Hey hey hey! or should i say OH MY GOD! LOL ok to put you out of your misery, here is the next part...and for those who are getting ready for finals or whatever...GOOD LUCK!


Kate and Gibbs leapt apart at the sound of Grace's shout.

"Uh Morning-"

Grace just stood there, in her pjs, phone in hand, jaw dropped. "OH.MY.GOD!"

"What? Grace what! What's going on! GRACE!" Gibbs, Kate and Grace could hear Abby on the other end of the phone demanding to know what Grace was screeching about.

"I just caught my Dad and Kate making out in the kitchen."

"WHAT! Your dad and Kate? WAIT, she stayed over? WAIT! They kissed?"

"Uh yeah let me call you back, I'm getting daggers here-" Gibbs took the phone off his daughter and spoke.

"Abby, this does not leave the conversation; say anything and you're off Caff-Pow's for a month."

"Yes sir, Boss, sir!"

Grace grabbed a mug of coffee and held on to it as a lifeline of reality, "Am I dreaming or is this really happening?" Kate looked a bit sheepish.

"Uh no, you're awake." Grace narrowed her eyes at Kate.

"You're really here… making out with my dad."

"Gracie." Gibbs said in a warning tone.

"Sorry, but walking in on my dad and his prospective girlfriend playing a bit of tongue hockey on a Sunday morning, after getting grounded was never on my agenda. It's just a shock to my system. But hey, I'm happy for you! Really!" Grace grinned mischievously, "I guess that means that you guys are going to have no trouble convincing the Todds that you're a couple!"

Kate groaned as Gibbs put his arm around her, "I'm never going to live this down am I?"

"Nope… but convince dad to let me stay with Abby while you're away and not my grandparents and we'll see."

Kate turned to Gibbs and pouted while Grace bit back a laugh.

"Gracie, I said we'll discuss it later, you're not using this as leverage."

"M'whatever, I'm hungry let's eat." They finished up with breakfast and cleared away the plates, while Grace ran off to catch the rest of the MTV special.

"So what happened last night?" Kate asked as she joined Grace on the floor, leaning up against the sofa. Gibbs had gone upstairs to take a shower, leaving Kate and Grace alone to interrogate each other on the events of the previous night.

Grace grimaced, "You heard?"

"Yeah… Never been in that much trouble with him before, have you?"

Grace chucked, "Hard to believe isn't it. I was telling dad the truth last night. Well most of it. I left out the part about them getting a little more than 'merry' and following us for a bit, before Melinda threatened to break their balls. You won't tell him will you? I don't want him to freak out anymore than he did last night."

Kate nodded, "That's between you and your dad, they didn't get rough though did they?"

"No! They just got very vocal about stuff. Anyways, what happened here last night? Last I remember, you were horrified at the thought of asking Dad, what made you change your mind? And how the hell did all this go from avoiding each other to making out on a Sunday morning! OMIGOD! You didn't… you know…" Grace made a little action with her hands to 'you know'. Kate blushed furiously. "Eew! You didn't! Eeew!"

"NO! No, no, we didn't do-that- but um, I think that if you weren't coming home last night, we might have – here…"

Grace jumped up from the floor, eyes widening, "You almost - on the couch! Kate! I sit here; I even sleep on that thing! Tell me you didn't do anything! God I'm gonna have to get it sterilized!"

Kate laughed, "No! Nothing like that… it was just… one moment we were talking and then I cried-"

"Dad made you cry?"

"No, just nerves started to get to me. Anyways, we talked and then I kissed him."

"Wow, go Kate! Never thought you'd be the one to make the first move!"

Kate rolled her eyes, "Yeah so go on."

"We just talked more… and then Gibbs kissed me… and well … leave the rest up to imagination."

"Uh, how about NO Kate! I'm going to have nightmares just from the knowledge that my dad made out with you…more than once," Grace shuddered, blocking herself from the pillow Kate threw at her.

"Grace, just how do you think that you came to be? I'm pretty sure you weren't delivered by the Stork or came from a cabbage patch!"

"Kaaate! Not Cool!" They started giggling as Grace buried her face in her hands, "Despite my reaction this morning, and the 'eew' factor of – stuff. I really am happy for you both."

"Thanks kiddo," Kate thanked as she gave her a half hug.

"And as long as I'm a bridesmaid at the wedding," Kate scoffed and whacked her in the arm.

"Don't get so far ahead of yourself."

"And as long as there is no funny business going on in front of me, and that none of it happens on anything that I sometimes occupy like the dinner table, or the island, or this couch!"

"What about the couch?" The girls burst into laughter as they turned to see Gibbs come down the stairs.

"What?" and the just burst out in laughter again.
