Drabble: Milestones

[bk_forever]

Title: Milestones

Author: badly_knitted

Characters: Ianto, Jack, Meriel.

Rating: G

Written For: Challenge 400: Milestone at tw100

Spoilers: Nada.

Summary: Ianto doesn’t just have a baby book for Meriel; he has a whole library.

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

First tooth, first steps, first word; Ianto noted every milestone in Meriel’s baby book, and kept going. First Christmas, first birthday, first day at nursery, first day at school… he charted the growth of their first child in photographs and prose, filling one journal after another with anecdotes.

The time Meriel looked after the school hamster over Easter and it escaped, making a nest in Jack’s socks. And the funfair when she’d put her ice cream in Jack’s pocket for safekeeping, and Jack’s reaction on finding it…

He never wanted to forget a single moment of their little girl’s life.

The End

Sweet, although I don't usually like child fic. I'll make an exception for Jack and Ianto. I@ve been told my maternal instinct was surgicALLY REMOVED AT AN EARLY AGE. I can see them taking great pleasure in recording their child's life.

I've never had a maternal instinct either, I avoid kids, but I figured having one would make Jack and Ianto happy, so I kind of got sucked into writing that.

Thank you.

Exploring other worlds with Jack is an interesting experience for Ianto, if not always very enlightening!

Thank you!
