A/N: *snorts* So, this wasn't the chapter I have/had written out in my notebook for chapter 15… However, my muse got her way so what was meant for this chapter will be in the next chapter… My muse wanted some more Charlie, Tony, and Spencer bonding time so that is what you all get! Enjoy!

Charlie smirked slightly as he walked through the living room and into the kitchen. He wasn't surprised that Tony and Spencer were already up and awake, but he was surprised that Ian, Gibbs, Hotch, and Don weren't awake yet. He was kind of glad that they weren't as it would give him time to check on Tony and to see how he was really doing. He smiled at his two best friends when he saw them sitting at the bar in the kitchen watching his father cook. "Did you two get enough sleep?"

Tony looked at Charlie with a wide smile on his face. "I slept better last night than I have in weeks, Charlie. I have to say that the bed Spencer and I shared was very soft and comfortable. I really didn't want to get out of bed this morning."

Spencer nodded. "I still can't believe that you have a bedroom for Tony and I set aside for when we come to visit you, Charlie. I'm very happy that I slept here last night instead of at the hotel. I have a feeling the rest of my team made sure that Agent McGee and Officer David didn't get the sleep they probably require in order to function halfway decent last night. I know that they weren't happy with the things they learned last night."

Charlie's eyes hardened. "I wasn't happy about the things I learned last night. Tony, why didn't you tell me that things were as bad as they currently are? If I had known before yesterday, I'd have made sure that Officer David was off your team a long time ago. You don't deserve what she or McGee are doing to you. I'm not going to be surprised if McGee gets busted back to FLETC or if David gets sent back to Israel which is damn well where she belongs. Hell, Director Jenny Shepard is going to be lucky if she doesn't end up facing treason charges for the shit she has pulled."

Tony shrugged his shoulders. "When I had the time to talk to you, I didn't want to spend it talking about them, Charlie. The times I got to talk to you gave me a reprieve in having to deal with them or the shit they were pulling. I'm damn glad that I'm working at the LA HQ of the FBI today because I really need a long break away from them. I need time to just be me without having to wear a mask. Does that make sense?"

Alan who had been silently listening to his own son and the two other young men he thought of as sons said, "You deserve the time to be just you, Anthony. You don't have to be anyone other than who you are and the people who think that you do need to be someone else needs a swift kick in their butts. It's be a long time since the three of you have been together at one time and I'm happy to see you all together. Oh, Charlie, I made sure that your Agent Edgerton's gun was within arm reach of him after making sure that t he safety of it was on. Are you ever going to tell me how your date went with him the other night?"

Charlie's mouth dropped open in shock as he stared at his dad with wide eyes. "Dad!"

Alan smirked at his youngest biological son as he put three plates of scrambled eggs and bacon on the bar in front of the three young men. "Did you really think I didn't know that you are bisexual, Charlie? I knew that you, Anthony, and Spencer all liked the same sex before you three knew it. In fact, I was the one who clued your mother into that bit of information before you told her. Just like I know that you do more for the FBI and other government agencies than you let on or that your brother knows about. I'm not as strait laced as I act, son, and no I won't tell you just what I used to get up to in my younger days. I won't interfere in what you do as long as you don't put yourself in danger. I just act like I do sometimes because if I didn't your brother would have been clued in a long time ago to some of the stuff you get involved in."

Tony snorted after he finished chewing a piece of bacon. "I told you that your dad knew more about the shit you, Spencer, and me got up to than you thought he did. Between him and your mom I had the parents I always wished that I had when I was growing up. Now, if only we could get Don to quit looking at us like we are still the teenagers we used to be would be able to call it good."

Spencer laughed. "Don is always going to be overprotective of us no matter what he knows. He always made it his job to make sure that we stayed out of trouble and if we didn't stay out of trouble, he made sure to cover it up. There are some things that would be easier if Don knew about them, but at the same time things that would be harder if he knew about them. Tony, do you want me to come to HQ with you or do you want me to go back to the NCIS LA branch HW to make sure that Gibbs doesn't kill the two idiots?"

Tony sighed. "As much as I'd love it if you came with me, I think you had best go with Gibbs and Hotch. I know that Hotch would do his best to keep Gibbs from killing McGee and David, but I think that you would have more luck in keeping him from killing them. I'll be fine with Don, Edgerton, and my two security detail and I won't leave the building without Don or Edgerton with me. Also, I need to reply to a few emails for one of our projects and that will be easier to do at FBI HQ than at NCIS HQ. Don, Edgerton, Don's team, Mick, and Prophet understand the need for secrecy and won't try to read over my shoulder like my two so-called teammates would."

Spencer hummed in agreement as he finished eating. "I have noticed that those two have a tendency to try to stick their noses where they don't belong. I wonder what General O'Neill and Jackson have found out if anything yet."

Alan huffed. "Jack O'Neill won't stop digging until he finds everything that he needs. I may not know Doctor Jackson, but I do know O'Neill and that man is protective when it comes to his people and, Tony, you are one of his people. Now, I can hear the others up and moving around so you three finish eating and then go get ready while I feed the others. Make sure to tell me bye before you leave for the day and I'll expect you all home for dinner tonight even if you have to bring a lot of agents home with you."

Tony, Spencer, and Charlie all smiled at that and finished off their orange juice before standing up. They nodded at the four men who was just walking into the kitchen before they hurried out so that they could get ready for the day. All three of them were looking forward to that day for different reasons.
