Comment or Excerpt from fic: I remember reading this fic right after watching TSE and I was crying the whole time, mainly because at that time, I didn't know how it was going to end, so... *sniffles*
~*~*~*~*~
EXCERPT:
It should hurt, Ianto thinks, this last betrayal... but it doesn’t. This time, unlike those before, it’s bigger than him, bigger than both of them...
Jack doesn’t know about the immediate threat. Jack can’t know. Ianto will make sure of it.
... And... A quick glance toward the computer station, and Ianto knows he won’t be here when Jack returns.
Ianto wishes they had more time together... But time is the very thing of which they have none left... Staring at Jack, trying to memorize his face, Ianto forces a small smile and hopes it looks sincere. He can barely breathe for the inescapable doom pressing in on them, but he is the loyal soldier, and this is his final part to play. For Jack.
And when Ianto forces out reassurance he doesn’t believe, hope he doesn’t feel as his voice breaks, saying “We’ll be fine,” what he really means is, “Goodbye.”
