Major Davis and UNIT
Ianto was heading toward Jack's office later that morning with some paper work for the general to sign when he noticed the door was pulled mostly shut. He was about to raise his hand to knock when he heard voices coming from within and paused. Figuring Jack must be in a meeting he turned to leave intending to come back later.
"Come on, Daniel, you have to tell me something." Jack's slightly annoyed voice stopped him in his tracks.
"No, Jack I don't, what we spoke about last night was done in confidence and I won't break that." He heard Daniel reply. Were they talking about him?
"Come on, Daniel," Jack griped once more.
"No, Jack!"
He heard Jack sigh in exasperation before saying. "Fine, just tell me this, is he okay?"
"Yes I think he is," Daniel replied.
"And you two are friends now?" Jack asked.
"What's with the sudden interest in my friendships, Jack?" Daniel asked suspiciously.
"It's not like that, Daniel, you know I don't care who you're friends with," Jack chastised.
"Then what's with needing to know so much all of a sudden?" Daniel asked.
"It's…" Jack broke off and sighed. "It's not you; it's the kid all right. I…" he trailed off once more and Ianto listened intently until he spoke again. "You know I was not wildly fond of the thought of having an assistant but I…well I like the kid, okay. He's a great assistant, he doesn't bug me, and he does his job well and efficiently. All in all he's perfect and I'd hate to see him go running back to Captain walking hormone Harkness because he was unhappy here."
Ianto had to bite back a laugh at the title General O'Neill had given Ianto's former lover; it was rather apt if a little crude.
"What makes you think he's unhappy here?" Daniel asked.
"I don't know he just always seems to be by himself. He doesn't interact with any of the other staff and originally I thought it might be because he had friends closer to home that he spends most of his time with, but then I realized he lives on the base so it can't be that. I don't know, maybe he just prefers it that way, maybe he does spend time with people and I just haven't noticed, who knows. I'd just hate to think he doesn't know anyone on the base because he's too shy to approach them or because he feels like an outsider, like I said I want him to be happy here. I suppose if he's begun spending time with you now that's got to be a good thing, right?" Jack brightened at that last part.
"Actually, Jack, Ianto and I have been spending quite a bit of time together lately. I'd say I'm surprised that you hadn't noticed but I'm really not," Daniel commented dryly.
"Hey, I notice things," Jack growled indignantly.
"Sure you do," Daniel replied sarcastically.
"You know you annoy me don't you?" Jack asked.
"I strive for it, yes," Daniel replied in a perfectly even tone.
"So long as you know. Anyway, back to Ianto, you and he have been spending time together?" Jack asked.
"Yes we have," Daniel replied and Ianto could hear the smile in his voice.
"Oh hello, I know that look," Jack commented.
"What look?" Daniel asked.
"That smirk, you only get that smirk when you're really happy about something and it's even wider than normal so whatever the something is you didn't expect it," Jack replied.
"Whoa! You and I spend way too much time together," Daniel stated dryly. "But yes, you're right, I am happy and it was definitely unexpected."
"So does this unexpected something happen to be young, Welsh and spend his days walking around the base in a suit?" Jack asked and Ianto could hear the grin in his voice.
"I would have thought that was obvious considering our recent topic of conversation," Daniel replied.
"Yeah, but you never know, your mind works in mysterious ways," Jack retorted. "Don't give me that look you know I'm right. Now come on, out with it."
"We're friends, okay," Daniel replied.
"Uh-huh."
"Okay, we're really good friends, are you happy now?" Daniel asked exasperated.
"Daniel come on, I know you, spit it out."
He heard Daniel sigh. "All right, fine, I feel…at home around him. You know how you just click with certain people, the moment you meet them and you know you're going to get along? Well that's what it's like with Ianto, we just click," Daniel explained.
"Okay, so why do I get the feeling that it's more than that?" Jack asked.
"I've never felt this much of an affinity with someone, Jack, not even you," Daniel replied.
"Whoa, that is big. Well it's a good thing, right? I mean having friends you're instantly comfortable around can't be a bad thing, can it?" Jack asked.
"No, it's not, it's just foreign. I will get used to it eventually, I hope," Daniel replied.
"But in the mean time you're happy about this right? I mean you enjoy spending time with him?" Jack asked.
"Yeah I do, I like it a lot," Daniel replied.
"Well in that case this is cause for celebration. I vote we get cake," Jack announced causing Daniel to laugh.
"What is it with you and cake, Jack?" the archaeologist asked.
"It's cake, Daniel," Jack replied as if it that explained everything.
Daniel chuckled some more. "I would like him to get to know the rest of the team though; I think he'd get along well with Sam and Teal'c."
"Well, why don't you introduce them? Carter's working on something big and potentially universe changing. I'm sure she's had her head in it all day and it's almost lunch time, why don't you go find Ianto and drag him and Carter off to lunch with you," Jack suggested. "If she resists you can even tell her it's an order from me."
"You know what, I think I might. Any idea where Ianto is at the moment?" Daniel asked.
Sensing his opportunity to enter without interrupting Ianto waited until Jack started to answer before approaching the door and knocking.
"Come in," Jack called and he pushed the door open and slipped inside. "Ah, Ianto, how are you this morning?" Jack greeted him.
"I'm well thank you, Sir, how are you?" Ianto returned the greeting.
"It's Jack," the general corrected him. "And I'm great, thank you. What have you got for me?"
"Just some paper work to sign off," Ianto replied handing the papers over the desk to the older man. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt."
"No problem," Jack replied taking the stack of papers and beginning to read. "Say, Ianto, this is going to take me a little while, why don't you and Daniel go and drag Carter out of her office and make her eat something. It's almost lunch time and I doubt she's looked up from that device she's been studying all day."
Ianto fought off the smirk that threatened to cover his features at Jack's suggestion and nodded. "It would be my pleasure. Do you need anything else before I go?" he asked politely.
"No, just bring me back a coffee when you're done will you?" Jack asked with a hopeful smile.
"Of course," Ianto agreed before turning his attention to Daniel. "Ready to go?" he asked.
Daniel gave him a bright smile and nodded before climbing to his feet and following Ianto out of Jack's office.
"Have fun, Jack," Daniel called from the door way.
"Oh yes, absolutely, you too," Jack replied sarcastically, eyeing the paper work as if it had fangs.

Jack hadn't been wrong about Sam, she hadn't left her office all day and she resisted quite a bit when they tried to pry her away from her work to go to lunch. Eventually they succeeded and the three of them headed over to the commissary to find something to eat. As luck would have it they ran into Teal'c on their way down and he decided to accompany them also, so in the end lunch had been spent getting to know two of Daniel's closest friends and Ianto found himself enjoying the experience quite a bit. After lunch they dropped Sam back at her office and Ianto returned to his own work a happy smile on his face.

At 15:00 Jack let Ianto go for the afternoon since it was another slow day and Ianto headed for Daniel's office to see if he needed help with anything. He arrived to find the room empty and frowned as he thought about what else he could do for the afternoon. He should probably hop onto the internet and see if he could find somewhere to live outside of the base since it was obviously important to General O'Neill. He headed further down the corridor figuring he'd do a lap around the level rather than just heading back the way he'd come to the lift. He'd done a lot of running at Torchwood and nowhere near as much since he'd come to the SGC so he should embrace any chance he could get for some exercise.
He was thinking about what sort of place he should rent when he rounded a corner and heard a strange sound coming from one of the doors to the left. With a concerned frown he made his way over to the door which, according to the writing on the outside, led to a supply closet. He pulled it open and froze when his gaze fell on two young men who were kissing up against one of the walls.
"Whoa," he exclaimed startled as the pair noticed his presence and sprang apart. "Um, excuse me," he said quietly before closing the door once more and continuing on his way to the lift. He grinned to himself as he thought about the number of times he and his captain had nearly been caught, the grin dying instantly as he remembered that Jack wasn't his Captain anymore.
He reached the lift and hit the button hoping like hell the lift would hurry up so he could find some work to bury himself in and push the immortal man out of his mind. Just as the lift arrived the palm pilot/mobile phone he'd been given when he'd first started with the SGC beeped. He pulled it from his pocket to find a message from General O'Neill asking him to come back to his office if he hadn't left the base yet. Ianto smiled as he hit the button for the level he needed, he'd wanted work to do, looks like he was going to get some.
He arrived in the briefing room to find Teal'c, Sam and Daniel already there and discussing something with Jack. They looked up as they heard him approach and he was pleasantly surprised to see friendly smiles on all their faces.
"Ah, Ianto, good you're here," Jack exclaimed beckoning him over. "I'm sorry I know I let you go for the afternoon but we've had an incident of sorts with our good friends at UNIT and they're apparently sending someone over to "chat" to us," Jack filled him in.
"Oh joy, UNIT," Ianto stated dryly causing the others to throw him curious glances.
"I take it you've not had good dealings with them in the past?" Jack asked.
"Their relationship with Torchwood was…well…prickly would probably be the only polite term I can think of right now," Ianto replied. "We were very much about the ideal that not all aliens are bad and therefore if there was a chance to help them we should. UNIT are all about 'it's our planet it doesn't matter if they're peaceful let's kill them anyway'. We didn't get along," he elaborated.
"I see, so a bit like us and, well, everyone else involved in the Stargate program then," Jack suggested.
"A little, yeah," Ianto agreed with a nod. "Any idea who they're sending?" he asked.
"No, Davis didn't know when he came to see me before but he should be back soon with some more information," Jack replied.
Ianto nodded. "In the mean time, who'd like a coffee?" he asked.
There were instant answers of affirmative from the group and Ianto headed down to the kitchenette to make them. He'd just started up the coffee machine when he heard Daniel's voice behind him.
"Hey," he greeted Ianto quietly.
"Hey," Ianto greeted back turning around and giving the archaeologist a friendly smile.
"I haven't really had a chance to talk to you alone since we got here this morning, how are you?" Daniel asked the concern obvious in his voice.
Ianto's smile widened, Daniel really was lovely. "I'm fine thank you," he replied turning back to check on the coffee machine. "How are you after our late evening? I hope you're not too tired," he asked in return.
"No, no I'm fine, I'm used to keeping unusual hours," Daniel replied.
"I imagine you would be. So am I for the most part, Torchwood wasn't exactly a 9-5 job," Ianto replied with a grin.
"No I'd guess not," Daniel replied. There was silence for a moment and Ianto was about to ask if something was wrong when Daniel finally spoke again. "Hey um, after this meeting's over do you think I could talk to you about something?"
There was a strange edge to Daniel's voice which concerned Ianto a little but he kept a straight face and an even tone as he replied. "Sure, is something wrong?"
"No no," Daniel replied immediately. "I just wanted to ask you about something, it's nothing bad."
"Okay," Ianto replied with a nod before handing Daniel his mug. Daniel thanked him and he put the rest of the coffees on a tray to take into the briefing room. Daniel motioned for him to lead the way and Ianto gave him a friendly smile before heading back in, Daniel close behind.
He heard voices discussing something as they got closer. One he recognised immediately as General O'Neill's the other was someone new. He walked through the door to find Jack sitting down at the table with Sam and Teal'c talking to a young man with dark hair dressed in formal, blue, Air-force attire. He had his back to the door so Ianto didn't see the man's face until Jack noticed Ianto walking back in and introduced the other man as Major Paul Davis the representative from the Pentagon.
The man turned around then and Ianto had to fight not to drop the tray as he realized it was one of the couple he'd nearly run into earlier in the closet. He saw shock and worry flash through Major Davis' eyes, but his expression remained carefully neutral as Jack finished the introductions and he held out his hand to shake.
Ianto kept his expression passive, thankful for the mask he'd perfected while he'd worked for Torchwood. He put the tray gently down on the desk and took Paul's hand in his shaking it firmly. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Major," he greeted politely.
"The pleasure's all mine, Mr Jones," Paul replied his eyes relaxing when Ianto didn't say anything about their earlier meeting.
They released each other and Ianto handed out the coffee before asking Paul how he took his. Paul replied that the other guests would be arriving soon and offered to help Ianto with the coffee for them. Normally Ianto would have declined the offer but he figured Paul probably just wanted to talk to him so he agreed and led the way down the corridor. He didn't say anything, allowing Paul to get over his shock and talk when he was ready to talk. They reached the kitchenette and Ianto had just fired up the coffee machine when Paul finally broke the silence.
"Thank you, for not saying anything, I…I really appreciate you keeping my secret, you didn't have to," he said quietly.
"You don't have to thank me, Major. It's your business not mine, why would I say anything to anyone else?" Ianto asked.
"Because it's against the rules for… men like me to serve in the Air-Force, you would have been well within your rights to report me," Davis replied cautiously and Ianto couldn't help the look of surprise that immediately covered his face as he turned back to study the other man.
"Is that so? I didn't realize," he said thoughtfully and he saw Davis pale significantly. "Relax, Major, I'm not Air-Force remember. I stand by my previous statement, it's none of my business nor is it anyone else's; I won't breathe a word I promise."
Davis relaxed visibly. "Thank you, Mr Jones," he said quietly but emphatically.
"Ianto will be just fine, Major, and you're welcome. However, might I suggest limiting those activities to a room with a locked door in the future."
Paul gave him a dazzling smile in return and nodded. "I think that would be a very good idea, and call me Paul." He held out his hand to shake once more and Ianto took it.
"All right then, lovely to meet you, Paul," Ianto greeted him politely.
"Wonderful to meet you too, Ianto," Paul replied as he let go of Ianto's hand and reached forward to take one of the trays that were now full of coffee and mugs. Ianto took the other one and they headed back into the briefing room.
