Last chapter
Michelle followed his orders blindly and got into the car. It was not even fifteen minutes later when they were already leaving... They were going to his place and Michelle was seeing a huge fight coming...
Next Chapter
Michelle saw agent Gibbs house it seems cozy somehow.
"Here we are." Gibbs said. He opened his door and led her to the inside of the living room. "Mike we are back! I hope you cooked something!" Mike appeared from the kitchen covered with flour from the head to the feet. Michelle couldn't control her laugh when she saw him.
"Seeing something funny, Asian girl? Huh? Tell me? Do you?" Mike said with an almost dead glare. But before Michelle even have the chance to argue and Gibbs the chance to ask for what's going on Mike noticed the child on Michelle's arms. "Hey buddy! How are you? DO you remember uncle Mike?" he said as he went closer to Michelle and took the child to his arms. Jimmy almost immediately reacted to his presence, "Of course you remember uncle Mike. You like uncle Mike, Don't you?" he said as he was making faces to Jimmy who was smiling soundly.
Gibbs was looking stunned at his old friend his mind went immediately to his and Jenny's child. It was the second they had lost... The first one was a girl, he had no idea the gender of their second child but something was telling him it was a boy. Sadness came over his head as he thought of the family h could have if he wasn't that idiot. If he was listening to her, if he had gone after her all those years ago, now they could be married, maybe their daughter would have been able to see the outside world, maybe she could have a chance to grown up, to be a wonderful young lady like her sister, like Kelly, if he wasn't an idiot maybe the man who was making faces to a young baby could be himself and the baby might be his and Jenny's son. But no he couldn't have that now because he was a coward and he didn't followed her, he didn't stopped her from going to L.A. Alone. He wasn't able to hear her callings for help. He disappoint the only person in the whole world who he should let down or disappoint.
"You two, three, sit down now! And tell me everything!' he barked to them trying to get out of his head the image of a mini him and a mini Jenny playing in the back yard. It was painful enough to know that he let down two children and if you count the fact that all those years he believed Kelly was dead and didn't check it, he let down three children, HIS children, he let down his children and their mothers because he let them get killed... No, he got them killed, he got them killed for not being there, he wasn't there to protect them...
"Well probie you have read the file, do you need any more info?" Mike said as he had still in his arms little Jimmy
"Yeah Mike, and let's start with the how on earth Michelle is alive when I shoot her, and let's get to the next two questions first who's the baby's father and second how in hell are you standing here in frond of me when I was the one who killed you!" Gibbs was almost crazy.
"Agent Gibbs, please, can you relax. I will explain everything." Michelle said really worried that Gibbs will blow or something...
"All this time I was in witnesses protection, the scene which you took part, that supposed death of me was all an act I faked it, well not alone, but you get the main point. I was wearing a vest. The bullets didn't hit me, but they hit the blood I had stored under my shirt. The little bags blow and it seemed to be like I was bleeding... As about your second question the answer is that I was pregnant when I staged the whole thing. Trust me I had to get away to save my life and my child's life. He was an unborn baby, it wasn't his fight to give he is still an innocent soul and whatever have done in the past must not come and haunt him, that's why I have done all those. Not to save my own ass, but for him. And for his father, I didn't want him to get hurt, he didn't deserve it. He is far too good for it." Michelle had tears in her eyes, every time she was talking about Jimmy the same thing... she was in tears...
"Well, very special agent Lee I think that probie here wants to know the name of the father, and not to hear you rumpling about the difficulties and the unfair of your life... Give him a name!" Mike said as he laid the baby on the self made bad he had made on Gibbs armchair. He had placed the armchair facing the wall and stuffed pillows between the wall and the baby. Michelle turned and throw a death glare to Mike, Gibbs on the other side looked at Mike like he was already dead.
"What?" Mike said "That's what you want to know, and trust me we have more important things that the sad story of the very special agent Lee here!" Mike said and left the room smiling to himself.
"Well Mike is right I do want to know the name." Gibbs said
"Are you sure you want to know?" Michelle said looking at her sleeping son.
"If I didn't want to I wouldn't have asked." Gibbs said to Michelle. He put his hand on her chin and raised her face there where he could see the tears into her eyes.
"It's Jimmy, Jimmy Palmer." Michelle wasn't able to hide her tears anymore she let them flow freely. Gibbs hugged the young woman and let her cry on his shoulder. He was stunned Jimmy Palmer a father? Sadness had taken over his heart completely now. Jimmy Palmer in few days would have the woman of his life, his son and a little girl which was like daughter to him Amanda Michelle's sister From nothing he would have a family to wait for him at home and the only thing he would have was an empty house with a boat in the basement. He might have his daughter Kelly, if she was willing to forgive him for not looking for her all those years. He could have her but for how long she would stay with him? A year maybe two or three, then she will find a boyfriend, a fiance, a husband and he will be alone again. She was a grown woman she might already have a boyfriend or a fiance. If she ever welcome him back to her life she would defiantly have her own life to live. He would be alone after the end of the mission just as he was when this mission had started.
Mike was staring them both from his spot behind the kitchen door. He let a deep sign at the image in frond of him. It has taken almost all of his self control not to barge inhere and tell him right there and then the whole truth, the truth about his lady director about his daughter, about his two and half son, he wanted to tell him about his little boy, he wanted to tell him about his habits about the how much he looked like him. Like father like son, Jenny usually said. And he was absolutely sure this was true. Little Jake had him father's guts. He had strong will, and strong lungs as he remembered from the first months of his life...
FLASHBACK.
"What I am going to do Mike? He is so little, so vulnerable I don't even know how to hold him! What kind of mother am I?" Jenny said with the tears steaming down her face. Jake was finally sleeping peacefully after two Jenny had feet him. when he was hungry he wanted to be feed immediately, when he wanted a hug, he wasn't willing to wait long, when he needed to be changed he wanted to be changed the soonest.
"You'll do grate, don't worry. It takes time until a woman get used to the idea of being mother, and most women have their pregnancy to get used to the idea, you hadn't, you spent the first two months of your pregnancy fearing that you might get killed by one of your own people, and the next five in a coma. And suddenly you woke up seven months pregnant and with no one to support you, or mare likely, without the father of the child there to support you. You woke up and you had to deal with the fact that you came close not only to lose your son but to die too. I understand it's hard, but you are not a bad mother. Kelly proves that. She was broken when you two met, and look at her now, she is a strong independent woman, a federal agent, planing on getting married. You made her like that, you made her from scratch, you did that no one else. Relax and you will learn. Your mother instinct will take over eventually, until then you have us to help you." Mike said to her as he took her into his arms, he heard her sobs and he felt her tears staining his shirt. She was crying more that it was normal but Mike had guest it was because of her high levels of hormones. He also knew the only way to fix it was to call down there Gibbs, he would calm her down, calm his son down, and eventually calm him down...
END OF FLASHBACK
Kelly was sitting in the living room, Ziva was in the kitchen and Ducky had gone for shopping. She was reading the book she had lend from Ziva when she saw her cell phone vibrating. She had a text message from her mom. All done with Michelle. Now it's your turn. Ari and the twins will be there. Move into Ducky's place. Kelly smiled satisfied with the information she took.
"Who was on the phone?" Ziva asked as she came from kitchen.
"From the mission. Tomorrow we need to move into Ducky's house, we will have company. SecNav will brief you tomorrow morning." Kelly said trying to make it seem simple.
"Oh great an other agent!" she said.
"Yes, but trust me you are going to like tomorrow's meeting" Kelly said with her eyes shining. Yeah one thing for sure she would enjoy the meeting!
Tony and Tali were eating breakfast together, she and Ziva were so alike. Their faces were similar, but the eyes were just the same. Same warm brown color same fire in them.
"Tony I want to ask you a question. How are you with kids?" Tali asked knowing who was going to be the next agent.
"Well it depends, usually I don't face many problems but there are always exceptions to confirm the rules." Tony said
"OK, because the next agent will have with her her daughter. Her three years old daughter."
"When is she coming?" Tony asked
"The day after tomorrow." Tali said. They ate the rest of their breakfast in silence. They hadn't many things to say, or more likely there were not so many things they were allowed to talk about.
"Paula do you want cornflakes or pancakes?" Abby said from the kitchen to Paula who was sitting in the leaving room.
"Well whatever you want Abby, I eat both." she said "By the way were is Timothy?"
"He went for shopping. He will be back at any minute." Abby answered
"Well are the two of you together?" Paula said and she heard the spoon to leave Abby's hand and land on the floor.
"What made you thing that Timmy and I are more than friends?" Abby said with her voice unusually high.
"Well the fact that the two of you were snogging into the car yesterday at Norfolk." Paula said as a matter of fact.
"Well we are together, but you can't tell anyone! Please we still are trying to see if we can have a chance to work this out. We don't want to rush things you get me?" she said.
"I do Abby, but if you want my opinion, I think the two of you will be just great! You are mend to be together." she said looking into Abby's eyes.
Michelle's sobs had calm down and Gibbs let her free from his arms.
"Thank you." she said with her voice barely above a whisper.
"you are welcomed. Missy." Gibbs said to her with a smile...
