Chapter 25
As soon as Jenny had been wheeled away to the surgery room Gibbs went into panic mode, he called Abby and told her what was going in and before he knew it they were all there sitting with him in the waiting room.
"They are going to be fine" Jack assured his son noting the worried and glum look in his face.
"I know" Gibbs nodded to his father with a weak smile "Thanks for coming guys" he said appreciatively looking at his family and friends who were surrounding him.
"Blood or not we are family" Ziva stated with a smile from her place next to Tony and everyone nodded in agreement.
Gibbs then looked over to door just as Dr Fields walked in still dressed in her doctor scrubs and cap, Gibbs got up and approached her "How are they doc?" he asked, his heart beating a mile a minute with worry.
"The babies are being taken to intensive care, they are a little underdeveloped, we'll no more in a couple of weeks and we've had to sedate Jenny so her body can cope, when she does wake up you can excite her too much" Lucy continued taking off her scrub cap letting the blond hair free.
"Can I see them?" Gibbs asked knowing that if he had seen Jenny and their new born children that his heart and mind would be more at rest, he would be able to see with his own eyes that they were ok.
"Jenny is back in her room, follow the signs to intensive care to get to the babies, there incubators will be labelled" She smiled before leaving Gibbs alone.
Gibbs then walked back to group and repeated everything the doctor had said to him to them and they decided to go home after he promised her would call them in the morning and tell them everything was ok.
Now he had to choose who to see first the twins or Jenny, he then settled on the babies first then Jenny knowing she would most likely be asleep.
So he made his way to the intensive care area and then went to the babies. He looked around for a moment before seeing the two incubators labelled 'Baby girl Gibbs' and 'Baby boy Gibbs', he approached the see through boxes and noted the bright pink body's, they were tiny, Gibbs new that they were early and a little premature but he hadn't quite realised how much and they both had wires coming out and off of them.
But neither the less Gibbs couldn't help the emotion that stirred in him, he was a father, he was their father, they were his little boy and girl, half him half the women he loved.
He looked down first at his son, he smiled, the boy's face was all scrunched up and he laid curled in a ball. "I know you can make it, be strong little man" he whispered in a soft voice, he wondered what colour eyes the little boy had but he couldn't tell as his eyes were still shut.
Gibbs sighed before turning to the little girl, he noted that she was born a minute after the brother, making her the little girl, his little girl, "Hey sweetie" he mumbled looking down at her a smiling, she was a little smaller than her brother but he knew in his hear that none the less that she was going to be a fighter, both of them were just like their parents.
"Me and mommy love both of you" he stated with a smile looking at the both of the babies.
"Sir you're going to need to leave, we'll tell you if there is any change" a nurse approached Gibbs and assured him she would look after them. "And you can have these pictures to pin up in your wife's room" she added handing him two Polaroid pictures of the twins to him. Gibbs nodded before giving his children a quick glance before walking out.
On his way to Jenny's room he noted the gift shop was still open, he thought he might buy the twins a teddy or a toy. After looking around for a while he chose a cuddly lion for the boy and a unicorn for the girl.
After paying for them he walked back into Jenny's room, he smiled at the sight of her sleeping form, her red hair contrasting with the pale covers. Even though she had been through hell she still looked utterly gorgeous to him.
He walked over to the bedside cabinet and propped up the pictures against the wall making sure Jenny could see it even if she was laying down, he pressed a kiss to his fingers before pressing them against the picture. "Mummy's going to love you two" he stated one hundred per cent sure.
Gibbs then walked over to Jenny's side "Our little boy and girl are doing fine" he whispered before placing a kiss to her forehead, he couldn't wait for Jenny to be awake enough to meet their children.
