My boy Ianto
By Gwento-addict
A/N: UN beta version and this is taken from I film I watched in history called My Boy Jack, if you ever have a chance to watch it, it is fab, and has Daniel Radcliffe in it to!!! Enjoy!!
August 1914 Wales
'Ianto, Ianto where are you your going to be late?' His mother asked.
'Gwen calm down, he will be ready' Ianto's father Jack said.
Ianto looked up in the mirror he had his smartest suit on, today Lord Kitchener's recruitment drive reached Cardiff, and Ianto was eager to sign up. Ianto's father Jack was captain of the RAF royal battalion serving for king and country. This is what Jack wanted Ianto to do.
Ianto was seventeen, edging nearer to his eighteenth birthday. Ianto was hoping to go over the top before then. Any moment longer and he would go crazy. Even if he only arrived in France it would have been satisfactory. Ianto's only worry would be if in the trenches they would supply any kind of fresh coffee that was drinkable, Ianto did enjoy his coffee mostly it was also with a cigarette that he and his father kept secret from his mum.
Gwen was awfully worried if Ianto would ever make it back home or would all of Jacks propaganda about the war be all for nothing. Jack was very proud of his son. Ianto was an excellent fighter, even if. Jack was slightly disappointed that Ianto wasn't so keen on Joining the RAF. But Jack respected his son's option to fight in France and fight to the death in no man's land.
'Ianto you know that I love you dearly don't you?' Gwen asked, 'yes mother I love you with all my heart, and when I go over the top I will think of you and if I come back, I will give you a German shell just to show my love for you' Ianto said.
'Son? It is time to disembark, your squadron will be waiting for you' Jack said.
'Thank you father' Ianto replied.'I am so proud of you son, long live the king, and stay safe'
As they watched there son go to war both of them were worried news had just come in that many soldiers had been killed on the first day. Jack felt responsible if his son did die.
Sorry if this has bad grammar, punctuation ECT!! I did it on my blackberry.
I'll try and get my beta reader to look at it!
