Sulu really didn't need to tug Ianto that hard to send him following after him to the couch. Ianto was pretty much floundering, there, and was immensely grateful that Sulu had recognized that and reached out to save him from himself yet again. Ianto let out a breath, willing some of the nervous tension out of him, and tried to do as Sulu instructed and just relax.
He shook his head, smiling sheepishly. "No, it's... It's alright. I. I don't have to make coffee all the time. It's just kind of my default," he explained, gripping Sulu's hand back. "I. Relaxing with you would be good. I mean. I want to." If he could relax in that moment, yikes. He seemed to be responding well to Sulu patiently and gently taking charge of the situation, though, so. Maybe more of that could happen?
His knees knocked against the edge of the sofa, and instinctively, he sat down, Sulu's hand still in his, tugging the other man gently down with him despite the fact that it was Sulu who'd led them there in the first place. "Sorry," he apologized, "I. This is my first time bringing a date home like this in a long time. I. I guess whatever level of suave I used to have is pretty much zero, at the moment," he said, with a little smile.
