Sarah lifted Katie into her arms, three days later at the home of Jackson Gibbs. Sarah's face was battered and bruised, her face slightly swollen in places as she cradled her sleeping child close to her.
A knock at the door made Sarah hide with her child in the basement, dragging their bag with her and hiding beneath the stairs.
Jackson sighed, knowing that the girl was terrified, she had reacted this way with every phone call and every knock on the wooden door.
He opened the door to reveal a red headed director along with the girls parents, "Where is she Jackson?" Jen asked straight away as she walked inside
The older Gibbs indicated to the basement which made Jen run straight down into the basement, "Sarah? Are you okay?" she asked when she knelt beside her
Sarah nodded, "Yeah I'm okay" she said softly
Jen hugged her tight against her, "Come on lets get out of this basement" she said softly and led Sarah and the little girl upstairs to where Ziva and Jethro were both sat.
Sarah sat down on the sofa beside her mother and Jen, after laying down her daughter on the other sofa, she curled into Jen's arms
Jethro took hold of his daughter's hand, knowing Tony had been arrested and silently vowing to protect his child forever.
They all knew it would be okay, as long as they protected each other, little did Sarah know that true love was just around the corner, LITERALLY
