Summary: Gwen and Tosh are bored and decide to liven up their morning.***
Tosh and Gwen were bored. Very bored. Since Gwen had overslept that morning and ignored Jack's urgent summons to the Hub, and so missed going out to hunt what Jack had called a Yellow Necked Agiston, and Tosh had been staring at her computer screen directing the three men on said job, the two of them were now sat wondering what to do. The clock on Tosh's computer flicks over to 11:03 and she sighs. Last time she looked it said 11:01.
From the bathrooms comes the sound of the showers running where Jack, Ianto and Owen are showering off the gungey remains of the Agiston that Jack had 'forgotten' exploded when stressed or cornered. Unluckily Ianto and Owen had done both. A subsequent gunge fight aimed at mostly at Jack in the multi storey car park was a minor inconvenience that Tosh had to smooth over with the council that morning.
She looks over at Gwen who is bouncing a rubber ball on the surface of her desk. "Bored?"
"How did you guess?" she says grinning her gap-toothed grin back. "There's gotta be something we…could…hey…"
"What?" Toshiko frowns over her glasses.
Gwen swivels in her chair and scoots back to her desk. She brings up iTunes on the screen and swiftly scrolls down. Tosh goes and leans over her shoulder, and smiles when she sees the song.
"You can't…"
"Can't I?" Gwen grins wickedly. "You just need to hook up a nice loud alarm and I'll go to the vending machine."
Tosh grins back and does as she is told.
At 11:06 precisely the two girls settle back onto their chairs which are faced towards the doorway, and Tosh sets off the shrieking Hub lockdown alarm, without actually locking down anything. The door from the showers crashes open and Gwen hits play on her computer. The strains of 'I Just Want To Make Love To You' echo round the Hub as Tosh deactivates the alarm. They each take a sip from their drinks can and share a sly grin.
The three men stand there dripping and glaring at them. Ianto and Owen have grabbed towels around their waists but Jack is butt naked and aiming his pistol at them. Ianto's hair is messed up into a mass of wet spikes and he is now blushing.
Gwen grins over at Tosh and raises her eyebrows naughtily, nodding at Owen. Tosh glances back at Owen whose angry glare fades instantly as he rearranges his towel. Tosh gives him a look.
"Oh fuck off," he whirls round and stomps out of the room.
"I'm…err…going to…go that way," Ianto mumbles and follows Owen quickly.
Jack lowers the pistol. "You two are so dead!"
Tosh merely offers him a sweet smile. "Before or after you get dressed Jack?"
He raises an eyebrow. "See something you like?"
She grins and takes a drink.
Jack wordlessly jabs a finger in their direction. "There will be repercussions for this!" He follows the other two.
"Totally worth it!" Gwen laughs.
Tosh nods in agreement and they clink cans in a toast. "Diet Coke break, same time tomorrow?"
