Author's Note: sorry this has been so long! I literalaly had no idea what to write, and then one of my friends mentioned this... So, I hope that you all like it and don't kill me for the dramatic change I am about to bring to NCIS

NCIS – Sorry Isn't in My Vocabulary.

"Abby, calm down," Dinozzo was desperately trying to hold the caffeinated forensic scientist to the ground. Abby let out a squeal as she began to protest even more.

"I can't Dinozzo. They finally come back today," Abby turned to her computer, completely escaping the grip the agent had on her arms. Tony gave a defeated sigh, coming to stand by her.

"When are you going to tell Gibbs?" Tony asked, effectively getting Abby to stop bouncing. Her permanent grin was wiped from her face as she realized the seriousness of his question. She turned away from the machine and locked eyes with him.

"You know he already knows something is up. You know that he has some secret way of knowing," She replied, nervously chewing on her black lip. Tony smiled, rubbing a hand on her shoulder.

"It'll be okay. I mean, he's Gibbs. He'll work it out," Tony smiled, trying to get her to feel a little better. It seemed that when he was trying to get her to stop bouncing, and once she finally did, he wanted the hyper her back. He tilted his head off to the side, a curious aura taking over him.

"Why did you tell me and not Ziva?" He asked with a small, evil glare her way. She laughed, whirling back towards her computer and machines.

"Because, you were the first to pick up at 1 in the morning," She smiled, grabbing her stereo remote and cranking her music. Tony placed his hands at either side of his head, attempting to save himself from a headache. He walked back further into her lab, finding the small silent room she had once locked Palmer and his Father-in-law in. Abby laughed when he waved from the other side, a grin on his face suggesting that he could no longer hear the music.

Abby looked back to the computer, shocked still and silent when the results started beeping across her screen. She dropped the Caf-Pow she had been holding, the cherry liquid splattering all over the floor. Tony rushed out, turning off the music as he did so.

"What is it Abs?" Tony came to her side, his own eyes landing on her monitor. His jaw dropped, his eyes flitting to her.

"What am I going to do, Tony?" Abby asked. She wrapped her arms around herself, leaning against the agent for support. Tony wrapped his arms around the scientist, laying his head on top of hers.

"It'll be okay, Abs. I'm sure of it," Tony offered. He hated seeing her this worried, but he knew that this was something serious and no words of comfort were going to cover it.


"Abs, where are you?" Gibbs came around the corner and walked into Abby's lab. She was under her table, Bert cradled close to her chest and an absolutely somber look on her face. Gibbs walked over to her, crouching in front of her.

"Abs, what's wrong?" He reached over and stroked an idle piece of hair out of her face.

"Nothing. It's nothing," She whispered, trying to convince herself more than him. He eyed her suspiciously, not believing a word she said.

"I know that's a lie, Abs," Gibbs crawled under the table with her, pulling her into his arms with a kiss to her forehead. She cuddled closer, dumping Bert so that she could wrap her arms around him.

"Gibbs, I just don't know what to tell you. I don't know what to say, or what to do," She nuzzled her head against his neck, hiding her face from him. He rubbed her shoulder idly with his thumb, his other hand doing the same to her thigh.

"Well, what's wrong? Just tell me, and maybe I can help," Gibbs looked down to her, worried even further when she didn't even look up. He heard her sigh, her shoulders sagging with the action.

"GibbsI'mpregnantandIdon'tknowwhattodosohelpmeplease!" Came a slurred word from her mouth. Gibbs was taken aback by how fast it was, trying desperately to dissect all the words.

"Whoa, slow down Abs," Gibbs pushed her away from him, cradling her face in his hands and looking her in the eyes. "Can you repeat that, slower this time?" The smile on his face gave Abby some hope, but she still felt dread deep inside of her.

"I'm pregnant. You're the father." Her eyes flitted to him as his hands fell limply into his lap.

"W-What?" Gibbs looked to be completely shocked. His eyes were wide, his eyebrows raised.

"I-I told Tony I shouldn't have told you!" She got up from under the table, running towards the door. Gibbs wrapped his arms around her waist, stopping both of them right by the door.

"Abs, I'm not upset. Why would you think that telling me was a bad thing?" He turned her in his arms, locking eyes with her.

"I don't know. I just thought that I couldn't handle it. I thought that you couldn't, that I mean… I don't know. I just…I just don't know," Abby threw herself against his chest as she started weeping. Gibbs held her closer, kissing her forehead and whispering the words she never thought she would hear from him.

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry," He just kept chanting them; occasionally her name would be mixed in. Abby started to cry harder when that happened, not entirely sure why she was crying then.

This was supposed to be a good moment. This was supposed to make the couple happy, not have the woman end up crying hysterically into the man's arms. This was supposed to be a good time full of squeals and cheers.

But Abby was crying. She was ruining it.

"I'm sorry Gibbs. I shouldn't have ever even told you, I-"

Gibbs kissed her, silencing her as she wrapped her arms around his neck. He pulled her close, and as they kissed he wiped away all of her tears.

"Abs, this is one of the best things that could have happened to me. This means that I get to spend the rest of eternity with you, and whoever is in there," He stroked her stomach under her black t-shirt. She beamed up at him, her smile spreading from ear to ear.

"What? You're serious? You really want to spend your life with me and our kid?" Abby knotted her hands in his hair as she spoke, never wanting to let him go.

"Yes, absolutely," Gibbs nodded, kissing her forehead and hugging her close.

"I'm so sorry-"

"Shh, Sorry isn't in my vocabulary," Gibbs smiled, pulling her into another kiss.

So this was how it was going to be? This was going to be his little piece of heaven on earth? Abby was having his child, and now he knew just how much that meant to him. He knew just how much he missed his family. But somehow, this had made him ready to move on. This had made him able to forgive and forget.

Abby was the one for him. And he knew that their child was going to something special, and definitely unique.
