The six of them all sat down on the nearest, softest thing they could find and sighed together. Saving the world from Sleepers was tiring work and the idea of facing the paperwork just moments after seemed traumatising. Owen had curled himself into the sofa occasionally kicking Gwen who was resting on Jack. Tosh was leaning back on her chair and Melody was propped on Ianto's lap who sat on Gwen's desk.
"No paperwork, please no paperwork Jack" Melody begged pouting "let us go home early, I need to untraumatise myself from Owen's suggestion"
"What did Owen suggest?" Jack asked tiredly
"An end of the world orgy" Ianto said looking disgusted
"Well as much as that idea is tempting" Jack said "I'm not interested"
"You know I reckon the Doctor would have a heart attack if he heard you say that" Gwen muttered.
"To my defence I reckon when the world truly ends there is an orgy" Owen said shouting in the cushion
"Owen I have been to the end of the world and we were all to busy trying not to be fried. Bloody plastic surgery obsessed trampoline tried to kill us all during the event" Gwen said
The others exchanged confused looks, but let it slip, later they'll corner Gwen into telling the story.
"I suggest we send Ianto out to get lots of Chinese and we have a party" Jack said "we can talk about useless stuff and lay back. Paperwork will come tomorrow after Ianto hands out the hangover cure"
Within an hour the six of them were sitting in the boardroom scoffing Chinese down while talking about Ianto's and Melody's wedding plans.
"Well I was thinking something small" Melody said "just you guys, my Mum, my Brother and his brood and Ianto's parents. Ianto over there wants to invite everyone we know including the bloomin' pizza girl"
"You shouldn't invite everyone" Gwen said "it would be ridiculous"
"That's what I said" Melody exclaimed waving her chopsticks "how many did you and Jack have at your wedding?"
"Err…I can't recall. Can you Jack?"
"Gwen I can't even remember the ceremony, one minute we're snogging in the men's loo the next we're in bed with a wedding ring on our finger"
"Sounds like snogging in the men's loo is a hobby of yours" Owen said remembering how Jack and Gwen were reunited.
"WHAT?" Ianto yelped "you don't even remember your own wedding? That's disgraceful" Everyone groaned knowing a full on lecture about weddings was going to commence. "Weddings are the most precious ceremonies there is, it should be a celebration of love shared with everyone you know and care for. It should be a memory cherished forever and something never forgotten"
"Well be woken up by a screaming banshee is certainly memorable" Jack muttered being rewarded by a slap from Gwen "kidding darling, kidding" he protested.
"Well then that settles it" Ianto says happily "I'll plan it for you two to re-new your vows"
Everyone sat there in silence.
"What?" Gwen said weakly
"Well if you can't remember your own wedding why not?" Ianto said "besides if you let me and Melody plan it we'll get ourselves a rough idea about what we want. You can invite your sister and this Doctor guy (who we really should meet since he helps save the world) and whoever else you can think off. Really all you have to do is turn up where I tell you to"
"Sounds like a good plan" Jack said
"WHAT? Jack you can't seriously think that this is a good idea, we haven't been married for that long" Gwen said
"How long have you two been married?" Ianto asked
"Two years" Gwen said
"148 years in May" Jack said at the same time
"148 years and you don't even remember the wedding, that settles it doesn't it?" Ianto said "call your sister when I get you a date Gwen"
Gwen groaned and glared at Jack who was whistling innocently. "You wanted this to happen didn't you?"
"If it means I get a second honeymoon – actually it would be our first – then yes I did." Jack said cheerfully.
"Moving from weddings and such" Owen said "have you noticed the date recently?"
Tosh started bouncing up and down in her chair happily, Ianto smiled at her and Jack sniggered while Melody and Gwen looked confused.
"Toshiko loooooooooooooves Tom" Jack sang "she wants to kiss him, she wants to hold him, she wants to shag him"
"I'm not denying it" Tosh said with a blush staining her cheeks "he's a lovely man"
"Who is frozen 364 days a year and only knows you for what four days? He follows you like a lovesick puppy it makes me want to puke" Owen said
"Someone's jealous" Gwen muttered to Melody.
"Well in two weeks you Gwen Harkness and you Melody Winters will get to meet Tosh's gentlemen" Jack said as if Owen hadn't spoken.
Authors note: yes another cheat instead of an actual episode but I wanted to get some bonding time for the team and I wanted to find a way to get Rose and the Doctor to join them for an episode. Please read and review.
