The Rescue

Down in the daycare Ben Johnson was looking for Aidan, it would've helped if he could remember what he looked like. Then he spotted him and he knew it was Aidan because of his eyes, Aidan had eyes just like Kate. As he went after the little boy Gibbs barged into the room. "Freeze Johnson!" Gibbs said and he froze instantly but then he raised his gun at Gibbs. "That would be a big mistake Johnson." Gibbs said. "I'm going to take Kate's little boy and you're not going to stop me!" Ben said. "And why are you going to take her son?" Gibbs asked. "It's the only way I can get Kate back." Ben replied. "Well Ben…can I call you Ben? I can't let you do that." Gibbs replied. "Well then I have to shoot you." Ben said. Just then McGee snuck in behind him and got Aidan and took him out of the room. "You don't want to do that and if I were you I'd put the gun down and give up." Gibbs said with a smirk. "Why's that?" Ben asked annoyed. "Because Aidan's gone, one of my agents snuck in here while we were talking and got him." Gibbs replied. "You Bastard, you ruined everything!" Ben said as he was about to pull the trigger but another agent tackled him to the ground and cuffed him. Gibbs walked over to him. "Benjamin Johnson you are under arrest for the attempted kidnapping of Aidan Dinozzo and the attempted murder of two federal agents…" said Gibbs.

Meanwhile upstairs Tony and Kate just waited; it's all they could do. Soon McGee emerged from the elevator with Aidan. He quickly brought him to his parents and put him in Kate's arms. "Aidan" was all that Kate could say as she held him close. Tony then came over and put his arms around both of them. Tony and Kate were relieved that their little boy was okay. "I'm never letting you out of my sight again." Kate told Aidan. "Hey Kate it's been a rough hour or so why don't you take Aidan and go lie down on my futon." Abby suggested. "I don't know." Kate said. But it obvious that Aidan was tired and the events of the morning had taken their toll on Kate so Tony convinced her to go lie down. "Okay we'll go, only if you come with us Tony." Kate said. "I'll be down in a few minutes. I think I need to call a lawyer." Tony told her. "You're right that's probably a good idea." Kate replied as she quickly kissed him and headed toward the elevator with Aidan.

Downstairs Kate lied down on the futon and held her little boy close. "Aidan I promise you I won't let anyone ever get that close to hurting you again." Kate said and then practically promised her son the world. "Love you Mommy." Aidan said. "I love you too." Kate said and smiled at him. Soon both Kate and Aidan were sound asleep. When Tony got downstairs he just smiled when he saw the two people he loved the most were sound asleep. He lied down so that Aidan was between him and Kate. He had never been as scared as he had been that morning, but it probably wasn't until that morning that he realized just how much Kate and Aidan meant to him.

Upstairs in the interrogation room Gibbs was pacing as Ben just sat in his chair refusing to talk. "You know Ben it would be better for you if you would just talk to me." Gibbs said. "I'm not talking to you without a lawyer and I want to talk to Kate." Ben said. "You're not talking to Kate; in fact you will not be going anywhere near Kate or her family ever again." Gibbs replied. Ben just stared Gibbs down and Gibbs returned the favor he knew it was going to be a very long day.

Down in Abby's lab Abby and McGee just watched Tony, Kate, and Aidan. "Isn't that just adorable?" Abby asked. "I guess." McGee said. "Tony and Kate are so content just being together and being with their son, they're so happy. I've always dreamed of being that happy someday." Abby said. "Well maybe someday we'll be that happy." McGee replied. McGee had every intention of them being as happy as Tony and Kate. He planned to ask Abby to marry him soon; he just had to break the news to his parents first. He wasn't too sure about the idea of a family at least not right away but maybe someday.

The moment was quickly ruined when Abby's phone rang loudly and woke Tony, Kate, and Aidan up. Aidan was not happy in fact he was rather cranky. Kate just held him. "Gibbs said to tell you that your lawyer is here Tony and he wanted to know if you guys wanted to view the interrogation?" Abby said. "Are you up to it Kate?" Tony asked. "Yeah, tell him we'll be there." Kate said. "You know Kate if you want you can leave Aidan down here with me, I'd be happy to watch him for awhile." Abby offered. "Thanks but I think I'll keep him with us right now." Kate said as she got up. Tony and Kate then headed upstairs with Aidan.
