Sleeper

Unlike Ianto, I don't sleep. Some nights I stay with him, listening to his breath, feeling the comforting warmth of his naked body against me. Sometimes I lean over to sniff his skin or hair, letting him fill all my senses.

Sometimes this wakes him, and we make love.

Sometimes dreams disturb him, and I hold him to soothe him. He dreams of Lisa, and weeps. Sometimes the nightmares are of cannibals and aliens, or - whatever any man might fear, in our line of work.

Asleep or awake, I have my own nightmares.

Such is life in Torchwood.
