I watched the Torchwood team from my aerial view as usual, Jack and Ianto were talking in hushed voices on the couch; probably discussing their plans for the evening. Boy the things I'd seen that pair do! They were laughing and chatting away like a proper couple, I looked around for Gwen. I found her quickly, she was sat at her desk crying softly to herself, I had no idea why, I looked to see if Ianto and Jack had noticed, but it seamed that they hadn't. I figured that Gwen needed a little TLC so I cawed loudly over her head to get every one's attention. Gwen jumped up terrified, I felt guilty, I hadn't meant to scare her.
"Gwen feed Myfanwy please," Jack didn't even look up, he was too absorbed in whatever Ianto was telling him, "Oh and then you can go home if you like, we're going out" I didn't understand what Jack was saying, I never do but I heard Gwen, and my name so I guessed that meant food.
Ianto helped Jack into his coat and they left without so much as a backward glance, you know at times I really don't like Jack, he's the one that tricked me into eating that horrible tasting metal woman, I like Ianto though he gives me chocolate!
Gwen waited until they were gone before breaking down and crying properly, then I recognised the look in her eyes, she had the look of loss, a kind of loss that I knew all too well.
I cast my mind back to 3 weeks ago when Gwen had come bounding into The Hub hardly able to contain her excitement,
"Jack, Ianto I'm pregnant!!" She had cried, I soon gathered what that human phrase meant, Gwen was carrying young.
But now it seamed she had lost it, a feeling like no other, a feeling I know all too well. My own young had all been fine and strong, all except one, my little fighter, everyone had said he'd never make it and they were right. Then when I came here, the rest still needed me, but I couldn't get back, try as I might, now it was my turn to weep quietly, with the memories came the pain.
A practically loud cry from Gwen brought my thoughts back to her, it was unfair for her to lose her baby especially so soon after those other humans that I wasn't allowed to eat died. I really felt sorry for her, and for once I didn't feel like eating her. After all in a way she was a lost mother just like myself. I decided that I wasn't hungry and I continued circling The Hub and I waited until I was sure Gwen had left before breaking down and crying properly.
Hope you enjoyed that, it's my first fan fiction so feed back of any kind will be greatly appreciated.
