Challenge 345 - Best intentions

Title: Best intentions
Author: m_findlow
Characters: Ianto
Rating: G
Challenge: 345 - Cake
Notes: Ianto decides not to spoil Jack's efforts

When  Jack returned, Ianto entered his office.

'Anything happen while I was out?'

'All quiet,  just the one message.'  Ianto handed him a blank cheque.  

'A guy called Ieuan from Caerphilly following up payment for something you ordered.  He also said he needed to set up an appointment with you on the nineteenth.'

Jack started to panic.

'Did he say why?'

'No, I just assumed you knew. I can call back for details if you need?'

'No, that's fine. I'll speak to him.'

'Okay.'

As Ianto left Jack breathed a sigh of relief that he hadn't ruined Ianto's birthday surprise.

Oh dear, I can see more than one surprise happening there.

Little does Jack know that Ianto knows all, the cat's out of the bag (or the Jack's out of the cake). Jack's not very good at planning surprises.

He tried. I suspect that the invoice got mixed in with all the other paperwork that Ianto liberated from Jack's desk so he forgot to pay it and destroy the evidence.

The downside of having a super-efficient Ianto handling the paperwork I guess.

Is Ianto just being tactful and letting Jack think he will still be surprised..... or is Ianto planning a surprise of his own?
