A/N: I was up at the crack of dawn today, i have so much to do ... so this got written early so i knew it wouldn't get left by the wayside! Sorry it's so short, but there should be some longer ones a coming :)
Having purchased the champagne for their friends, and a couple of bottles of Christmas beer for Rhys they hurried from the shopping centre back into the car park and loaded their shopping into the boot of the SUV, grateful that the temperature appeared to have warmed up a little and the snow was beginning to melt.
Half way to the hub Jack's mobile rang in his pocket, leaning across Ianto pulled it from the Captains pocket and answered the call.
“Hi Gwen, Jack's driving,” Ianto said. “what's up?”
“Someone has lodged a sighting of what they are calling a Yeti out on the outskirts of the City,” she told him. “I'm off out there to investigate now, Rhys is coming along for the ride and if it turns out to be anything other than someone seeing what is really just a snowman then I'll call for help.”
“Are you sure you don't want us to come along anyway, as back up?” Ianto asked her.
“Nope, we'll be fine, I'm sure,” she replied, giggling as she continued. “by the way, I left a small present for the pair of you in Jack's office … not that you really need any encouragement.”
“Really?” Ianto asked, wondering what on earth she could have left them.
“Yes. I'll speak to you later and fill you both in,” Gwen replied, now chuckling softly. “bye.”
“Okay, I'll pass the information on to Jack,” Ianto told her. “bye.”
With that he cut the call and told Jack the content.
“I wonder what she's left for us?” Jack mused out loud.
“We'll find out soon enough,” Ianto grinned as Jack pulled into the underground car park.
When they reached the Captains office they both glanced about but neither of them could see anything different until Ianto spotted the bright yellow post-it note positioned in the middle of Jack's desk which read simply 'Look up'.
When they did they both grinned at the sight of the large bunch of mistletoe hanging down from the ceiling, heavy with berries.
“Isn't each of the berries meant to represent a kiss?” Jack asked the younger man.
“I do believe so,” Ianto answered, nodding his head.
“Then I guess we should take advantage,” Jack replied, wrapping his arms around his lover.
“Advantage of the amount of berries, or advantage of me?” Ianto asked, giving him a somewhat coy smile.
“A little of both I think,” Jack said softly and pressed his lips to Ianto's, kissing him tenderly.
“I like this tradition,” Ianto smiled when their lips parted, pressing his body closer to the Captains.
“On of the best ever invented,” Jack agreed, taking full advantage of his lovers offered lips once more.
This time the kiss deepened, Ianto's arms sliding upwards to wrap around his lovers neck and burying his fingers in the hair at the nape, pulling him closer as they lost themselves in the moment.
Their tongues tangled, fought for domination as they battled first in one mouth and then the other with lips and teeth clashing under the intensity of the kiss until they had to part gasping for air and panting hard they found themselves resting their foreheads together.
“We must remember to thank Gwen for her gift,” Jack murmured.
“I think we probably already have,” Ianto chuckled softly, glancing towards the CCTV camera and it's little red light.
“True,” Jack laughed. “now, where were we?”
“Just about here,” Ianto answered, pressing his swollen lips to the Captains and taking full control of the following kiss.

Date: 2010-12-12 03:19 pm (UTC)Would have commented before but can't remember how to use an open account. I had one but now when I try to log in with it I get a message saying there is no such account name. Don't know it this message will go through but thought I'd give it a try.
Thanks for a great story; can't wait for more.
