“I was born on the planet of Hevos where I lived with my mum till I was about two, I worked out that in this time, on this planet my birthday is somewhere around the 23rd or 24th May. Obviously I don't remember anything about living there, I was too small.” Teyla paused to take a sip of her drink. “I had a happy childhood, lots of sunshine and my mum and I got on more like friends than parent and child. I had a few friends, even a boyfriend but once mum died I felt like I had no one special left in my life.”
“So you decided to come and find me?” Jack asked.
“Not at first, the thought never entered my head until I ran into John Hart at the funeral. I mentioned something about wishing I had a dad, telling him your name. Your real name.” She glanced at them both but neither of them reacted. “And he told me he knew where you were. After a long talk I finally got him to tell me where, and when you were.”
“Then you stole his vortex manipulator and came here.” Ianto replied.
“The idea formed in my head, the more I thought about it the more I decided it was the right decision but he didn't agree, so yes, I borrowed his wrist strap and came to find you. I really didn't think it would be so easy.”
“What exactly did he tell you about me?” Jack asked.
“Just that you were living on Earth, in the 21st century the last time he saw you and that you had a partner called Ianto, or Eye Candy as he liked to call you.” She replied, smiling at Ianto. “He said you were cute.”
Ianto felt a small blush rise in his cheeks. “I hate that name with a vengeance.”
“So he said.” She chuckled softly. “But he wasn't wrong.”
Jack cleared his throat sensing that Ianto wasn't at all comfortable with the turn the conversation was taking, and neither was he for that matter as it seemed like his sixteen year old daughter was hitting on his husband and changed the subject.
“Are you planning on staying now your here or did you just want to find me, see if I lived up to your mum's stories and then head home?”
“I had no idea, I guess I was playing it by ear.”
“And now?” Ianto asked.
“I like it here, what I've seen of it and I definitely like the idea of being involved with Torchwood.”
“I already told you I don't like the thought of you working there, it's dangerous. If you stay then you go back to school, at least for the time being.” Jack told her sternly.
“Boring.” Teyla replied doing a good impersonation of Jack's own pout. “So when do I get to meet my little brother and sister?”
“We need to talk to them first, let them know about you and adjust.” Ianto told her, resting a hand on Jack's thigh.
“Also we have to think of where you can stay, you can't live with Chloe indefinitely.” Jack added.
“I could get a flat?”
“I don't think so, you're only sixteen!” Jack exclaimed. “And we only have three bedrooms, ours, the one the twins share and Claire's”
“Claire?”
“The kids nanny.”
“I could sleep on the sofa?”
“It is big and comfortable.” Ianto replied, his hand unconsciously rubbing small circles on Jack's leg. “But not exactly practical.”
“Yeah, but we'll have to think about moving soon in any case, the twins will be wanting their own rooms soon and ... well it would be nice to have a little more room.” Jack almost mentioned the baby but for some reason he still wanted to keep that little bit of information from her.
“So, I can sleep on the sofa, for a little while anyhow?”
“I don't see why not.” Jack replied causing Teyla to let out a loud squee in the relative silence of the restaurant and causing a few glares of disapprovement in their direction. “Sorry.” Teyla murmured.
“Okay, but not for a few more days.” Jack told her.
“Thanks Jack ... dad ...”
“Dad is just fine.” Jack told her, giving her a small smile. “Ianto?”
“You can call me Da if you want, might feel a bit odd for a while though.” Ianto told her.
Teyla nodded. “Thank you.” She said smiling widely.
Finishing their meal they drove Teyla back to Chloe's before heading home, Jack was unusually quiet the whole way but Ianto left him to his thoughts until they were inside their home. It was late evening now and both the kids were fast asleep when they checked on them, kissing them both softly on the head they headed to their room as Claire was obviously in bed also.
After stripping off their clothes they climbed into bed, Jack immediately curled around Ianto and rested his head on his chest. Ianto raised his hand and ran his fingers slowly and comfortingly through Jack's hair.
“You're quiet.”
“The longer Teyla's here, the more we find out about her, the more I want to like her and believe she's telling the truth.” Jack replied quietly.
“But?”
“She just seems to good to be true, the perfect teenager.”
“I don't think that exists.” Ianto replied, chuckling softly.
Jack lifted his head and looked into his eyes. “And that's what's causing the nagging doubt at the back of my mind. And her seemingly flirting with you, in front of me, that is wrong on so many levels”
“I don't think she was being serious.”
“I hope not.” Jack replied a little possessively.
“Jack, she's sixteen, I'm old enough to be her father and I'm certainly not going to jeopardize what we have for a fling with a little girl.”
“So you would with someone else?” Jack asked abruptly, his eyes brimming with tears.
“No, of course not Jack, I love you, only you and I would never be unfaithful to you with anyone, let alone Teyla.”
The tears spilt down Jack's cheeks before he could stop them. “I know you wouldn't, I'm sorry.”
“It's okay.” Ianto replied, brushing Jack's tears away with his thumbs before moving one hand to rest on Jack's belly and kissing him softly knowing it was the pregnancy hormones talking. “Try and sleep.”
Jack placed his head back on Ianto's chest and closed his eyes. “Sorry.” He whispered.
