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.”

Hehe that's funny :-)
Although slightly worrying that Jack can't recognise his own boyfriend, no matter how alike they look!

ROFL! That must be some family resemblance!

I like the idea of Ianto and GDL being cousins. :D That would explain why they look so similar but really aren't much alike at all. GDL comes off as much less snarky and way more genial (albeit in a quiet, reserved way) than Ianto. :-p

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

Good thing Jack heals fast, the explanation of that bruise would be entertaining! LOL!

Oh dear, haha! Poor Jack just wanted to have some fun! xD

I'm sure of that! At least after Ianto is done laughing about Jack's mishap when he tells him what he did (that is, IF he tells him about it! xD)

And wow, it's your eleventh drabble for this prompt already? Then again, "Awkward moments" is a really inspiring prompt xD

Oops, poor Jack! well at least he has already found one out of the seven similar people to Ianto!

Poor Jack. He'll always find a way to get into trouble.

I think Gareth and Ianto together would really give Jack a run for his money. 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.

Oops!! Poor Jack - and poor Ianto if the family wasn't already aware he was seeing a man! Could be awkward...

Cute :D Like how you've covered both GDL and JB :)

Whoops, awkward! Jack should've known something was up when he saw 'Ianto' in a t-shirt and jeans! ;)
