Jack POV

I'm so glad that the rift decided to be quiet. Maybe I can send Gwen home early and get some time alone with Ianto. As if on cue, Gwen walks in. 'Jack, do you mind if I head home? I know it's a bit early but there is no activity detected. I just wanted to spend some time with Rhys after all this. I know he will have so many questions.'

'Sure. Just make sure you keep your phone on. I won't ring you unless it's something a bit more serious than a weevil.' I say with a smile.

'Thanks Jack. Have fun.' She says leaving my office.

'Trust me I will.' I say with my signature wink.

'Jack, Gwen, do you want coffee?' Ianto says as he enters the room. His signature red shirt and black tie beam out at me like a beacon of hope and light. I much prefer his red shirt to his pink one he was wearing yesterday.

'Gwen has just left to go home and spend some quality time with Rhys because there is no rift activity detected until tomorrow night, but I would kill for a cup.' I say grinning for ear to ear like the Cheshire cat.

'I sure. But... we could make use of this quiet time together.' Ianto says winking and moving away from the door.

Just as I get up from my chair and walk towards him as he loosens his tie. A familiar noise fills my ears. And all of the alarms in the Hub start going off. Ianto races out of the office in a panic. I stay at my desk and put up to CCTV footage. And sure, enough I see what I thought would be standing there. Ianto starts getting guns out from the weapons room and is about to dial Gwen when I interrupt him. 'Ianto don't bother, I know who it is. It's fine. Don't call Gwen and we don't need the guns he doesn't even carry on himself.'

'He? Jack what's going on? Is it John again?' Ianto says, panicking, dropping the guns and running to the monitor to try and explain to me. 'It says that something is draining the rift.'

'Yes, I know just come outside to the parking garage and you will see what I mean. It's not John so stop panicking it's a good thing... I think.' I grab his hand and begin walking out of the hub towards the outside world.  'You haven't got used to recognising the noise yet. That's all there is nothing to be worried about trust me.' I say in the most reassuring tone I can put on because truthfully, I don't know if everything will be okay.

As we surface out to the real world. I can see him standing in the parking garage leaning against it as he always does. It's like he actually loves it, almost as much as I love Ianto.

'Long time no see.' I say in my usual sarcastic manor. Bearing in mind it has been 2 days since I last saw him.

'I wanted to see you again and I needed to charge her.' He said, shrugging. 'I didn't realise it had only been two days though. I was going more for two weeks or a month. I was hoping to let you settle back into real life first but oh well. I'm here now'

'Is that what you are called the TARDIS now.' I say smirking knowing just how much he loves that machine.

While this little exchange is happening, I can see Ianto trying to put together the puzzle pieces in his brain. As we walk closer to him Ianto begins to finally relax as he realises who it is.

'So that's...' Ianto says still with a slightly brushed look on his face.

'The Doctor.' The doctor and I say in unison.

'Nice to finally meet you Mr. Ianto Jones.' The Doctor says stretching out a hand to Ianto.

'How... do you know... my name you never asked before.' Ianto says stammering with nervousness but he accepts The Doctor's hand anyway.
