A/N: I was Christmas shopping today and it inspired me to write this! Hope you all enjoy it! Dedicated to Gwento-Addict for helping me with the price of belstaff jackets and what to buy Owen.

Ianto leant on the window of the SUV as it sped along the street. He entertained himself by watching families shopping and parents bustling with dozens of bags and kids complaining about not being allowed to buy things. The weather was foggy and cold but no one seemed to care, the Christmas spirit was overpowering everything and wiping out stress and worry. Ianto yawned and leant back as he felt a warm hand caress his own.

"You're looking good today, Yan." Jack smiled at Ianto as he drove.

"Shouldn't you be looking at the road?" Ianto replied bitterly.

"What's up with you?" Jack furrowed his brow. "You've been snappy all day, even though we're going Christmas shopping."

"I'm not a big fan of Christmas; it's just another time of year which reminds me I'm on my own." Ianto rested his head on the window.

"Not this year." Jack shook his head glancing at Ianto before returning his gaze to the road. "We're spending this as a couple, didn't I say that last week?"

"Yeah, but we've been so busy this past week with the increase in weevils and then those lights in the sky, we've barely seen each other all week. I've been all alone at night." Ianto sighed.

"Aww, did you miss me?" Jack grinned. "Can't you live without me?"

Ianto felt a smile forming on his lips, Jack always did that to him and it was damn annoying when he was trying to make a point. But it was one of the great things about Captain Jack Harkness; he was the bringer of joy, to Ianto anyway, other people were likely to debate.

The SUV rolled into a car park and Jack drove around for a few minutes, looking for a parking spot. Once he had found one, he parked and jumped out of the car and opened the door for Ianto.

"Cheers." Ianto smiled as he climbed out. He straightened his tie and brushed his waistcoat down before joining Jack who was striding across the car park, a grin planted on his face. Jack took Ianto's hand and they walked down the pavement. Ianto blushed; he was actually going public with Jack and as great as it felt, it was scary. Jack dragged him into the first shop they came across and Jack eagerly browsed the shelves. The Christmas spirit was enveloping Jack already. Jack turned and looked at Ianto who displayed a similar expression to a young boy in a clothes store with his mum. Ianto gazed around the shop, Jack had taken them into a shop filled with soaps and bath salts, and it was a rather girly shop.

"Jack, you are aware of what shop we're in, right?" Ianto asked quietly.

"Yeah, I'm looking for gifts for Tosh." Jack nodded. "Help me?"

"Fine." Ianto agreed. "If we're celebrating Christmas as a couple does that mean we only buy one gift and put from Jack and Ianto?" Ianto asked.

"Yeah, I suppose." Jack shrugged.

"That's a plus then." Ianto smiled.

"How about this?" Jack asked, holding up a bath set filled with lavender scented shower gels and soaps. "For Tosh?"

"Yeah, ok." Ianto nodded. "Get her something else as well."

"I'm not made of money, Ianto!" Jack exclaimed.

"You have fifteen thousand pounds in your bank." Ianto raised his eyebrows. "And more in your safe."

"Yeah, well…" Jack nodded; Ianto had proven him wrong yet again. Jack paid for the bath set and they left the shop and continued down the street, their fingers intertwined.

"Do you think she'll like it?" Jack inquired, holding up a belstaff jacket.

"I don't know, Jack." Ianto repeated.

"Yeah, but do you…" Jack began.

"I don't know!" Ianto rolled his eyes. "But she likes stuff like that doesn't she?"

"Yeah." Jack agreed. "What if she already has it?! Does she have it?"

"I don't know!" Ianto exclaimed. "I don't know everything about Gwen."

"Hmm I'll get it anyway." Jack smiled before moving to the counter and handing the jacket over.

"600 pounds." The saleswoman smiled politely.

"How much?!" Ianto breathed. But Jack didn't seem so fazed and handed the money over. "Trust you to fork out for Gwen bloody Cooper. I hope you're planning to spend that much on me." Ianto muttered once they had exited the shop.

"You're so miserable. Cheer up, Yan." Jack smiled and kissed Ianto softly on the lips in the middle of the street.

"You've never done that before." Ianto blushed.

"I'm pretty certain I've kissed you before. Have you been taking retcon?" Jack laughed.

"No, Jack." Ianto smirked. "I meant you've never kissed me in public before."

"Oh, well, get used to it." Jack smiled before planting another kiss on Ianto's lips just as a teenage boy walked past.

"Get a room, faggots." The boy muttered. Jack shot him a glare and turned back to Ianto.

"Ignore him." He smiled.

"It's ok." Ianto sighed. "I suppose we better get used to that too. Not everyone in Cardiff is as sweet as you."

"Come on, we have presents to buy." Jack grinned before grabbing Ianto's hand and dragging him into the next shop.

----------------

Jack sat on the bench and gazed around the vast amount of shops, mulling over which one to go in next.

"One present left." Jack mumbled.

"yeah." Ianto tutted. "How about porn?"

"As appreciative as Owen would be, I'm not buying porn." Jack shook his head with a laugh.

"A playboy magazine?" Ianto offered.

"No, not buying one of those either."

"Beer?"

"Perfect." Jack nodded before heading for the closest supermarket.

--------------

"Now we can just browse." Jack smiled as they left Asda. "Come on." Jack grinned and led Ianto to a Boots store.

"Why?" Ianto raised one eyebrow.

"Coz we can." Jack laughed. The automatic doors slid open and they were met with a smell of cleanliness and perfume and aftershave. Jack grabbed a basket and threw in some shampoos and aftershaves. Then they reached the next aisle. A sign hung over a certain section which read: Condoms. Jack walked over to them and held up to boxes.

"Which flavour, Ianto?" Jack asked, loud enough that people in the next aisle heard them and gave them dirty looks. Parents glared at them as they walked along side their children. "Lemon, Lime or normal?"

"Jack…" Ianto blushed.

"Go on." Jack pushed. Then he caught sight of another. "Ooh raspberry! Limited addition! How about those and the lemon? We can mix and match then; one wears lemon one wears raspberry!" Jack laughed.

"Oh, god. Jack." Ianto groaned.

"I wonder where they sell handcuffs!" Jack grinned as they moved across the store. He said it even louder than before and lots of people turned and stared at them. "I was thinking leather ones this time. What do you think?" Jack asked.

"Jack!!!" Ianto exclaimed. "People are looking!"

"Let them!" Jack shrugged. "So we're talking about sex openly. Everyone has it, just coz we're talking about it means we're disgusting does it?"

"Well… I suppose not." Ianto smiled. "I love you, Jack Harkness. Took a shot there…"

"I love you too." Jack replied with a smile and kissed Ianto softly. He paid for the items and left. They went back to the SUV and put the bags in the boot before sitting in the car. Jack started the car and leant over and kissed Ianto again. The car rolled out of the car park and down the street.
