Summary: AU! Jenny and Jethro are married and have two kids, Tony, age 16, and Abby, age 14. For future reference, McGee is also 14 and Ziva is 16. Also, even though Jenny and Jethro maintain their normal jobs, Ziva's father will not be the head of Mossad. Instead he will be a former Mossad officer coming to the States to work for the embassy (it's not important and i know it sounds lame it's just...he can't be the head of Mossad and live in the U.S. that doesn't make any sense!)

Disclaimer: If I owned it...so much would be different and it would all just be one romantic hullabaloo. (yes, that is a real word.)

Rating: T for Teen. Because...some bad language will be used because when you're in high school...it is just natural. trust me, im in high school...i know about these things!

Pairings: Tiva (first and foremost), Jibbs (just cuz...they're married), and McAbby (maybe...i mean...most likely i'll slip it in there just cuz im a sneaky bastard like that (: )

Chapter 1: Something to Say

"Tony…I need to tell you something," she protested.

Anthony Gibbs unwound his arms from around her waist and looked into her gorgeous brown eyes. He wondered what could've been so important as to interrupt one of his famous bear hugs. "What is it?"

He then carefully watched as she dipped her head down. "I'm moving," she stuttered.

All of a sudden his mind went blank, but finally, after what felt like a life time to Kate, he replied with, "No, no Kate you can't move! Not now! Not when everything's finally coming together. You--- you can't go!"

Boy did he sound like a child right now. But what was he supposed to say? "Oh that's great. I'm so glad you're moving away from me!"

Yeah, he didn't think so.

Besides, what he had said was true -- everything was finally coming together. They had told each other at the very end of the last school year that they would take a break from each other. Both had agreed that summer relationships never really worked out at their age, but eventually it couldn't be helped. Two weeks after their split, they got back together again. Though I guess that's what happens when you live right across the street from each other. Avoiding the one person you really care about gets tricky. They had spent the whole summer together and everything felt so right…until now.

Kate tried to explain why she was moving on such short notice but Tony just couldn't process any of it. Everything she told him came out like gibberish. All he could think about was that his girlfriend of 1 year, 3 months, and 2 and a half days was moving away. She was the longest relationship he had ever had with a girl and he planned on keeping it that way at least till the end of high school.

But apparently Tony had planned wrong.

So there he was one week later sitting on his bed, throwing the rubber lacrosse ball at his wall while his girlfriend was right outside his house packing up her things into the large moving van. Tony crawled over to his window and pulled open the blinds.

He peered out across the street and watched as Kate and her father placed boxes into their car while her mother was busy talking to the moving van driver.

Tony still couldn't believe she hadn't told him sooner about the move. It sucked that she was moving all the way to Washington State, all the way across the country. What sucked even more was giving him only a weeks notice on the matter. He sure as hell wasn't ready to say goodbye after only one week of preparing! Though he guessed with Kate, he would never really be ready.

Suddenly a knock came from his door.

"Come in," he mumbled; even though, now really wasn't the best time to talk.

His younger sister, Abby, emerged slowly from the doorway. "Hey," she said as she walked over to the bed and took a seat.

"Hey," Tony murmured back.

"This sucks, huh?"

Tony nodded in response and Abby leaned up against his shoulder. She may have only been two years younger than him, but Abby always acted like she was a child…in a good way of course!

"We'll still be able to visit her," she suggested.

At this, Tony shook his head and sighed. "It won't be the same Abs. Besides…it'll be awkward if I go to visit."

"What do you mean 'awkward'? She's still your girlfriend, so what's the matter? They say that when lovers are apart for a long time it just makes their love stronger…or something along those lines."

Tony sighed once more and looked away from his sister's shiny green eyes.

"Tony," she began. "She's still your girlfriend…right?"

Ever so slowly, Tony shook his head, and ever so slowly, Abby wrapped her arms around her older brother and began to cry silently. Tony felt his shirt begin to go damp.

"Abby, why are you crying?"

"Because…it's sad. It's sad that you and Kate aren't together anymore, and it's sad that she's moving all the way to Washington State. She's my best friend, Tony. She's my best friend, and both you and I love her. Th-that's why I'm crying."

Tony held his sister and rubbed her back. "Shh, it'll be okay Abby. I promise." Though he wasn't quite sure he even believed in what he was saying.

Abby's crying slowed and soon came to a stop. Another knock produced from the door. "Come in," they said; though they didn't know who would be home this early in the afternoon.

The door opened and their mother entered the room. It was a surprise to both of them, seeing her home so early. "I took off work early today in order to say goodbye," she explained before her children could question her. "One of the many perks of being the boss."

"Is Daddy home too?" asked Abby.

Jenny nodded and leaned up against the wall across from Tony's bed. "He's outside right now helping them load the truck." She nodded towards Tony's window, causing both Tony and Abby to pear out to see for themselves.

Sure enough there was Mr. Gibbs, carrying the heavier objects into the van with the help of Kate's father and one of the hired moving van workers. Tony noticed that there wasn't much more stuff to be packed away. In fact, the only things left were five boxes that Kate was piling into their car.

Jenny sighed, catching her children's attention. "We should go out and say goodbye."

Tony and Abby could tell by their mother's voice that this was just as hard for her. They knew she was never good with goodbyes.

"Kate, hurry up! We gotta get a move on if we want to beat traffic!" Mr. Todd yelled outside.

Simultaneously, their eyes all widened. Abby and Tony jolted up off the bed and hurriedly followed their mother down the stairs and out the front door.

As they ran across the street, Mr. and Mrs. Todd waved and smiled. Abby and Tony immediately ran over to Kate.

"Hey guys," she said as she set another box into the back seat.

Abby said nothing and Tony unconsciously picked up two boxes and placed them in the car.

"Well, that's the last of them," Kate stated and out of nowhere Abby leaped over and hugged her.

"I'm gonna miss you, Kate," she said after awhile.

"I'll miss you too, Abs."

Tony coughed purposefully and Abby leaned out of the hug. "I'll see you in December."

"'Course!" Kate replied before hugging Abby once more.

"I'm a go say bye to your parents."

"Kay. Bye Abs."

Abby waved and skipped along the sidewalk towards the moving van, leaving Kate and Tony alone.

He opened his mouth, but he had nothing to say. "What did Abby mean by "see you in December"?" he decided to start with.

"Hmm?" She leaned back on the car. "Oh we just figured that during winter break either I could come down here to visit you or you guys could come to visit us."

"You don't…think that will be awkward?"

She raised an eyebrow and half smirked. "No. Why would it? We're still friends, aren't we?"

"Yeah!" He brought his hand around to scratch behind his head. "Yeah, of course we are!"

Out of no where Kate began to laugh and shake her head. "God you are so weird!"

Tony couldn't help but smile at the sight of her grin and the sound of her laugh. Damn, he was gonna miss that.

After seconds of staring Tony pulled Kate into a hug that he wanted to last forever. "You know a line from one of your chick flicks sure would help right now."

"Told you they were all worth watching!" she snickered.

"Well, I wouldn't say all of them…"

Kate leaned back to take a good look at what she would be leaving behind. "I'm gonna miss you, Tony," she said, fighting back tears.

Tony gulped and looked straight into her eyes, dreading that he wouldn't see them ever again. "I love Kate; I always will. I just want you to know that."

Kate didn't know what to say. Of course she loved him too, but she didn't think he would mention it again after they broke up. Instead of saying anything she just buried her head into his shoulder and tried ever so hard not to cry. She hadn't even noticed that both her parents and Tony's had approached the car.

"Kate, sweetie, we should get going now," her mother suggested from the sidelines.

Kate reluctantly unthreaded her arms from Tony's hold and looked up. "I'll message you as soon as we get our wi-fi set up, kay?"

Tony nodded and before they let go for good, she placed a kiss to his cheek.

"Goodbye Tony."

"Goodbye Kate."

He watched her say goodbye to his parents and slip into the car. In a flash, she was gone.

It had been 1 year, 3 months, and roughly 9 days that he had spent in love with the same perfect girl, and yet in less than a minute it was all gone; down the drain; lost forever.

With only a week and two days left of summer, Tony was positive that his junior year was going to be one of the most miserable years of his life.

Little did he know, he was most certainly wrong.
