Chapter 20

A few weeks after John Hart's visit, it was time for another visit – Alice's. Things had gone back to normal after the kissing incident, and the couple stayed at Jack's practically all of the time. Over breakfast, the day before Alice's arrival, Ianto and Jack talked about their weekend.

'Do you want me to go back to my flat for a few days? So that you can have some time to yourselves?' Ianto said to Jack.

'No, no I don't,' Jack answered, 'I want you here, with us. I want her to see what we're really like, together.'

'Ok,' Ianto smiled, 'so what do you want to do?'

'Oh, I don't know, she'll be arriving tomorrow night, by train, and then I thought we would just watch a movie and have a take away, and then show her around town on Saturday… Do you have any ideas for Sunday morning, before she leaves?'

'We could always go to brunch, there's this new café down by the Plass, it looks nice…'

'Sounds good, we'll have a sleep-in, and then go have brunch before going to the station… So, do we have a little time before we have to leave for work? I know something I'd like to do before we have company…' he smiled at his lover, raising one eye-brow suggestively.

'Hmm, initiative, I like it… I'll race you to the bedroom!' Ianto grinned before setting of towards their bedroom.

Ianto left Jack to pick Alice up alone, so that they would have some time just the two of them, and also for Jack to be able to ask if it was ok that Ianto spent the weekend with them.

As Ianto hadn't received a text telling him to leave, he was in the kitchen when the front door to Jack's flat opened, and Alice bounced in. When she saw him, she ran up to him and threw his arms around his neck and he, despite his initial surprise, spun her around as he hugged her.

'Hey, Alice! Nice seeing you!' he smiled at her, as he put her down.

'It's nice to see you too, Ianto! I'm really glad you're spending the weekend with us!' she said happily.

Ianto glanced at Jack, to see if he had prompted her to say this, but her father gestured that no, this was all her, and they both felt warm inside.

The three of them spent the evening with pizzas, cokes and watched the two first Harry Potter-films, before Ianto and Jack fell asleep tangled into each other on the sofa, and before going to bed herself, Alice put a quilt over them and took a photo of them with her camera, and then she tiptoed to her bedroom.
