NCIS - BULL PEN

Tony had hit enter when his cell phone rang with text message. He glanced down and seen that it was Tim's email address and smirked. "You want me to come to VA with you?" The message read. Tony just looked over at McGee and gave a slight nod. Tim smirked and was startled when Abby bound up the stairs. "I got it. The DNA sample came back with a match. Eric Tompson was there at the bunkers." Abby said.

"So he could've been there seeing Mike." Kate said from her desk.

"But it was on David's bed sheets." Abby said.

Tony looked up. "Oh no. He found out." Tony said.

"Found out what?" Gibbs asked.

"That Mike and David were seeing each other." Tim said.

"So wait maybe Eric didn't like that his son was seeing another guy and went to talk to David." Kate said.

"Get Eric Tompson in here." Gibbs said.

"On it." Tony said standing and grabbing his gun.

"Kate you go too." Gibbs said. Tim watched Tony with a concerned look and seen the glare he sent Gibbs but didn't say nothing.

ERIC TOMPSON'S HOUSE

Tony and Kate pulled up and got out. They were surprised to see James' car there. Tony laid his hand on his gun. Walking up to the door they heard loud voice raised. "Oh come on James. We need to get that arrogant kid of yours off of the case." Eric said. Tony and Kate looked at each other.

"I know Eric. But they already suspect me." Edward said.

"God if anyone finds out we were working together to have David killed we'll get it bad." Eric said. Tony and Kate nodded.

"Oh you got that right Mr. Tompson. You're both under arrest for the murder of David Dinozzo." Kate said pulling cuffs out of her pocket.

"What. Who the hell are you?" Eric asked.

"She's my partner. Mr. Tompson you have the right to remain silent." Tony said clasping handcuffs on James' wrists.

"Anthony you are making a big mistake." James said.

"No Father you made a big mistake." Tony said slamming James against the wall.

"Come on Tony let's take them in." Kate said backing Tompson up.

5: PM

NCIS -OBSERVATION ROOM

Tony Kate and McGee were standing in the first Observation room watching as Gibbs walked into the Interrogation room and sat down in front of Eric Tompson. McGee who was beside Tony discreetly took his hand. Tony looked down and smiled softly. "I can't believe they were working together." Tim said.

"Yeah. Dad has friends where he needs em." Tony said keeping his eyes on Eric. Gibbs sat down and looked at Eric.

"How d you know David Dinozzo?" Gibbs asked.

"He was a friend's grandson. Not to mention my son's friend." Eric said.

"Did you know your son is gay?" Gibbs asked.

"I did. But what does that have to do with the Dinozzo boy being killed?" Eric asked.

"Did you know that the Dinozzo boy and your son were in a intimate relationship?" Gibbs asked. Tony stiffened and Tim squeezed his hand.

"I did. I didn't care for it none." Eric said looking down.

"Did you know James Dinozzo?" Gibbs asked.

"Yes me and him went to College together. I was proud of my boy Agent Gibbs. But him being gay was too much." Eric said.

"You wanna try explaining to Dinozzo's parents why his body is in the morgue and not being shipped home for a proper burial." Gibbs asked.

"Listen James came to me and said his grand son was gay. And we figured out that Mike and him were seeing each other. I told James I didn't like it. Next thing I knew he was planning to kill David. Asked if I wanted Mike taken care of too." Eric said.

"What did you say?" Gibbs asked.

"I told him no. I love my son." Gibbs said. Tony slammed out of the Observation room and left NCIS. Tim was gonna go after him but decided Tony needed his time. Gibbs stepped out of the Observation room and noticed he was one man short.

"Where's Dinozzo?" He asked.

"Left. My guess going to James." Kate said. Gibbs made a dash for the next Interrogation room.

JAMES'S INTERROGATION ROOM

Tony stormed in and yanked James up by the shirt collar. "What the hell are you doing dear boy.," James said.

"Don't dear boy me. You Son of a bitch you had him killed. You played this whole team like a fiddle. Not no more." Tony said slamming him into the wall. Gibbs and Tim came in just then and pulled Tony off of him.

"If I have to I will make you pay myself." Tony said straining to get out of Tim's embrace.

"DINOZZO SHUT THE HELL UP." Gibbs yelled. "Get him out of here McGee." Gibbs said.

"Come on Tony let's go get something to drink." Tim said pushing his lover out of the interrogation room.

"You need to reign that boy in Agent Gibbs." James said.

Gibbs turned to him and snarled. "Kate book him for murder." Gibbs said. Kate did so gladly.

NOVEMBER 21ST

ROANOKE VIRGINIA - DANIEL/GLORIA'S HOUSE

Tony was laid out on the bed in the guest room . Tim was in the shower getting ready for dinner. Gloria and Daniel were talking with Davy's lover Mike Tompson. Tony was thinking of meeting David when he felt the bed dip. "You ok?" Tim asked.

"Tired." Tony said.

"What time do you think Dinner will be?" Tim asked.

"Probably in a couple hours." Tony said looking at the clock.

"Why don't you nap. I'm gonna call Gibbs. Abby has been threatening him." Tim said.

"Alright. Tim?" Tony asked.

"Yeah?" Tim asked looking back at him.

"Thanks for coming. I'm glad you did. Danny and Gloria I think felt at ease with us here." Tony said laying and hand on Tim's.

"You're welcome. I wouldn't have been anywhere else." Tim said kissing Tony. Neither noticed Danny looking at them.

"Go call Gibbs." Tony said breaking the kiss. Tim smiled and watched Tony curl up on his side for his nap.

LIVING ROOM

Danny was sitting in his chair thinking of his little brother and his lover. A fond smile on his face. "Oh sorry didn't mean to interrupt your privacy." Tim said backing out.

"No Agent McGee please come on in." Daniel said.

"I was just calling me and Tony's boss. Our lab rat is threatening him." Tim said.

Danny smirked. "Tony napping?" Danny asked.

"Yeah. Been a long day. He drove all the way here. How is your wife?" Tim asked.

"Ok. She'll have good days and bad days." Danny said.

"I have a feeling everyone who loses a child has those." Tim said.

"Agent McGee how long have you and my brother been seeing each other?" Danny asked. Tim who was shocked almost choked.

"Danny dontcha know you're supposed to leave the potentials alone." Tony asked coming into the room.

"Sorry Lil bro. You wanna share?" Danny asked.

"Almost a month." Tony said sitting down next to Tim.

"Well then I guess it's high time he come to Thanksgiving." Danny said.

"Danny we had already discussed it and we're gonna stay til Friday.," Tony said.

"Good. Well I better check on Gloria and Mike." Danny said getting up.

Tim leaned back and looked at Tony. "You know we can't leave Gibbs two men down for long." Tim said.

"Yes. But Gibbs don't need you right now. I do tho." Tony said letting the walls he had built during the case and funeral crumble. Tim held his arms out and let Tony crumble in them. Tim kissed his head. It was decided them that they'd stay for Thanksgiving. Tim also remember what his mom told him. Grief can tare people up. Or bring em together. It brought Tony and Tim together.
