Title: Happy Birthday, Jack – Sequel to ‘What’s Going On?’

Author: badly_knitted

Characters: Ianto, Jack

Rating: G

Spoilers: Nada.

Summary: Ianto explains and gives Jack his present.

Disclaimer: I don’t own Torchwood, or the characters.

A/N: Third of five drabbles for owensheart, who prompted me with ‘Ianto discovers the actual date of Jack’s birthday and decides to surprise him with a little celebration.’

Up in their hotel room, Ianto sat Jack on their bed and explained what he’d done before rummaging in the bags and presenting Jack with a beautifully wrapped gift.

“Happy birthday, Jack.”

For the first time in a very long time, Jack was rendered speechless; he just sat there, staring first at the gift in his hands, then at Ianto, then back at his gift in complete bewilderment.

“It’s my birthday?”

“Yes, Jack, and since we only have two days here you might want to open that before we have to leave.”

“Oh, right!”

Jack carefully peeled the wrapping away.

Thank you! His brain is trying to catch up with the idea that he has a birthday, he's lived over a century without one, lol!

Oooh, oooh! Wonder what Ianto got for Jack?

You'll find out in the b=next part, but it's something Jack really didn't expect!

Thank you.

Thank you! Poor Jack is completely bewildered - he has a birthday!

Very nice - love how Jack is more touched about getting a gift than he is eager to see what it is ... though I'm dying to know what you cooked up.

Jack is having a hard time getting his head around actually having a birthday I think, and the gift is so beautifully wrapped it's enough for him to just look at the outside and think 'This is for me!' It's a big deal to him.

Thank you.

I can't really take credit for the actual gift, I couldn't think of anything so I asked owensheart, whose prompt it was, and she came up with the idea.

He's still trying to get his head around having a birthday! He's done without one for so long...

Thank you!
