Author: m_findlow
Characters: Jack, Ianto
Rating: PG
Challenge: 362 - Love
Notes: Words don't always mean what you want them to mean
'I love you.'
'Don't.'
Jack couldn’t bring himself to say it back, because he knew it wouldn’t mean what it was meant to. It should have meant I love you with all my heart. Instead it would just mean goodbye, and he couldn’t.
He'd never said it properly before, and he didn't want this moment to be the memory he held of when he'd first said it. It didn't matter that his head was screaming it over and over and over again.
If this was the end, he wouldn't waste it with words. He loved Ianto too much for that.

Reading this made me realise that, even after six whole years, I'm still furious with Jack for this one word!
