Gwen had dealt with the paramedics and as heading down to the archives, stopping dead at the sight of Ianto sobbing into Damien's shoulder as Damien held him in the floor outside the room Jack was giving birth in. She walked quietly towards them as Damien looked up at her.

'What's happened?' She whispered to Damien.

'Jack had a fit and Martha told me to take Ianto out the room.'

'Shit.' She swore softly, her face showing her fear.

Gwen walked to the door and peered in through the small window, Chloe spotted her instantly and spoke to Martha who turned and shouted at her to go into the room. She hesitated for a moment, scared of what she might find when she did, but told herself they needed her and entered the room, closing the door again behind her.

'Gwen, take over from Chloe, I need you to keep your eye on Jack's blood pressure.' She indicated the machine and the cuff attached to his arm and the wires attached to his chest. 'And his heart rate.'

'Whatever you need.' Gwen answered as she took up Chloe's former position.

'Chloe, lets get these babies out. If Jack dies we'll only have seconds to save them.'

They were all unconsciously holding their breaths as Martha made the first incision.

'Sorry Jack.' She said, knowing he couldn't hear as she sliced vertically down his extended belly. 'But you'll heal fast and we need these babies out too quickly to be neat.'

Chloe and Gwen watched in silence as Martha began to deliver the first twin, as she cut the cord small cries filled the room. Chloe held out a thick towel and wrapped the small crying bundle in it, holding it close as she tried to sooth it from it's sudden entry into the world as Martha started to deliver the second twin.

'Martha, his blood pressure is falling rapidly.' Gwen shouted.

'Shit.' Martha pulled the baby from Jack's fast failing body, this time there was no cry as she cut the cord.

Laying the second twin in Chloe's outstretched arms and checked it's airways, cleaning out it's mouth with her little finger and letting out a huge sigh of relief as the baby let out a cry.

Chloe wrapped the baby up and placed it next to it's twin in one of the incubators checking them as Martha turned her attention back to Jack. His breathing was shallow and his blood pressure had plummeted, Martha stroked her hand down his cheek.

'Their safe Jack.' She whispered.

'Martha, do something.' Gwen shrieked at her.

'His body has suffered major trauma and huge blood loss, letting him die and his body reset while he is still unconscious would be the best option for him.' Martha told her gently.

'He hates dying.' Gwen was fuming. 'Stop it.'

Martha took her hand as the heart rate monitor flatlined. 'Too late.'

'Oh god.' Gwen looked at Jack and then the babies before bursting into tears. Although she knew Jack would come back it was still an upsetting sight. 'Get Ianto.'

'I'll get him.' Chloe volunteered.

Martha finished cleaning up Jack's body, she had loosely stitched his wound together as she knew he's start to heal soon as he came back to life, it was taking a little longer than she thought but maybe it was something to do the the anesthetic in his body.

As Ianto walked slowly into the room she covered Jack's body with a sheet, they had ripped his jog bottoms off but he was still wearing his t shirt, which was covered in his own blood. Ianto spotted Jack first, his hand flying to his mouth as he realised Jack had died giving birth to their babies.

A fresh torrent of tears fell from his already red rimmed eyes as he kissed Jack softly on the lips.

'I'm sorry Cariad.' He whispered against them before turning to Martha. 'Why isn't he back yet?'

'The anesthetic I think, he'll be okay.' She rested a hand on his arm. 'Come meet your children.'

Ianto tore his eyes away from Jack as Martha led him over to the incubator. 'Are ... are they okay?'

'Their fine.' Chloe told him. 'Better than fine, they are only in there as it's the only place we have for them to lay.'

Both babies were fast asleep, their hands seemingly having searched each other out as they appeared to be holding one of each others hands.

'For five weeks early and being twins they are both a good size.' Chloe continued. '6 pounds 3 ounces and 6 pounds 5 ounces respectively.'

Ianto gazed into the incubator, noticing the colours of the blankets the babies were wrapped in and looked up at Chloe, Martha and Gwen.

'Really?' He asked, smiling.

'Yes, really.' Martha grinned back.

Ianto pulled Martha into a hug as kissed her soundly on the lips, not hearing the gasp over the chatter of Chloe and Gwen that came from Jack's lips.

'You being unfaithful to me now we have kids.' Jack said weakly.

Ianto rushed over to Jack who was trying to smile but grimacing a little at the pain his body was experiencing as it finished healing, Ianto had tears in his eyes as he kissed Jack softly on the lips.

'Welcome back daddy.' Ianto grinned.

'Shit, I'm a daddy.' Jack managed to laugh softly as the pain began to subside. 'And that makes you a dada.'

'Can you sit up?' Ianto asked him as he watched the pain slip away from Jack's face.

'Yeah.'

Ianto helped him move into a sitting position, wrapped his arms around him and kissed him again tenderly.

'Ready to meet our children?'

Jack went to climb off the bed. 'Stay where you are.' Both Ianto and Martha told him.

Chloe lifted the first twin from the incubator and placed it in Jack's arms, then the second into Ianto's. It took Jack a moment to realise the same thing Ianto had as he looked at them and then smiled widely.

'We got one of each.'

'We did.' Ianto replied as he sat on the edge of the bed with Jack.

'Perfect.' Jack kissed the forehead of the baby in his arms and then the one in Ianto's before kissing Ianto soundly. 'Perfect.'

'So, names?' Gwen interrupted impatiently.

They both grinned at her. 'Caden and Eloise.'

'Beautiful.' Gwen replied as tears fell down her face, of happiness and relief that Jack was now back.

'Maybe we should leave these two alone with their new babies.' Martha suggested. 'They'll want their first feed soon, I'll come back in a little while with their first bottles.'

Both Jack and Ianto barely registered what Martha said as they nodded and she ushered Chloe and Gwen from the room. Damien was still standing outside in the corridor, not wanting to get in the way. His face breaking into a smile as he watched them emerge happy, Chloe took his hand and told him they'd fill him in as they walked out of the archives.

'What have we done?' Jack asked grinning.

'Something you're never doing again.' Ianto told him, looking deeply into Jack's eyes his eyes shining with unshed tears. 'We have two children and I can't let you go though that again.'

'I'm fine ...'

Ianto cut him off. 'Never.'

'We'll see.' Jack replied, gazing at the babies in their arms before kissing Ianto softly again.
