Summary: Jack learns what their song is. A double drabble.
‘So, is this our song now?’ Jack asked teasingly, pulling Ianto a little bit closer as they swayed. Gwen's wedding was throwing up all kinds of surprises, not least Ianto cutting in on them and wanting a dance.
‘I didn't choose the music, I'm just playing it,’ came the reply close to Jack's ear.
‘Of course,’ Jack said, knowing what a bold-faced lie that was. ‘But I like it,’ he added, drinking in the words, knowing it was Ianto's secret little message to him.
‘Mervyn has a decent playlist. I had my concerns about any friend of Rhys' being left in charge of the music on the big day.’
‘You did him proud.’
‘We let him get torn apart and eaten by a shapeshifter. Not sure that counts as our best work.’
Jack pulled back slightly so he could look Ianto in the eye. ‘The shapeshifter is dead, we gave Gwen her special day and I got to dance with you. In my books, that counts as a win.’
‘Well, just enjoy it then. Doubtless it won't happen again.’
Jack pulled him back close, determined to enjoy every remaining second. Not all of it had to be a one off.
