Leroy Jethro Gibbs ws a strong, open minded, confident and independent man and Agent. He had seen the brutality that humans were capable of doing, he had seen it all. Nothing could ever bring him out of his way - until Tony DiNozzo came along. The kiss at the park and the car... Gibbs was confused about his feelings. He couldn't deny that Tony was very attractive and a damn good kisser. Coming home last night was like relieve: Lory wasn't there. Seems she was giving her lover some time to calm down. Gibbs didn't sleep well tho, he woke up numerous times because of wet dreams - of Tony.
He sat at his desk reading files from a cold case he was working on but all he could think of was Tony. Gibbs could feel the desire to call him so he could hear his voice. He could feel the need to meet him, so he could see him. He could feel the want to touch him, only to feel the younger man's skin and touch. Sighing, he got up to visit his good friend Ducky for a talk.
"Hey Duck," Gibbs greeted as he enters autopsy.
"Jethro, what brings you down here?" Ducky smileed.
"You have some time for me?" Gibbs asked.
"Of course, I do. Is this about one of the cold cases you're working on?" Ducky asked.
"No," Gibbs answered, taking a deep breath he continued, "it's personal, Duck."
"Okay, then I suggest we go to my office for some privacy. I take it you had that talk with Lory?" Ducky lead him to the small office.
"I did talk with her but that's not what I want to talk about. Do you remember Tony DiNozzo?" Gibbs asked his friend, hoping the examiner would remember.
"The young man who was almost beaten to death by his husband? Didn't you take care of his children while he was at the hospital to heal and recover?" Ducky checked and at Gibbs' nod he knew he was right. "Of course I remember. Did you hear from him?"
"Yeah... Duck, he kissed me. Yesterday at the park. Later when I drove him and the kids home we kissed again. Can't stop thinking about him." Gibbs told his friend.
"Oh." was all Ducky could say. He was quite surprised about this. Finally recovering from the shock he continued, "You seem to like this young man, don't you? I remember that he's indeed a very fine looking lad. Are you in love with him, Jethro?"
"No... I'm not in love but I do have feelings for him, like a crush or so. Duck, I'm in a relationship so why do I want to go to Tony and be with him?" Gibbs asked desperately and confused.
"Well Jethro, you are not really happy with Lory anymore and you told me yourself that you don't even know if you're still in love with her. It seems to me that young Tony has found a way to your heart. If you were single I would tell you to just enjoy it and see where those new feelings take you but you're not single. You're with Lory and you two are expecting a child so you need to figure out what you want - fight for your relationship with Lory or make a new start." Ducky told him.
"There's the problem, Duck. I'm so overwhelmed by my feelings that I can't think straight. I don't know what it is that I want. It's complicated, it's a huge mess." Gibbs sighed.
"That is true indeed. When is Jackson going to arrive?"
"Tomorrow in the morning. I'll pick him up from the airport. I'll talk to him. Maybe it will help me to clear my head."
"Sounds like a good idea to me, Jethro." Ducky said and pat his good friend on the back.

"You've been quiet, Leroy. Everything ok?" Jackson Gibbs asked his son.
"Not really, dad." Gibbs said but stayed silent otherwise and focused on the traffic.
When the two men arrived at Gibbs' house, they could see a group of children and a man waiting at the front door. Jackson was quite confused but could see the smile on his son's face when he spotted the family.
Gibbs literally jumped out of the car, much to Jackson's surprise. The children were now running towards Gibbs - screaming his name and looking happy and excited. When Gibbs and the kids finally came together they hugged each other. Gibbs was trying to listen to them but five children talking all at once was quite loud. He couldn't help but smile at the group. Looking at Tony, who was still standing by the door, his smile grew even bigger.
Charly and her siblings were playing in Gibbs' garden while the Agent introduced Tony to his father Jackson and three adults went to take a seat in the backyard. Tony wanted to invite Gibbs to Charly's concert at the center where they were currently staying at but with Jackson being there, Tony invited both.
Later in the Evening
"This Tony is a nice man. And Charlotte and her siblings are very adorable and lovely. How do you know them?" Jackson asked his son while enjoying a delicious steak.
"Met them on a case couple of years ago. Dad, there's something I need to tell you." Gibbs got serious.
"I'm all ears, son." Jackson wondered what his son had to tell him.
"Lory's pregnant. I'm going to be a dad and." Gibbs told his father.
"I'm... I'll be a grandfather?" Jackson asked with tears filled eyes. "Is that real, Leroy?"
"Yes, dad. It's real. Lory's in her fourth month." The Agent told his father with a smile.
"Leroy, son... I'm so happy about the baby. Always hoped you'd make me a grandfather. That's great news. But please tell me you're not going to marry Lory." Jackson spoke. The older Gibbs didn't like the woman his son had been dating for the last couple of years.
"Lory wants to but I don't. Honestly, it's complicated at the moment. Don't even know if I still love her, dad. I know I want the baby but I'm not sure if Lory and I have a future together." Gibbs admitted. Neither men heard Lory entering the house.
"I understand. You know I never liked her. But a baby is changing everything. You and her need to discuss it all." Jackson told his son.
"I know that. Tried already but she has other plans. Dunno how things will go on. And then there's Tony..." Gibbs said but Jackson interrupted him.
"Tony? The Tony from earlier? What's with him?" Jackson asked confused.
"Think I'm falling for him and I know he has feelings for me. He kissed me and I kissed back. Can't stop thinking about him. It's confusing since I've never been interested in a man before but I really, really like him, Dad." Gibbs admitted.
"I like him, too. He's nice and a good father." Jackson said with a wink. "Wouldn't mind you dating him."
"What?" Gibbs asked shocked, with wide eyes and his mouth hanging open. "Dad, I just told you that I'm interested in a guy and you're totally fine with that?"
"Of course I am! Leroy, did you forget that I raised you to be open minded and accepting? I want you to be happy and to be with someone who's good for you and I'm sorry to tell you again but Lory isn't. She's selfish, manipulating and a control freak, worse than you are. Tony is a father - he has patience, is understanding and as you said, he likes you. And you like him. I wouldn't mind you dating him and getting to know him better. You fall for the person and not the gender, son." Jackson told him. "So tell, are you in love with Tony?" Jackson asked with a smile and wink.
"God dad! No, not in love but I'm slowly falling for him." Gibbs said chuckleing and suddenly the two men could hear a woman yell at them - Lory.
"What the hell am I hearing here, Lee? If you won't stay with me and marry me, or if you leave me for this Tony I swear you'll never ever see your daughter, Leroy." Lory screamed.
"Lory, please calm down. We can talk about everything." Gibbs tried to calm her down but failed.
"There is nothing to talk about. Think about what I just said. If you want your daughter, then you will marry me. If you won't, your daughter will never meet her real father. It's up to you." Lory said and left the house, slamming the door shut.
"FUCK", Gibbs and Jackson said at the same time.
Bad Lory! She's cruel, isn't she? Told you she would cause lots of drama. Now the questions are: What is Gibbs going to do? What about Tony? Is there still a chance for our two men?
