A/N: this is totally AU. Kat, is mine but I don't own any of the NCIS characters.
Friday night - D.C Jethro's house
"Hello L-J" Katherine says climbing out of her SUV.
"Kat" He says warmly as he greets her for a hug. "Where's the girls?"
"In the back, so you'll drop them off Sunday evening after dinner?"
"Yes, just relax. We have been through this a thousand times. You need to stop worrying. We'll have a great time."
"Sure, it's like returning to the scene of the crime." She says sarcastically.
"Are you sure you can't come Jethro?"
"What? Return home and listen to all that gossip. No thanks. Look, I'm happy the take the girls for an extra weekend." Gently, he lays his arm around her in a half hug. "You have to go back there some time. I know your family has treated you poorly. But if you don't, you know they'll give more crap."
"Well, that's true. I'm doing this for Charlie. And it'll be good to see Dad."
"That's the spirit Kat. Look, if it gets too heated you can lay low at Dad's. I'm sure Dad would love to see you."
"I love your dad Jethro, but my family would find me there. Is it too late to back out?"
"Yes, Charlie and Sam will be very disappointed if Charlie's best woman didn't show. Now get going. I'll see you Sunday night."
"Thanks again for taking Lucy and Zoe."
"They're my children too Kat!"
"I know Jet!" Kat opens the door and out scrambles a set of the most adorable twins. With beautiful honey blond hair like their mother and piercing blue eyes like their father.
"Daddy!" The girls scream running towards Jethro. Kat's heart melts!
