Just a cute little one shot. I heard the song Wrinkles by Diamond Rio and this just came to me. Should probably listen to the song first; It will make the story make more since.
Hope you all like it. Review if you would like.
Wrinkles
"Daddy?" four year old Jacob Jethro DiNozzo (Jethro for short) said in a worried tone, drawing his father's attention. "What's wrong wif my toes and fingers?"
"What do you mean buddy?" Tony DiNozzo asked picking his son up out of the bath tub.
"Dey looks like yucky raisins." Jethro said, holding up his small fingers for his dad to see. "Will dey ever look normal again daddy?"
"Well Jethro, those are wrinkles" Tony explained as he set his son on the bathroom counter. As he wiped off his face, Jethro looked closely at his father.
"You look like raisins too. Daddy we match!" Jethro said smiling, as his father dabbed a little bit of shaving cream on his chin.
"Yeah I do. But hey wrinkles are nothing to be afraid of. They just show that a person withstands time and experience true love. Some wrinkles, like the ones on your fingers and toes will go away, and some like the ones on my face are going to stay. But son you are still young so you have anything to worry about, your gonna be ok."
"M'kay daddy." Jethro said as he hopped down from the counter.
As he was walking to his room he saw his mom getting ready to go out with his daddy on a date. "Damn wrinkles." She said, not knowing that Jethro was in the hall listening "I wish I was still the twenty seven year old that had no wrinkles at all, oh how I miss those days."
"Mommy, dose are winkles, daddy says dey noting to be 'cared of. They just poof dat you lived and you love!" Jethro said drawing Ziva's attention to himself at her doorway. "Some gonna go away like da ones dat makes me looks like a raisin, and some gonna stay like da ones you and daddy have. No worry mommy you still look young" Jethro said walking up to Ziva and giving her a hug.
As Jethro got older he realized he was getting a few permanent wrinkles. And he could guarantee he and his brother and sister gave their parents a few. But he realized that everyone eventually has them; there is no doubt about it.
He realized with the help from his Grandpa Jethro Gibbs, that the wrinkles in life, unlike the ones on a person's face can be ironed out.
Thanks to his father he knew that wrinkles were just a part of growing up, a right of passage if you will. And that they are nothing to be afraid of. And when his son, Marcus Leroy DiNozzo, came and asked him why his skin looked like a raisin he would be able to explain it to him.
