Chapter 10

3 months, later in 2013.

McGee smiles as he watches Tony and Ziva, through MTAC, as they arrest the navy marine who was threatening his best friend and his children. He and Emmeline had told Aurelia and the boys the truth about her birth. She had been shocked at first but had been okay with it, since she'd grown up believing McGee was her dad. The boys refused to change their feelings towards their sister. Emmeline stood beside McGee, in MTAC, a gentle smile on her face. He wrapped an arm around her sweetly.

"We're all safe, Em. All of us." McGee said.

"Promise?" She asked.

"Promise." He smiled remembering their MIT days. She smiled too as their best friends from then came to join them in MTAC accompanied by Gibbs and the team.

Now stood four 30-something friends with their arms around each other watching the large screen with a smile on each of their faces.

THE END.
