A/N : This kind of just wrote itself, God knows there is know plan at this point.

Jack ran to the local park. He stopped when he saw the person who had text him, "What are you doing here?"

The boy raised his eyebrows, "That's what I get after two years? Well, you still have my mobile number, I suppose that's one thing," Jack narrowed his eyes at him so he continued, "My parents are at yours talking to your mum about you two coming back to America. They thought it'd be nice if me and you 'caught up'." They boy looked a little older than Jack, but was a few inches shorter. He was good looking, and had an English accent which occasionally slipped and sounded slightly American, "I've missed you."

"When are you leaving?" Blunt much.

"In a couple of days," the boy shrugged, "Your lovely mother suggested that we stay with you, my parents declined, but they insisted that I stay. So I'm guessing you never said anything about-"

"No, I didn't. If I did you would not still be here."

"I've changed Jack, living like a priest."

"I-" Jack was cut off when the older boy kissed him. Before he even knew what he was doing, he found himself kissing back. It was fierce and fast until Jack pushed the boy back roughly, "Listen, I don't want you here but it looks like I have no choice, so you better stay away from me and my friends," Jack hissed through gritted teeth. The boy smiled smugly, but Jack didn't notice as he looked over the boys shoulder and saw one of his friends sat on a bench, "We're going," Jack said before turning and walking away as quick as he could, the other boy following.

"Gwen are you ok? Was that Jack?"

"Yeah, but that other guy wasn't Ianto," she said not looking back at her boyfriend, instead watching Jack's retreating back.

The next day, Jack's mother had "suggested" as she put it, that her son introduce his "old friend" to the Torchwood gang. He wasn't happy.

"I can't believe this is happening," Jack turned to the older boy, when he saw his friends walking over, "You really couldn't have chosen a worse time to come here."

"Come on Jack lighten up," the smug smile was back.

"Toshiko Sato, Owen Harper, Gwen Cooper and Ianto Jones," Jack said pointing to each of his friends in turn, "this is John Hart. We go back."

John opened his mouth as if to say something, but Gwen beat him to it, "Jack, can I talk to you a sec?"

"Sure," Jack was happy to get away from John, "What's up?"

"I saw you yesterday. With him," Gwen said nodding towards John. Jack turned to see Tosh talking to him (at least she was acting more like herself now), Owen looking unimpressed, and Ianto pretending to be interested, but his gaze kept flicking back to Jack and Gwen.

"What did you see?" Jack asked carefully turning back to Gwen.

"You kissed him Jack," she answered quickly, "I want to know the truth, how do you know him?"

Jack sighed, "We were kinda together when I was still living in America, he was 16 and I was 14. Then my family moved to Wales two years ago, and I haven't spoken to him since. That's all you need to know."

"You guys finished yet?!" John shouted over to them, as he began walking over, the other three following, "You have nice friends Jack," he looked over at Ianto, "Cute. Bet they're going to miss you."

"What's he talking about Jack?" Owen asked.

"You mean he hasn't told you?" John said faking innocence, "He's going back to America at the end of your school year. Forever."

"Jack? Is that true?" Tosh asked sadly.

Jack nodded. The rest of the group (bar Ianto) all looked stunned, "I was going to tell you, I just needed to find the right time."

"Fuck this," Owen said before walking off, Tosh smiled sadly at Jack before following the other boy.

"You had a chance to tell me Jack," Gwen said sadly before going in the direction the other two had done previously.

"You are unbelievable," Jack said angrily as he turned back to John.

"And yet you still find me strangely attractive," again with the smug smile.

"I'm not 14 anymore," Ianto couldn't help that little stab of jealousy. What had happened when he was 14?

"I'll see you Monday Jack," Ianto said before quickly walking away and not looking back.

"I can't wait for you to leave tomorrow," Jack said bitterly turning his attention back to John.

"In a few weeks you'll be back home. It will be just like old times," John said coolly before turning to leave.

A/N : Thanks to Winnie Conway and CuriosityIsACurse for suggesting that John Hart show up. Opinions?

The next chapter has been written (I've been ill so I've had a lot of spare time), but I'm not really happy with it yet
