Chapter 21 – Birthday Party

Ianto was having a light lunch with Gethin in the backyard, when Daffyd came out, very excited.

"Tad, we have to leave soon! If we don't leave in 35 minutes, we'll be late for Ally's fourth birthday-party, and Lily and I are giving her a present together!"

Ianto smiled at his son and pressed a quick kiss on Gethin's cheek before answering.

"Alright, Daff, we'll get ready, and we'll leave in thirty, ok?" he answered, thinking how quickly Daffyd was growing up, his eighth birthday was coming up in a few weeks, and he was constantly surprised how like him his son was. Daffyd always wanted everything to be organized and on time – so completely different from Jack, which may be as well, since he was the spitting image of him. Ianto couldn't imagine having a son, that was not only a copy of Jack physically, but also in mentality.

So much had happened in the last four years, since Ally and then Gethin had come into their lives. Today, made him think even more about that day. Four years ago, he had found out that Jack was no longer immortal in a way he didn't even want to thin about, and Gwen had given birth to Ally. So the day was always filled with mixed emotions – so many tears had been shed – both of sadness and of happiness.

He took Gethin's hand in his and walked into the house, following Daffyd. They looked at each other, and Ianto felt so happy. Could life be better than this?

Forty minutes later, Ianto and Daffyd were standing by the door, both slightly annoyed by being late. But they still knew it was something they had to get used to. Jack had trained them well, and Gethin was just the same – always late.

"Come on! Let's go! If you don't come down within thirty seconds, we're leaving without you!" they both shouted up the stairs.

"Ok, ok!" they heard in response, and a few moments later they saw Gethin coming down the stairs slowly.

"We're leaving NOW!" Ianto said, impatiently.

"Ok, ok, then you'll dress Cerys next time," they heard from the top of the stairs, before seeing Jack finally coming down the stairs, with the baby in his arms.

"It wasn't my fault, it was Daddy's", Gethin said with a grin, very much like Jack's.

"Thanks a lot, kid…" Jack said, jokingly.

"It's ok, let's just leave now, ok?" Ianto said giving Jack a quick kiss, smiling at their three-month old daughter, who smiled back.

"Actually, Tad, Dad, there's something I have to tell you," Daffyd said when they got out to the car and Gethin and Cerys were fastened in their seats, "we can take it easy, the party doesn't start for another thirty minutes… I just know how you are…" he smiled.

"He's way too much like you, Ianto! I'm glad we've got Geth as well…" Jack smiled and winked at them, before leaving their driveway.

Later that evening, Ianto lay awake, looking at Jack in his sleep. Their daughter was lying in her cot next to their bed, making little gurgling sounds, but by the sounds of it, she was dozing off. He had just been in to check on the boys, who were both sleeping peacefully, after having completely exerted themselves with Gwen and Rhys' daughters at the birthday party.

As he lay there, he couldn't help but think of what had happened four years earlier. How he had almost lost Jack, but fortunately Emma had been able to stabilize him just in time to deliver a healthy Ally. They had never had to worry about her, she was born two weeks before the actual due-date, but she was a healthy baby-girl who was very much like her mother.

Jack hadn't woken up for a couple of hours though, and those hours had been some of the longest in Ianto's life. But what Jack had told him when he woke up, well made up for every second of worrying – he was going to be a father again! Jack was pregnant, and after a few quick check-ups, Emma had assured them that both the baby and Jack were fine.

Jack had been planning to tell Ianto for a couple of weeks, at the same time as he asked him to move in, but then the kids had been kidnapped, and that had kind of gotten in the way.

And here they were, four years later, with Gethin, who had turned out fine despite what had happened early on in the pregnancy, and Cerys, who was the most beautiful baby-girl in the world, and the most proud big brother in the world, Daffyd. Before falling asleep, Ianto thought, that life couldn't get more perfect.

So, that's it for a while, I think... What did you think? Review, please?
