Jack walked inside for a drink, the children all scrambling with glee outside. Big and small were enjoying themselves and as Jack walked to the kitchenette he glanced over at the large bed they still used in the big bay window of the downstairs living area.

Ianto was on there, curled around Hawk like a mama cat around it's kitten, Hawk snuggled in with little hands clutching at Ianto's shirt as they lay quietly, snoozing. They looked adorable. Jack stood for a moment just drinking them in and then he pulled out his phone for a few snaps. Too good not to, this was an image he wanted to remember, his beautiful husband and their baby boy.

A hand on his back made him jump and he turned to find Ton beside him, his face full of wonder as he looked at the scene on the bed. Hawk was naked bar his nappy and Ianto wore an open white linen shirt and dark jeans, the starkness of their skin apparent with the little black hands in the fabric, the little face buried in Ianto's white fuzzy chest where the shirt was open. Little guy had sought his heartbeat, wanted skin and Ianto had obliged without a second thought.

"Wow" Ton whispered "Tadda and Hawk look like angels or something."

"Yeah" Jack replied, "I think maybe they are, don't you?"

"We are so lucky Dadda" Ton smiled as he toed off his shoes and approached the bed, making it dip slightly as he clambered on and Ianto grunted not opening his eyes as the arm around Hawk lifted to allow a body in for a clutch.

Ton kissed his Taddy's face and Ianto grunted, pulling him in so Hawk was between them and Ianto muttered softly "Not too close. Don't smother him love."

"I love you Tadda" Ton whispered as he gently reached out to stroke Ianto's face and Jack smiled as he settled once more.

"My Tonny Monster" Ianto sighed softly "Lovely. Finished playing?"

"Tired too" Ton replied "Me chest felt full. I needed to find you to it could be light again."

Ianto hummed and his hand started rubbing Tons' back gently as the boy settled into the pillows and Jack stood watching with affection. Owen appeared in the doorway and took in the scene.

"Ton said his chest was full" Jack said as they stepped outside "His last test was …"

"We were talking about parents. The kids were sad Hawk lost his and were talking about it. He doesn't mean his heart was having a problem, his last check-up showed the murmur hadn't advanced. No. He needed Ianto. I think he means heavy as in sad." Owen assured Jack who nodded and looked back at them on the bed, then he walked in and gently pulled Hawk from the cuddle, letting Ton have his Taddy's arms.

Ianto opened his eyes and looked up, pouting for a kiss and then settled again, not the least bit annoyed that his baby was just pinched. It's Jack after all.

Ton felt lighter as he laid his head in his Taddy's chest and listened to the heartbeat of a good man.
