Chapter 2
It was lunchtime and most of the NCIS headquarters had headed out to lunch, which was perfect as Jenny really did not want any of her agents seeing how upset she was, her eyes were still quite red after crying for 2 hours.
Jenny walked down to the vending machine and brought herself a candy bar to keep her going for the rest of the day, she knew she should've probably got something more substantial but she didn't really feel up to eating at that moment.
On her journey back to her office, she was stopped by Gibbs.
"Jenny we need to talk." Gibbs said, just then he noticed how red her eyes were, "Jen, have you been crying?"
Jenny shook her head, "No, of course not, now if you don't mind I would like to get back to work." She replied, she pushed past him and ran up to her office, tears glistening in Jenny's eyes, why was it so hard to be around him?
After a long day of paperwork, meetings and spending hours in MTAC, Jennifer was ready to go home. By now it was 6pm and she promised she would be back before 7pm. She climbed into her car and drove home. It was just before 7pm when she arrived at her home, she placed her coat on the hanger, put her keys on the table, locked her gun in the safe and placed her bag on the hallway floor. She walked into the living room where 2 people were sat watching television, a youngish man and a beautiful 5 year old girl.
The girl had heard Jenny walk in, her bright blue eyes peeked out from behind her fiery red hair and looked at Jenny who was stood in the doorway.
"Mommy!" The girl screamed and ran over to Jenny with her arms in the air.
Jenny picked up her daughter, cuddling her close and smiled, "Stacie Isabella Shepard, What have I told you about shouting?"
Stacie looked at her mother and smiled, "Sorry." She said and batted her long eyelashes.
"It's okay, but try not to do it again please, mommy has a headache." Jenny replied and held her daughter close, Jenny placed Stacie on the ground.
The man stood up and hugged Jenny, "See you later." He said and kissed her cheek.
"Thanks for looking after her." Jenny replied.
Just then the doorbell rand, Jenny shook her head as she watched Stacie run to the door, Stacie opened the door and looked up at the man stood there.
Jethro Gibbs stood there staring at the girl. She looked like a mini version of Jenny, from the hair to the style of dress, the only thing was that she had the most beautiful blues eyes ever instead of Jenny's mesmerising emerald green ones.
"MOMMY!" Stacie shouted, "There's someone at the door for you!"
"Stacie, I have told you a million times before not to open the door without an adult there, it's not safe." Jenny shouted with a exasperated smile and walked out of the living room with the other man in tow, she looked at Gibbs and muttered 'Oh crap!' under her breath.
Jethro looked at Jenny, then the man, then the little girl, she had a daughter and a boyfriend.
"Sorry to ruin your's and your boyfriend's evening Jen but…" He was cut off by the sound of Jenny's laughter, "What?"
"He's…..Not….My….Boyfriend," Jenny said between breaths, "He's my younger brother."
"Oh."
"Now, How can I help you Jethro?"
"Mommy, who is he?" Stacie said looking at him.
"I guess I have some explaining to do but….He's um… he is your father." She mumbled not willing to look at either her daughter or the man with whom her child shared her DNA.
