A/N Okay, i give in, muses do what you will ...

Jack shook the snow from his coat as he entered the fake Tourist Office, it was freezing and he couldn't wait to get back into the warmth of the hub but as the cog door slid open he was hit by an icy blast to rival the outside. Hugging his arms around himself he moved through the hub calling out for Ianto, a response came from the vicinity of the small kitchenette.

Jack changed direction and headed quickly towards it, finding Ianto wrapped in a duvet with what looked like oil or grease marking his face while one hand cradled a mug of steaming hot coffee. It wasn't till that point that Jack realised he was also sporting a knitted bobble hat, which made him look incredibly cute.

“Somehow the heating has gone off and the air conditioning has come on full blast, I've been trying to fix it for over an hour now but my hands are so cold they won't function properly anymore.” Ianto glowered at Jack as if it was somehow his fault.

“I'll go and look.” Jack strode off towards the lower levels without waiting for an answer, missing the small mutter as he went behind him.

It was some time before Jack reappeared, his teeth chattering as he rubbed his hands together is vain trying to warm them up with a defeated look and dirty marks on his face. It was no good, they were going to have to get someone in to mend it and then Retcon them with a cuppa tea! He did however have to smile at the sight of Ianto, sitting snuggled up under the duvet shivering and muttering to himself.

“No luck, will have to get an engineer in.” Jack told him as he approached the sofa. “Any room for me under that duvet?”

“Nope!”

“Hey it's not my fault the heating broke ... we can make each other warmer.”

“Not in the mood Jack, I need hot coffee and a hot bath to defrost.”

“Okay, I'll put the hub on automatic, find an engineer and join you.”

Ianto rolled his eyes. “I meant alone Jack.” He retorted as he stood up clutching the duvet.

Jack grabbed the hand holding the duvet in place and pulled Ianto towards him, placing a small kiss on his lips and wrapping his arms around him, duvet an' all and told him it was fine, he didn't need any of those things to keep him warm. Ianto gave him a small questioning frown and he burst into song as he began to waltz Ianto around the hub.

I love the winter weather
Because the two of us can get together
There's nothing sweeter, finer
When it's nice and cold I can hold
My baby closer, to me
Collecting all the kisses that are due me
I love the winter weather
Because I've got my love to keep me warm
I love the winter weather
Because the two of us can get together
There's nothing sweeter, finer
When it's nice and cold I can hold
My baby closer, to me
Collecting little kisses that are due me
I love the winter weather
Because I've got my love to keep me warm

“Did you just call me baby?” Ianto asked with a smirk on his face.

“Yeah, but it's in the song.”

“Never call me baby, unless you wish to experience death again.”

“You threatening me?” Jack chuckled.

“Not a threat.” Ianto tried desperately not to smile. “Okay, you get the heating sorted out and I might let you share my bath.”

“Go, go.” Jack urged, releasing Ianto from his grip. “Now, where did I put the yellow pages.” He muttered to himself as he watched Ianto leave via the cog door.

The End.
