"Doctor?"

"Jack, it worked."

"Yeah, it did work. Ianto is no longer old."

"Yep. He's no longer old."

Both Jack and the Doctor looked at the small toddler trying to stand on his chubby legs. Ianto didn't quite make it and fell backwards on the floor. His thumb popped back into his mouth as tears began to fill up his eyes.

"Don't cry, Ianto. Jack is here. Don't cry." Jack leaned over and pulled Ianto into his arms. Tiny little arms curled around Jack's neck and Ianto fell back asleep.

*sings* Here he comes to save the day!!!! Hopefully he can make Ianto his normal, young, hot self again.

*laughs* Yeah, when all else fails, call the Doctor.

Oh I'm glad you continued this. I loved the bit with Jack and the Doctor - really nice to see them talk like this. Love the nod to Donna :)

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it.

Nice to see the Doctor being able to actually help Jack deal with the mortality thing, for a change :)

I know! He can be a right bastard to Jack sometimes, but I know deep down he cares.
