Ianto woke with a start; a hand was shaking him none too gently.


“Whu?”


“Come on, Ianto, wake up!”


Peeling his eyes open, Ianto squinted up at Jack’s face, hovering over him.


Damn. No matter how many times it happened he didn’t think he’d ever get used to being dragged out of sleep in the early hours. There must have been an alert. Stupid Rift; why couldn’t it understand that people needed to sleep?


“I’m awake,” he mumbled, shoving the covers off and sitting up. The chilliness of his bedroom woke him as much as was possible after so little sleep and he slid off the bed, reaching for his clothes and starting to dress. “What’s up? Aside from us.”


Jack was dithering about, frowning at him. “Will you get a move on? If we don’t hurry we’ll be too late!”


That didn’t sound good; Ianto speeded up. “Okay, I’m ready. Let’s go.”


“Finally!” Jack hustled him outside, pausing just long enough for Ianto to pull his coat on, then broke every speed limit. Reaching their destination, Jack pulled him to the end of a long queue.


“What’s this?”


“January sales!” Jack grinned. “Don’t you want to grab a bargain?”



The End
