A/N: My eleventh drabble for this challenge, inspired by comments on one of my other Awkward Moment drabbles, ‘Mobbed’
Jack was surprised to see Ianto leaving a pub. He’d told Jack he would be at his sister’s tonight, babysitting so she and Johnny could have a night out. Jack had planned to go over there in a bit with a rented movie. He wondered if he’d got his days mixed up. Ah well, he’d just go say hi and find out.
“Hey, gorgeous, wanna go have some fun?” He gave Ianto a little grope.
That got him punched.
“Mind who you’re groping, I’m a married man!”
“Ianto?”
“Ah, no. I’m Gareth. Ianto’s my cousin. Everyone says we look alike.”

Eleven drabbles for this prompt? You go, girl! That's got to be some sort of record!

As the seasons progressed, I think Gareth was given the chance to let more of his real personality show through. His confidence, cockiness and dry wit added a whole new dimension to Ianto's reserved, professional persona. It really was more entertaining when Ianto's "inner Gareth" was allowed out to play.

Thank you!
