Summary: Tosh's wedding outfit has its in intended effect on Owen. A double drabble.
It was hard not to smirk, watching Owen ogle after Tosh as she made her way delicately across the hub in those stiletto heels. Ianto worried that she might get one caught in the metal gangway and hurt herself. Not to mention ruining those lovely heels. Jimmy Choos, he guessed..
Somehow she made it all the way to her desk, picked up her purse, and with a brief smile back in their direction, said “see you all at the wedding.”
Ianto turned around to look at Owen. A statue would have moved more. Seeing Tosh dressed up like that had made him freeze on the spot. About bloody time, Ianto thought, wondering when or if Owen was ever going to notice that Tosh was stunning, not just when she put on her best outfit. Owen could be so shallow sometimes.
‘You can close your mouth now,’ Ianto said.
Owen blinked, then looked at him. ‘Eh?’
‘I think your tongue was about to fall out. I’m no medic, but even a dead man probably shouldn’t lose his tongue.’
‘What?’ Owen still looked confused. Poor lamb.
‘I’m off to report back to Jack,’ he said. ‘You just carry on with that research.’
