6. Chapter 6

AN: God, this chapter is being a pain. This is where the rewrite completely changes. Amber is no longer Jenny's daughter, instead she is her goddaughter. AJ's (Amber) mother is mentioned but won't show up for a while. Sorry it is short, I couldn't figure where I wanted this to go from here.

Chapter 6

It had been 3 months since their talk and still Jenny and Jethro were not together. Instead, Jenny stood on the catwalk and watched as the man she loved walked out of the elevator with his new girlfriend, Lt. Col Hollis Mann.

She thought he had understood that she needed time for things to settle with Stacie before they talked about them. Obviously not.

Jenny mentally slapped herself for being such an idiot to let him go, she turned slowly and walked back into her office. There was no point trying to fix it now.

Meanwhile down in the bullpen, Kate and Tony were sat doing paperwork. Kate kept sneaking glances over at Tony, she caught his eyes for a second before turning away. There had been something brewing between them for quite some time but neither of them seemed willing to make the first move.

Just then the elevator pinged open and a teenage girl walked out, she walked over to the team.

"Is Director Shepard around?" She asked, looking at the friendly brunette.

"She is, can I ask what it's about?" Kate replied.

Kate took in the appearance of the girl. She had dark brown hair and blue/grey eyes. Her face was familiar.

"Tell her it's Amber please." Amber said with a smile.

Kate phoned up to Jenny's office and left the message with Cynthia, who informed her that Jenny would be down as soon as possible. She hung up the phone and looked back at the girl.

"She's on her way down," Kate cocked her head to the side, "Have we met before?"

Amber shrugged, "I don't think so."

Jenny rushed down the stairs and walked over to Amber, a massive smile on her face.

"Hey Aunt Jen." Amber said as she was pulled into a hug.

"Amber Jean, what are you doing here?" Jenny asked.

"I wanted to talk to you about something." Amber replied, "Mom is seeing someone and she wants me to meet him."

"Ah, yes." Jenny mumbled. She knew her friend was seeing someone but hadn't realised that they were at the point of him meeting her daughter.

"Do you know who it is? Should I be worried?" Amber rambled.

"Let's go to my office and talk about this, I think your mother would like her privacy in regards to this." Jenny said, turning around and walking to her office with Amber in tow.
