Ianto grunted as he was kicked in his back once again. His youngest had been suffering from nightmares all night and now at 4am, it didn't look like they were starting to ease off.

He and Jack had been taking turns looking after her through the night. Jack soothing and singing a lullaby to her, Ianto trying to cool her down with a damp flannel and stroking her hair.

Getting up from the bed, Ianto sighed and started to head towards the door quietly. "Where you going Ianto?" Jack asked softly. Ianto paused in mid step and looked towards where Jack was in the bed, watching him curiously.

"I'm moving to the sofa downstairs. I'm going to have a giant bruise on my back if I stay here and I'm not planning on explaining it to Owen" Ianto replied, grabbing hold of their spare pillow and duvet which they kept in the corner of the bedroom for emergencies.

"Da!" Emily whimpered, holding her arms out to him, clenching and unclenching her fists as she started to cry. Jack looked at his daughter in mild surprise. She was the typical daddy's girl, wanting to cling to him when she was ill or upset and for her to call for Ianto was a little unknown.

Ianto softened at once and moved to the bed, stroking his daughter's flushed cheek gently. "Its alright baban. I'm just going downstairs to get some sleep. So you and daddy can have the big bed" Ianto explained, looking at Jack briefly before bringing his attention back to his distressed child.

"No! Don't want! Stay!" Emily begged, still sobbing. Jack looked at Ianto steadily, rubbing slow soothing circles on his daughter's back. "Will you stop kicking me then young lady?" Ianto asked, with a raised eyebrow.

"I will! Promise! Don't leave Emily! No no no no no! Stay!" Emily ordered, wiggling back under the covers as she saw that Ianto was going to stay as he put the duvet and pillow back with a sigh.

"Excuse me princess? I am here you know" Jack pointed out with a slight tone of hurt in his voice causing Ianto to roll his own eyes.

"I know daddy but I want both daddies! Both keep safe!" Emily told him with a nod of her head. "Or you know how to make your Daddy jealous" Ianto chuckled, getting back into the bed and tucking Emily in but shifting her slightly so she was against Jack, who gave him an amused look. "You're snugglier" Ianto explained with an almost cheeky grin as he stroked his daughter's hair. "Now go to sleep. We're right here and nothing is going to get you" Ianto soothed. "Night princess" Jack added as she went back to sleep. "You definitely have the touch Ianto Jones" Jack commented quietly. "Well she's your daughter, I know how to deal with a Harkness" Ianto replied with a shrug as they both watched their daughter sleep peacefully.
