Summary: Ianto is keen to know if it's all official now. A double drabble.
Ianto stared at Tosh across the table, holding his coffee just short of his lips as he studied her, waiting to see which of them would crack first in the staring contest they had going on.
‘What?’ Tosh said, relenting far quicker than Ianto expected. ‘Don’t give me that look.’
‘What look?’ he said, feigning innocence.
‘I know what you’re going to say,’ she said, reaching for her own coffee and taking a long sip.
Ianto put his coffee down. ‘I just want to know if it’s official now. Are we allowed to start talking about it?’
Tosh rolled her eyes. ‘As if you and Jack aren’t already.’
‘You don’t know what we talk about,’ he said, keeping his tone playful. So, is it?’
Tosh finally let the smile break through. ‘I suppose you could say that.’
‘Say what?’
Tosh chewed her lip, knowing she was being played. ‘Owen and I are dating. There, I said it.’
Ianto beamed at her. ‘How very interesting. And how is that going?’
Tosh narrowed her eyes at him over her mug. ‘I am not kissing and telling. Not even to you. Not yet, anyway.’
‘That’s okay,’ Ianto replied. ‘I’m an incredibly patient person.’
