Chapter 6

Previously:

"Look like a crazy bunch of people" he said with a slight chuckle.

"Yeah but we love them, you can come meet them now if you'd like" she said with a smile knowing she didn't have any other ops or meetings to run.

"Ide like that very much" he said with a nod. He couldn't wait to meet the people that had such influence to his daughter's life.

Now:

Gibbs looked up from his desk down in the bullpen as the elevator dinged and Abby walked out Owen close behind with a backwards NCIS cap on his head, obviously something Abby had let him borrow considering he had forgotten the one Tony had Given him or more like Gibbs s took from his senior field agent.

Gibbs smiled at the memory of the 'day' out he had, had with the kids a year or so ago. "Daddy" Callie said walking away from Abby and to him with open arms.

"Hey Callie-cat, you have fun with aunt Abby?" he asked picking her up and putting her on his lap and kissing the side of her head just as the other two arrived.

"Yeah, she let me hold Burt the whole time" she grinned excitedly having always been fond of the hippo.

Abby sat on the edge of Tim's desk sending the sandy haired man a smile before turning back to Gibbs "They were both very good Gibbs" she said sending the children that looked so much like their parents warm smiles.

Ducky then walked into the bullpen "Ah Jethro I was wondering if you could sign these papers for me?" he asked pulling a pile of papers from under his arm and putting it on his friend's desk.

"Sure thing Duck" Gibbs said leaning over the little girl on his lap and looking over two documents before signing them.

Pushed the papers away and smiled down at Callie then to Ducky before hearing the door to Jenny's office open, he looked up and smiled at the sight of his wife coming around the corner, with a smile on her face as she spoke to her father, he noticed lately she had been so much happier, smiling a lot more, it was a nice thing to see.

Callie looked up at her father and then followed his gaze. "Grandpa!" the little redhead squealed from her father's arms.

Gibbs then noticed all his teams head's shot up and were looking around presumably for his father. Owen looked over to where his little sister was looking and smile as he saw his mother and latest grandfather walking down the stairs. Owen was a lot like Gibbs he didn't like to speak much and only did when he felt it necessary, he preferred to show how he felt whether it be a hug or a very intense glare.

Ziva noticed Jenny walking down the stairs along with a man that looked very familiar to her but she didn't know where from, Jenny seemed to be enjoying herself with this person, she was laughing and talking and seemed to be very comfortable around them.

Jenny and Jasper finally rounded the corner of the MCRT getting all of their attentions. Tony, Tim, Ducky and Abby all eyed the older man next to Jenny very suspicious of who they were.

"Guy's this is my father Jasper Shepard" The older redhead said with a big grin. To say the team were all shocked was to say one thing.

All They kept thinking was back to the time three years ago when they had been helping the CIA bring down the frog and how Gibbs and Jenny had fought so much they thought they would get a divorce.

Ducky was first to talk, he stepped forward and held out his hand "Donald Mallard, it's very nice to meet you" he said shaking Jaspers hand "You can call me Ducky" the Dr continued having a feeling that Jasper was a good man and didn't mean to cause any harm to the redhead they both loved as a daughter.

The oldest Shepard gave the ME a warm smile, this was the man that had looked after his daughter and he would never know how grateful he was for doing so "You can call me Jasper" he said.

Tony was next to approach him "Anthony DiNozzo but you can call me Tony" He said shaking the older man's hand and nodding.

"Nice to meet you Tony" the older man said seeing the respect and loyalty he had for his daughter and son in-law.

"Timothy McGee" Tim said stepping forward and shaking his hand, Jasper nodded with a smile.

Ziva then stood up "Ziva David" she said with a pleasant smile which he returned "I would just like to say that I have worked with your daughter for many years, she's is my best friend and I am very glad to be able to say that" she said looking at Jenny who gave her a watery smile.

Abby then jumped off of Tim's desk and stood in front of Jasper sending him a smile as she said "Abby Scutio" she said as the older man held out his hand to shake hers, she pushed it away and laughed before giving him a hug.

"Abby's a hugger, should have warned you" Jenny whispered to her father with a slight smile before walking over to her children and husband.

"He saw the picture of the team, wanted to meet them" she said answering the question that was all in her husband's eyes but not on his face.

Jenny then felt a tap on her arm, she turned and kneeled down to her daughters height. "Yeah Cal" she said putting a hand on her daughters cheek.

"Can I go sit in your big chair now?" she asked with the puppy dog blue eyes so much like her fathers that she couldn't resist.

"Sure thing sweetie" she said standing up to her original height and picking up the little girl "Owen you wanna come to or do you want to stay here?" she asked looking at her son with a smile.

"Stay here" the little boy said with a grin before going over and sitting at his father's desk.

Jenny laughed to herself before carrying Callie up the stairs and to her office. As the two Gibbs girls reached the reception of the office Cynthia looked up with a worried expression, "Hi Cynthia" Callie said with a grin, she had always been fond of the woman since she was a little girl.

"Wow Callie you look more like your mother every time I see you" the brunet said with a smile making the little girl giggle, Jenny sensed there was something that her assistant wasn't telling her.

The older redhead opened her office door "Cal you can go sit on the chair I'll be there in a minute" she said and before she could change her mind the little girl had already run to sit in the chair.

"What is it Cynthia?" Jenny asked not in the mood for guessing games.

"Your babysitter just called, she had to cancel and Sec-Nav already make sure you and Special Agent Gibbs were going to attend" she said with an apologetic look.

"It's ok Cynthia, we'll figure something out" Jenny said reassuringly but inside she didn't know what they were going to do, Tony, Ziva and McGee were protection detail so they couldn't babysit and she knew that Abby was bowling with the nuns and Ducky was going to visit his mother. Asking Jimmy would just be awkward.

She put a smile on her face as she walked into her office "Mummy this chair is really comfy" Callie said swinging her legs as she sat her feet didn't touch the ground.

"It had to be so I don't get uncomfortable when I make phone calls and sign reports" Jenny explained with a smile.

"Can I have one for my room?" the little girl asked innocently.

"Sure thing sweetie" she said kissing the top of her daughters head "Come on I have to go talk to your father, you can come sit in the chair more later I promise" she said with a smile.

"Pinky Promise" Callie said eyeing her mother suspiciously in a look that was so Gibbs, and holding out her little finger.

"Pinky Promise" the older redhead said hooking her finger with her daughters before shaking it, the little girl laughed to herself as Jenny picked her up and carried her out of the office "You're getting too big for me to carry" Jenny muttered to herself, knowing she had to stop it before she broke her back in.

"Jen you ok?" Gibbs asked as his wife rounded the bullpen with a worried expression.

"The babysitter cancelled and we have to go to the ball tonight, what are we going to do?" she asked him as she let the little girl down.

"Uhmm" Gibbs began to think, he wasn't sure, he had promised he would go and he knew better than to go against his word when it came to Jenny.

Jasper, who had been talking to Ducky overheard his daughters problem. "I could look after them" he suggested with a smile.

Jenny looked to her husband with pleading eyes, he gave her a half nod, "You would that would be a lot of help, thank you" she said with a smile as relief flooded through her.

"Hey they are my grandkids" he said looking at the two children in question. He hoped that getting to know the children and to show he cared would be the key to gain his daughters ultimate forgiveness and his Sin in-laws acceptance.
