A/N : Because the last chapter was so short I wanted to post this one as soon as. Enjoy :)

Ianto really had no idea where he and Jack would be going on this date. That fact was truly unhelpful when he was rooting through his wardrobe for something to wear. After nearly half hour of changing outfit Ianto had finally decided, however before he managed to finish getting dressed there was a loud knock on the door. He checked his watch, 6:50pm, it couldn't be Jack. Ianto pulled up his black trousers before answering the door.

"You're early," Ianto stated as he looked the man up and down. Black trousers, dark blue shirt; hot.

"Please say that's what you're wearing tonight," Jack said grinning, looking at the bare chest in front of him. Ianto was clearly not impressed, even Jack picked up on that, "So you nearly ready?"

"I just need to finish getting dressed. Come in," Ianto moved to let Jack pass him. The American sat on the couch and watched Ianto's retreating arse in appreciation. Once the man had disappeared he began looking around the small living area. There was nothing in the room that would show anyone lived here, it was unbelievably tidy and there were no personal belongings anywhere to be seen.

"So where are we going?" Ianto asked as he appeared from out his bedroom as he was adjusting his cufflinks on his deep red shirt.

"You'll see," Jack grinned.

The short walk to their destination was fairly quiet, both men quite unsure of what to say to the other. That changed however when they reached the restaurant.

"Jack I can't afford this place," Ianto said quietly after they'd been seated and ordered.

"It's a date Ianto, I'm paying."

"How can you afford it?"

"My dad left me money when he died. I wasn't able to get it until I was eighteen though. I can't say I was any good at holding down a job in America."

"See what I don't get is – Thanks," Ianto said as his and Jack's meals were placed in front of them, "I don't get why you chose now to come back."

"Well, my latest relationship ended a few months ago and I lost my job a little while after that. But all that matters is I'm here now," Ianto was finding it hard to read Jack now. It upset him to think he once knew this man better than anyone, but now he felt like he knew nothing.

"We stopped talking, what? Three years ago? And you just swan back in, kiss me and ask me on a date," Ianto said incredulously.

"Yeah. Okay I'll admit it; I didn't really handle that in the best way. But I saw you and… and I needed to kiss you."

Both men stayed silent for a long time while they continued eating, until Ianto broke the silence, "I'm really glad you're back, Jack."

Jack tried to stop himself grinning, "So am I."

Once the men had finished their meal and Jack had paid the - very expensive – bill, they went for a walk and ended up walking across Roald Dahl Plass and stopping to look out over the bay. It was a clear night and the view was picturesque.

"Ianto?" Jack's voice was barely audible.

"Yeah?" Ianto said still looking out over the bay.

Jack paused, "It doesn't matter."

"What is it Jack?" Ianto asked softly as he finally turned to face the other man. Jack cupped the Welshman's face in his hands and drew him closer. He pressed his lips softly against Ianto's. When he felt Jack's tongue try to enter his mouth, Ianto pushed the man back, "Don't."

"Oh come on Ianto," Jack said stepping closer to his former boyfriend.

"I can't go back to how things were! That was 10 years ago!" Ianto shouted causing Jack to back away from him again.

"What's stopping you Ianto?! Why can't you give us a try?!"

"We're different people now! It won't work!"

"Things haven't changed that much, you still don't trust me!"

"I do!"

"No you don't! You think I'm going to do something to hurt you!"

"I don't want to get hurt. Is that so bad?" Ianto said weakly

"Yes it is. This stupid fear is getting in the way of you being happy. There's still something between us Ianto, you can't say you don't feel it too."

"Why did we stop talking? If we really loved each other surely we would have found a way to stay together."

"I came back here. I came back for you," Ianto noticed that Jack had avoided mentioning anything about love, he just wasn't sure why.

"Why's it so easy for you to go back to how things were?"

"When my last relationship ended I thought about what went wrong, then I realised, I couldn't stop comparing him to you. I thought instead of repeating the same mistake again, I'd come here, to see you. Owen said you weren't seeing anyone else so I thought 'why not?'. Then, when I saw you again I had to do something, I can't say I really thought it through," Ianto appeared to be staring at him in awe, "I asked you on this date because I wanted to see whether I could still love you after being away for so long."

"And what did you find out?"

"I think I'm still in love with you Ianto Jones."
