Title: Opposites attract
Author: m_findlow
Characters: Gwen, Jack, Ianto
Rating: PG
Challenge: 562 - Common at tw100
Notes: Gwen is often amazed at the relationship between her two co-workers. A double drabble.
Gwen began to giggle as she watched Ianto trying to swat Jack away. Jack was trying to wipe his hands on the napkin tucked into Ianto's shirt collar, but turned his head at the sound of Gwen's amusement.
'What's so funny?' he muffled through half a mouthful of pizza he was still chewing, giving up on swiping the napkin. Ianto proceeded to tuck it neatly back into place.
Gwen shook her head. 'It's just you two, she replied. No matter how much time we spend together I don't get it. Personality wise, you have almost nothing in common, but... I don't know, it just works. It must be that old "opposites attract" thing.'
Jack sucked the pizza sauce from his fingers, before reaching for another slice. 'Oh, I wouldn't say that, Gwen. You don't know just how dirty-minded Ianto can be. Why, there are times when he and I are thinking exactly the same thing, like we're in synch.'
'There's a difference between thinking the same thing and anticipating you,' Ianto argued.
'Oh, is that what we're calling it these days?' Jack said, grinning. 'If you're not enjoying it we can always stop.'
'No need to be hasty,' Ianto replied.
