Summary: Everyone is glad to see the back of their latest visitor. A double drabble.
‘Is it just me,’ Owen began, raising his hand, ‘or is anyone else here glad to see that stupid git packed off to…’ He frowned. ‘Where exactly has he gone? ‘Owen asked, turning to Jack.
Jack gave a shrug of his shoulders, feeling the residual tingle of vortex energy as it dissipated with the time shift. ‘Who can say for certain,’ he said in vague reply.
Owen snorted. ‘Vote still stands.’ He looked around at the others, who all looked at one another, waiting to take their lead from Jack. His history with John Hart made them all wary of saying the wrong thing lest Jack had changed his mind.
‘Given a choice, I’d have him packed off to the farthest corner of time and space,’ Jack said, answering the question for them. ‘He’s my past. You’re my present,’ he said, before turning to make sure he met each of them eye to eye. ‘And my future, for as long as you’ll have me.’
Gwen and Tosh both smiled, and Ianto tried but failed and descended into more of a blush.Only Owen had the guts to roll his eyes. ‘S’pose we can put up with you for a bit.’
