Gwen, Tosh, Owen and Ianto walked into the hub.
Owen saw to his amazement Jack and Lucy sleeping on the couch.
"Hey guys come look here." He said waving his hand to signal them over.
Jack was sitting up, slightly tilted right. His head back and in his arms, curled up, was Lucy. Both of them fast asleep.
"Should we wake him up?" Owen asked.
"No, let him sleep." Gwen said. "Aww, but they're so cute."
"Yeah, extremely cute." Owen rolled his eyes.
"I'm going to make coffee." Ianto said and everyone turned and went to their stations.
Jack's eyes opened slightly.
"Congratulations Jack, you're now a father by law." Tosh said
"What?!" Jack said, nearly throwing Lucy off his arm.
"Well…we thought since Lucy is ganna live here and you live here…we knighted you her father. Here's the paper work." Gwen said and handed him a piece of paper.
"So I'm her father and you didn't even ask my permission?!" Jack said scanning the page.
"If you really don't want her I'll take her." Gwen said.
"No!" Jack said and held Lucy protectively against his chest.
"So then it's okay?" Tosh asked.
"…yes…" Jack answered.
Owen got off his chair and strolled towards them.
"I need to give her a check-up." He stated.
"Okay, here." Jack gave Owen Lucy. "Don't hurt her." He warned.
Gee, one day and he's already attached, Owen thought.
"I won't hurt her…daddy." Owen smirked as Jack's expression changed from protective to shock at being called 'daddy'.
Owen took Lucy to the autopsy table.
By now Lucy had woken up and was unsure of where she was going.
Owen put her down on the table. He was going to give her a blood test.
Lucy winced but didn't cry when Owen took his blood sample.
Jack watched from the top half of the autopsy room, leaning against the railing.
"Well our little Lucy here is 11 months old. She was born on the 3rd of November last year, which means it will be her birthday next month. She seems to be healthy." Owen informed the rest at dinner that night, after he had gotten the results.
Jake was sitting with Lucy on his lap. He had not let her go since the check-up. He was worried she would get hurt in the main part of the hub and lonely in her room, so he had taken her to his office and had spent the day with her on his lap. He had refused to let anyone hold her at dinner time.
Lucy was busy playing with her little plate of mushed up Chinese food.
"Bye."
Everyone was getting ready to go home.
"Bye, Owen." Tosh said as Owen went through the cog-door.
"Bye" Tosh and Ianto said as they followed Owen out the door.
"Okay, Jack are you going to be okay tonight?" Gwen asked as she picked up her bag and started walking towards the door.
"Yes, we'll be fine. I know all her tricks now. Doesn't like to go to bed early, she prefers the 3rd Harry Potter movie to the 2nd and Sleeping Beauty to Rapunzel, warm milk to cold and she doesn't like peanuts." Jack said.
"Peanuts?" Gwen asked as she walked out the door.
Jack walked down to his living space with Lucy in his arms and they sat at the end of his bed. They were about to watch the 3rd Harry Potter movie for the 5th time!
