Janto and kittens

Ianto was manning the tourist office again. When wasn't he? None of the others could ever sit still long enough to reply to an email, let alone sit in an office hoping someone will come in, in need off brochures. The Welshman stared blankly at the door waiting for it to open when he saw movement of the other side of the glass. He made his way to the door and cautiously cracked it open, finding a cardboard box on the other side. Inside the box was a little black kitten with emerald eyes laying wrapped in a blanket. Ianto reached for the note that was tucked up beside the kitten. 'Please find a home for this kitten, he is now old enough to eat store bought food' was all the note read. Ianto bought the kitten in from the cold and stared at it for a while as if contemplating what to do with it.

Inside the box the kitten snuffled sleepily and ianto smiled. The team may not think him the type, but he had a soft spot for animals specifically kittens and puppies. He soon came to the conclusion that he would keep the kitten. He never knew how long he'd be at the hub so he decided it best to take to kitten to the hub and home with him wherever he may be for that week.

He snuck the box across the hub and past Owen tosh and Gwen without any trouble, they probably thought he was cleaning out the archives. Only when he was going past jacks office did the kitten decide to meow. "Shhhh" ianto hissed at it as jack made his way to ianto "did you just tell a box to shush ianto?". Ianto froze "Uhm y-yes?" How had he managed to hide Lisa in the hub and not this tiny kitten. It was then that the kitten decided that he wanted to see what all the commotion was about. He shuffled in the box and sprung against the side. Two paws and ears appeared over the top of the box before curious glittering green, feline eyes peered at jack with curiosity. "You've got a .... cat" jack observed slowly.
"Yes..."
"Why...."
after jack asked that question ianto launched into an explanation "there was also a note asking to find him a home. Oh jack look at his little face you can't leave the poor guy to starve I was going to take him home and bring him to work with me but now you've seen him maybe .... jack please can he stay here. Look how cute he is look into those little eyes we can't send him to come random home ... look into his eyes Jack! He's so cute and I think I'm gonna name him jet". "Ianto I don't think torchwood is a good place for a kitten." Jack stayed reasonable only to have ianto pout at him "please jack!" He practically begged. Jack sighed, feeling defeated "oh alright... how could I say no to that adorable face". Ianto beamed "he's cute isn't he" jack shrugged "I mean yeah but I wasn't talking about the cat" he smirked, watching ianto blush. They decided to settle jet in the captains bunker,reasoning that they would get cat food on their lunch break. Jack went to find a clean blanket for their new team mate.

The immortal returned to find ianto settled on the bed with the very confused looking kitten in his arms. He watched smiling as the Welshman whispered to the cat, unaware of jacks presence. "You're gonna be just fine here and later we're going to go and get you some food. Jack might try and teach you how to catch a pterodactyl. don't do it, it's a trap before you know it you'll be hired by him and sorting through the paperwork with your tiny paws". Jack cleared his throat and ianto almost jumped out of his skin looking guilty when he realised jack might have heard rather a lot of his 'conversation' with jet.

Later that day, with jet safely stored away in jacks bunker, they made their way to the nearest Tesco. They were soon lost in the crowds of people as they attempted to locate the cat food. When they did finally find it they were overwhelmed with the choices. Well.... ianto was overwhelmed with the choices, Jack was obsessed with the cat toys deciding that he absolutely NEEDED to buy them all for jet. Ianto finally managed to drag his boyfriend and the pile of cat toys to the self checkout.

Soon they were finally back in the suv and in their way back to the hub. Jack fiddled with the radio like a five year old sitting in the front seat for the first time. As they pulled into the usual parking spot for the suv, jack noticed ianto stifle a small yawn. He smiled for a second, a sleepy ianto was an adorable ianto but it was a harsh reminder to jack that his Welshman worked just a little too hard.

They made their way through the hub without incident and finally were greeted into jacks bunk by the small black fluffy feline. "I'll get his food ready" jack informed Ianto who, by the looks of things, was just figuring out how tired he really was as he sunk down onto jacks mattress. Jack soon returned with the cats food and smiled at the sight that greeted him. Ianto was curled up, fast asleep, rather like a kitten himself on jacks bed as the real kitten played with a feather toy next to him. He called the kitten onto the floor for the food and made his way to the bed to pull a blanket over ianto. Ianto woke briefly and snuffled sleepily reaching out a hand to jack, "stay?" He requested and this time jack really couldn't say no to that face.
