"Where's Ianto?" Owen asked as he walked into the hub. The first thing he noticed was the fact that Jack was sat on the sofa alone.
"Archives," Jack answered with a smile. "Believe it or not he told me to leave him on alone because he couldn't concentrate on the work," He laughed.
"I can actually believe that," Owen grinned.
"I'm surprised at how well he's fitting in," Suzie commented from her desk. Owen practically jumped out of his skin, he hadn't noticed that she was there.
"Bloody hell woman!" Owen groaned. "Ringing bell or something." The cog door rolled open and Toshiko walked in with a cardboard tray of coffees. She handed them out and gave Ianto's to Jack.
Jack wondered down to the archives. He grinned when he wasn't instantly covered in dust. The place looked completely different, he shuddered at the thought that this place could be mistaken for the archives at Torchwood one.
"Ianto!" Jack called, the archives seemed to have gotten bigger since he was last down there.
"Down here!" Ianto called back, Jack tried to follow the voice but he seemed to be getting lost. It took him five minutes to find Ianto, and he couldn't help but smile at the site he saw; Ianto was on his knees in front of a filing cabinet, his top was covered in sweat and his jacket was thrown carefully on the floor.
"Looks brilliant," Jack chirped. "But I think you need a break."
"I'm almost done with this case," Ianto sighed.
"You can finish it later, come on." Jack practically grabbed Ianto up and forced him away from the archives. "You're such a perfectionist," Jack mocked making Ianto glare at him.
"Am not!"
"Oh you so are," Jack smiled. "But that's good."
"Morning Ianto." Owen smiled.
"Morning," Ianto smiled back cheerfully. "Can I use the shower?"
"You don't have to ask," Jack laughed. "You know where it is?"
"Yeah," Ianto replied.
"Towels are in my bunker," Jack said and watched with a smile as Ianto walked off, coffee in hand.
"He seems to be fitting in really well," Toshiko smiled.
"A word of advice, don't go down into the Archives if you want to get a good bollocking!"
"So that's why you went down there," Toshiko giggled. "So, you and him haven't done anything right?"
"I said I wouldn't," Jack sighed. "Though it's getting rather hard not to make a move..."
"I don't think I want to know!" Owen laughed. There was a loud beeping noise coming from the computers, Jack walked around to Toshiko's computer to see what was happening.
"Weevil at the hospital," She told him. "Just one."
"Owen, come on." Jack grinned. Weevil hunting was one of his favourite activities. He blamed the doctor for that, it involved a lot of running something the doctor seemed to love to do. "Tell Ianto we'll be back in a bit," Jack said before rushing off with Owen.
Ianto smiled as the hot water washed the tension away in his muscles. It had been a good night last night, becoming part of the team, finding something he was good at in the hub even if it was just cleaning it still gave him a purpose. He was glad that the rest of the team wasn't acting strange around him because he was different. He guessed it had something to do with them being there from the beginning.
He stayed in the shower for forty minutes, he couldn't help but laugh. Technically he was twenty one years old, well that's what Toshiko had written up on his birth certificate, and this was his first shower. He laughed at the thought as he got dressed, he decided to try one of the suits Jack had brought him. He smiled as the cotton touched his skin, he looked in one of the mirrors and grinned. He looked good.
He walked up into the main area of the hub and noticed that two people were missing. "They've gone to catch a weevil," Toshiko called out.
Ianto had read about weevils in the Archives, he knew they had weevils in the cells downstairs and nodded in understanding. "Said they'll be back soon." Suzie added.
"You fancy coming to get some coffee?" Toshiko asked.
"I'd love too," Ianto smiled. He was hoping he would be able to go for a walk with Jack today, he had decided he liked walking. Even if it wasn't with Jack walking felt good. And he needed to make friends with Toshiko, because one day Jack would leave them and he didn't want to be left on his own.
