Challenge: 473 - Double at tw100
Notes: How is Ianto supposed to be in two places at once? A double drabble.

'Are you ready to go?' Tosh asked, slinging her handbag over her shoulder.

'Yep,' Ianto said, flipping off his computer. 'The high street won't know what hit it,' he added. Christmas shopping with Tosh was an annual event and something he looked forward to.

As he grabbed his phone to slip it into his pocket, he spotted the notification on the screen.

'Uh, my calendar is telling me I'm double booked, Tosh. I'm so sorry. I don't know how that happened.'

'That's okay,' she said, trying not to sound disappointed. 'You've got a lot on. It's a wonder you're not double booked and triple booked most days.'

'But I just don't understand it. This shouldn't happen,' he said, perplexed.

'I can go shopping without you. It just won't be as much fun.'

'Wait,' he said, checking the details. What was this mysterious other appointment? 'Nope. Not double booked, after all,' he said.

'Really?'

'Yep. Let's go,' he said, grabbing his coat.

'So, what was the other appointment?'

'Oh, just something Jack slipped in there without telling me. Nothing that can't be rescheduled.'

He really had to tell Jack to stop putting things like "sex in the boardroom" in his calendar.

I'm sure Tosh wouldn't mind rescheduling the shopping to be invited to Ianto's other appointment - I know Jack won't mind :)

*snort* Jack can't help himself, he wants more of Ianto's time than he's getting and he'll try anything to get it!
