What you need to know for this story is that Jack and Ianto are both immortal now. Torchwood is now situated under a college Campus, with a coffee shop as it's front(sorta like the tourist information desk. Jack has four kids, but only two feature in this story. One, Lacey, is mine. She's also a 750 year old half time lady(though she doesn't really act like it) and the other is from the fifty first century. She's blinding_echos creation. She just lets me borrow her now and then.
Lacey woke up with a groan, and a coughing fit. She'd been coughing nonstop since she and Tessa had both managed to come down with a cold. She was once again hating the fact that she was human. She always did when things reminded her of her heritage. She looked over at her nightstand, and smiled though.
That was in the past, when she was looked down and called inferior for being human. She snuggled under the duvet as she looked at the picture of her and her new family. Having a large family for the first time with all the people she loved and loved her, it made her realize being human wasn't so bad.
She was going to fall back asleep when she noticed something on her nightstand that hadn't been there when she'd crawled under the covers the night before. Stuck between her box of tissues and glass of water was a tiny piece of paper. It was just a tiny slip of paper there on her nightstand. At first, she rolled her eyes. Somehow one of the letters from the book dad had read them, and she didn't want to lose them. It was great book. And that they could be real, it made her smile.
As she grabbed the paper, she noticed the writing was different. She also noticed it had her and Tess's name on it. As she read, her fever filled eyes took on a look of wonder and joy. "Mouse Fairies!" she said. She had to share this with Tessa. "They are real!" She threw off the covers and tried to jump out of bed.
Course the cold nearly flattened her as her sense of balance tilted the room slightly, and she gripped the stand to keep from falling over. Once she felt like she could walk, she took off towards her sister's room. Tessa needed to see the note too. However, when the lady got to Tessa's door and burst in, Tessa had her own small note in her hand, and they both exclaimed at the same time with a "guess what!" then giggled as Lacey jumped onto her sister's bed. "Well, come on, show me yours, and I'll show the one I found!"
Tessa shook her head and laugheed, which ended in a coughing fit, "You are such a DORK!" she wheezed. Still she handed over the note. "Can you believe it! Actual mouse fairies!"
"I know! We should go try to find them in the garden. I betcha they're in one of the flower beds."
"No way, I bet they're living in a knot-hole in one of the trees."
Jack leaned in the doorway, a small on his face as he watched his two daughters make a plan on how to find the fairies once they were well enough to go outside. They hadn't noticed him watching them as they read the notes they'd found on their nightstands. He walked away, still smiling before they noticed him. He had several other notes to plant in places they'd find them.
Mouse Fairies might not be real, he'd decided, but the joy on their faces at finding the notes, and the way that his story had actually entertained them the day before, well, it was worth it. He slipped a note under the remote to the TV, and waited for the girls to come downstairs.
