Time to Spare

Title: Time to Spare
Characters: Gwen and Jack
Word count: 100
Challenge: tw100 prompt: What could go wrong?
Rating: PG
Summary: Surely Gwen has plenty of time.

Gwen paused, aware that she hadn’t yet responded to the question asked of her, and knowing that time was of the essence. 

She glanced at her watch and did some quick working out. It was just one alien sighting in town. It couldn’t take more than a couple of hours surely? 

“So, are you coming or not?” Jack asked again, standing by the door.

She wouldn’t get this chance again for a while.

“Let me grab my gun.” she shouted back.

After all, she had a while to go before her hen night started, and what could possibly go wrong?

What could go wrong at Torchwood? :)

Great ending line, there. I love that.

Why thank you! Glad you liked it.

what could possibly go wrong? of course, as it wasn't Torchwood!

Torchwood is always safe...Isn't it? :o)

Thanks for commenting.

Oh this was good...and it's got that...oh crap sense because we all know what happens,...

[jooles34.livejournal.com]

Lol, thank you. I wanted to do one that led to an event we all knew. The calm before the inevitable...

Very good. Love the ending and how it sets up Something Borrowed (and how even without it being Jack/Gwen, there's just that hint that she'll always follow her Captain.)

Thank you so much; I'm so glad you picked up on that. It was the idea that her honeymoon would take her away from Jack and chasing aliens so she was making the most of the time she had.

Thanks.

Ha, we know how that ended, and this is *perfect* logic for how she ended up there. Gotta love Gwen for keeping up that optimism.

Nice!

Thank you! She always looks on that bright side. I always wondered what posessed her to go out so soon before the hen night when Ianto and Tosh were presumably around, and this prompt gave me the perfect opportunity to find out!
