Ianto started a little bit at the touch to his hand, lost in his thoughts of how exactly everything was going to work that day, what with being tied to Sulu and stuck with Jack. He wasn't used to quite so much contact. He could usually disappear into the recesses of the Hub for a few hours by himself, if he needed to have a moment, but. He supposed there would be no moments to himself while this was going on. Not while the other two were awake, at least. He tried to cover up the fact that Sulu had startled him out of his thought process, but he still turned his head to look at the other a bit faster than would really be considered normal.
"Hm? Oh, yeah. I'm..." Ianto smiled slightly, trying to brush it all off, trying to not be affected by all of this, because really, he felt like he shouldn't be. He really shouldn't be fixated on the thought that it was Sulu attached to him, that he woke up with him and was probably going to have to go to sleep with him that night, that he was going to have to spend the entire day with him, and yet he, Ianto, who loved his solitude, really didn't mind so much at all. In some dark recess of his mind, he might actually enjoy all of this. "I'm alright," he said, finally. "C'mon." He cocked his head towards the door. "The sooner we get out there, the sooner we'll be done with this bloody car trip." He turned and started leading Sulu out, grabbing his house keys on the way out, taking a breath before stepping outside, hoping none of his neighbors were out at that hour to see him exiting the house with no shirt, handcuffed to an unknown woman, with another man waiting for them in the car.
Jack smiled at them from behind the wheel, hitting the button to unlock all the doors. "Hop on in," he said, though it sounded more like a command to Ianto.
