Ianto sighed as he re-read the letter from his family. He knew that they did not approve of his 'lifestyle' but to actually put it in writing made his heart break even more.

He jerked back from his seat as a large hand reached in front of him, holding a take-away cup.

"It's hot cocoa. Their coffee does taste like shite. So girlfriend dump you also?"

"Um, thanks. No, my family does not approve of my life." Ianto forced a smile on his face as he recognized the man he had brought cocoa to recently.

"Damn. I hate when that happens. I guess you might need something stronger. I know this cute little pub down the road a bit. Let me buy you a drink and you can tell me all about your life." Jack held out his hand towards Ianto who grabbed it tightly.

"I'd like that if you let me buy dinner and you can tell me all about your life."

"It's a date!"
