Shifting Light

She loved it.
As soon as Rhys gave it to her, she adored it. In quiet moments, she tilted her hand back and forth, watching it sparkle in the shifting light.
She showed it to Tosh, and Owen, and Ianto. Later, she showed them again.
It fitted her finger perfectly; it felt right.

Then Jack returned, unexpectedly.
His fingertips slid down her arm. He was seconds away from feeling it, and it would stop him saying the words she was finally so close to hearing.
His thumb brushed the top of it, and his breath caught.
Suddenly, she hated it.

Thankyou :) Sorry for the double slaying, glad you managed to resurrect each time! And thanks for the awesome review on ff.net! <3

Excellent icon use below! I swear I typed every combination of jack, gwen, torchwood, ring, engagement and kiss kiss bang bang into yahoo images to try and find a photo like that to use for an icon here, but I epically failed! So yay for the pic being on the page now :D

*hugs Gwen* She's so flawed and torn between the two things she holds dearest.

Thanks for this. :)
