I have work to do.” Ianto said, voice and posture stiff.

“Ianto, come on.” Jack laughed, reaching for him. Ianto yanked his arm away, a snarl tearing from his lips. Jack jerked as if he hadbeen burned, and Ianto’s face fell.  

“Don’t, Jack. Just…don’t.” Ianto pulled a chair out, and sat down, his entire body bleeding exhaustion.
