Title: Dark, Damp And Desolate

Pairings/Characters: Jack/Ianto, Captain Jack Harkness, Ianto Jones, Mentions of Gwen Cooper-Williams (She may come in in the beginning briefly and at the end)

Warnings: Fluff, Angst

Summary: Jack and Ianto find themselves trapped in a space that is, just as the title says, damp, dark and desolate. Inspired by 'Blood' from the 100 one word prompts.

Author Notes: I've made a decision. This is my last one! I have a million stories in the making and plot bunnies continue to attack! My main problem is that there are certain things I feel in the mood to write and no stories there with that in it. So I am stopping making any new ones until I finish the ones I've already started posting. I'm sure that'll make people happy but it'll require some discipline on my part xD Please R&R

Disclaimer: I would write that if I owned Torchwood Ianto would be alive but I choose to deny his death...damn. I don't own them.

Chapter One – Long Day At Work

"How long ago did Gwen leave?" Ianto murmured into the crook of Jack's neck, smiling as the captain's scent swam through his nostrils. Playing with his senses.

"Almost an hour, why?" Jack's hands held onto Ianto by the waist, holding him close.

They stood in the middle of the hub, simply holding onto each other. It had been a long day. The rift had been playing up for a while but finally seemed to settle down. Ianto had been knocked around and was certain that he'd have some bruises and Jack had almost died once amongst his own bruises which were quick to heal.

When the rift had finally given them a moment of peace, they took the opportunity, letting Gwen go home. The first thing they did when the cog door had rolled shut was look after each other's both physical and emotional injuries.

At that moment Ianto's hands were in Jack's coat, pressed against his back while Jack's were playing mindlessly with the Welshman's belt but not going any further. Jack rested his head on Ianto's, smiling unconsciously.

"Because she usually comes back in after about this amount of time." Ianto sighed.

"Do you want to move then?"

"No." Ianto said simply, "I wouldn't dream of it."

Jack smirked, holding onto Ianto's hips and pulling him closer. At that moment the cog door rolled opened and Gwen rushed through.

"Oh…I'm sorry guys, forgot my…"

"Phone?" Ianto asked.

"…Yeah, how'd you know?"

"You usually do."

Gwen walked passed them, feeling like she was intruding but it can't have mattered to the others too much. They didn't move away, if anything, they moved closer and Gwen smiled. It was always good to know that they had each other, that they weren't alone on days like that one.

She moved quickly to her desk, picking up her phone, "Got it. I won't keep you."

"Goodnight Gwen." Jack said just loud enough for her to hear.

"'Night boys."

The sound of the cog door rolling shut again rang through the room.

"Told you." Ianto smiled smugly.

"Cheeky." Jack chuckled, "Are you tired?"

"A little bit." Ianto admitted, kissing Jack's neck gently.

"Come on, let's get you home."

Ianto nodded, "Okay."

Jack parked the car, turning to the sleeping figure next to him. He took off his seat belt and leaned closer to the younger man. His hands found their way into Ianto's hair, running it through the soft locks.

"Ianto?" He murmured quietly.

The Welshman didn't move and Jack let a faint smile grace his face.

"Ianto?" His voice was sterner and he wished he didn't have to wake the other man.

"Hmm?" Ianto sighed.

"Just wake up until I get you inside."

Ianto groaned, sitting up and stretching, hissing at the pain in his shoulder. Jack's hand impulsively held Ianto's arm.

"Are you okay?"

"It's just a twinge. I'll be fine as soon as I get to bed." Ianto assured him, taking off his seat belt.

"Alright fine but be careful."

Jack pulled Ianto into the bedroom. Ianto pulled Jack to him and kissed him softly, feeling the effects of his exhaustion. Jack smirked, kissing back before pushing Ianto onto the bed, curling up next to him.

They were too tired to get changed, simply sleeping in each other's arms.

P.S: Sorry this chapter's so short, it'll make sense soon but I wanted mindless fluff to start us off.
