doubt he could keep Jack easily. Now he just had to remember that.
"How is our trusted leader today?" Tosh asked Jack over her sandwich. He carefully considered the question and munched on a packed of crisp. The engineer was busy working on the engine. Tosh looked at him expectantly.
"I just wish Ianto would trust me."
"He does trust you." Tosh said confused.
"It's not really trust it's that he doesn't believe that I'll never get bored of him, he keeps thinking I'm going to leave him and I'm not." Tosh smiled sadly.
"He's always been guarded Jack, you have to give him more time."
"It just hurts slightly that he thinks that I don't love him enough to stay with him till..." Jack trailed off and Tosh understood.
"I don't know Jack maybe trust him with something you've never trusted to someone else." Jack thought a moment before nodding.
"Yeh maybe your right."
"Or just give him time, just think when your both cosy in your flat snuggled up together he'll realise he's got you for good. Then he'll run!" they laughed.
"Yeh thanks for that."
"You're welcome." Tosh grinned and the nudged Jack. "Come on cheer up you're starting a life with the man you love." Jack grinned.
"Yeh, I'm so lucky."
"Yes you are, can't believe you got Ianto life is so unfair!" they laughed again.
"I know, he is fantastic."
"Should my ears be burning?" Ianto appeared carrying a tray loaded with mugs.
"Probably." Tosh smiled sweetly and Ianto handed out mugs before handing one down to the worker. He hopped up and sat next to Jack. Pressing a kiss to his lips, he smiled and sipped his coffee. Owen had gone for a walk with Gwen into the local town see if they could find anything interesting.
"How much longer do you think we are going to be stuck here?" Jack asked. Ianto shrugged.
"No idea." Ianto looked at Jack.
"What?" Ianto smiled.
"Nothing." Ianto said to quickly.
"Ianto, what is it?" Tosh saw this as a point to escape.
"I'm going to leave you two to it." She said quickly getting up. Jack looked at Ianto.
"So you going to tell me what's up?" he smiled.
"Nothings up." Jack looked unconvinced. "Nothing is up Jack I promise."
"Yeh alright." Ianto rolled his eyes.
"Why do you never believe me?" he laughed.
"I do believe you." Jack said softly. Now it was Iantos turn to look disbelieving before they both burst out laughing.
"Well you're up and running it should be fine from now on." Ianto nodded and smiled.
"That's great thanks."
"Right I'll be off enjoy the rest of your holiday." The workman turned and left and Owen went and started the engine. They pulled off and Ianto went to make everyone another coffee. They intended to get as far as they could till it got dark and then stop off and eat. They managed to get quite a long way before it was dark.
"Come on pub." Jack said grinning. They did not need telling twice they all piled out and Ianto locked up. Before they walked about 100metres to the pub, they ordered drinks and then settled in a quiet corner of the pub.
"I'm not looking forward to going back to work." Owen moaned.
"Same this is such a great holiday." Gwen said.
"Yes and our boss is such a pain." Ianto said grinning. Jack smiled and raised his eyebrows.
"Yeh the first thing to do when you get back is get to work on the other half of the archives." Ianto groaned.
"I really can't wait."
They all sat in the living room, Ianto broke the silence and got up.
"Right I'm off to bed."
"You coming Jack?"
"Yes, put your ear plugs in kids." He teased and he followed Ianto down the corridor. Jack grabbed Ianto once they were in the room and kissed him fiercely.
"God I've been wanting to do this all day." Jack growled pulling Iantos clothes off and pushing him down onto the before pulling his own t-shirt off and trousers and lying on top of Ianto kissing him again. Iantos arms snaked around Jack body pulling him closer and kissing him, tongues battling for dominance.
"I believe you." Ianto gasped as Jack kissed him frantically.
"What?" Jack asked confused and Ianto looked up into his eyes repeating what he said.
"I believe you." Jack still looked confused. "Don't make me say it." Ianto almost pleaded. Jack looked at him; Ianto threw his head back then looked him back in the eyes. "I believe that you're not going to get bored of me. I believe you alright. I trust you. Oh God I believe you and I love you." Jack didn't move and Ianto looked up suddenly petrified he'd said the wrong thing. "and if you do leave me I am going to shoot you!" Ianto added and he let out a nervous laugh and then Jack smiled and kissed him passionately.
"Well at least you warned me." Ianto let out a huffing breath. "Thank you." Jack said smiling lovingly down at Ianto. "I know that was hard for you." Ianto smiled shaking his head.
"No it wasn't. I love you and that's all I needed to remember."
