Jack was driving along the motorway, and he turned the radio up and started singing along to the radio, and wasn't really paying attention. All that he was thinking about was his gorgeous husband and two wonderful boys. He looked at his watch, '17:06', he thought to himself that it wouldn't be long till he was home, and Jack smiled at this. Jack was not watching the road too carefully, Ianto normally pointed this out if he was in the car. "I can be you hero baby, I can kiss away the pain, I will stand by you forever. You can take my breath away." Jack sang when suddenly he lost control of the wheel and crashed into the car in front.
The fire brigade, police and paramedics arrived, Jack was unconscious and had to be cut out of the mangled car which was around the road divider and the other car. The driver of the other car was being questioned by the police whilst Jack was being rushed to hospital with severe head injuries.
In a lovely Welsh home Ianto was playing with his kids, Scott and Gareth when the phone rang. Ianto answered. "Hello, Ianto Jones speaking."
"Hi Mr Jones, I'm a doctor at St Helens Hospital, I'm calling because your partner Jack Harkness has been in a fatal car accident."
Ianto was shocked and at first couldn't speak but then found words.
"Oh…umm…is he ok?" Ianto stuttered with worry.
"Not really Mr Jones, all I can say is that he is stable but he is unconscious…"
"I'm on my way." Ianto said then hung up the phone. He got the boys into the car and drove to the hospital, quickly but carefully.
"Daddy, where are we going?" Dexter asked.
"Umm, the hospital, Daddy Jack has been in an accident so we have to go and see if he's ok." Ianto explained to his son. Dexter and Gareth sat quietly in the back. It was hard as Dexter was six but Gareth was only three. Ianto got to the hospital and parked the car, lifting the boys out of the car, and carried Gareth and held Dexter's hand as he walked into the hospital. Ianto walked to the reception desk. "Hello I'm looking for Jack Harkness, I'm his husband."
"He is in room 307." The receptionist said, "up the stairs and turn right."
"Thank you." Ianto said and took the steps two at a time and found the room. Ianto took a deep breath and pushed the door open and walked in. Jack was lying on the bed surrounded by machines and monitors. Ianto felt a tear run down his cheek at the sight.
"Is he sleeping?" Dexter asked.
"Yes." Was all Ianto could say as he sat Gareth and Dexter on the chair. Ianto walked over to Jack and held his hand - it was tone cold. More tears streamed down Ianto's cheeks, he leaned over an kissed Jack's head and whispered. "I love you," in Jack's ear. Ianto wondered if he could hear him, probably not he thought.
"I love you too, Ianto." Came a faint voice.
