Title: Covert Activities
Author:
badly_knitted
Characters: Rhys, Ianto, Owen
Rating: G
Spoilers: Nada.
Summary: The three men carry out a covert plan to impress their significant others.
Disclaimer: I don’t own Torchwood, or the characters.
A/N: For one of the prompts I didn’t get around to using for tw100’s challenge 288 last year. I’ve dug them out again to supplement the prompts I got from my f-list, just because there are still loads I wanted to use.
“Are ya sure this is a good idea?” Rhys sounded dubious.
“Trust me,” Ianto replied confidently. “Our partners will be impressed that we’ve made the effort. This is important. We don’t want to show them up on the big night. Not in front of UNIT’s top brass.”
“And that’s the only reason I’m doin’ this,” Owen grumbled. “Tosh is nervous enough already, without me letting ‘er down.”
“So we’re agreed?”
“Let’s do it.”
Six weeks later, at UNIT’s New Year Ball, the three friends proved their dancing lessons had been worthwhile, as they showed of moves worthy of Fred Astaire.
The End
A/N: Prompt used was ‘The Three Astaires’
