A/N: Hey guys! So I wrote this a long time ago, but was nervous about publishing it and then I forgot about it. But I remember now! This a Janto slash fic, so if you don't like, don't read. I worked hard on this and it isn't quite finished yet, but I have the first few chapters done. I'm almost done with the sex scene! Let me know what you think so far! Sorry for the bad title! The sex scene will probably happen in chapter 3 or 4. Please review!
Warning: This is a slash fic, and I have rated it M just because it contains some sexual content and mild language

Summary: After getting injured, and being taken care off by Ianto, Jack realizes his true feelings for Ianto and their relationship progresses from there.
Jack Harkness finally realizes his feelings
Captain Jack Harkness was sitting at his desk after a long day of weevil hunting. The team had managed to catch one, but not before it got in a good swipe across Jack's chest leaving a deep but not fatal gash. Jack had sent everyone home as soon as they got back to the hub, except for Ianto who always stayed very late. Taking a deep breath trying to get his thoughts off of Ianto, Jack began removing his braces and outer shirt which was stained with blood. As he finished carefully unbuttoning his shirt, Ianto walked in.
"Evening, sir. How did the hunt go?" Ianto asks, not yet noticing Jack's injury.
"We caught him, but…" Jack says while looking down at his blood soaked shirts.
"Oh dear lord!" Ianto exclaims as he moves to stand next to Jack.
"It's nothing, Ianto. I'll be fine." Jack says, but Ianto can hear the pain in his voice, and see the lack of smirk that is usually on his face.
"Let me help you get patched up, sir. I insist. Wait here" Ianto says while rushing out of the room to get medical supplies.
How can he possible be this kind to me? I hardly ever give him the time of day unless I'm making jokes or flirting with him. Perhaps I should let him know how I really feel, that I… Jack's inner thoughts were cut off by Ianto's voice filling the room.
"Sir? Sir, are you okay? Captain? JACK" Ianto says.
"Hmm? Oh sorry" Jack says.
Ianto sets his supplies down and carefully removed Jack's outer shirt. "I have to take off this other shirt, but it might hurt a little bit"
Jack just nodded in agreement, still caught up in his thoughts. Ianto carefully peeled the shirt off of Jack's bloody chest and discarded it in the trash. Ianto then proceeded to carefully wash all of the blood away from the cut on Jack's chest. Once he finished wiping the blood off, Ianto took a step back and noticed the little frown that formed on Jack's mouth at the loss of closeness between them.
"It's actually not that bad. You've already started to heal, sir." Ianto informed Jack, and then he wrapped the wound in gauze and bandaged it up.
"There you go, sir. I'm all done now." Ianto said. "Sir, are you alright?" Ianto asks but begins to walk away when he once again receives no answer.
"Ianto" Jack calls out. "Yes?" Ianto says as he turns around to face Jack.
"I'm sorry" Jack says
"For what?"
"For everything. I never give you the time of day, but you're always there for me and I'm sorry for treating you like shit all of the time"
"Oh. It's okay, I'll always be here for you. Anytime you need me." Ianto says as he moves closer to Jack again.
"I love you, Ianto Jones. It may not seem like it, but I truly do. My biggest regret in all my life is not telling you sooner, and kissing you the first time we met, for now I fear I may too late." Jack confesses, glancing at Ianto.
"Really? It's not too late, sir. I...I love you too. With all my heart, and I really like that coat." Ianto says. Jack stands up and walks toward Ianto. He reaches Ianto in a few short strides, and wraps an arm around his waist, pulling Ianto close. Ianto hesitantly puts his hands on Jack's shoulders as Jack pulls him in for a bruising kiss.
