Ianto's mum silently looked between him and Jack as if she couldn't quite believe what he had said.

'Mam, did you hear what I said?'

'You are going to try and adopt?'

'That's right.' Jack answered, not sure he liked the look on her face.

'Is that wise?'

'What do you mean by that?' Ianto tone a little pissed.

'I mean with your jobs, you both work strange hours doing who knows what and I know it's dangerous.'

Ianto dad nodded in agreement.

'We'd have to hire a nanny.' Ianto told her.

'Well, she'd have to be full time, on call whenever you needed her.'

'We know.' Jack replied.

'So, she'd have to be a live in nanny, where are you going to put her, in the linen cupboard?' She replied a little sarcastically.

'Mam.' Ianto sighed. 'We're moving, just found a lovely detached three bedroom house.'

'You can afford this?' She asked.

'Yes, between us it's covered.' Ianto answered.

'So, are you looking to adopt a baby or older child?'

As she spoke the words she both Jack and Ianto's faces brighten up as broad smiles crossed them and their hands found each other.

'Babies.' Jack said grinning.

'Babies?' Ianto's dad spluttered. 'As in more than one?'

'Well we want to have more than one ... eventually.' Ianto told them.

'You're really sure you're ready for this love? I know Jack older, but you're only 25, still young and you've only been married five minutes.'

'More than ready mam, I love Jack and I want a family with him.'

Ianto kept his smile on his face, but inside he was feeling sad as he said those words, he wished once more that he could tell his mum the truth, that the babies really would be his and Jack, that Jack was pregnant and carrying their grandchildren, just like his sister.

Ianto's mum finally smiled. 'Okay, then if your both happy with this decision, then so am I.'

'You know you love having grandchildren running about the place.' Ianto's dad told her.

'Yes I do, and they shall be treated exactly the same as any other grandchild.'

'Thanks mam.' Ianto said as he stood up. 'I'll be back in a minute.'

Only Jack noticed the look on his face had changed to one of sadness as the sound of Ianto's foot steps ran up the stairs and not towards the bathroom where Jack assumed he was going.

Ianto's mum and dad went off to the kitchen to make tea, Jack slipped up the stairs to find Ianto, he was sat in his old room on his bed not looking at all happy. Jack sat beside him.

'I want them to know they are their grandchildren, just like my sisters baby.' He said sadly.

'Can we risk it, we know they don't like your job, how exactly can we explain how I can have children and am pregnant to them without telling them everything?'

'They'd never tell anyone.'

'I think I know your parents pretty well now and I'd agree with that, but it's a lot for them to take in.'

'Maybe they deserve to know the truth, they love you like a son Jack.'

'We need to think about this more, then decide whether or not we are going to tell them, but if we do it's only, them, not your brothers and sister.'

'Yep, I agree with that, for now anyway.'

'Right, lets get back downstairs before your mum thinks I've got hungry again.' Jack grinned.

Ianto smiled at the memory Jack was referring to.

'Kiss first?' Ianto said as he turned slightly so he could press his lips to Jack's.

Jack parted his lips willingly as Ianto pressed harder to deepen the kiss allowing Ianto's tongue access to his mouth as they kissed for a few minutes, Jack moaned in disappointment as Ianto's mouth left his but it turned into a sigh of pleasure as Ianto kissed him in just the right spot on his neck. Before he knew it Ianto was sucking on the spot, brushing his teeth over the skin and Jack realised what he was up to.

Ianto jumped up from his bed and Jack's arms, grinned and rushed out the room leaving Jack on the bed stunned, knowing he was now sporting a very large love bite on his neck. He laughed to himself, Ianto had got his revenge at last.

Jack followed Ianto down the stairs a few moments later, he found the other three in the kitchen drinking mugs of tea and was handed one as soon as he walked through the door. They spent the rest of the afternoon talking about the house they were buying and what they needed to do to it before they moved it.

Ianto's mum thought it was a little premature to be decorating one room as a nursery before they had even looked into adopting, what if they were turned down? But she kept this to herself, not wanting to upset them. She has spotted the purple mark on Jack's neck as soon as he had appeared in the kitchen and smiled to herself, but a couple of hours later she could have sworn it had faded considerably, but she dismissed it from her mind.

She wondered if they had considered what children to to your love life, then put the thought out of her mind as she stiffled a giggle, that was something she really didn't want to think about. She insisted they stayed for dinner, it was only stew and freshly baked bread but they devoured it like they hadn't eaten for a week.

After dinner they helped her clean up then headed home, Ianto's mum had offered them a bed for the night but they declined, they both wanted to go back to the hub first as they wanted to check on the kitties, Chloe had ordered the lamps and had been lacing their food with vitamin D and they just wanted to see if they were improving yet. They knew it was early days, but worth checking.

When they reached the hub everyone had gone, they found a note on Jack's desk saying that all the inhabitants had been fed and a folder with results on the kitties, with a post it attached saying that there was no improvement yet, but that was to be expected and the sun lamps would arrive in a couple of days, to Chloe's flat.

Jack checked the other messages on his desk, a couple seemed quite urgent and he also had some emails that needed to be replied to. Ianto said he'd go and see the kitties for himself and then go out and get something nice for supper.

Jack pecked him on the lips and then sat down at his desk with a sigh, picked up the phone and dialed the first number. Ianto went to the kitties cell, they didn't look well, that was for sure. He hoped it would be possible to take them home now and then once they got the house, he'd rather have a dog but they would do as part time pets for now.

After going into the cell and playing and petting them for a while he checked up on Janet, who was the same as ever and then left the cells and went back to the main hub, glancing up at Jack's office he could see Jack was still one the phone, he slipped his coat on, waved to Jack and indicated he was going out and left through the cog door.

Ianto walked the short distance to the 24 hour supermarket and looked for something delicious and naughty to have for supper, he knew he'd found it when he spotted the triple layer chocolate cake. He slipped it into his basket with a bottle of red wine and made for the checkout.

Jack had finished his phone calls and was now starting on his emails, he knew the faster he got them done the faster they could get home. He glanced up at the clock, Ianto had been gone more than half an hour, hopefully he would be back by the time Jack had finished.

Ianto paid for his goods and left the shop, as he started to walk across the car park in the direction of the exit he heard the screeching of a car going much to fast. He turned around and spotted the car hurtling through the car park, even though it was getting late there were still quite a lot of people about.

Then he spotted her, the elderly lady who was half way across the road in the car park, trying to pick up a back she had dropped as the car came towards her. Ianto put the carrier bag he was holding on the floor and sprinted towards her.

He grabbed the bag she had dropped from the floor yelling at her to get out the road as everything seemed to be happening in slow motion, as he went to follow her the car sped towards him, catching his leg. Ianto fell to the ground, screaming in agony before his head hit the hard surface with a resounding crack and everything went black.

Jack was beginning to get worried now, Ianto had been gone over an hour. He grabbed his coat and headed up and out via the invisible lift and across the Plass towards the supermarket where he knew Ianto had been planning to go.

As he neared he he spotted the ambulance speeding away with sirens blaring and as he picked up his pace a feeling of dread overcame him. Spotting the police car he ran over to it, interupting the young officer.

He flashed his I.D. 'Torchwood, what happened.'

'I don't really think this is a Torchwood matter Sir.' The young officer replied politely.

'I'll decide that, what happened.'

'Young man saved that lady.' He pointed over to where the elderly lady was standing with one of his colleagues. 'From a speeding car, he wasn't so lucky, it clipped his leg and when he fell he hit his head.'

'Is he okay?'

'Knocked himself unconscious, that was him that just went off in the ambulance.'

'His name?' It was all Jack could do to keep his calm.'

'A Mr Ianto Jones. His driving licence said.'

'Thanks' Jack yelled over his shoulder as he ran back to the hub to collect the SUV, screeching out of the parking space and towards the hospital.

Parking haphazardly he ran into the A&E department and straight to the desk.

'Ianto Jones, just been bought in by ambulance, where is he?' Jack asked.

'He's with the doctor's no one can see him yet.' Was the polite reply.

'Like hell they can't.' Jack tried not to yell, getting out his Torchwood I.D. again. 'Where is he?'

'Please, calm down Sir, I'll just get a nurse to take you through.'

Jack paced up and down till a nurse appeared at his side a few minutes later and led him towards the room Ianto was in, Ianto was lying on the hospital bed with only a sheet covering him, his cut off clothes on the chair beside him.

'Is he going to be okay?' Jack asked, his voice barely audible as the sight of his lover.

'And you are?'

'His partner, his legal partner.' Jack swallowed back the tears threatening as he looked at Ianto laying there.

'He's breathing on his own but hasn't woken since he fell and hit his head. We don't think his leg is broken but he'll be going up for an x ray soon as they can fit him in to check both his leg and head injuries.'

'When will he wake up?'

'Could be hours, could be days.'

'Can you leave us alone?'

The nurse looked at the doctor. 'Just for a few minutes.' He told Jack.

Jack waited till they had left the room then lent over and kissed Ianto softly on the lips, then pulled a chair up next to it. He sat down and took Ianto's hand in his and whispered in his ear.

'You wake up soon, you hear me? I need you, the babies need you. Please?'

Jack lay his lead on Ianto's shoulder and let the tears fall.

*sigh*

In every fic I read; sooner or later, Ianto gets hurt.

I would stop reading fic for this reason, but a lot of them have gotten me addicted. Yours included.

Theres also the fact that I'm marvelling at how I can read fic without the screen being right up at my face now... (just got glasses)
