The Hardest Decision

by luckiestlulu

He believes this is the hardest decision that he has never had to make. Jeanne or the team. I know we know, but I felt that I needed to express it. Set when Tony is burning the letter and his thoughts. Second time lucky! Oneshot

Sadly don't own anything… only the stories I make up!!

Set after the second episode in the fifth series, 'Family' the one where Tony has to keep ringing up the victim's marks and the episode ends with Tony burning the letter Jeanne left him

This is the second time I have uploaded it and have added Ducky into it this time… thank you to the reviewer who alerted me to the fact that Ducky was not there!!

Thanks for reading, hope you like it!

Tony

I'm not coming back. You need to choose.

Jeanne

Looking between the two scenes was one of the hardest decisions he never needed to make. In all honesty if someone had asked him at the start of the assignment if he would miss her at the end he would have said no.

But now. A little. Someone to ring, to talk to, to laugh with, to kiss… to love at the end of the day.

Two scenes. One person. One decision.

Jeanne, him and a little one.

Or

his own dysfunctional family.

Probie - the kid brother he never had, he knew McGeek idolised him really. And he cared in his own 'I-can't-give-an-explanation-without-adding-an-ununderstandable-word-in-every-sentence'

Gibbs – Well he cares. He would go to the ends of the earth for an agent, probably head-slap them that distance too. No doubt he was a good dad – still would be too.

Abby – The wacky younger sister. The one you always feel you have to protect, and kind of admire. She has been through a lot for a lab tech and she's still smiling.

Ducky – Well Ducky is… Ducky. The grandfather of the group. Or the wise old man that everyone calls Uncle. Or the slightly eccentric one that sits in the rocking chair. Still, he's part of the family.

Ziva – The only woman ever on this earth to walk into a men's bathroom, a men's, and talk to you about your feelings with your trousers down. Almost. Unbelievable.

And.

Kate – The reassuring presence when problems arise. Miss her.

Although he believes that they would forgive him, and be a little shocked – Tony DiNozzo settling down – there is only one family he wants to belong to.

No contest really.

Goodbye and good luck Jeanne.

Thanks for getting this far. Hope you enjoyed it.

Please review. I shall love you forevermore!! Honest!
