TW Fic: Life Preserver (1/1)

[lizzledpink]

Title: Life Preserver
Author: lizzledpink 
Rating: PG
Pairing: Jack/Ianto
Spoilers: 2x11 (Adrift).
Summary: Drabble. The Captain has his own scars to bear, buried deep within.

Disclaimer: I own nothing, I make no money.
A/N: Inspired, of course, by the Captain's Blog. ("Seeing Gwen experience it for the first time took me right back to when I first heard that terrible scream. After Gwen had gone home, I just held on to Ianto for a couple of hours, as tightly as I could." - CJH) Hooray, canon fluff!

:::

“It reminded me,” Jack says thickly. “Seeing her… It… The first time I went there.” He looks up at me, his eyes so very blue, so very tired. “The first time I heard that terrible scream.”

I walk over to him, still quiet. I could show him kindness, or pity. I could give him platitudes, tell him it will be okay. But I know better.

He lightly tugs at my tie, and then kisses me – not a snog, a proper kiss. I can tell he wants to cry.

I try not to let on that I want to cry, too.

When you feel like crying because your partner is in pain you know you're in love.
