Not mine, I'm just having fun :)


-Ianto's house-

Knocking rapidly on her colleague's door, Tosh shouted Ianto's name about 14 times before getting sick of bashing her knuckles. As she counted to herself under her breath, she got into position to kick down the door, and on the count of three, struck the door down with a crash. Smoke filled out of Ianto's flat, along with a foul stench of stale air. Coughing, Tosh moved into the flat slowly.

"Ianto"?!?! She called repetitively. "Ianto, are you here"?

Her foot connected with the couch. She had been her often enough to know that there was a light switch just above the head of the lounge. Feeling her way up, she flicked the switch and stifled a scream at what she saw.

Ianto's place was an absolute mess. 'So much for the tidiest of the lot of us' she thought dryly. There were bottles of alcohol she couldn't even pronounce, strewn around the floor and empty packets of two minute noodles and crackers and other assortments of un—healthy food. Looking at her feet, she saw an empty cigarette packet infront of her left shoe. 'Ianto doesn't smoke though. What the heck'? Moving further in, she soon saw the body of her friend slumped across the floor by the dining table.

"Ianto"? She asked tentatively in the direction of the silhouette. Seeing him motionless was scaring her, so she quickened her pace towards the Welshman.

As she got closer, she hesitated. 'What if he is sleeping and gets mad at me for being here. What if he doesn't want to see me? What if he is…' she forced herself to shut that thought out of her mind. Putting more length into her strides, she soon walked through the other room, pausing to turn around and flick the switch with a slim finger. Turning back to her friend sprawled on the floor; she knew she was too late.

Her hand flew to her ear, activating her comm.-unit.

"Owen? Owen are you there"? Her voice shook in time with her shoulders, now trying desperately to control her breathing with out crying.

"Yeah, what did you find"? The medics' worried tone sounded through the earpiece.

She steadied herself and took a few deep breaths, "ah, could you come over to Ianto's flat. With a medical kit. Or two". She paused. "Please. Now".

Without waiting for the reply, she shut off her unit. And fell heavily against the wall, her back hitting with a soft thump. The small flat was soon filled with a soft sobbing. Resting her head on her knees, Tosh curled up as tight as she could, not wanting to see her friends' broken body.

"Tosh"? A soft voice whispered, causing the small woman to jump violently and hit her head on the wall, resulting in a Japanese expletive slipping from her lips.

"Tosh". The disembodied voice asked again.

Realising it was coming from Ianto, Tosh lurched forward onto her hands and knees and quickly crawled over to the Welshman.
