Chapter 15

Three weeks after their first sleepover, the boys had been spending more and more nights together, often at Jack's, to make it easier on Myfanwy, even though she also came to Ianto's flat from time to time.

Jack invited Ianto to celebrate their one month-anniversary with dinner at his place, and they were both excited to have reached an anniversary – true it wasn't a real anniversary, it was only a month, but that too was something to celebrate.

When Ianto arrived that evening, the flat Jack was renting smelled amazingly of the beouf bourguignon Jack was making, and the two men settled on the couch with a glass of wine and soon Myfanwy had jumped up and laid across both men's laps, demanding attention, attention both men happily gave her while they sat kissing, whispering sweet nothing to each other.

Some time later they sat down in the kitchen, enjoying a delicious meal that Jack had carefully prepared. They talked, kissed and just enjoyed each other's company. As they had finished their main course, Ianto pulled a small parcel out of his pocket and put on the table in front of Jack.

'Happy 1-month anniversary, Jack!'

'Oh, Ianto, this is so sweet! Thank you! Happy anniversary to you too, I've really enjoyed this time, I don't know when I was last this happy…'

'I know Jack, I feel the same, I'm so happy we've found each other! So, you want to open your gift?'

Jack smiled and as he looked at the parcel Ianto could have sworn he saw a glimpse of Jack as a little boy on Christmas.

'Jack, you know, it's nothing big, I just wanted to get you something to thank you for the last month…' he said nervously, not quite sure if he had gotten the gift just right.

'I'm sure it's fantastic Ianto, and I'm just so happy we're on the same wave-length…' Jack smiled as he got up and went to the fridge, where he took out a beautifully wrapped parcel.

'For you…' he smiled as he put it down in front of Ianto.

'Oh, Jack! You're amazing, you know that? I love you!' Ianto blurted out without really realising it, but as he heard himself he looked at Jack, nervously awaiting his response, was this much too early? But then again, it was how he felt for his gorgeous American boyfriend. And he was relieved when Jack smiled at him happily, saying:

'I love you too, Ianto, I really do!' and leaned over to kiss him.

'So, we opening these gifts then?' Jack said after having looked into Ianto's eyes, feeling completely happy.

Ianto smiled at him and took up the cold parcel and started to peel of the carefully wrapped paper, looking simultaneously at what he was doing and for Jack's reaction to his gift.

He didn't have to wait for long, as Jack wasn't quite as careful and ripped of the paper and looked in amazement at the cufflinks Ianto had bought him. He actually had tears in his eyes as he leant over to kiss Ianto again, passionately, and Ianto had to put the beautiful red silk tie Jack had bought him down, to make sure he didn't wrinkle it, as he too deepened the kiss, making sure to show Jack how much he appreciated the gift and how much he loved him.

Jack and Ianto sat and kissed, and relished in each other's closeness for quite some time before Ianto pulled away, mumbling 'thank you, Jack, it's gorgeous…'

'I'm glad you like it,' Jack almost whispered, 'and the cufflinks are beautiful, just the kind I like…' he leaned in for another kiss before asking 'so, dessert?'

Ianto nodded, smiling, and Jack got up and took out to two glasses of chocolate mousse from the fridge.

'Why don't we make ourselves a bit more comfortable before we eat this?' Ianto smiled at Jack, lust glittering in his eyes, making Jack take his hand, leading him into the living room. They fed each other chocolate mousse, kissed, and shed several pieces of clothing, before moving into the bedroom.

During the past few weeks, they had taken things slowly, and not yet "consummated" their relationship, although they had done other things… During one of their many sleep-overs, Jack had kissed Ianto's entire body, before taking him in his mouth, and Ianto had never experienced something so wonderful. However, without saying it in so many words, they both hoped that tonight would be the night was night that they took everything one step further. Ianto, although he felt slightly nervous, could hardly wait to feel Jack inside of him, and to able be inside Jack. And Jack definitely felt the same, he knew that they loved each other, and everything felt so right with Ianto, he couldn't wait to make him his in every way, and give himself entirely to his beautiful Welshman.

Jack, knowing that Ianto had never gone this far with a man before, took everything very slowly, kissing Ianto's entire body, making him completely relaxed and making sure Ianto was completely with him on every single move. And Ianto was, the last months he had thought so much of Jack, wanting this so much, and as Jack entered him for the first time, after the first pain had subsided, he felt completely happy, being filled by Jack as he looked deeply in Jack's eyes. Later that night, Jack gently guided Ianto in their love-making and he too felt complete as Ianto came inside of him. As they fell asleep, in each other's arms, like they were now used to, both of them felt happier than ever.
