Disclaimer: I don't own Torchwood, or the characters.
A/N: Episode title = drabble title. It's just easier that way.
The second of my eight drabbles for Week 4, and the only one that's canon-compliant. The others are various degrees of silly, lol!
I love Janto: I kinda see Jack whipping off his Vortex Manipulator and hiding it before calling down to the desk to complain their bed unexpectedly sprung a leak on them and Ianto rolling his eyes as Jack demands they be moved to another room, lol!
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO
Jack glanced at the clock. He'd been checking the time every few seconds since he'd left Ianto finishing up with Suzie in the morgue. Ten minutes had never seemed more like an eternity.
As soon as he'd reached the main Hub, he'd ordered everyone home. The events of the day had been so unsettling that even Tosh didn't argue, gathering her things with one hand while turning off her computers with the other as if she couldn't wait to escape.
Owen followed Gwen out, muttering that he needed a drink.
Jack checked the clock again. Still three minutes to go…
The End
