The Egg Dialogue
A Torchwood Easter-fluff fic
Jack explains to Ianto what he thinks about him and Ianto doesn't get the answer he expected
__________________

He had no idea why he had waited until Easter to ask this question and once it was out Ianto almost regretted to have asked it in the first place. He couldn't really read the expression on Jack's face when the other man went silent for a while and with every passing second Ianto's anxiousness grew.

It was no great surprise to him that Jack didn't answer immediately. In fact he would have been disappointed if the captain's answer would have followed as fast as his usual innuendo. Silence meant that Jack was putting some thought behind his answer. What did hit Ianto a little by surprise though was the answer that his boss and lover provided him with.

"Excuse me?"

Both were in Jack's office when Ianto blurted the question, Jack in his chair and Ianto leaning against the desk. The captain was appropriate to the season unwrapping a present basket full of various chocolate eggs and was now doing his best to minimize its content.

"I said..."Jack reached into the basket and presented Ianto a red wrapped treat "You remind me of this Easter egg."

"Yeah, I think I got this answer." Ianto stated not without a little dismay.

"Oh, don't look at me like that." Jack's grin was blinding but the young man was currently fighting two really strong urges. "I just answered your question after all."

Urge one: running and hiding deep down in the archives and urge two and this alternative looked pretty attractive to him at the moment: decorating that grin with his fist. Ianto didn't realize that he was scowling because he was contemplating a way to follow both through when he replied. "I was being serious."

Jack regarded the young man for a moment and expression grew a little firmer "And so was I."

"I asked you what I am to you and that's your answer?"

"Don't you wanna hear my explanation first before you ban me to the couch?" Jack cooed and grabbed Ianto's hands who was still glaring at him but didn't struggle.

"I can't imagine any way you could explain your comparison of me with an egg."

"Easter egg." Jack clarified and rubbed his thumbs soothingly over Ianto's palms.

"Oh well... Easter egg then." Ianto huffed a little calmer. "I hope your explanation is not that I'm round and easy to crack once I get hit on."

"No it isn't" Jack chuckled "And neither is 'easy to peel once pressed against a table'."

"Good. I would have killed you for any unwrapping puns."

"Ooh, shame." Jack smirked "I had such a good one with wrapping foil."

"Well then?" Ianto looked at his opposite with expectant eyes.

"Well what?" The captain asked in mock surprise.

Ianto smiled despite himself "Still waiting."

"Okay first of all..." Jack propped the first egg into his mouth, picked an identical one out of the basket and held it up. "They are always very pretty to look at and I love them with a dash of red."

"Flattering will get you nowhere Jack. But..." Ianto had to struggle hard to keep a straight face at Jack's reasoning but somehow he managed to look stern. "Point taken. I hope this wasn't everything, cause following this explanation I could also be a candy cane."

"Well actually I..." Jack began but Ianto quickly interrupted him not ready to change their subject yet and definitely not willing to let himself be too distracted by candy cane kinks.
"Wrong season Jack." he laughed "Tell me on Christmas, okay?"

"Oh right then. Okay, where was I?" Jack carefully unwrapped the sweet treat. "Oh yes. Pretty exterior. Look at these nice curves." he exclaimed with an impressed whistle.

"Only you can make eggs sexy." Ianto muttered.

"Absolutely not, eggs are sexy."

"Alright." Ianto chuckled "Let's don't elaborate this topic for now."

Jack stood up and took one measured step forwards to bring himself closer to the younger man murmuring "But that's another reason."

"Are you telling me that eggs turn you on?" Ianto answered frowning but not stepping back.

"Well, not exactly... " The older man leered at him and made another step forwards.
"I mean yes, chocolate can be a sensual thing not to mention the silky candy cream filling... And you know." Jack brought the chocolate egg to his lips and sucked gently on its tip. "I like to suck on them until I get..."

"Eerrm okay I think I've got the picture, just note: you think they're sexy."
Ianto stepped back and turned away blushing, not noticing the big smirk on Jack's face.

"No more distracting pictures till I'm finished huh?" Jack chuckled.
"I'll try to behave myself but if I can persuade you we'll come back to this point later, alright?"

His smile broadened to a wide grin when the other man nodded.
"Anyway..." He unwrapped another one and showed it to Ianto. "How does this one look to you?"

The young man just stared for a few minutes at the dark chocolate coating before he replied. "Brown."

"Brown? Is that everything?" Jack roared "Come on, you can do better."

"Hmmm." Ianto turned his attention back to the egg. "I don't know..." he frowned "It's just a simple chocolate egg."

"Exactly." Jack replied smiling. "It doesn't look very special, does it?"

Ianto shook his head "Not really."

"Now close your eyes for me and open your mouth."

"If I'd get a pence for every time I hear this sentence..." Ianto sighed in mock annoyance and winked at Jack before he did as he was told.

"None of that kind my boy, at least not for now..."
Ianto didn't have to open his eyes to know that Jack was grinning from ear to ear.
Oh well, he couldn't help a grin, Jack said 'for now' and until then he would tag along with this little game.

"Don't bite..."

"Now where have I heard this sentence before? You should know me better by now Jack."

"Just let it melt..." Jack murmured, the amusement clearly audible in his voice. "And tell me what you taste."

"Dark chocolate." At first Ianto only felt nothing but the sensation of sweet milk chocolate mixed with the bitter aroma of the dark chocolate slowly melting on his tongue and then Ianto had to take a deep gulp when suddenly the sensation of Jack's hands on his skin added to his chocolate-y encounter with the chocolate egg.

"That's right, dark and a hint of bitterness on the surface but wait a little.“ Jack’s low chuckle practically rumbled through Ianto's body "Just let it melt and you'll know what I'm talking about." Ianto's breathing hitched when he felt Jack's lips brushing his ear, growling. "What do you taste now?"

"Rich chocolate nut cream." Ianto had to concentrate very hard on the broad spectrum of flavours to keep himself from quivering when Jack's lips slowly moved on to his neck.

"Yeah." Jack murmured lowly. „Lovely and sweet on the inside. So soft, so tender, so...rich." punctuating each and every point with a soft kiss on Ianto's throat.

"Mmmh...there is brittle."

"Oh yeah... " Ianto couldn't suppress a moan any longer when the other man started to worry his neck with his teeth.
"A few edgy spots which only add to the general flavour. They can take you by surprise and may hurt at times but the bristle is what makes it special...can you taste the small hint of alcohol? It goes under your skin..."Jack's hands ghosted over Ianto's chest "Stirs up your blood...heats up your body..." Ianto let out a surprised gasped when Jack pulled him roughly against his body "And once you've got a first taste it's addicting. I really like this brand"

Ianto smiled, turned around and threw his arms around Jack's neck to claim his kiss. „Can’t really argue against this kind of reasoning."

"Told you so." Jack grinned salaciously and licked his lips, still sweet from the melted chocolate in Ianto's mouth. "The Harkness logic never fails."

"Alright my big strong honeybun." Ianto ran a finger down Jack's broad chest and smiled broadly at his lover.

The captain pulled back, frowning "Honeybun?"

"Who else..." Ianto grinned and ground his hips against Jack's "Would get so excited by an Easter egg?"

"You know..." Jack laughed and squeezing Ianto's bottom he whispered throatily "That's not the only thing I've got in common with bunnies."

Ianto just cocked an eyebrow and replied drily "Down your hole?"

And while he watched Jack bursting into laughter Ianto revised his earlier opinion.
It was good that he asked Jack this question overall.
His heart made a little jump when Jack pressed a fond little kiss on his lips.

"Absolutely my sweet little Easter egg."
