Author notes: Written for Challenge 211 - Dramatic pause at drabble_weekly
Summary: Jack is equally stunned by the latest news. A double drabble. Sequel to Expecting.

'Pregnant?' Jack said, giving Ianto a look of incredulity.

'Yep,' Ianto confirmed, pulling out plates as they caught up on the day's events over making dinner. Just like earlier there was a long pause before Jack spoke again. Melodrama seemed to run in Ianto's extended family.

'To Johnny? I mean, Johnny is the dad, right?'

Ianto fwapped him around the back of the head and Jack cried out in pain, touching the spot Ianto had hit. Since Ianto had received similar treatment for the same question from his now hormonal and even more unpredictable sister, it seemed only fair Jack should receive his fair share. It wasn't Ianto's fault they both shared the same thought. Thinking about his sister and Johnny having sex was, well... wrong. He didn't care if that was immature. When it came to his sister, divine intervention, or the stork, were much easier concepts to swallow.

'Wow,' Jack said. 'At her age?'

'Don't start,' Ianto warned him. He didn't want to have to whack Jack again.

'Wow,' Jack repeated.

'Yeah. I had to pick my jaw up off the floor, too.'

Jack quirked and eyebrow and grinned. 'Is this sibling rivalry?'

'We're not having another one.'

Ianto's been there and done that, three kids are plenty.
