Authors note: This is the last chapter of this story but I will definitely be writing one more story possibly two stories in this series, I just feel I can't stop the story now. In this chapter I used part of the song "I Don't Want To Miss A Thing" performed by Aerosmith. Although the whole song applies. Thanks for reading.
It Seems Like A Lifetime
The months passed quickly and it wasn't long before Tony and Kate's third child, a little girl, was born. They decided on the name McKenna Kate. Kate just fell in love with the name McKenna when she heard it and as far as McKenna's middle name goes Tony wanted McKenna to have her mother's name as part of her name. McKenna took after Kate. Like Aidan, McKenna had Kate's eyes. After two days at the hospital they finally got to take McKenna home. McGee and Abby were watching the boys the day they came home. Aidan was very excited about his new sister coming home, Ethan on the other hand wasn't as thrilled but he was adjusting. When they got home Kate went in first followed by Tony who had the car seat with McKenna in it. The boys ran to their mother. "Mommy!" Aidan said as he hugged her followed by Ethan who did the same. Abby just smiled as she saw Kate with her children. Abby knew that Kate had the life she had always dreamed about, the life she deserved. It seems like a lifetime ago when Kate first joined NCIS and it seems like a lifetime since Tony and Kate refused to acknowledge how they truly felt about one another and then so suddenly everything changed. Everything changed for the better for everyone. Tony and Kate both knew how blessed they were to have found each other, fallen in love, and now have 3 amazing children. Not to mention they had a career they both enjoy. Their relationship had had its ups and downs but their love prevailed because true love does conquer all. It seems like a lifetime since everything changed for the better. It seems like a lifetime since Tony and Kate fell in love.
"I Don't Want To Miss A Thing"
I could stay awake just to hear you breathing…
Watch you smile while you are sleeping…
While you're far away dreaming…
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender…
I could stay lost in this moment forever…
Every moment spent with you is a moment I treasure…
Don't want to close my eyes…
I don't want to fall asleep…
Cause I'd miss you baby…
And I don't want to miss a thing…
Cause even when I dream of you…
The sweetest dream will never do…
I'd still miss you baby…
And I don't want to miss a thing…
