torchwood100Summary: Norton is not Ianto's favourite person. A double drabble.
'My word, that was a close one!' Norton said as he paused to study the bullet hole made in the concrete from Jack's latest attempt.
Ianto didn't pause to reflect on how close it had come to hitting him. In the head no less. He was too busy being infuriated at Norton. And running for his life. A pity the bullets couldn't hurt Norton.
'He always was a terrible shot,' Norton added, frowning disparagingly. 'I did tell him to aim a little bit more to the left.'
'I was going left!' Ianto fumed.
Norton shrugged. 'Oopsy. We all make mistakes.'
Ianto stopped and rounded on him. 'Don't you ever quit trying to get me killed? What did I ever do to you?'
'Apart from drag me here all the way from 1953 and interrupting a very important game of Patience? Why, no. I can't think of a single reason. Although, watching Jack go on a murderous rampage that isn't aimed at me is refreshingly entertaining. And here I was thinking the afternoon would be rather dull.'
'Maybe I should just give up and let him kill me,' Ianto suggested.
'Now why would you do that?'
'Because it would annoy you.'
