Double Drabble - Provider (TW)

[peg22]

 It was bound to happen. Unavoidable, really.

My very first Torchwood fic. Just a double drabble. Since I only dabble.
Could be spoiler-ish. Not really. Just observations by my favorite Tea Boy.

It's Jack/Ianto
Separately so delicious. Together they make fangirls head explode. In a good way.

You’re the one who makes the tea. Which is why you hand him a beer as he brushes by you to lick his wounds in his office. You’re the one who makes the tea because you know when he needs tea. And when he needs a quick snog before the others come crashing through the morning stillness of the Hub. Or when there’s a practical use for a stopwatch. Or a straight man. Certainly an anomaly since everyone knows the one thing Captain Jack Harkness has hardly any use for is a straight man.

 

You’re the one who makes the coffee. Which is why you pull out the bottle of single malt hidden inside the biscuit tin and place it on his desk. You’re also the one who first notices that even though he came back, he’s not all there. Or here. But you know he’s made his decision and you know he’ll never waver from it, even in the darkness of a night that stretches endlessly in front of him. And with his breath ragged against your neck, his hand fisted in your hair, his chest shoving you hard against the wall, you realize you’re also what he wants.

thanks girly! and I surprised myself cuz for months Ive said, "Torchwood is so slashy, how can anyone write fic."

and then I watched Meat and it just happened. And it wasn't even the slashiest!

"I wonder if they'll let Jack keep his "homoerotic" line when the ep airs on BBC America."

good question - have they been hacking anything else??

I can't remember . . .

BBC Am. have momentary fades, like discreet hiccups, on "fuck",
"cock" and "Jap". Better that than bleeping, and I'll tolerate it so long as they leave in all the lip locks :D
