Summary: When is a choice not a choice?
Standing in the busy supermarket, Jack faced Ianto.
“They have blue, green, yellow, red or white,” he said.
“Okay,” Ianto replied, “I’ll have a blue one.”
Jack frowned. “Not red?”
“What’s wrong with blue?” Ianto asked.
“Nothing, I suppose,” Jack grumbled, “It’s just, red suits you.”
"Jack, why did you bother to list all the available colours in the first place?”
“I just thought you’d like to choose.”
“So your idea of letting me choose is to pout until I pick the one you think I should get?”
Jack pouted. “Red’s your colour.”
Ianto rolled his eyes. “Jack, it’s a toothbrush! I’m not going to be wearing it!”
*pout*
“Okay, fine, I’ll have a red one. Happy now?”
Jack’s smile lit up the whole store.
Sometimes, Ianto mused to himself, it was worth letting Jack get his way, just
to see him smile like that.
The End.
Sorry, couldn't help myself!

Date: 2010-09-19 09:40 am (UTC)I was in the checkout queue on day and this popped into my head, so when I got home I wrote it. The third fic I started, but the first to actually get finished, so though it's daft, I was quite proud of myself for actually writing something, even if it's a bit short!
Thanks for reading and commenting! =)
