torchwood100Summary: Ianto is made with Jack for a very good reason. A double drabble.
‘How many times do I have to tell you,’ Ianto began, not even waiting until he was anywhere near Jack to begin berating him.
‘I was busy!’ Jack retorted, not having the patience to be bothered arguing the point.
‘Do you have any idea how hard it is to get dried blood out of leather? It's animal skin which means that, like any kind of skin, it happily soaks up any moisture it can get.’
‘Yes, I know,’ Jack said, heaving the words out with his own brand of forced restraint. ‘You're like a broken record, Ianto. No bleeding in the SUV. I've heard it a hundred times.’
‘Yet you still choose to tie up my day detailing the car. As if I don't have enough to do.’
‘I don't choose to bleed to death all over the place,’ Jack said, growing annoyed by the lack of empathy. ‘All you're upset about is the leatherwork.’
Ianto leaned over, kissing him on the cheek. ‘Of course it upsets me that you're hurt. It just upsets me more having to think about it for the three hours it takes to clean it out of the car. That's why I continually repeat myself.’
