Title: Bloodlust

Pairings/Characters: Jack/Ianto, Captain Jack Harkness, Ianto Jones, Owen Harper, Toshiko Sato, Gwen Williams

Warnings: Not sure at the moment, I'm betting for Fluff and Angst though

Summary: Here's my weird way of explaining this one: Ianto is bitten by an alien which slowly changes him. Can the Team stop the effects before it's too late?

Author Notes: …why do I always write it with the question at the end of the summary…it's like…dum dum dum!!!! I couldn't come up with a name for this story so I stole it from a TV show, so special thanks to them. Okay I'm done.
Disclaimer: I wish I owned Torchwood, if I did, Ianto wouldn't be put in all these life or death situations, he'd be in my room. But I don't, sorry. I don't own the name of the story either, sorry guys.

Chapter Four – Teething

"Ianto, you know that it is more than welcome for you to put Owen on decaf?" Jack smirked as he closed the door to his office.

"Don't worry, I will."

"I know you say you're fine, but you should rest." Jack said caringly.

"I'm fine Jack, really. I'll probably be back to normal by the end of the day."

"I don't know Yan…"

Ianto gave up on telling Jack, pinning him against the desk and kissing him fiercely.

"Ianto, as much as I love you like this…" Jack mumbled before losing control and kissing him back.

Ianto grinned into the kiss as he felt Jack reciprocate. He nibbled lightly on Jack's lower lip, pouting when the older man pulled back.

"Ianto, you're not usually this…forward, strong." Jack said, unable to contain his grin but rubbing at his lower lip.

"Well maybe I should be."

"I like you like this but, you almost made my lip bleed. Since when are you so rough?"

Ianto's eyes widened as he moved close to Jack again, looking over his lip.

"I wasn't being rough, I swear. I was as rough as I normally am." Ianto's fingers ghosted over the bruising lip.

"No, you might need to figure out your strength."

"I'm sorry Jack." Ianto sighed.

"It's alright Yan." Jack smiled.

"No it isn't."

Jack pushed forward, kissing Ianto lightly, reassuringly, slipping his tongue between Ianto's parted lips.

He pulled away suddenly and Ianto looked up at him worriedly, "What did I do?"

"It's your teeth Ianto." Jack's eyes were wide with worry, "Open you're mouth Yan, please? I just want to check."

Ianto hesitated but opened his mouth. Jack ghosted his hand over the Welshman's cheek as he looked carefully at his teeth.

"You're teeth…they're changing." Jack mumbled, looking into the younger man's eyes.

"What do you mean?"

"They're sharper. What are the teeth like on that creature?"

"We can check, Owen's got it there, ready for an autopsy."

Owen opened the creature's mouth to show the others its teeth and Jack groaned in frustration as he saw it.

"This thing is changing you into one of them." Jack's voice wavered as he said it, looking into the Welshman's eyes.

Ianto felt part of him breaking as he saw the unshed tears in the older man's eyes, "We'll figure it out Jack."

"It's not fair that you're going through this. I shouldn't have taken you on that assignment!" Jack punched the wall angrily.

"Jack! Listen to me." Ianto grabbed his arms to stop him from going any further, "We. Will. Figure. This. Out."

Owen cleared his throat, getting their attention.

"You have no idea how long I've been waiting for an excuse to say this but, you guys need to stop all kissing."

"Why?" Jack asked, hating the idea of not kissing Ianto, he was hard enough to ignore as it was.

"We don't know how this is transferred. I doubt it's in saliva, otherwise you would've felt the burning by now…"

"How did you know we were kissing?" Ianto blurted out before blushing fiercely.

"I'm not stupid. Anyway, you almost broke skin. I'm worried that when those teeth develop properly, you may cause some trouble if you bite anyone. Jack, I don't know how much longer he'll be Ianto. We need to find the cure for this and fast."

Jack looked over at Ianto fearfully and quickly kissed him, earning a glare from Owen.

"What did I just say Jack!?"

"Last one, I promise." Jack smirked, "How is the blood scan coming along?"

"It's ready."

"Tell the others that we're having a meeting in ten minutes."

Owen nodded, walking into the main hub and leaving Ianto and Jack alone together.

"I'll be honest, I'm really scared now Jack." Ianto whispered.

Jack pressed his forehead to the younger man's, hugging him close.

"You won't have to deal with this alone. I'll be right here okay?"

Ianto looked up, keeping his head on the older man's. He looked deep into the captain's dark blue eyes and smiled, feeling the reassurance he had been longing for.

"God, I wish I could kiss you right now."

Jack chuckled and moved his head to kiss the younger man's cheek.

"Looks like that's all you'll get from me for now." Jack sighed.

Hmm…something is Suss…I liked this chapter, reading through it. Reviews make me feel HAPPY!! Hehe.
