Saturday morning Gibbs woke up early and loaded his and Tony's bags into the car. He had packed for himself and Tony the night before. Most things were gong in the trunk. Except for a bag of snacks and Tony's backpack. He quietly stuck a trash bag into the glove box. Just in case Tony had an accident. So that he wouldn't have to sit on a wet seat. He could careless about the car's upholstery. He just wanted to be sure that his boy was as comfortable as possible.

"Wake up sleepy head!" Gibbs called outside of Tony's room.

"Boss it's Saturday!" Tony giggled.

"I know but we are going to Stillwater. Remember?" Gibbs explained.

"Oh yeah!" Tony cried.

"Are you excited to see Grandpa Jack?" Gibbs asked.

"Yes" Tony replied.

"Good because he can't wait to see you." Gibbs replied.

"We should jump out and surprise him." Tony replied.

"That's not a very good idea Tony." Gibbs replied.

"Why?" Tony asked.

"Because my dad is very old and if we scare him. It could give him a heart attack." Gibbs explained.

"Like Ducky?" Tony asked.

"Yes like Ducky." Gibbs replied.

One hour later Gibbs and Tony were on the road to Stillwater. Tony held Jack Bear in his arms and looked out the passenger side window as Gibbs drove. Tony hadn't been to Stillwater since before his attack and Gibb was worrying about how the residents of the town would react. Cards and gifts had come in from people in the town. During Tony's hospitalization and Jack had hung a sign in the store. That gave places that people could go to watch Tony's progress. However knowing about and praying for a person with a disability was different then seeing one face to face.

"Will Grandpa Jack like Jack Bear?" Tony asked.

"Yes he will." Gibbs replied.

"Good. Cause I love them both." Tony replied.

"I know you do." Gibbs replied.

"I wish you're mom was still alive." Tony said.

"I do too." Gibbs replied.

"Would she like me?" Tony asked.

"Of course she would. She would love you." Gibbs replied.

"Even after what happened?" Tony asked.

"Even after what happened." Gibbs assured.

The rest of the drive was relatively quiet. Tony asked a few more questions about Stillwater and Gibbs's childhood and Gibbs answered them the best he could. Stillwater had changed a lot since he was a kid but people were still fairly closed-minded and prejudiced. At least if people got too abusive towards Tony. Jack would intervene. Gibbs parked his car outside of his dad's store. Tony held on to his backpack as tightly as he could as the walked towards the front door. Sensing his nervousness Gibbs allowed Tony to ring the bell.

"Leroy! Tony!" Jack cried pulling his son and grandson into a gentle hug.

"Hi dad." Gibbs replied.

"Grandpa Jack!" Tony cried excitedly.

"How are my boys doing?" Jack asked.

"Great" Gibbs replied.

"Really good. Cause I getta see you." Tony replied.

"I am glad to see you too Tony. How are you doing? Have you learned anything new since the last time I saw you?" Jack asked.

"I can tie my shoes now. Sometimes Gibbs has to make the ears but I can do it." Tony replied happily.

"That's excellent." Jack replied.

"He's really improving dad." Gibbs assured.

"Come on in." Jack replied.

"Actually dad I missed my run this morning. Would you mind watching Tony for a while?" Gibbs asked.

"No problem Leroy." Jack replied.

"Thanks so much dad." Gibbs replied.

"It's no problem really Leroy. I know how hard stressful things have been for you since Tony's accident." Jack explained.

"It hasn't been easy but Tony is so sweet. Taking care of him is no problem." Gibbs replied.

"Enjoy yourself Leroy." Jack called as Gibbs turned back down the driveway.

Tony was lying on the floor in the back of Jack's store. He was pretending that Spider-Man was fighting one of the Joe's that Abby Borin had got for him. Jack had promised to take him around Stillwater. As soon as LJ Moore arrived. Tony had only met LJ once in the hospital but he really liked him. He told the best stories about when Boss was little and the adventures that Jack and him had gotten in when they were kids. Plus he didn't get mad when Tony giggled when he heard his name. With any luck cool he would arrive soon and Gibbs would get back and want to go exploring with Jack and him. Tony heard the door open and shut. Jack walked in and rubbed his hair.

"Hi Jack!" Tony cried.

"Hi Tony." Jack replied.

"Can we go yet?" Tony asked.

"Not yet LJ still isn't here. I just came in to rest." Jack replied.

"Wanna play with my action figures? GI Joe hurt a Marine and Spider-Man is taking him to jail. Cause he works for NCIS. Like Gibbs." Tony explained.

"Well that sounds like a lot of fun but I need to sit down and be quiet for a while." Jack replied.

"Alright. I'll keep playing." Tony replied.

"Can you be really quiet and let me know if you hear somebody come in?" Jack requested.

"Yes sir." Tony replied.

"LEROY!" Jack called.

"No Jack. Gibbs isn't here." Tony replied.

"No" Jack gasped before collapsing to the ground.

"Jack get up." Tony pleaded.

Gibbs jogged around the corner on to Main Street. His heart dropped to the ground when he saw the whole town gathered around outside of Jack's store. The only time that everybody gathered like this. Was when something bad had happened. His gut had been churning all morning. Why did he leave Tony in the first place? He was filled with relief when he saw Tony sitting on the stoop. The feeling was gone as quickly as it came. When he saw the look of grief on LJ Moore's face.

"LJ what happened?" Gibbs asked.

"Jack fell down." Tony muttered.

"What?" Gibbs asked.

"He won't get up." Tony replied.

"LJ?" Gibbs asked.

"Your dad had a heart attack Leroy." LJ explained.

"What? No, how is he?" Gibbs asked.

"It doesn't look good." LJ whispered.

"Jack won't wake up." Tony whimpered.
