I didn't actually manage to get any done yesterday, I was getting 'mummy practice' by babysitting my brother's step-daughter. We baked, and believe me, my kitchen has never seen so much mess... We did have lots of fun though :)
This chapters for the lovely people who have reviewed so far :)
Hope you enjoy :)
P.s – this chapter contains a bit of Gwen bashing, so I'm sorry to anyone who does actually like her! x
"Thanks Ianto" The welsh woman said, not looking up from her screen as Ianto placed her cup of coffee down
Ianto gave her a tight lipped smiled before moving on to give Tosh her coffee
"Actually, wait" she said turning round to him "You spend a lot of time with Jack right? Do you know if he's free tonight?"
Ianto bit his lip
"Erm, I actually think he's busy" Ianto replied 'we're going out to dinner' he thought to himself smugly
"Ok, no matter" she smiled "He's obviously playing hard to get"
"Excuse me?" Ianto asked
"Well isn't it obvious?" she asked, laughing slightly, "he wants me but he doesn't want me to know that, that's why he's dating some poor woman, who probably is head over heels in love with him and thinks he's in love with her when really he's thinking of me the whole time" she smiled brightly "I thought it was obvious"
Ianto plastered a fake smile on his face, resisting the urge to throw her coffee all over her
"Interesting theory Gwen, I don't know, I think this new 'woman' of his is pretty something"
"Whatever Ianto" she dismissed and turned back to her computer screen
He rolled his eyes before moving on to give Tosh her coffee. Tosh had seen and heard the incident and put her arm round Ianto ans whispered in his ear
"Ignore her, she's just jealous"
Ianto pushed his lips together into a tight smile
"Yeah, your probably right" but then why couldn't he get rid of the feeling in the pit of his stomach?
Later that day when everyone had gone home and only Jack and Ianto remained Ianto was washing up in the kitchen and hadn't said a word to Jack since his conversation with Gwen. Jack was somewhat confused to what he had done wrong and approached him in the kitchen
"Yann, you've not been up in my office all day, have I done something wrong?" he asked snaking his arms round Ianto's waist from behind, only for Ianto to stiffen up
"Why don't you ask the 'love of your life'" he snapped back
"What?" Jack asked confused "I though I just had..."
"Not according to Gwen" he huffed before relaying the conversation he'd had earlier, by the end of it Jack's arms were crossed and his facial expression was showing a mixture of hurt and anger
"And you believed her?" he asked "Is that what you think you mean to me?"
"Well... it was just the way she said it..."
"No Ianto, I mean it, I love you, I have never loved anyone as much as I love you and probably never will"
Ianto bit his lip, feeling like an idiot
"Gwen means nothing to me, you hear me?"
Ianto nodded, looking at his feet
"I'm sorry..."
Jack smiled and pulled Ianto into a hug
"I love you Ianto Jones, totally and exclusively, I'm all yours"
Ianto looked up at him and smiled, pressing their lips together softly
"And I'm yours exclusively"
Jack smiled before deepening the kiss only to stop as he heard a gasp at the doorway, he kept his arms round Ianto and turned his head to her
"Forget anything Gwen?"
"I erm... doesn't matter" she mumbled turning around and out the hub
Jack laughed and leant his forehead against Ianto's before kissing him again, taking him out for dinner and taking him back to Ianto's flat. The next day at work Gwen was... quiet to say the least, Tosh was exceedingly happy that Gwen had finally met her match. Ianto didn't care, he had Jack and that was all that mattered to him.
Hope you liked :)
I don't know when they'll be more up, I'm hoping to get more done before my husband takes me camping next week (18 weeks pregnant and camping, I'm thrilled... not!)
Love and hugs,
Em xxxx
