A/N: Here it is, the final instalment.
Epilogue
"Oh my god they are so tiny." Abby said softly, marvelling at her godchildren.
"They are." Gibbs agreed, before looking at Kate, who sitting on the bed, curled up with Tony, watching as Abby cooed over her little girl, while Dinah commandeered the little boy. "Good job Agent Todd."
Kate smiled at her boss. "Thanks Gibbs."
"Hey! I helped." Tony said, sounding indignant. Everyone looked at him and he ducked his head, looking a little embarrassed. "Only a little, but I still helped."
His wife laughed and pressed a kiss to his cheek. "I suppose you did help a bit." She said and Tony beamed at her.
"You're pretty damn lucky, Tony." Gibbs said. "Another ten minutes and you would have missed it."
Tony laughed. "Yeah, well I would have if it wasn't for McGee." He said, looking at the younger Agent.
McGee had taken it upon himself to wait for Tony at the airport, taking advantage of his Federal Agent status to get the man to the hospital in time.
"Thanks Tim." Kate said, smiling gratefully at him. He blushed slightly and ducked his head, mumbling something. She could see the smile on his face though.
"So, have you decided on names for the little ones?" Ducky asked.
Kate and Tony smiled. "We have." Tony said, reaching towards his daughter. Abby pouted slightly before handing the baby back to Tony, while Kate managed to wrangle her son away from his grandmother. "This is Lillian Dinah DiNozzo." He said, smiling at Dinah, who looked like she was about to cry. "But we're gonna call her Lily."
"Oh wow. Lily!" Abby squealed.
"And this," Kate said, holding her son close to her "...is Noah Anthony DiNozzo."
Everyone agreed that they were perfect names for the children. Dinah finally remembered that her daughter and daughter-in-law's were in D.C. and hurried off to call them.
"So we've already asked Abby to be godmother." Kate began, "But we wanted to ask you Gibbs, if you would consider being godfather."
Gibbs stared at them for a few seconds, his eyes shining slightly. "Uh…I'd be honoured." He said, before clearing his throat a few times. "Guess this means I'm going to have to work harder to make sure you two don't kill yourselves."
They all laughed.
((((((((((((((((((((())))))))))))))))))
It was hours later after everyone had finished visiting, that Tony and Kate finally got some alone time with their children.
"I can't believe they're here." Kate said softly, as she cuddled her son close to her, while Tony gently rocked Lily backwards and forwards.
"I know, right." He said with a smile, looking between the twins. "Do you want to switch?"
Kate nodded with a smile. "Ok."
They spent a couple of minutes trying to figure how they were going to do this before Tony finally said, "You know what, I'm good."
Kate nodded in agreement, smiling up at her husband. "We'll figure it out."
Tony returned the smile, as he and Lily joined Kate and Noah on the bed. "We will."
The pair shared a gentle kiss before turning their attention to the twins. They had no idea what the future held, but as a team they'd make it through anything.
THE END.
(((((((((((((((((())))))))))))))))
Wow, it's finally finished. I started this back in 06, 07 and now after six years it's done. I never thought this day would come.
I have no plans for a sequel, as I have a few other fics that I need to focus on before I even consider coming back to NCIS.
Thanks to everyone who reviewed, favourite, followed and whatever I have forgotten. Thank you!
