Abby's secret.
Abby knocked on Tony and Kate's door; it was raining now and for how long she didn't know. Tony opened the door. "Hey Abby what's…what's wrong?" Tony asked noticing Abby crying. "I need to talk to Kate." Abby said. "Come on in. Kate, Abby's here to see you." Tony told Kate as he led Abby to the living room where Kate and Aidan were. Kate immediately saw that something wasn't right. "What's going on Abby?" Kate asked as she went over to hug her friend. "McGee left me." Abby said. "Abby I'm sorry, tell me what happened." Kate said. "Well McGee came over as usual and we had dinner and then he told me it was over. The worst part is I didn't get to tell him…" Abby trailed off. "Tell him what Abs?" Tony asked. "Nothing, it's nothing." Abby replied. "Abby are you pregnant?" Kate asked. "Yes." Abby replied. "He left you before you could tell him that you're pregnant, is that what you were going to say?" Kate asked. Abby just nodded her head. Tony got up and headed for the door. Kate picked up Aidan and went after him. "Where do you think you're going?" Kate asked. "To find McGee" Tony replied. "Yeah and what are you going to do when you find him?" Kate asked. "I don't know." Tony replied. "Tony, I'm begging you don't do anything stupid." She replied. "I'm going to call Gibbs to help me." Tony said. "Now he will do something stupid. Don't you think you should ask Abby what she wants first?" Kate asked. "You're right. Abby I'm going to find McGee and I'm going to get Gibbs to help. Is that all right?" Tony asked. "Find him Tony, he needs to know." Abby replied. Tony looked at Kate. "Okay go." Kate said. He quickly kissed her and told her and Aidan that he loved them and then he was off to find McGee. Kate went back over to the couch and sat down with Abby. "Everything will be okay Abby." Kate told her friend. "You're just lucky you've got Tony, you and Aidan both." Abby said. "I know." Kate replied.
Gibbs was in his basement working on his boat when his cell phone rang, he went over to answer it. "Gibbs. What do you want Dinozzo? No I'm not busy I'm just working on my boat. He did what? She's what? I'm going to kill him! What do you mean I'm not going to kill him? Okay fine I'll see you in a few minutes. Okay Dinozzo I'll calm down." Gibbs said as he hung up the phone. Within minutes Tony was at Gibbs' house, Gibbs quickly got in the car. "All I have to say is this better not be all for nothing." Gibbs said. "Nice to see you too boss." Tony said sarcastically. "Where do you think he is?" asked Gibbs. "Honestly he could be anywhere but I know of a few places he might be." Tony replied. They drove for hours looking for McGee, they were running out of places to look by then they had called Ducky and he was now part of the search. Suddenly Tony's cell phone rang. "Dinozzo, yeah Ducky? You found him, where? Okay we'll be right there." Tony said as he hung up the phone. "So Ducky found him?" Gibbs asked. "Yep Tony replied. Tony pulled into the parking lot of the NCIS headquarters and he quickly parked the car. They quickly entered the building and arrived upstairs to McGee sitting at his desk. Ducky met Tony and Gibbs at the elevator. "What do we do now, gentlemen?" Ducky asked. "First we beat the crap out of him." Gibbs said. "Gibbs we're not going to hurt him, remember?" Tony reminded him. "Fine but were going to get an explanation out of him and then were taking him back to Tony's house to see Abby." Gibbs said.
"McGee." Gibbs said in a tone that snapped McGee out of his trance. "Yeah, boss?" McGee replied. "Come with us." Gibbs ordered and McGee followed them into the interrogation room. "What did you do McGee?" Gibbs asked. McGee just looked at them and then he looked at Tony for help. "Probie, you're on your own. I'm just as angry as he is." Tony said. "I can't be with Abby anymore. My parents hate her and it's not fair to her." McGee said as he broke down. "Do you always do what your parents want, Probie?" Tony asked. "No, well not all the time." McGee replied. "So why is this any different?" Gibbs asked. "Like I said it wouldn't be fair to her." McGee said. "Get up." Gibbs ordered. "Where are we going boss?" McGee asked. "Tony's house, you're going to talk to Abby. She has something to tell you and you are going to listen to her." Gibbs replied.
The ride to Tony's house was silent. After what seemed like an eternity they finally pulled in the driveway. Tony opened the door and led them to the living room where on the loveseat Kate was sitting holding Aidan as he slept, sitting on the couch was Abby. "Tim we need to talk." Abby said. Kate gave Aidan to Tony and they all went into the kitchen so Abby and McGee could talk in private, but where they could still hear everything. "Tim I need you to listen to me. I know this may not change anything but you need to know. I'm pregnant Tim." Abby said. "You're right it doesn't change anything Abby. The fact is I can't be with you. My parents won't allow it." McGee said. "What does it matter what they think? I thought we were in love." Abby said. "I love you very much Abby but they'll never accept you or our child." McGee explained. "So you're just going to walk away?" Abby asked. "No I'll be there for our child but we can't be together at least not for now. I'm sorry Abby." McGee said as he left to go outside. "Come on out guys, I know you heard everything." Abby said as her friends came back into the room. "Just give him some time Abby, I'm sure he'll change his mind." Kate said. "I hope so." Abby replied. "And don't worry Abby you and that baby have all of us to help you." Gibbs told her. "Thank-you, all of you. Kate I don't feel like going home to an empty apartment is it okay if I crash on your couch?" Abby asked. "Of course you can." Kate replied. Soon everyone left and Tony and Kate put Aidan to bed. Abby just lied awake thinking, she took comfort in the fact that she wasn't going through this alone. She had her friends.
