THANKS AGAIN FOR SUCH WONDERFUL REVIEWS!
NOW, UNFORTUNATELY I AM GOING BACK TO SCHOOL ON TUESDAY -groan
AND AS SUCH, UPDATES WILL PROBABLY BE LESS FREQUENT, HOWEVER, KEEP THE REVIEWS COMING AND I HOPE YOU ENJOY!!
Ianto strode in to the club, quietly humming 'Night Fever.' It was his eighth night in the club and still nothing unusual had happened. In fact, the rest of the team were starting to doubt Owen's accusations, but he remained stubborn that something weird was occurring. So Ianto was still working there.
"Hey Tom!" a man called from the bar. Ianto waved and sent a message to Tosh saying he was in position. Gwen and Jack (or Jacqueline and Sven) kept making frequent visits, sometimes separately, sometimes together to the pub to keep an eye on Ianto and to make it convincing he had a life outside of the club.
This time it was only a matter of minutes before the two of them came bounding up to Ianto at the bar.
"She can't keep away from ya, hey?" Jack the manager chuckled as he passed by Ianto. Ianto was coming to the conclusion that the manager liked Gwen as he always seemed to appear more frequently when she was there, however, he could not ask him this because of the manager's marital status.
"Y'know," the manager said, stopping by Ianto's side and placing a hand on his shoulder "Considering you two are an item," he gestured at Gwen and Ianto "I haven't seen you ever…get intimate…at all!"
"Of course we do! We just prefer not to canoodle in public!" Gwen answered quickly.
"Oh come on! Just one little snog!" the manager said "Just so I know that you haven't been telling fibs!" he hiccoughed. Ianto noticed a hint of sherry in his breath.
Captain Jack glanced at Ianto. It looked like he was going to have to kiss Gwen. Ianto slowly leant over the bar to be met by Gwen in the middle. Just then, the door to the club opened. A draft of air flew around the club, blowing in a group of about seven rowdy men. The captain turned away from them, back to the scene unfolding in front of him.
"Gwen?!" an unsure voice said from the group of men. The Captain whipped around as Ianto and Gwen broke apart and saw a stricken Rhys.
"Ja, that is me!" Jack screamed hastily and grabbed Rhys' arm, dragging him in to the men's.
"Well, that wasn't so hard? Was it?" the manager said, slowly walking away.
Ianto and Gwen just looked at each other.
--
"WHAT'S GOING ON?!" Rhys roared at Jack who was holding him in a tight grip as Rhys struggled to return to the bar.
"Rhys! Rhys! Listen to me!" Jack said, slamming the man in to the wall. "If you don't shut up you'll ruin this operation!"
Rhys quietened and stopped struggling so viciously. "You mean to tell me, that this is for a job?"
"Yes. We panicked. The manager overheard Ianto on the phone. He thought that Jack (ie. Me) was Ianto's girlfriend. So Gwen is Jacq. (for Jacqueline), Ianto is called Tom and I'm…Sven. So don't act surprised when I sound Swedish. Now…"
"Wait…" Rhys said, looking severe. "Your hair…is…is…" he then broke in to peals of laughter. "Oh dear! It looks…nice." He said chuckling.
"Thanks, your wife did it. Now…" (Rhys automatically stopped laughing) "We need to think how you know me…and you should probably have an alias in case they check up on us."
"Oh, I don't mind…"
"We should probably have a Welsh name…like…um…"
"Me cousin's called Kai."
"Perfect!" the two made to walk outside.
"Bloomin' heck." Rhys said in a quiet voice. "When I walked through that door…I didn't know what to think! I thought it was always you I had to watch out for!"
"Yeah, well, don't worry Rhys." Jack said "Gwen loves you. She really does. And no matter what it seems like, I do love her, but like a sister. My heart is with someone else." Jack was not sure what had brought this on. It was his first time he had confessed he was in love to anyone in years. There was something about the hurt, jealousy and slight anger he and Rhys shared when they saw Gwen and Ianto share that kiss that made Jack tell him. And he felt good for it."
"Good…should I er, watch out for this Ianto?"
Jack smiled. "No, I don't think he'll ever be a problem where Gwen is concerned."
