Title: Coming home part 2

As Jack drove he kept stealing glances towards Ianto. Since getting into the car, Ianto had barely said a word. Jack knew this was going to be a big step for him and he wished he knew how he could help to make it easier. Pulling up to Ianto's apartment, Jack turned off the ignition and placed a hand on Ianto's leg. 'Hey, you ok?' Ianto turned towards Jack and tried to smile but failed, 'Yeah, come on lets go.' Ianto undid his seat belt and got out of the car. Jack followed, grabbing the bag from the car as he went.

Reaching Ianto, Jack handed him his house keys. With a slightly trembling hand Ianto opened the door and walked inside. Jack walked past the living room and went to put the carrier bag in Ianto's room. When he came back out to where he expected Ianto to be he was greeted with an empty living room. It wasn't until he heard a soft sob did he find Ianto sitting on the floor in the kitchen, his head in his hands.

Jack slowly moved into the kitchen and slid down to sit next to Ianto, gathering him in his arms. 'Hey….. It's ok, I'm here.' Ianto held onto Jack with all of his strength… 'I'm sorry Jack. I tried so hard to keep it in….. not to think about it.' Jack pulled Ianto closer to him and kissed the top of his head. 'Hey you have nothing to be sorry for and you don't need to keep it all in Ianto, I am here ok.' Ianto nodded and buried his head in Jack's chest breathing in his scent. Jack moved one of his arms away from Ianto and put it under his legs lifting him up into his arms and carried him into his bedroom. Placing Ianto gently on the bed, Jack moved round to the other side and gently lay down beside him. He slid his arms over Ianto and pulled him closer to him. With his back pressed up against Jacks chest, Ianto started to relax. Jack stroked Ianto's hair with the other hand, 'Ianto can I confess something to you?' Ianto didn't answer but Jack took the slight nod of his head that it was ok to continue.

'When this all happened I thought it was all my fault… You were only there because of me. When you were in a coma I don't know whether you could hear me but I spoke to you…. Everyday… I even sang.' At hearing this, Ianto rolled over onto his back so that he could see Jack's face. 'Really?' Jack nodded and continued stroking Ianto's hair, 'Yep, I thought that if you heard me, then you would know I was there and come back to me. Ianto… I really need you to know that I need you and want you in my life. I know that I have done some stupid things in the past and I know that I am going to do stupid things in the future but I was kinda hoping you'd be there to help me see that I'm a complete idiot.' Ianto looked deep into Jack's eyes once more, 'What are you saying Jack?'

Jack sat up and pulled Ianto into his lap, sitting him between his legs. 'I am saying that no matter what you go through or where you are, I will be with you, whether it's person or just in your heart. I want to wake up to you each morning and go to sleep with you by my side every night.' Ianto intertwined his fingers with Jacks and lent back into him. 'What's the difference between what we do now. You go to sleep beside me almost every night and wake up with me in the mornings?' Jack lent in closer and kissed Ianto's temple before answering, 'It's different because I want it to be forever and you to be mine to have and to hold for as long as we both shall live.' Ianto raised an eyebrow at Jack's last statement , 'That doesn't quite work Jack.' Jack chuckled….' Yeah I don't think I thought that one through… but I mean it Ianto…. Everything.' Ianto turned round in jack's arms and stared at him intently.

'Will you marry me Jones, Ianto Jones?'

TADA! OMG! What will Ianto say? Will it be what Jack thinks the answer will be? Upcoming chapters little less angst but not pure fluff…. I know… Im being painful… Love to my bunnie chasers…
