Day 226 l Christmas Party Mingle
[Ianto has, predictably, gone a bit overboard for the Christmas party he and Jack are throwing. The entire apartment has been decorated; there's a tree with gold and silver ornaments and twinkling lights, garlands draped over doorways, candles in every window and festive nicknacks scattered about. It looks like something out of a magazine, and may make visitors a little afraid to actually touch anything. There's also a lot of mistletoe around (one of the side effects of living with Captain Jack Harkness) so it's probably a good idea to keep one eye on the ceiling at all times.

Of course he's made plenty of coffee and some appetizers, so he hopes people really do respond to the invitation Jack sent out, otherwise there are going to be a hell of a lot of leftovers.]

Ianto lets the toy fall abandoned to the floor to be cleaned up later, and gathers Jack up into his arms as he feels that shiver run though him. It's quiet in the other room now; their guests must have shown themselves out, and even if there are still one or two left he has no interest in going to check on them. All he wants right now to be as close to Jack as possible.

"Can you make it to the bed?" He asks quietly, nuzzling against the sweaty spikes of his hair. "I want to hold you for a bit."

Jack clings and nods. "Think so," he says hoarsely, grateful as always for Ianto tacitly knowing exactly what he needs. He would very much like to be held for a bit.

He's forgetten all about the party and their guests. Nothing exists for him right now beyond the two of them, and the bed he'd very much like to get to. Luckily, it's not a big room and the bed is only a few feet away. He leans against Ianto, breathing slowly, gathering strength, and then nods. "Okay, let's go."

Ianto helps jack up carefully, moving slowly for his sake and helping to support him as he steers them towards the nearby bed. Luckily it's not far and he is even able to work a hand free and pull back the covers for him. He realizes belatedly that he is still fully dressed so he reluctantly releases his grip on Jack and quickly begins to tug them off with no regard for wrinkles or stains.

Jack's had a fair bit of practice over the years at managing to stagger distances much greater than this in far worse physical condition. And he has Ianto to lean on, which makes it a lot easier. He collapses into the helpfully opened up bed, and then whines when Ianto doesn't follow him. Even if it's for as altruistic a reason as taking off his clothes so they can have skin to skin contact, he misses the contact now and it's an effort to be patient. The fact that Ianto's being so hasty that he's just flinging his clothes down does help a bit, but he's still shivering again before Ianto's finished. He clamps his teeth together to stop them chattering and refuses to whinge when he knows Ianto can't physically go any faster.

The winter weather means Jack isn't the only one left shivering by the time Ianto is done. Finishing with the last of the buttons he drops his shirt hastily to the floor before climbing under the covers with Jack and pulling him close. The heat of his skin feels fantastic and he strikes a hand appreciatively down the length of his side. He can't resist another one of those long, slow kisses, the kind that make the rest of the world disappear until there is nothing beyond Jack, the smell and feel and taste of him all he cares about.

Jack sucks in a long breath as Ianto finally climbs into bed with him, and then lets it out again as he cuddles up, pressing close as he possibly can and melting into the kiss. The shivers gradually die down and the intensity of his grip around Ianto slowly loosens, until the only things left are the kiss and their bodies pressed against each other. Eventually even the kiss has to end, and he snuggles in, ducking his head down to rest it on Ianto's shoulder in a reversal of their normal position.

"Wow." Happy shudder this time, and a brief tightening of his arms before they relax again.

Ianto likes how easily Jack fits against his side. It's not how they normally sleep, but he finds it comfortable, natural even. He can't believe it's taken them this long to try so many of these things. It's the first time since their arrival that he feels truly grateful to this place for the change its helped being about in their dynamic. He never would have gotten up the nerve to alter their routine at home.

"Wow," He echoes, not quite sure how else to describe the intensity of what just happened.

	Jack laughs softly, nuzzled into the crook of his neck. "You are amazing." He's not quite up to speech yet, not really, even though he's got lots he wants to say. But he can manage that much. He moves his head a little so that his hair rubs against Ianto's chin and strokes his fingers lightly over Ianto's chest, in lieu of more words. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"It's alright if I do things like that?" Ianto confirms. Things like dominate and order about. Based on Jack's reactions tonight he's pretty damn sure it's a dynamic they both want to add to their relationship but he's always been one to check. The brush of fingers across his chest feels wonderful, and he gives Jack's shoulder an appreciative squeeze. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jack's brain's pretty scrambled so it takes him a moment to follow just what Ianto's asking about, but when he does he smiles against Ianto's collarbone. "Like everything you just did, and are doing now?" he whispers, hand sliding across Ianto's chest so he can squeeze him lightly. He lets out a not-quite-in-control little laugh. "Oh fuck, yes please!" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"I'm glad we're on a vacation from work," Ianto remarks, a bit of his usual dry humor creeping into his tone. "I don't think I'd feel comfortable ordering my boss around." Even here he still thinks of Jack as his boss, at least when it comes to taking the lead in dangerous situations, but its different, and it helps to make things less complicated.

He finds Jack's forehead for another quick kiss. He likes the calm they're sharing now, so different from the intensity of what they've just done. It's a nice contrast that somehow makes this all the more sweet.

	"Sweetheart, you've been ordering your boss around for years," Jack murmurs fondly, humming softly at the kiss. "Just not so overtly." He snuggles in a bit further, always a whore for contact after something like this. "So you enjoyed it then?" It's fairly obvious that Ianto did, but he's still a bit under, and thus eager for affirmation and praise. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ianto can't really argue with that, and laughs softly. Alright, so he has been ordering Jack around at work for a long time. But how else is paperwork ever actually going to get done? "Yes, I enjoyed that." He admits, always happy to pull Jack closer. "I liked knowing you trusted me that much." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Of course, you ordering me about is much more fun here, where there's no actual work to do!" Jack chuckles softly, still a little high.

And then he goes quiet, more serious. "I liked finding out I trust you that much. I never thought... How far we've come together." He watches his fingers trail up and down Ianto's side. "I can't wait to explore that further."

Ianto nods in silent agreement. For something that had started out as nothing more than a part-time office shag to distract them both from their shit lives their relationship had certainly come a long way. He never would have imagined this was how it would have turned out.

"I'm glad," He says simply, resting his cheek against the top of Jack's head and taking a deep breath of that natural aftershave smell. "Do you remember how hard I had to work just to get you to hire me?"

Jack giggles a bit. "You caught me a pteradactyl. No-one's ever done that for me before! How could I not hire you after that?"

His hand strokes over Ianto's chest, a little more co-ordinated now as he starts to take possession of his body again. He shifts a bit more over Ianto, wincing as the movement twinges muscles that had just settled. "Fuck, I am going to be so sore. That toy turned out to be way bigger than it looked in the shop!"

	"And then you jumped on me, as I recall." Ianto points out with a roll of his eyes and a smile. He gives Jack's shoulder a sympathetic squeeze at that comment. "I promise to pamper and fuss over you all day tomorrow if you'd like." He offers. "Although frankly I am not at all surprised you overestimated yourself with that thing."

"Didn't you jump on me first?" Jack retorts, grinning, and then shakes his head gently. "I'm just going to blame tonight on the Christmas booze and on you for being so fucking hot and dominant and getting me all carried away!"

A beat, and then, hopefully, "I don't suppose that pampering offer extends to getting me a bottle of water and some painkillers any time soon?"

There's sore, and there's sore, and he'd kind of like to be able to sleep tonight.

"I like that hot and dominate bit. Use that as an excuse any time you'd like." Ianto replies with a chuckle. The flattery works though and he reluctantly climbs out of bed. "Stay here, I'll go get you some."

After the warmth of the blankets and Jack's arms the cold air on his bare skin leaves him shivering. He pauses at the door to listen for any party guests, but hears nothing so he turns the handle and hurries to the kitchen. Tea seems like just the thing for snugging after amazing sex on a chilly winter night and he leaves the water to heat up while rummaging around for a bottle of aspirin.

A few minutes later he is back, balancing the pills, a glass of water and two mugs of tea on a tray, looking for all the world like his usual Torchwood butler self, aside from the lack of clothes.

"I intend to!" Jack calls after him, and then snuggles into the warm space Ianto's left behind as he watches his lover's departing ass appreciatively.

Ianto's gone longer than he expected, long enough for him to finish coming down and start shivering as he starts to crash a bit. Not because he was too far under, because he wasn't, but even without the D/s element that was a lot more intense, and a lot harder on his body, than he'd anticipated.

The sight of not just painkillers but tea as well definitely perks him up though. Well, that and the novel sight of naked butler!Ianto. "Mmm, that's a sight for sore eyes!" he grins, still a little shakey.

"I wasn't aware it was your eyes that were sore," Ianto quips back, balancing the tray on the nightstand as he climbs back into bed, grateful for the warm covers after the cold room. Outside the window he can see snowflakes still coming down, making it seem like they are the only two people in the world.

He passes Jack the water and painkillers, leaning back against the headboard comfortably and wrapping an arm around his shoulder to pull him close against his side.

"All right, then, a sight for a sore ass!" he chuckles, completely shameless as always, and shunts back into the cooler part of the bed to make room for Ianto. "Here, I kept your spot warm," he murmurs, settling in comfortably again, very much enjoying being the one cuddled for once, instead of the one doing the cuddling. He takes the pills and then sips slowly at the water, feeling himself slowly settle again.

"This is nice," he says softly, a little drowsy now that he feels safe and warm again. "This is really nice. Do you know, when I've been subbing for someone is probably the only time I really let anyone look after me?"

Well, except when he's badly injured, of course, but that's not the sort of thing he wants to talk about tonight.

Ianto is well aware of how independent and determined to take care of himself Jack can be. It's the reason he has to find other, smaller ways to do it, like how he always makes sure he has a fresh cup of coffee, or the way he helps him put on his coat. Its the reason he always tries to be there when Jack dies. He takes care of him when he can, and if this opens up a new way to do that he is nothing but grateful for it.

He hands Jack his chamomile tea then takes a sip if his own, the mug comfortably warm in his hand. "Well then it's an opportunity I plan on taking full advantage of. I like being this close to you."

Jack practically purrs. "Oh, Mr Jones, I do like it when you take advantage of me." It's a typical come-on, and yet so much more as well. He does like this, a lot. He can't remember the last time he felt so comfortable with someone, the last time he let anyone this close. He had D/s relationships back in Cardiff, yes, but they were mostly very strictly business only. He never let himself fall ffor any of them, and the same with all the other people he took to his bed.

But he's finally let himself fall for Ianto, and he's fallen hard. God help him if this place snatches Ianto away from him as it seems to have snatched so many others away.

To distract himself from such dreadful thoughts, he glances up from his mug with a smirk and murmurs, "So, did this evening give you any ideas on how you'd like to take advantage of me in the future?"

Because they've done very well with Jack occasionally prompting him with questions, but he wants to know else what Ianto's devious mind has in store for him!

Ianto chokes a bit on his tea at that first line, typical though it might be because its not the sort of thing he usually hears for Jack. Its the combination of the Mr. Jones bit and the taking advantage idea. He coughs a few times and clears his throat, regaining a bit of his usual composure.

"Well I have got that stopwatch now," He reminds him. He can always think of new stopwatch activities. More seriously he elaborates, "I want to make sure you know I don't want to do anything that physically hurts or injures you. I've watched you die too many times to be able find anything arousing in that sort of a situation. I think I'd just see a body." It's a dark turn for the conversation to take, and he knows it, but this is his only ground rule and he wants to set it before they go any further with this.
