A/N: Smut warning for this chapter!

Jack held Ianto's hand as they walked into the restaurant. Ianto looked around, it was the new Italian place that had opened a few months ago and he hadn't got round to going to yet. He looked around and wished Jack had told him this was where they were going, the whole place was more than a bit posh. At least he was wearing a suit. Jack must have planning this for months because the restaurant had a long waiting list.

A waiter took them to their table and got them each a menu before leaving them. Jack looked over at Ianto, "Is this alright? We can go if you want."

Ianto looked across the table at a concerned Jack. "It's fine. Really, it's lovely."

Jack looked happy and leaned in closer to Ianto. "You wouldn't believe how long it took to get a reservation here."

The waiter came back and after they'd both ordered, Jack stood up, "I'm just going to the bathroom." he explained.

Ianto nodded as Jack walked over to the toilets.

Jack stared at his reflection in the washroom's mirror. "I've got to do it, I've got to know for sure," he thought. He chastised himself for being nervous. He was Captain Jack Harkness, Leader of Torchwood Cardiff and the Earth's first line of defence against alien threats. He fought evil alien masterminds on a daily basis, battled weevils and he was immortal for god's sake! He splashed some water on his face and took a deep breath.

The food had already arrived by the time Jack had got back from the bathroom. Ianto had typically waited for Jack to return before starting to eat. 'At least Ianto would be distracted for a bit,' he thought, 'No! This can't wait.'

Jack put down his fork and swallowed a mouthful of food. "Ianto, there's something I have to tell you. In fact, it's something that I've wanted to say to you for a long time, but I didn't because I wasn't sure if it was what you wanted. I don't want you to think that I felt obliged to say it in any way because of the 'B' word.

Okay, here goes. I've spent a long time trying to hide who I am from people, because I believed you'd all have been better of not having anything to do with me. I didn't think I deserved it. I tried to distance myself, not just from you, from everyone. But I only ended up making you feel isolated and myself feel even worse. I honestly thought it for the best but-"

Ianto grabbed hold of Jack's hand, "What are you saying, Jack?"

Jack looked up at his Ianto's worried expression.

"I love you. I really do and I always have."

Ianto stared into Jack's eyes as he sub-consciously rubbed his thumb over Jack' knuckles in a gesture Jack found very soothing. Ianto remained silent, Jack looked away. He'd got it wrong, he thought glumly, this wasn't what Ianto had wanted.

"I love you too."

Jack looked up as Ianto leaned over the table and gently brought their lips together in a soft kiss. Jack closed his eyes and didn't open them until the kiss ended. When he did, a small ripple of applause broke out in the restaurant. He looked across at Ianto who still had a hand on his cheek and was smiling at him.

Jack paid the bill and escorted Ianto back to his flat. Ianto barely had time to fumble with the lock before Jack pounced on him, devouring his mouth with desperate, hungry kisses.

They collapsed into the flat, pulling at each other's clothes. Ianto yanked down Jack's braces as Jack tried to get Ianto's shirt unbuttoned. Somehow, with a great deal of struggling and the sloppy meeting of mouths, both Jack and Ianto managed to fall naked on Ianto's bed.

Ianto pulled Jack towards him to reclaim his mouth, rubbing his hardness against Jack's.

"Ianto…" Jack pleaded.

Ianto could tell his lover was close and eased some of the pressure from his groin. Jack reached over and pulled a tube of lubricant from where he knew Ianto usually kept it, in the bedside cabinet. He quickly coated his fingers in the slippery substance and slowly pushed a finger inside Ianto's tight opening.

Ianto groaned as he felt Jack stretch him with a second finger and then a third. Jack grinned as he angled his fingers upwards, meeting Ianto's prostate. Ianto bucked underneath him and cried out, "Jack!"

Jack entered Ianto in one thrust, pausing to give Ianto's body a chance to adjust to the intrusion before starting to build a steady rhythm. Ianto's flushed face and neck let Jack know that the Welshman was close to coming. Jack sped up his thrusts to hit Ianto's prostate every time. Jack reached down to grasp Ianto's swollen, leaking cock and pump it in time with his thrusts.

The dual stimulation was too much for Ianto, "Jack….please…too close!"

Jack was close too, "Come with me, love," he whispered.

Jack began to speed up his strokes until he felt Ianto beginning to clench tightly around his shaft.

Ianto came, his cry muffled by Jack's shoulder. Jack was sent over the edge at the same time and shouted his release as they rode out their orgasms together.

They both lay panting as Jack withdrew from Ianto's body. Ianto reached up to brush his thumb over Jack's lower lip before pressing his own mouth to it. When they finally broke apart, Ianto whispered into the warmth of Jack's chest, "I really do love you."

Jack ran his hands softly through Ianto's hair. "I really do love you too." Jack rubbed Ianto's earlobe gently between his fingers in a relaxing motion which made Ianto feel very sleepy.

"And I always will." Jack whispered the promise softly.
