AU: Glad your all enjoying the story. Saissa: Kelly just wants to have a bit of fun at poor Tony's expense, she's definitely not interested in him! With Abby, I thought about that, but Abby's still kind of in shock at the "confused and possible bitter looks in these two new peoples faces", so she's giving them time before asking her questions. Enjoy the latest chapter :)

"Ahh, Ahh, Ahh" was all he could say.

"DiNozzo! Do you or do you not think she's attractive?" Gibbs barked whilst smirking.

"Kel, I think he needs to know about Ian" Nix said smiling casually.

"Leave Ian out of this Nix" she said, still smiling.

"Who's Ian?" Gibbs asked turning to face them both, with a look Kelly had seen on his face before, it resembled the same one he had when he found out that a boy had stolen her Barbie doll when she was 7, she smiled again.

"Ian, the last guy that started to flirt with Kelly, even asked her out for a simple coffee & then never followed through." Nix said plainly. Tony was looking worried, Gibbs was still staring at him, but also concentrating on what his son was saying.

"Tony, do you know who his next date was with? (Tony shook his head) An ER nurse! Needed to get a bumped nose fixed" Nix smirked & walked away from Tony, who now looked a little more than worried. Gibbs was just smiling, which also made Tony nervous.

Gibbs spoke next, slowly "Tony, you flirt with my daughter again & I'll knock you all the way into next year. You say that she isn't attractive and you'll be on date with that ER nurse Ian saw, we clear?"

"Crystal boss!" Tony said confused, what did he mean, not flirt, but think she is attractive? Well she was, so that wasn't hard.

Gibbs was still staring at Tony, Kelly started to feel sorry for him, so decided to help him out.

"Everyone can relax, I'm not attracted to you Tony" Kelly smiled & moved to a little away from them.

"Your not attracted to me?" Tony asked carefully.

"Nope, don't tend to be attracted to guys who flirt with every girl that walks past, kinda figured they might all have ended up dead, and I didn't want to be responsible for imaginary mass deaths whilst growing up" She smiled as she looked at her father.

This was music to Gibbs ears, his daughter had some decent concepts about dating & didn't fall for just anyone. He breathed an internal sigh of relief, as he smiled at Tony and gave him a gentle double tap on his face before moving away.

Tony gathered himself, wanting to change the subject he remember that Abby came into the squad room with news.

"Hey Abs, what was the break you got in the case?" He asked.

All eyes were now on Abby, except Kelly's. She had backed away from her father a few steps & was leaning against Ziva's desk for support. To Tony, it looked like she was bracing herself for something.

"Oh, yea! I managed to get the bar footage cleaned up a bit, I think we might be able to use it to identify the woman" Abby said pleased with herself, opening up the file on the plasma.

"McGee fast forward a bit, we get the best angle in the 54th minute.." Abby began to say.

Kelly got all her courage together, this was what she came for, it was going to be the hardest thing she's done in a long time & she just didn't know how either of them would react, but here goes nothings she thought.

"You don't need to look at the footage…. It was me" She said calmly but hesitantly, looking at her father, he's eyes went as wide as they could possibly be, his face was in total shock.

Everyone else was probably mirroring the shock her father showed, but she wasn't looking anywhere else, just at him.

Gibbs went up to his daughter, but didn't touch her, he just looked at her and realised that what happened with Rooney, must be linked with her, it was too much of a coincidence for them to show up now, but what was the connection? He just waited for her to talk, he wouldn't push her, he'd wait until she was ready, after all, she offered up the fact that it was her in the bar, without them having to run the tape, so she obviously was expecting this.

"Major Rooney called me yesterday around 16:00 & asked me to meet him to discuss a personal matter, said it had to do with Megan and her future. I told him I couldn't see him yesterday because of work, but he insisted, so I said I would call him when I was done & we could meet up." Kelly said calmly & quietly.

"That's why you pulled out of the sleepover at BAC?" Nix asked.

"No, I already told Brumz.. Mike Brummer, 2 days ago that I wouldn't be able to make it due to the Ancelotti case" Kelly replied looking at her brother.

She could see her father's facial expression change, so she answered the unasked question.

"Lawyer, but can we talk about my chosen profession another time?" Kelly said, knowing full well how he disliked lawyers. She could see him swallow a big dose of air & nodded.

"I finally finished work at about 22:30, called him & we agreed to meet at a local Georgetown bar. Got there around 23:00." Again Kelly saw a look in her father's eyes, so she answered another unasked question & continued.

"I'm not 8, I'm an adult, I go to bars & I can handle myself….. We chatted about Megan for a few minutes, the Major had told me he wanted my help with his divorce & a new will, he'd asked me to bring the papers. We discussed the matter, I filled in the paperwork, got a witness, thought we were done"

"Why'd he want a divorce?" Ziva asked.

"According to the paperwork filed with the courts, it reads irreconcilable differences. He said that he just wasn't getting along with Lynda anymore & that he felt she wasn't the right influence for Megan & wanted her to have positive female influences in her life. It went hand in hand with the new will. It gives full custody of Megan to the Major's sister & all death benefits to go to Megan & her upbringing. Said he wanted to make sure that if something was to happen to him that she would be looked after properly by someone he trusted."

"Wasn't it weird that he wanted to discuss it at such a late hour?" Tony asked gently.

"Not as weird as you would think, we often meet clients out of normal hours, they have work and sometimes can't get the time off to come see us. Though, that was probably the latest one I've done, but as it was Megan's dad, I agreed, she's a good kid." Kelly answered, shooting a glance to Tony.

Her fathers eyes hadn't left her. "Anyway, I thought we were done so I got up to go, but he grabbed me by the arm & said – I know who you are, who you really are – he even said my name….. my full name." Kelly said looking at her father.

She saw Tony shoot McGee a look that showed his interest in her full name. "A full name you will never hear DiNozzo!" Kelly barked. She hated it.

"I asked him how he knew it & me. He said… " Kelly hesitated, her father took her by the shoulder & rubbed it as if to say its ok. "…he said he was sorry, very sorry but he was the one who helped fake your death to us, and our deaths to you." Kelly said looking up at her dad, doing her best to hold back the flood of tears that wanted to come.

AU: Who was Rooney helping? and how will everyone react?
