“What?” Ianto asked quietly, not sure he had heard right.
“I was in this pub with some mates out by the Beacon Beacons earlier and there was a woman in there with this little girl, no one else seemed to be taking any notice of them but there was something about the girl that look somehow familiar.”
“And?”
“Well I know I haven't seen her since, well at all but I realised she looked like the little girl on the news reports.”
“So, what then?” Ianto asked, keeping him standing on the doorstep as Claire had made herself scarce.
“I went and well, flirted a little with the woman, acted like I was interested her to see if I was right but I came to the conclusion it can't have been them.” George told him. “Because she called the little girl Susan. But since I got home I can't get them out of my head, the more I think about it the more I'm positive it's your daughter.”
“The woman who took her is calling her Susan, that's something we haven't made public.” Ianto told him, trying his best to keep his cool with his cousin. “You have to tell me where the pub is.”
“How do you know, about the woman calling her Susan?” George frowned.
“Hard to explain, look, where is it?” Ianto demanded, raising his voice.
George named a village not far from where the car had been dumped in the lake, a look of fear crossing his face as he saw Jack coming down the stairs.
“Shit” George muttered under his breath as Ianto turned and saw Jack for himself.
“Get out of my house you bastard.” Jack yelled at George. “I don't care what you're here for, you're not welcome, ever.”
“Jack, he thinks he's seen Eloise.” Ianto said, trying to calm him.
Jack came to a stop, fist clenched by his side and a look of pure hate still on his face as he processed what Ianto had just said, not changing his demeanour or expression as he finally spoke.
“Where?” He demanded.
George repeated what he had told Ianto and Jack's expression never relaxed, he was still fuming with Ianto's cousin for what he had done to him all those years ago, even though he knew it must have taken courage for him to come straight to them and not just go to the police.
“Thank you George.” Jack told him, his voice polite but full of hate. “Well, pass the information onto the police.”
“You okay?” George frowned.
Ianto glanced as Jack and realised he was pressing his hand to his belly again.
“He'll be fine, thanks George, it's much appreciated but I think you should go.” Ianto told him a lot more calmly that he felt.
“It's okay, I understand totally how you feel about me.”
Without another word George left the house and ran down the drive to his car, Ianto shut the door firmly and turned to Jack.
“Fucking piece of shit.” Jack spat. “Why didn't he just go to the police? Why come here, he knows what we think of him?”
“I don't know Jack, maybe he's trying to make amends somehow.” Ianto shrugged.
“Would you accept his apology? Forgive him for what he did?” Jack frowned.
“Never.” Ianto replied resolutely.
“Good, he's never going to get my forgiveness for what he did to you. He'll never be welcome in this house.” Jack groaned loudly and clutched his stomach again.
“Bed, now.” Ianto told Jack, taking his arm and steering him back up the stairs.
“We have to call Andy.” Jack told him.
“I will call Andy, you need to rest. Don't try and tell me you are fine, you're clutching your stomach again.”
“It's hurting a little.” Jack admitted.
Ianto pulled the duvet down and held it as Jack got back into bed.
“I will call Andy now, then I will come to bed and tell you what he said, okay?”
Jack nodded and snuggled back under the duvet, determined not to sleep until Ianto came back. After calling Andy as giving him the information George had told them Ianto grabbed a quick shower and then sipped into bed with Jack, pulling him into his arms and holding him close.
“Andy said that he would focus their search around the Brecon Beacons tomorrow, but that we shouldn't get our hopes up to much. He said they might not even be living near there, just using the pub to eat but they will search the whole area with a fine tooth comb.”
“We should be out there now, knocking on doors.”
“No, you need to to as your told and rest, no risking the life of this baby.” Ianto told him sternly, rubbing his hand comfortingly over Jack's stomach.
“I know, it's just ...”
“I know, I want her back soon too.” Ianto's voice dropped to a whisper. “I'm sorry I ever suggested we shouldn't have this baby.”
“I know you never meant it, no more apologising.” Jack kissed Ianto tenderly on the lips before yawning softly. “We'll call Andy first in the morning and see if he has any news.”
“Yes, I will.” Ianto told him as Jack closed his eyes and Ianto held him even tighter.
Ianto left Jack sleeping the next morning, finding Claire and Caden in the kitchen having breakfast he joined them, refusing anything but coffee. He hadn't slept well, his dreams full of confusing images of George as what he had done to him when he found out about him being with Jack and of Eloise calling out to him to come and get him, that she missed him and her daddy.
“You okay?” Claire asked, passing him a mug of coffee.
“Not really, no” Ianto replied, but not saying anymore and nodding towards his son in way of explanation.
“Caden, how about you show dada what a big boy you are and show him you can dressed all by yourself?” Claire suggested.
“I am a big boy!” Caden stated, hopping off the chair he was sitting on and running up to his bedroom.
“It was him, last night, he's upset you hasn't he?” Claire asked gently.
“George, he's my cousin and he thought it a good idea to 'gay bash' me when he found out I was with Jack, nasty texts at first then he and two mates took it upon themselves to try and beat me up.”
“Nice cousin you have there.” Claire said, clearly shocked.
“Yeah, we all ended up under arrest but Jack ... well, you know Jack.” Ianto told her, giving her a small smile.
“So he came here to tell you he thought he had seen Eloise? Maybe he really does regret what he did back then?”
“Maybe, but I don't know if I can ever forgive him. I know Jack never will either”
“You passed the information onto the police?”
“Yep. Andy's confining the search to that area today, damn I want her home!” Ianto slammed his fist down on the kitchen table.
Claire slid off her seat and moved to him, wrapping her arms around him and hugging him tight.
“She'll be home soon, I know she will.” Claire told him soothingly as Jack appeared at the kitchen door.
Jack moved across the room, Claire released Ianto from her embrace and Jack took her place, holding his lover tight as Claire slipped from the room giving them some privacy.
