Work Text:

Jack lay on his belly watching the hotel room TV, his feet toward the headboard. He knew most of the team was enjoying the spa, but that Ianto was in the adjoining room showering in his room's ensuite. Jack knew that Ianto was still in the shower, because he could hear the water through the wall.

At some point, Jack dozed-off until he felt the bed give hext to his hip.

"Go back to sleep," Ianto whispered as he gently drew circles with his index finger through Jack's vest.

"That's nice," Jack said. "Stay with me."

"Until you fall asleep," Ianto said.

"Please," Jack pleaded, trying to not let himself cry.

Ianto couldn't say no to Jack during the best of times. This was far from the best of times. Jack was in pain. Ianto did the only thing he could think to do, use himself as a blanket. He crawled into bed next to Jack and draped himself over Jack's back, his lower body between Jack's legs.

Jack sighed at the weight of Ianto's body. It was a relief to feel loved for the first time in a year.

"Go back to sleep, Cariad," Ianto said. "I have you."
