This is my second story, it is mostly Gibbs and Hollis, with some Tiva and maybe McAbby thrown in.
A second Chance
Chapter one
His big callused hands lowly slid down her body, she moans with pleasure. He has always been great with his hands, his lips leave kiss a trail down her neck leaving little marks, marking her as his. His mouth reaches her nipples, sucking on one then the other. Continuing down her body. Placing kisses over her belly, down one leg then up the other, missing the place she wants him the most.
"Jethro, please."
He smiles against her skin, making his way back up, kissing her on the lips.
"Jethro please. I want you now."
"I know Holly, I know."
She reaches between them sliding her hand up and down him. He moans against her lips.
"Hol….."
"I need you."
He kisses her as he finally enters her, they moan together. The pace starts slow, moving their hips together.
"Hol…."
She moans, moving her hips faster picking up the pace. "
"Oh Jethro."
"Holly."
He smiles down at her; they are about to climax when his face starts to change.
"Jethro? Jethro?"
"Mommy? Mommy." Holly wakes up to see her son standing next to her shaking her.
"Mommy, you k?"
He has a worried look on his face. She smiles at him.
"Yes baby, I am fine. What are you doing out of bed LJ?"
"Need drink."
"Ok are you sisters still sleeping?"
"Yes."
She smiles, standing picking up her 2 year old. He lays his head on her shoulder. Walking to the kitchen, setting LJ in a chair while she gets his drink. Handing it him, he hands it back when he is done.
"Time for bed."
"K mommy. Sleep with you?"
"Sure, honey."
Picking him, carrying him to her room placing him on it. Kissing his forehead.
"I'm going to check on your sisters. You stay here."
He nodes his head. His eyes are already dropping closed. Holly makes her way over to the girl's room, peaking in, they are still asleep. Heading back to her room, smiles seeing her son curled up sleeping. She can't believe she has a kid let alone triplets. She was very surprised when she found out; it was a very easy pregnancy. Hardly any morning sickness, she kept in shape so hardly any weight gain. Even after she had them she worked out, now she was back to her old size. She was glad she was retired, so she could watch them grow up; she just wished she could tell their father. But she didn't know how he would handle it. Holly sighed. She had enough love for both of them. Holly knew she would have to tell him at some point. Shaking her head, she gets into bed next to her son; he cuddles right next to her. He has to be touching her. She falls asleep with a smile on her face.
Waking up, the next morning with the sun on her face, turning her head she sees at some point in the night the girls joined them, lightly she ruffles each other their hair; they start to stir.
"Mommy?"
"Morning honey, how are you?"
"Fine, I hungry."
"Ok, Shelby. Let's wake up your sister and brother." Shelby's eyes light up, getting out from under the covers she starts to jump on the bed.
"Up L.J, up Anna." They moan and roll over, they are not morning people.
"Come on L.J, Anna time for breakfast." L.J opens his blue eyes slowly, Anna puts the pillow over her head.
"Don't wanna."
"Come on Anna, I'll make pancakes."
"Ok." Anna pulls her head out from under the pillow giving her brother and sister a glare so much like their father Holly just has to laugh.
"Now Anna, don't" Holly leans over kissing her head.
"Now let's go make breakfast." The three kids jump off the bed, running down the hall.
"Slow down." Their mother calls after them.
After breakfast was done, Holly got all the kids dressed and ready for the day. Turning on the TV in her room for them, she went and quickly took a shower; getting ready herself. Turing back to the bed she finds them asleep with L.J in the middle of his sisters. Running to get her camera she takes a picture, while they are asleep she decides to check her email. Going through them getting rid of the ones she doesn't want then going through the ones she kept. One of them is from NCIS, her heart beats a little fast wondering if it is from Jethro, opening it she reads:
Dear Ms. Hollis Mann,
My name is Jennifer Shepard, Director of NCIS. I know you are retired; but an old cold case was reopened by Agent Gibb's team. We have been working on the case for weeks and have gotten nowhere. We could really use your help. Below I have attached the notes from Agent Gibb's team and yours. If you could have your answer within the next two it would be great.
Thank you,
Director Jennifer Shepard.
After reading it twice, she leans back in her chair. What should I do? I would really like to help get this guy, I have been after him for years, but now I have the kids and Jethro doesn't know anything about them. What would he say when he found out? I would have to tell him, I mean I show up 3 years later with three kids that look a lot like him. What would I do with them while I was working the case? I know no one there? I don't have a house there anymore. Holly decides to email back the Director with her questions.
A few days later…..
The director emailed her back answering all her questions and Holly has decided to go to DC to help them out. She told the kids they were going on a vacation. Once land Holly and the kids head right to NCIS. She is starting to get nervous.
"Mommy?"
"Yes, Shelby?"
"Where we going?"
"We have to stop at mommy's new work."
"Why?"
"Because mommy has to get some stuff."
"Ok."
"Mommy, I hungry." L.J wines, grabbing some snack from her bag, handing each of them one. Once they stop at the right floor, she ushers the kids down the hall; looking down at the bull pen where she knows Gibbs works. He and his team were not there, letting the breath she didn't know she was holding go.
"Can I help you?" Ask a girl outside of the Directors office.
"Yes, Hollis Mann to see the Director."
"Ok hold on."
"Director"
"Yes, Cyntha?"
"A Hollis Mann is here to see you."
"Send her in."
"Yes, ma'am, you can go right in."
"Thank you. Come on kids." Opening the door allowing the kids in first, walking in closing the door behind her.
"Director." Walking up to her, shaking her hand. The read head is staring at the kids.
" Director?" Jenny snaps out of it, looking at Holly.
"Sorry, yes Ms. Mann. Thank you for coming. Who are these adorable kids?" Holly smiles
"These are L.J, Anna and Shelby, say hello." The three say hello.
"This is one of things you were talking about in your email."
"Yes, I need someone to watch them while I am here."
"Of course, I have thought about that since your email; Abby is happy to watch them."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, Abby is very good with kids and has a safe place for them to go when she is working with bad chemicals or something like that."
"Great." Turning back to the kids.
"Guys, I have to talk to Miss. Shepard, why don't you get yours toys out and play with them."
"Ok Mommy." L.J grabs the bag, dragging it over by the couch and the three start to play.
"Ok, you have some papers I need to sign?"
"Yes, let's go over to the table." The two women sit down and start to go over everything. All of sudden there is screaming and crying. Holly rushes over to see Shelby crying with Anna giving L.J the death stair.
"What happen?" Jenny stairs at the little girl, she knows that look, then it clicks Gibbs! Could he be their father? She thinks back , it's been almost 3 years since she left. The kids have to be 2 years old, he could be, shaking her head she seed whatever happen is now over and Holly is once again next to her.
"One last thing to sign, then we can go down to Abby's lab and have her meet the kids."
"Sounds good." After another 10 minutes the group is on their way down to Abby's lab, on their way down they meet up with Ducky.
"Jennifer, what are you doing down here?"
"Ducky, I am bringing Ms. Mann and her children down to Abby's lab. She is going to be watching them While Ms. Mann helps us on a case."
"Oh?" Ducky looks down at the kids.
"Triplets?"
"Yes, L.J, Anna and Shelby, say hello to Dr. Mallard."
"Hello."
"Ducky please." He bends down to their level.
"Ducky?" L.J says
"Yes, young man?"
"You talk funny." Anna says shyly.
"Anna!"
"It's alright, Yes I am from another country."
"What's a country?"
"I will tell you later, you go meet Abigail." Ducky stands back up, says goodbye.
"Mommy, I like Ducky." L.J says
"Me too."
"Me too" Both his sisters say.
"Here we are. Abby had her music blasting, she was dancing while her computer was running.
"Abby!" Jenny yells, but Abby doesn't hear her. Jenny walks over and turns down the music.
"Hey what the…." Abby says as she turns and sees the director there.
"Director, what are you doing down here?"
" You a good dancer." Abby looks behind Jenny to see who said that.
"Thanks little guy. Are these the kids you were talking about?"
"Yes." Holly moves forward.
"Abby, these are my kids, L.J, Anna and Shelby. Say hello."
"Hello."
"You guys are soo cute, Hollis." The two women nod at each other.
"So guys come with me and I will show you around." The three follow her, she shows them what they can and cannot touch, she shows them Bert they love him, laughing every time he farts.
" When were you going to start?" Jenny asks as the two women watch Abby and the kids.
"Well, I wanted to look over everything, so I was thinking tomorrow?"
"Yes, that is fine."
"Abs, what have you…." Gibbs stops when he sees Jenny and he can't believe it Holly.
"Holly?" She smiles
"Hello Jethro."
"What are you doing here?"
" I am here to help you and your team with your case. It was one of mine that I could never solve."
"Jen, why didn't you tell me?"
" Hollis was not sure she could come and help, she just flew in today.
"Mommy! Mommy! Look Farts." The young boy giggles
"I see that." L.J looks past his mother to the new person.
"Who is that?"
