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 looks like some Smut too.

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 Nine – Touch

Gwen had gone to help Owen and check up with things with Tosh. Jack and Ianto sat next to each other, the thick sheet of glass separating them. Jack looked at the floor and Ianto stared up at him.

"It's kind of funny." Ianto chuckled, "I always thought I'd be the one to drop the 'L' bomb."

"I meant it."

"I just, there have been so many times when I've wanted to say it but couldn't."

"It slipped out." Jack smiled and looked up at Ianto, "But I'm sorry if I said it at the wrong time."

"This isn't exactly the way it went in my head." Ianto sighed.

"How did it go then?" Jack asked curiously.

"Well, ifyou were ever to say it, I would've snogged you senseless."

"Damn, that sounds so good." Jack groaned.

"I wish I could touch you Jack. I feel like I haven't touched you in so long."

"Me too Yan, a kiss, a hug, anything would do. Only a little bit longer." Jack pressed his hand to the glass.

Ianto smiled at the older man and moved his hand to match Jack's on the other side of the glass.

"I was hoping that the first time it was openly said, we'd be alone." Ianto murmured.

"I'm sorry, I didn't realize."

"It's okay, because we're alone now." Ianto paused as he looked into Jack's shimmering blue eyes, "I love you Jack."

Jack grinned over at Ianto, "See, now that's not fair. Now I want to snog you senseless."

Ianto laughed and looked down at the floor.

"How are you feeling?" Jack asked caringly, "Any better."

"I do except for the nausea from knowing what that stuff was." Ianto groaned.

"I'm really sorry Yan."

"Stop apologizing."

"Sorry." Jack grinned cheekily.

"You should go check on the others." Ianto smiled over at him, trying to hide his teeth as he did.

"I am not moving from this spot until I can wrap my arms around you."

"Go Jack, I'll be okay. Just hurry the hell up."

"Are you sure you're okay?" Jack asked cautiously.

"Do you want me to be blunt and straight to the point or to lie through my rapidly sharpening teeth?"

Jack glared at the cheeky look on the younger man's face before sighing, "Blunt."

"I'm scared and feel sick to my stomach. That blood actually tasted good. I can feel myself changing. Just go and check on Owen, he's almost finished." Ianto smiled reassuringly.

"How do you know?" Jack quirked an eyebrow.

"I have killer hearing remember?"

"…I'll be quick."

Owen started to smirk as he poured a liquid into a tube.

"What is it Owen?" Tosh smiled, feeling a little bit better when she saw him smile.

"Just one more thing and I'm done."

Gwen jumped up and ran over to Owen, hugging him briefly before letting him finish.

"You're the best doctor ever to have graced the world." Gwen said, rushing to Tosh to hug her too.

"Jack will be so pleased."

They turned as they heard rushed footsteps, "How much longer will we have to wait?"

"Ta da!" Owen grinned proudly as he held up the dark liquid, "All done. Keep in mind that this has never been trialed so I don't know if this will work for sure."

Jack grinned and ran over to Owen, pulling him into a bone crushing hug, "You're my hero."

"Jack, I made it stronger so that he could drink it because the needles can't take his skin. We just slip this through the holes in the cell door and let him drink it." Owen explained, handing him the test tube.

"Let's do this."
