Warnings: Tony/OC, fluffy

A/N: I just want to say again that my writing is the way I see the characters and that I might not see your favorite the same way you do.

Glad that everyone liked the baby's name :). It seemed that Tony liked and respected Jackson and I think that this is something he would do, naming his son after him. I know I said that Jack was going to meet the family but my muse went elsewhere. Don't worry... Jack is going to get to meet all of them, but I felt like breaking up the team meeting him a little bit. Hope you enjoy! :)

Tim looked at the small baby in his arms. His little round face was all Tony… despite what his friend said about baby Jack looking like his mother. Jack's oval eyes were open, studying Tim's face as if he was trying to engrain his Uncle McGee into memory.

Jack pulled his tiny feet up to his body, mimicking his position in the womb and sighed. Tim wondered, briefly, if he and Delilah would have their own children someday. With all their wedding plans, they really had not discussed children, but now that Jimmy and Tony had babies… the subject had come up again. Truth was, Tim was terrified of Delilah carrying a baby. It was extremely high risk for a paralyzed woman. He'd brought up the subject of hiring a surrogate but Delilah shot it down. For now they were agreeing to disagree.

"Babies look good on you, Probie," Tony remarked from his corner of the hospital room.

"Not as good as they look on you," Tim joked with a glance at his partner.

Tony chuckled, softly. He had been dozing on and off for the last hour that Tim and Delilah were visiting, not doubt exhausted from all the excitement, but there was a look of contentment on his face. "Yeah… guess I'm all grown up now."

Tim set his eyes on Jack's innocent face. Yeah… Tony was all grown up now as he put it. Not that Tony wouldn't have been able to this years ago. He just hadn't met Leah soon enough. What would have been different if he had met her sooner? Tim thought as Delilah demanded her turn with the baby. He slowly got up and went to her wheel chair, transferring the baby into her waiting arms.

Delilah was a natural with kids and Jack immediately responded to her gentle voice with soft coos of his own. "What a little charmer you are… I know where you get that from sweetie pie."

"We all know where he gets that from," Leah replied with a teasing gaze at her husband.

"Who? Me?" Tony asked, innocently.

Jack, obviously bored with the adults around him, fell asleep in Delilah's arms. It had been a busy day for him too. He'd met his maternal grandparents who had flown in from Boston to stay with them for a few days. And… he had another busy day ahead of him tomorrow. He would be going home and spending his first night in his own room. After that he would be meeting the rest of his family.

Tim and Delilah were the only ones so far that Jack had met besides his grandparents. His aunt Abby had decided that there should be a proper welcome party for the baby at Grandpa Gibbs house. And Gibbs… not usually one for pomp and circumstance… had decided to go along with it. Doing this also allowed Leah to get as much rest as possible while she recovered from child birth. But Tony had been insistent that Tim meet his son and meet his son right away.

"Okay… visiting hours are over. Jack needs to eat dinner," the nurse said coming into the room. She took the baby out of Delilah's arms and waited patiently while Tony shuffled them out of the room. When they were outside Tony shut the door and turned towards Tim.

"Listen… there was a reason we wanted you to come down here and meet Jack first," Tony said, shoving his hands into his jeans' pockets. "Leah asked her sister to be Jack's godmother… and we… I was wondering… if you'd be his godfather, Tim."

"Me?" Tim asked, blinking. "Really? Figured you'd ask Gibbs before me."

Tony chuckled. "Thought about it. But… well… Lauren is Leah's closet sibling and since I don't have a sibling… you seemed like the logical choice."

Tim was at a loss for words. It had been an honor to be Tony's best man, but this was entirely different. He didn't know what to say until Delilah elbowed him, gently in the gut and brought him back to life. "Of course I'll be Jack's godfather!"

He was engulfed into a hug and Tony, with a big grin on his face turned on his heel and went back into Leah's room, and as the door closed, Tim couldn't help but smile as big as his partner.

It was a beautiful fall day when Jack got to go home. Dressed in a small pair of jeans and an Ohio State long sleeve onsie, the newborn slept the entire car ride home from the hospital. And he also wasn't very interested in waking up for his grandparents visit. In fact he didn't wake up until thirty minutes after Katherine and John went back to their hotel for the night.

Tony had gone out to get some take out for dinner and pick up some more diapers. This gave Leah a chance to be with her son, alone, for the very first time. Jack nestled into her arms while she sat on the sofa after changing and feeding him.

"Since it's just you and me for the moment… let's have a little talk," she said to the baby smiling. "Now… your daddy and I… we've never done this before. I mean… yes you have older cousins and I did hold them as babies… but... I'm new to this mommy thing."

Jack mewed and opened his mouth. Leah held her finger out and let the baby grab it. His mother smiled at him and continued, "We're going to have to work together as a team, Jack. You, Daddy and me. Sometimes… we aren't going to get it right. But just remember that we love you." She kissed the baby's soft head of dark brown hair. "Actually, there are a lot of people that love you. And they can't wait to meet you. Jack… you are a very special baby."

Leah watched as her newborn son closed his eyes and fell sound asleep. "It's hard to believe that you're really here and so perfect and that I already love you so much. Funny how I never really believed at love at first sight or fate or all that… until I met Daddy and then had you. To think that I almost didn't go into that coffee shop that morning… if I hadn't there wouldn't be you and that makes me sad."

"Makes me sad too," Tony said softly. "Really sad."

"Let's not be sad then," Leah replied looking up at him.

Tony put their dinner down onto the coffee table and leaned down to kiss her and then kiss Jack's cheek. The baby responded by opening one lazy eye and looking at him before falling back to sleep. Tony chuckled. "Want me to put him in his crib?"

Leah nodded. "Yes, please… my arms are starting to fall asleep."

"Ok here we go, buddy," Tony coaxed, easing Jack out of Leah's arms and into his own. "Time for bed. You've had your dinner, let Mommy eat hers."

She watched him go and then opened up the take out container with her dinner. Tucking her legs underneath her, even if it caused a little bit of soreness, Leah smiled to herself, happy to be able to bend her body again. She closed her eyes for a moment savoring the food and the comfort of her own home. When the sofa shifted next to her she opened her eyes and smiled at Tony. "It feels good to be home."

He kissed her again, letting his fingers run through her hair. "Yes. It does."

"You know… the book says we should sleep when the baby does…"

"I like the sound of that. I'm exhausted."

"Me too."

Leah let him pull her back onto the sofa, wrapping her into his arms. She closed her eyes again, listening to the steady beat of his heart and the evenness of his breathing. In no time both of them had fallen asleep taking advantage of the time Jack was napping… because quite frankly they were going to need as much sleep as they possibly could get.
