She explained her dream making sure to mention she woke up before anything too bad went on. He listened without speaking. He hoped what she was saying was true. For all he knew her dream could've been awful, and the memory could've been her mind trying to make the dream go away, or at least make it easier to get through.

When she finished she waited for him to speak.

"How bad was the dream Jen?" he said at last. She rolled her eyes and exhaled a breath she must have been holding.

"Not as bad as you might expect it to be." She said. Smiling she added "Of course it wasn't full of unicorns and princesses"

He smirked.

At the exact same moment Naomi must have dropped a dish because there was a loud noise causing Jenny to jump and scream loosing her grip of the phone. When she regained herself she picked up the phone. "I'm fine Jethro. I think Naomi decided she likes to scare the h*** out of me while I am on the phone. Now what happened with Kate?"

He explained that she had been on protection duty with a FBI agent. The murderer used a shot-gun to take out the FBI agent. The witness and Kate were rushed to the hospital. The witness died in surgery. Kate lost too much blood and her heart wasn't strong enough to take her into surgery. Tony is there now with Abby. They've known her longest and they're really worried is how he finished.

"What did the doctor say?" Jenny asked.

"I didn't tell the team but doctor said her chances are slight."

"I'll meet you at NCIS unless you are visiting her as well. If she dies or... even if she doesn't, I want this bastard tossed down the drain. I'll call McGee and Ziva."

"No."

"NO?" she nearly shouted.

"Jen... you know damn well I don't want you in the office."

"It isn't about you Jethro it's about her. I am going to do what I need to do."

"I'm on my way to the hospital. So are Ziva and McGee. I can pick you up if you wanna go."

His compromise worked on her and she rolled her eyes once again knowing he had just taken full advantage of her actions. "Yes. But this isn't finished yet."

He hung up.

Only minutes later he arrived at her house and she came outside, getting into his car. Her hair was loose, which he liked. Red curls on her shoulders, dangling down her back. He saw a hair thingy on her wrist and secretly hoped she wouldn't put her hair up.

Her eyes had dark marks under them. Obviously she had not slept well. She stared at him as well. Once upon a time a "Drive by the house to see you" or "A talk" would immediately lead to the bedroom. But even if they were together right now she could hardly be in bed by herself without flashbacks.

Finally he turned away starting up the car.

They drove to the hospital in silence scared of what the other person was going to say.

Before they knew it they were in the waiting room with Tony, Abby, McGee, Ziva, and Ducky. Kate was supposed to go into surgery only an hour ago. Yet the feeling that came with waiting was almost unbearable.

"I don't think Kate would want us upset. You know if she's not okay. So tomorrow either way this... whole thing plays out, I was wondering if you guys wanted to go to see a movie. Kate and I were supposed to see something in theaters so..." Abby said. Usually in hard times Abby was crying. She seemed different now, maybe the reality she could lose her best friend was all to real for her.

McGee agreed right away. He usually listened to Abby however in grief or hurt or happiness he knew he had to be there. Especially since Abby was very emotional. Ziva said she had plans with her father, so she would take a rain check.

Nervous about the scenes of the movie Jenny asked what it was. The movie was a horror movie, not romance. Gibbs looked at her badly not sure himself if she could stand a movie. What if it had scenes that took her back to what she had been through? What if Kate died? It was a risk everyone had to take, except she was the only one who had been raped.

Seeing the mean look from Gibbs she chose to point it out. "If I am allowed to go... then I would love to." she said. Abby smiled. "What about you Gibbs? If mommy is going, shouldn't daddy go?"

Eventually the three of them convinced Gibbs into going. More so Jenny warning him if she broke into crazy mode she would like him to be there. However she said it soft enough only he heard. She didn't want to worry Abby.

When they asked Tony he seemed like he was soulless. At first he couldn't speak. When he eventually did he said it so quietly it brought pain to all of the hearts around. Kate was his friend, more so his little sister. Things he would never tell her...

"I uh... gotta dinner date tomorrow" he lied. "I'll see what I can do."

About three hours later a doctor came out blood on him. Almost everybody stood up, but Tony stood up fastest. The doctor sat down, and then everybody sat down, eager to hear what was going on.

"We did everything we could... but she's not ready for surgery. The bullet and wounds are only going to cause more damage internally. We were unable to contact her sister, however we need a family choice. We can take her into surgery or wait." the doctor explained.

They all nodded. "Wait" Tony said at last and they all agreed. Even the doctor seemed satisfied with the decision. "Anything I can do for you guys?"

They all shook their heads except Jenny. "May I please take a blood test?"

Jethro stared at her. He knew why she was taking this test. Pregnancy. The doctor nodded and let them into a room where a kind nurse took blood. Eventually results came back.

And they showed that Jenny was...

A/N: Sorry for the hold up. I know this chapter was a little Tate-ish but it will become more jibbs very very soon. Sorry for the cliff hanger. Thank you for all my reviewers! I love you guys. RIP Jackie Vance and Eli David. For anyone who saw that episode who cried when Ziva screamed "Abba" when she saw his body! I know I did! Only 2 reviews required for the next chapter since it wasn't very jibbsy. More Jibbs next time, I promise. 143!
