Hey all. Next installment is here…

Disclaimer: I don't own either show. If I did then Kate and Tony would be together. Derr!

"Kate," Robert nodded at her. "Lovely to see you again," he greeted her in his deep voice. He stood looming over a small blonde girl he had his arm around. "This is my fiancée Amy."

Amy smiled at Kate and said hello in a light, bubbly voice. She was wearing jeans and a cardigan and, to Kate, seemed relaxed and happy as she held Robert around the waist.

"Nice to meet you," Kate smiled back in return and moved over to wrap her arms around Tony. His arm automatically moved around her shoulders. Sure this felt really strange, but she had to admit it wasn't a bad feeling. "This is my boyfriend, Tony," she smiled up at him and he shot her a trademark DiNozzo grin. Boyfriend - yeah it definitely had a ring to it.

"Aunty Katie!" Ally and the boys came running into the room and attached themselves to her legs.

Tony watched Kate with the kids. A side of her he really saw. He could have watched her forever.

Well, if it weren't for Marie anyway.

"Anthony, taste this for me," she said excitedly as she shoved a wooden spoon to his lips. He told her truthfully that it was delicious. Ray entered the room then and moved to taste the sauce himself. She slapped his hand away quickly.

"No tasting before dinner!" she snapped at him.

He was shocked. "But Ma –"

"No buts, Raymond. Go watch TV with your father," she dismissed him with a wave of her hand.

He was always the one to do the taste-testing! What was going on? Dejectedly, he made his way back to the couch with Robert.

Robert laughed a mocking laugh.

"What?" Raymond tried to look unfazed.

"A new favourite," he smirked. "You just stepped down a notch on the ladder."

"Yeah well I'm surprised you can even see the ladder!" he shot back. But this didn't perturb Robert a bit.

"Now, now Raymond, I'm going to let that slide – it's just the green-eyed monster talking," he grinned.

"You two Nancies shut it! I'm trying to watch the game," Frank put in.

"I am not jealous!" Ray defended, looking slightly distraught.

"You gotta show them whose boss," Frank joined in the conversation when the ads came on. "Show 'em all where they stand and, more importantly, where you stand. I didn't raise a couple of girls."

"Dad –"

"Marie! Make me a sandwich!" he hollered.

"No Frank. You're getting nothing before dinner! Now go and get young Tony's bags out of the car!" Came her reply.

Frank shrugged, stood up, buttoned his pants and headed for the door.

More soon! Promise! Now review! Pretty please:)
