Since the Rift was in a slow phase, Ianto and Jack had taken the opportunity to invite the rest of the team over for dinner. Gwen and Rhys were the first to arrive, but when Ianto answered the door to them, he got a very odd look from Gwen.
 

“Oh, did we get the day wrong?” she asked uncertainly. “Or are we too early?” Beside her, Rhys, clutching a bottle of wine, shuffled his feet awkwardly.
 

Ianto was puzzled. “No, you’re right on time. Tosh and Owen should be here shortly. Please, come in.”

 
“Are you sure it’s alright?”
 

“Why wouldn’t it be?” Ianto stepped back and gestured for them to enter.
 

“Um, well, it looked like we might have interrupted something.” Blushing, Gwen pointed at what Ianto had in his hand.
 

“Oh, no.” Ianto grinned. “Jack insisted on getting everything set up for later.”
 

Now it was Rhys who looked worried. “Set up?”
 

Ianto smiled reassuringly and waved the paddle. “Ever since he bought all the equipment at a charity shop, he’s been itching for a chance to challenge everyone to a table tennis tournament.” He raised an eyebrow at Gwen. “Why, what did you think this was for?”
 

 
The End

LMAO.

I'm sure Ianto knew EXACTLY what Gwen was thinking and enjoyed messing with her head ;)

Thank you!

[siberian_skys]

You're welcome.

I have a feeling that it was Ianto's not Jack's idea to mess with her head. Just like he messed with Martha's head when she got too nosy.

[badly_knitted]

Of course it was. But the table tennis set is very real, Jack saw it and couldn't resist buying it. He never can resist anything he can play with.

[siberian_skys]

Jack and his toys.

[badly_knitted]

He likes to win, of course ;)

[siberian_skys]

I think they both have a competitive nature.

[badly_knitted]

But Ianto is a good loser and Jack isn't.

[siberian_skys]

Unless Owen is involved.

[badly_knitted]

Ianto doesn't lose to Owen.

[siberian_skys]

Owen likes to think he does.

[badly_knitted]

Owen is sadly mistaken.

LOL. Yeah, not surprising Gwen would get the wrong idea there. I mean, I'm sure Jack does enjoy getting a paddling when he's been naughty. 😉 I do like it when Ianto 'subtly' reminds those who have a crush on Jack who he belongs to.

Ianto does love to mess with Gwen's head, but Jack really does want to challenge everyone so he can beat them, probably by cheating *pets Jack*

Thank you!
