Title: The Late Uncle

Author: badly_knitted

Characters: Ianto, Rhiannon, Mica.

Rating: G

Written For: Challenge 372: Party at tw100

Spoilers: Nada.

Summary: Ianto accidentally breaks a promise, among other things.

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

“It’s Mica’s party tomorrow,” Rhiannon reminded Ianto over the phone. “You’ll be there won’t you? She’s really looking forward to seeing you.”

“I’ll be there. Three o’clock, right? I hope she’ll like her present.”

“If it’s from you, I’m sure she’ll love it.”

OoOoOoO

Three o’clock came and went with no uncle Ianto. Mica hid it well, but she was disappointed. Just after four, the doorbell rang. Rhi pulled it open ready to let rip, but…

“Oh my God! What happened?”

“Sorry I’m late. Broke my ankle, been in casualty getting it plastered.” Ianto looked sheepish. “I tripped over Mica’s present.”

The End

Ianto's just lucky that way ;)

Of course, he could be lying to Rhi, maybe he tripped over a Weevil ;)

Thank you!

Most accidents occur in the home!

Thank you!

Haha - you are so right !

[bk_forever]

Aliens are easy compared to domestic hazards!

Thank you!

Oops, a domestic accident? Come on, Ianto, who would believe that? Mica maybe but the rest of us .....

[bk_forever]

Most accidents happen in the home, it's quite possible and it would be just Ianto's luck to hurt himself in such a ridiculous way.

Thank you!

Well at least he has a good reason for being late LOL
(or was it a cover for we were hunting weevils and I got attacked)Torchood employees have to be creative with their excuses lol

[bk_forever]

It might be an excuse, maybe he tripped over a Weevil. Then again, it could be the truth and he just had one of those unfortunate accidents that can happen in the home. ;)

Thank you!

Mica is lucky to have an uncle so persistent.
and if unlucky !!!
I am curious to know what he stumbled? !!!!!
What is the gift of Micah ????

Thank you!
