A/N As i was asked so nicely here's the next chapter!

'You have to Ianto, your actions won't have just changed our lives, it will have had implications for those around you too.'

'I understand the concept of the butterfly effect, I'm not stupid. I'm just not buying this science fiction story you are spinning me.'

Jack thumped the table in frustration. 'It's not a story, it's a fact.'

'Jack, you need to keep calm, getting upset won't help.' The Doctor told him gently.

'Look, there's something I haven't told you, you and me, the real you and me are a couple, partners, we have a relationship. I need you back, I miss you ... I ... love you.' Jack was getting desperate.

'Okay, that's it. I'm leaving. I never want to see the two of you again.'

Ianto stood up from his seat, his coat still in his hand and stormed off out the pub before Jack or the Doctor could react.

'Fuck!' Jack spat. 'I've lost him for good.'

'Come on, lets see if we can catch him, maybe if we can convince him to see the TARDIS it might help, that Ianto Jones you love has to be inside him somewhere?' The Doctor was hauling Jack to his feet as he spoke.

Seconds later they were out the pub and scanning about, trying to see which way Ianto had gone. There was sign of him that they could see.

'Shit.' Jack kicked a nearby dustbin.

'Jack, come on, lets go back to the TARDIS, we'll think of something.'

'Yeah, I don't want to go to the hub, I need to stay out of Heathers way.'

The Doctor laughed. 'Not like you to turn down someones affection.'

'Doctor.' Jack growled.

'A nice cup of tea, that's what we need.'

Jack screwed his face up at the idea making the Doctor laugh again.

'Not funny! Don't you have any coffee?'

'You'll just have to be nice to the TARDIS.'

They headed back to the SUV and back to the TARDIS, what they didn't realise was that Ianto Jones was in his car watching, he started his car and followed the SUV, well, at least the part about this Jack working for TORCHWOOD seemed to be true. As for the rest, as mad as it sounded, he was intrigued.

*snorts* I'd be intrigued too if a gorgeous guy told me that we were in a relationship and he loved me, but I'd forgotten him because I'd changed time. LOL

So, Earth to Jack. The most inappropriate time to tell someone you love them after you've been with them for a couple of years would be when the have no idea who you are and have told you they are straight..

Sigh.

But our Ianto is in there - crafty Welshman that he is.

He's getting desperate ... not thinking straight!

Oh he sure is!

Thanks :D

LOL! I am loving this. I can't help but only feel a little bit sorry for Jack (but only a bit, because I know this will have a happy ending .... it better!!) but not too much because Ianto seems to sniffing out those 21st century pheromones. He won't be able to resist. He WON'T! (Do I sound desparate???)

Yep, he's a wondering to himself and who could resist them?

Thanks :D
