Ianto smiled and led him out of the pub and into the street. It had gotten colder, and there was the definite smell of rain in the air, but it seemed to have fallen and stopped for that moment. Ianto didn't know whether he was grateful for that, or disappointed, honestly. Ever since that day in the rain he'd... Well, he'd appreciated it a lot more than he had previously. It was still something of a nuisance, though, considering how often it happened.
The drive back was short and pleasant. Ianto mused on feeding Myfanwy, explaining how they sometimes let her out into the countryside to terrorize the sheep and stretch her wings, and how they'd created the special 'barbecue' sauce to indicate what she could and couldn't eat, as a way of training her not to eat the computers or, well, Torchwood members in general. He might have been babbling a little, but it was because he was trying not to focus on the fact that they were going to be alone together. After their date. And how that usually meant, well... It meant that something might happen.
It wasn't until Ianto was unlocking his door to the house that he really paused, his brain glitching a bit, stuck halfway between extremely excited and extremely nervous about all of this. "Ehm," he said, "do... Do you want to come in for a bit, then?" he asked, blushing. "Before... Before you have to go back, that is..."
