"Sir? Can we talk?"

Jack looked up at Ianto and smiled, the same smile that made Ianto's heart skip a beat every time he saw it.

"Sure Ianto. What's on your mind?"

There was a silence while Ianto was building up the courage to tell Jack that he loved him.

"Ianto? Are you okay?"

"I'm fine sir. Just trying to figure out how the sentence should sound."

"Ah okay. Well in the mean time I have something I need to tell you."

"Go right ahead sir."

"Okay, here it goes. I'm…."

Jack mumbled so much that Ianto couldn't understand what he was saying.

"I'm sorry sir, I didn't hear that last part."

"I'm in love with you."

"Oh."

"Oh? Oh? I say that I'm in love with you and all you say is oh?"

"Which brings me back to why I'm here."

"Huh?"

Jack looked so adorable when he was confused, so all Ianto could do was smile.

"The reason I came up here, was because I wanted to tell you that I'm in love with you. But it looks like you beat me to it."

"Yeah, it looks like I did."

Jack got out of his chair and walked over Ianto, put his arms round the other man, and kissed him until it was time to come up for air.

"I love you Ianto Jones."

"I love you too Jack Harkness."
