Chapter 3

Ianto went in to his house. A voice at the top of the stairs called down" is that you Yan? "

"Yes, it's me Gwen" replied Ianto from the hallway downstairs

Gwen came how the stairs holding a dirty washing basket "how was work?"

"It was ok. How has your day been" replied Ianto taking the dirty washing basket off Gwen and walking into the kitchen

"Hectic. Theo ill got that bug that has been going round. Jamie got sent home from school for fighting with another lad; Lottie is still being bulled and came home in tears yet again and on top of all that I'm bloody pregnant"

"haha oh dear sounds like you have had quite a day" said Ianto loading the dirty washing into the washing machine.

"You're telling me"

"When is Owen Home?"

"Don't know got a call earlier saying there is some kind of emergency he had to deal with so it's going to be a late one"

"Oh dear"

Ianto later found himself sat in the pub waiting for the mysterious captain Jack Harkness to show up.

"Hey" said Jack as he came in and walked over to where Ianto was sat at a table in the corner

"Hello"

"You not drinking anything alcoholic" Jack questions eying the glass of coke sat in front of Ianto on the table.

"No never really a good idea for me to drink" replied Ianto

Jack raised and eye brow "suit yourself, well I'm going to get a drink be back in a sec don't miss me too much"

Ianto just sat there and rolled his eyes.

Jack returned to the table with a scotch and sipped it and then placed the glass on the table.

"Why did you ask me to come for a drink" said Ianto getting his words out way too quickly.

"I just thought that we could have a chat "

"Ok what about" said Ianto a hint of concern in his voice

"Anything, nothing serious" said Jack swirling his drink then taking another sip.

Ianto could feel I kind of awkwardness between them.

Jack brock the ice "so are you with anyone"

Ianto looked down then looked back up at Jack and said "nope" he was not quite sure where this was going.

They spent the next three hours talking about nothing and was about 11:30 now.

Jack said "do you fancy coming back to mine for a bet we can talk some more a few more drinks"

"Yes ok" replied Ianto

Not long after they both found themselves sat in Jacks surprisingly neat flat and Ianto way perched on the edge of the sofa and Jack handed him a drink. Ianto took the glass his hands momentarily touching Jacks he felt a sudden bolt of electricity between them. Then Jack say down a few moments passed.

"you have gone quiet again" said Jack

"Have I! Sorry" replied Ianto almost shyly. He was now completely confused he did know what was going on, or how he even felt about Jack. He felt something for the man sat opposite him he had for a bit now, somehow the way he acted the way he was all the banter that when on between then the suttal look Jack would give him the little spark in his eye and somehow it was like a drug as soon as he got some he wanted more as more, and he was sat here with Jack his boss and it seemed completely normal, but Ianto was not gay he had never done anything or had feeling for another man before

Then in one moment of madness Ianto kissed Jack there tong's found their way into each other's mouth's the feeling was one of the best Ianto had felt in a while electrifying. Ianto had one hand on the back of jacks neck and the other on his side. Jacks hands where on Ianto one stroking his back gently and the other in his hair pulling ever so slightly. Ianto pulled back and looked at Jack. Then he sat back and leaned his head on the back of the sofa.

"Well that was unexpected" said Jack sounding almost surprised.

"Sorry" apologised Ianto

"There is nothing to be sorry for" placing a hand on Ianto's leg and smiled at him.

Ianto did not know what he had these feeling for Jack he suspected now thinking deeper to when they first meet that a stranger could seem to care for him and offer him a job since then Jack had been like a rock to Ianto keeping him on the straight and narrow at the moment Jack would always know if there was something up with Ianto and would always ask him but Ianto really talked to people about his problems but he had been able to open up a bit to Jack, but not the whole story about what that happened to him the April before they met

"I should go" replied Ianto

"Do you what a lift"

"No thanks I will be fine. See you tomorrow" and with that Ianto was gone. Thinking to himself that he could do with the long walk home to go through the event that had just happened.
