Dear Tim,

Abby is driving us both insane with wedding plans. For something that was supposed to be simple, it feels like we are planning the invasion at Normandy. But she means well, so we sigh and nod. Did I tell you we are holding it at Ducky's? We went over to see if we needed to do anything and it looked beautiful.

We will be taking pictures so you will be able to see what it looks like. It is a beautiful house. And the colors of the holidays look like they always belonged there. I will admit that I actually miss Mrs. Mallard (I'll deny it if you say anything), but she was a charming woman who must have been a pistol in her day. After all, look at Ducky.

Abby said she was going to write you, I know that she hasn't yet because of everything going on, but I wanted to give you a heads up.

I like that you and I are writing. I'll be honest, I miss you. Still feeling angry, but I will say that it has lessened some more in its intensity.

Guess what? I worked on the boat and I managed to keep all my fingers. I even kinda enjoyed it. Oh, I forgot to tell you that I talked him into building another boat. One that I am determined to have him show me how to get it out of the basement, he may swear me to secrecy (there may be an oath in blood involved) so I won't be able to tell you how. I guess I reversed the order of this news, but hey, you went to MIT, you'll figure it out!

Work is still going really well, though I do miss having Jethro's six at work, I loathe admitting I like being FBI. I have been torturing Slacks lately. Hey, not my fault, he forgot to turn in some expense reports and I may or may not have held up payment until he did. You know the rules and process and all that.

Well I need to get this in the mail; Abby will be here shortly determined to get me to tell her where I am taking Jethro on a honeymoon. My lips are sealed. I am still amazed that I was able to get him to take two weeks off. And I'll have you know that it didn't take that much persuasion.

I'll send some pictures through the Warden when I can. Take care Tim. And I do look forward to hearing from you soon.

Tony

Tim was still laughing after he had read the letter for the tenth time. It was so full of excitement that he could feel it through every word. And as excited as he was for Tony and Gibbs, he was thrilled that Tony was sharing even more. That meant the world. The Warden had made a point when he gave him the letter to inform him that he was assured there would be pictures soon.

NCISNCISNCISNCISNCISNCISNCIS NCISNCISNCISNCIS

Tony stirred from his sleep as he felt the arms around him tighten and pull him tightly against the hard body holding him. Smiling, he snuggled into the touch. Finally, the day was here; they were getting married today. All the planning, running around and trying to keep Abby from overdosing on Caf-Pow was done.

He had them both packed, ready to leave on the honeymoon so they didn't have to waste any time. He was still a little surprised that Jethro had agreed to a two week honeymoon; that in and of itself spoke volumes.

Of course, Jethro had taught him long ago that words were not always necessary. And though he also spoke the words, his actions shouted them. There was never a doubt how Jethro felt or how deeply. They had come a long way since the Mexico debacle and he was thankful that he gave him a second chance.

Tony glanced at the clock and sighed. No snuggling back with Jet, it was time to get up, that however didn't mean he couldn't wake the man up in his own way.

Gently turning in the man's arms, he smiled at the peaceful look on the older man's face before he began to place soft gentle kisses on the broad chest. He gently traveled down his body, his eyes on the prize that was rising up begging for attention.

Tony continued down the firm abs, nuzzling the cover of coarse silver curls leaving kisses all along the journey as he followed the trail to the nest of soft hairs surrounding the now erect cock begging for attention.

Burying his nose in the curls, he inhaled deeply taking in the scent of the man, the scent that he craved and of which would never get enough. Unable to resist any longer he ran his tongue up the long hard shaft, swirling it around the ridge of the head before he wrapped his lips around it and tasted the pre-cum that was pooling in the slit.

He moaned when the flavor touched his tongue and wanting more he pressed his tongue into the slit gathering every drop. Jethro started to wake as he was inundated with the sensations that were wreaking havoc on his body. Moaning as Tony impaled himself on his cock, his hand reached down to run his fingers through the younger man's hair.

"Jesus, Tone!" He gasped. "Are you trying to kill me?"

The only response he received was an increase in suction around his dick. And unable to form a coherent thought after that, he let go and reveled in the exquisite torture that Tony was causing. Torn between wanting to hang on and make it last or giving into his need for release, his body decided for him as he shot his cum down the younger man's throat.

He tried to catch his breath as Tony continued to run his tongue over his sensitized flesh before climbing back up his body to capture his lips in a heated kiss.

"Good morning handsome. Are you married?"

Jethro smiled. "Not yet, but I will be in a few hours."

"Yes you will." Tony's eyes filled with excitement, love, and pure joy.

"One hell of a way to wake me up Tone. Now it's my turn." Jethro smirked before he noticed the younger man shaking his head, smiling that brilliant DiNozzo smile.

"Not until we're married. I want to wait."

Jethro raised his eyebrow as he looked down at the very impressive erection. "You sure about that?"

Giving the man a gentle and loving kiss, he whispered "I'm very sure Jet."

Grabbing the older man's hand, "Come on, let's shower, and go down to breakfast".

Jethro looked at him in shock. "And you expect me to keep my hands off you in the shower."

"I do."

Shaking his head as he walked to the bathroom, "Glad to see that you remembered your line".

Tony and Jethro arrived at Ducky's house to find everyone else was already there. It wasn't that surprising considering the guest list was small, only close friends and family. It was what they both wanted, to have only the people that meant something to them attend.

Charlie came out of the house smiling. "Ok you two. Time for you to get to your prospective corners and get ready. No hanky panky."

"Man…you're tough." Tony teased.

She winked at the men. "So I've heard. Jethro, I picked up your ring and gave it to Jack."

"Thank you. I appreciate your doing that." He pulled off his ring that Tony had placed on his finger and reluctantly handed it to the woman to give to Tobias. It was the first time it had left his finger since it had been placed there and he already felt the loss.

Tony seeing the longing on his soon to be husband's face whispered in his ear. "It's only for a little bit, and then it will be right back where it belongs. We'll be married and I'll have your ring on my finger."

Taking a deep breath, he nodded.

Charlie smiled at him. "Jethro you head up to the third bedroom on the left and Tony, you're down here in the study. Tobias is waiting for you and Jack is waiting for Jethro. I was instructed by Ducky that neither of you needed to worry about anything but getting dressed. Everything else is on track. Jack has taken care of the food and beverage; Abby, the cake and tables, Emily has the favors under control, and Ducky has the rest. I made sure the minister arrived."

Tony looked at Charlie. "Favors?"

She laughed. "Yes, favors. But no worries, Jimmy made sure that there were no tiaras or Hello Kitty."

"Ok." He started to lean in for a kiss before heading off to get ready and found Charlie smirking between them.

"Nope. Save those lips for the ceremonious kiss. Now get going."

Tony could be heard mumbling as he headed to the study. "Can't even give my own damn fiancé a kiss."

Charlie turned to Jethro and raised her eyebrow. "Get upstairs Marine, you ain't getting by me."

Trying to glare at the woman proved futile as she just snickered and herded him up the stairs.

NCISNCISNCISNCISNCISNCISNCIS NCISNCISNCISNCIS

Jack chuckled as he saw the look on his son's face when he walked in the bedroom. "Charlie stop you from groping that fiancé of yours?"

Jethro turned the glare on his father.

"She did." Jack shook his head. "You'll get your chance in a bit, Leroy. Your tux is hanging on the door. Not sure what else a best man is supposed to do since neither of you wanted a bachelor party." Smiling, he remembered when his son asked him to be his best man.

***Flashback***

They had finished with dinner and Jethro found a moment with his dad and nervously approached him.

"Dad, I want to ask you something."

"Sure son. Do you want to sit down?" Jack looked at his son with concern.

"No." He took a deep breath before he continued. "For too long we didn't talk and I did my damnedest to pretend that I didn't need a father. That was my mistake and I was wrong. These past few years we have come a long way."

"You're more than just my Dad - you're my friend. I will be forever grateful for the case that brought me home and gave us a chance to get it right. Then you met Tony, you made him feel welcome - like he was part of our family even before we got together. He deserves that acceptance and unconditional love and it means a lot to me that I never had to ask for that from you."

"I really have thought about this since Tony asked me to marry him and there is no one I can imagine being my best man besides you. Will you be my best man?"

Jack looked at his only son and was moved more than he could say. He could not stop the tears that flowed down his cheek if he tried. "I'd be honored Leroy. I can't think of anything that would make me prouder than standing by my son as he marries the man whose love brought him back to life."

Jethro smiled that crooked smile that lit up his whole face. "Thanks Dad."

***End Flashback***

Jethro stepped out of the bathroom dressed in his black tux with the crisp white shirt sans tie.

"What do you think?"

"I think you get your good looks from me." Jack chuckled.

Grinning Jethro looked in the mirror. "Damn."

"What?"

"I owe Tony twenty bucks."

"What for?"

"He bet that I wouldn't be able to feel the difference between my old and new tux, that they would look and feel the same."

Jack cocked an eyebrow. "You should have known better than to bet against the boy."

"True."

"You ready son?"

"More than ready."

"Then let's get moving."

Tobias was waiting outside the study door laughing. "Come on Tonio; get your ass in gear."

Tony glared.

"Not going to work on me and you know that. You wanted me as your best man, so here I am." Tobias grinned. "I get free reign to be a pain in your ass."

***Flashback***

"TC, I have a question for you."

"What Tonio?"

"You have been through a lot with me and are someone that I know is on my side. You definitely kept me from going insane in the past and have had my back through everything. I really want you to be my best man."

"Wow. Are you sure Tonio? I am a pain in your ass."

"Yes you are. And you are also the man I trust the most outside of Jethro; the one I know will always give it to me straight and never hold back. And the one I want standing at my side when I marry the man that I want to spend my life with."

Tobias looked at Tony and grinned. "Quite an honor Tonio. I would be proud to be your best man."

Tony smiled. "Thanks TC."

"Ok. Enough of the mushy shit, let's go join the gang and drink to yours and Jethro's happiness."

**End Flashback**

"You do that quite well TC." Tony smiled as he grabbed the bag with his tux.

Ducky looked over the parlor that had been transformed into an elegant wedding venue. Chairs had been rented and set up, the food was ready in the formal dining room, and the cake was set up. Everything was perfect for his two closest friends; his family. Honored beyond belief that they wanted him to perform the ceremony, he took the necessary steps that allowed him to do just that as quickly as possible.

Everything was ready just awaiting the two men.

"Ducky, are they ready?" Abby was practically jumping out of her skin with excitement.

Smiling indulgently at the young woman, "Almost Abigail. Is Emily ready?"

Abby grinned. "She is excited and ready to go." Hearing a noise, they looked over and saw Jackson and Tobias walk in.

"The boys are ready." Jack grinned.

Abby grinned, looked over at Dornegat, and nodded as he cued the music. Everyone took their places. As soon as Jack and Tobias were stationed on either side of Ducky, Abby and Emily started to walk down the aisle together to the strains of Etta James singing "At Last".

Reaching the front row of chairs, they stood at the two reserved for them and turned to the doorway awaiting the appearance of the two men.

The music filled the room that was beautifully decorated for the holidays making it the perfect back drop for the wedding. The photographer was taking pictures constantly determined to capture every moment. The excitement and love that filled the room was palpable.

All eyes turned to the door as the two men appeared. They were both dressed in black tuxes, foregoing their ties. There was no denying that both men looked amazing. They looked at one another and walked down the aisle together stopping in front of Ducky, Tobias, and Jackson.

Ducky smiled as he leaned down to whisper to the two men. "I don't believe that we needed the lights gentlemen, for I dare say the smiles on your faces clearly outshine them." Straightening up, he addressed the guests.

"We are gathered here to unite these two men in marriage and they wanted not only to share that with all of you here but to include you in that union. The support that you all have shown them through the course of their relationship is something that they wish for you to continue."

"To be their ears when they need to vent, their eyes when they can't see and their porch light when they are lost. Anthony and Jethro are under no illusions that there will be no arguments and that they will never speak in anger, so they count on you, their friends and family, to head slap them both if it gets out of hand."

"Is this a responsibility that you as friends and family are willing to accept?"

An enthusiastic chorus of "Yes" was clearly heard.

Ducky smiled. "As I expected gentlemen, a room full of people that will be happy to keep you both in line." He addressed the room again. "Instead of the traditional vows, Anthony and Jethro opted to share the ones written from their hearts. Anthony, please speak your vows to Jethro."

Tony took a deep breath. "Ten plus years ago I tackled a "dirtbag" to the ground and was met by the bluest eyes I had ever seen. And in the next breath, I wished that you were innocent. It started there. You brought be back to NCIS and gave me something I had never felt before, a place to belong, a home. You made me want to be a better man, a man that you would be proud of. We had our ups and downs and both did a lot of stupid things, but through it all we still had each other's six. I can't pinpoint the moment that I knew you were more than my best friend and boss, because it happened so naturally."

"I had no idea what to do with those feelings, you were Gibbs. Every time I looked in your eyes, I was afraid that you would see inside me but was also afraid that you wouldn't. But then I was granted a chance, a chance I was afraid to take, yet was petrified of the emptiness that I would feel if I didn't try. I am not whole without you Jet. You bring out the best in me, and you fill me with more love than I ever expected. I can't imagine not being beside you, sharing our lives, our laughter, and our love."

"I love you even when that second 'b' rears its ugly head. Every day I love you more than the day before. Thank you for saying yes to marrying me. I love you more than I can say and I will make sure that you know that for the rest of our lives and beyond."

Ducky spoke, his voice full of emotion. "Jethro, speak your vows to Anthony."

Taking a deep breath, he struggled to find his voice being so moved by Tony's words. "Thought I was living. You showed me I merely existed. Thought I was breathing until you showed me I was only taking shallow breaths. Thought my heart was shattered never to be made whole again until you quietly put it back together and I thought I'd never love again until you showed me it was possible. With you, everything is possible again."

"You stood by me when I pushed you away; you had my six when I didn't ask and you gave me a second chance that I am sure I didn't deserve. I will be forever grateful for that gift, because I received something that means more to me than I can ever put into words."

"I look in your eyes and all I see is a love so vast I don't know that I will ever know the true depth of it. And I can only hope when you look in mine you see that my love for you is never ending, rooted there never to be moved and growing more with every breath that I take."

"I can't imagine my life without you in it and I promise you that I will never let you go. I live, breathe and love because of you."

The two men were lost in each other's eyes and words and there was not one person among the group who wasn't moved by the words that were spoken. The words were tangible and wove around them binding them together.

Regaining his composure, Ducky looked at the men. "Jethro and Anthony do you have the rings?" Tobias and Jack stepped forward handing the rings over.

Continuing Ducky smiled, "Jethro and Anthony have asked that the ring exchange be done at the same time, solidifying their joining as one as they take this step together. Please take one another's hands and place the ring on the ring finger and repeat after me."

Tony and Jethro cross their hands so that they could slide the rings on one another's fingers at the same time.

"Do you Anthony and Jethro take one another to be joined in marriage, to stand by one another in sickness and in health, to cherish each other and to love one another till parted by death?"

"I do." They both stated.

"Then by the powers given to me by the state of Maryland, I now proudly pronounce you as husband and husband. You may now kiss your spouse."

Their lips met in their first kiss as a married couple, and made all the kisses that preceded this one pale in comparison. Not because it exhibited fiery heat or lust, but simply because it was a true and physical binding of their words and commitment; they were joined together in every way possible. This was the true meaning of 'sealed with a kiss'.
