They're 4 years old when they first meet and looking back, they both agree that it was love at first sight. Well, as much as one can fall in love at age 4. It was a year neither of them would ever forget.

Ianto pouted in the back seat. He was super mad at his mommy and his daddy. They had made him move from Wales all the way to stupid America. They were just being mean! Ianto crossed his arms as they pulled up to their new home. Ianto's daddy got out of the car and climbed around to open Ianto's door.

"Come on out buddy."

"No! I don't wanna be here Tad!"

"Ianto…"

"You're mean!"

"Hello there! Are you our new neighbors?"

Ianto looked around his daddy and saw a lady coming over to them. Ianto's mommy smiled.

"Yes. We've just moved here from Wales."

Ianto couldn't help but smile when he saw a little boy walking behind the lady. The nice looking lady smiled at him.

"Hello there. What's your name?"

Ianto blushed and hid behind his mommy. His mommy smiled.

"His name's Ianto. He's a wee bit shy."

"Hi Ianto."

Ianto smiled as the little boy came up next to him. Ianto smiled shyly and waved.

"Hi."

"My name's Jack."

Ianto smiled as Jack took his hand and helped him out of the car.

"I just got a new video game. Do you wanna come over and play with me?"

Ianto turned to his mommy.

"Mommy, may I please go play with Jack?"

"Sure cariad."

Ianto and Jack giggled and ran off towards Jack's house, never letting go of each other's hands.

•••

"Daddy!"

Jack's father looked up and smiled at the sound of his son's voice, already knowing what the little boy wanted. It had been 3 days since Jack and Ianto had met and the 2 of them were already inseparable. Jack's father smiled as his son tugged on his arm.

"Daddy, can Ianto come over and play? Please?"

"What? You guys aren't bored of each other yet?"

"No daddy! Please let him come over!"

"Sure kiddo."

"YAY!"

Jack ran outside as his dad smiled and shook his head.

"Oh boys!"

•••

Ianto yawned from his spot next to Jack on the bed. The boys had spent every waking moment together and after a week of non-stop playing, Ianto was spending the night at Jack's house. The boys were curled up together, sleepily whispering to each other. Jack took Ianto's hand and gently rubbed his knuckles.

"I like you Ianto."

"I like you too Jack."

Jack smiled and blushed before leaning forward and kissing Ianto's lips quickly. Ianto blushed and smiled shyly at Jack.

"Why did you do that?"

"I saw that in a movie once. I think you do it to people you really, really like."

"Oh."

Ianto smiled and leaned forward, mimicking Jack's kiss. Jack's smile widened.

"Thank you Ianto."

Ianto yawned and nestled under the covers sleepily. Jack curled up next to him and kissed his cheek, blushing.

"Ianto?"

"Yes Jack?"

"Mommy told me that sometimes when people are bigger, they get married to the person they love the most. Ianto, when we're big, do you wanna be married to me?"

Ianto smiled and shut his eyes, leaning his head against Jack's.

"Yes Jack. I want to be married to you."

Jack smiled and hugged Ianto close.

"I love you Ianto."

"I love you too Jack."

"Goodnight."

"Goodnight."
