A/N: Hey Just so you all know, this chapter takes place a few weeks after the last chapter.
--
Abby was down in her lab, about mid afternoon, her stomach was just starting to show the tell tale signs of early pregnancy. She looked down at her stomach, they would have to tell Kalila soon, but they had decided not to tell her until her adoption was finalized.
Ducky came by the lab a couple of times a day to check on her, him being the only one of the team that knew. Gibbs was coming down to the lab three times his usual amount to make sure she was ok. If that weren't enough to make the rest of the team suspicious, Abby had pretty much abandoned her usual look and was now sticking to her pile of black sweatshirts and jeans.
Though Abby liked that Gibbs and Ducky were concerned, but it was getting pretty irritating. She knew this would only get worse as the pregnancy continued, as the months went by, wouldn't stop until she gave birth.
"Would you two calm down?" Abby said in an irritated tone as they came in, for Gibbs's sixth time, and Ducky's third.
"We are calm, Abigail," said Ducky and Abby gave him a death glare.
"I mean you two coming in here every five minutes, how am I supposed to get any work done?" said Abby as Gibbs gave her a quick kiss, "I mean I love you, both, but you two, I'm fine."
"We're just worried, Abbs," said Gibbs, and Abby rolled her eyes he kissed her again, "And I like coming to check up on you."
Ducky took that as a cue to back out of the room slowly. Gibbs shifted so he could hug her from behind, and put his hand over her stomach. Abby smiled and gave a little chuckle.
"Checking, fine, obsessively coming down here in shifts? No." said Abby and Gibbs kissed her behind her ear, which made her smile spread.
"Oh, you know how we emailed my Mom and Dad a couple days ago to tell them we were officially adopting Kalila, and that I am pregnant, and everything," said Abby.
"Yup, I thought your dad was gonna come through that machine and kill me," said Gibbs, remembering wanting so badly to actually call, but knew that was an impossibility as Abby chuckled.
"Well, they're here," said Abby, "They came up, their staying in a hotel, they came up to meet Kalila and well they're gonna come back when it gets closer to… well about nine months from now. Don't worry, I told them not to tell Kalila just yet."
"They're here?" said Gibbs, this was unbelievable.
"Don't worry, Gibbs, they love you," said Abby, "I think they wanted to adopt you."
"Do they still?" said Gibbs questioningly.
"Want to adopt you? No, that would make you my brother, and that would be creepy," said Abby, Gibbs looked up at the ceiling a little, and she smiled, "Yes, they still love you. Oh, and they brought my brother."
"Ok," said Gibbs as he let her go and went to leave, "You can pick them up, I'll pick Kalila up, and we can all go to dinner."
"Gibbs, my brother, Stevie, goes everywhere dressed as a Jedi, light saber and all, he's twenty," said Abby and Gibbs smirked.
"It's ok, Kalila and the baby don't need any cousins, I think Tony'll cover that," said Gibbs as he left.
Abby couldn't help but smile as he left. Later they Abby sat in a downtown restaurant with her family.
'We is our boy?' George signed.
'Picking up Kalila' Abby answered him as Gibbs walked in the door, umbrella open, carrying Kalila on his hip, her little pink cast showing, they had decorated it with princess stickers.
"Gibbs, Kalila, over here!" Abby called, and they made their way over.
"Auntie Abby!" said Kalila as Abby took her from Gibbs.
"Hey, hon," said Abby kissing her head, "How was your day?"
"Umm good," said Kalila, as Abby set her down on the booth seat next to herself.
'What happened to her leg?' signed Gloria.
'We made the mistake of letting her Uncle Tony take her for the day.' Gibbs replied and they laughed.
Gibbs soon spotted Stevie.
"Hello, Jedi Master Gibbs," said Stevie giving Gibbs a small smile.
Gibbs shot a look at Abby.
"His first impression of you is a very good one," Abby explained, "'Jedi Master' is a sign of respect from Stevie."
"Oh, nice to meet you too," said Gibbs as everyone sat down.
"Hey, Kalila, wanna tells Auntie Abbs what you did at day care today?" Gibbs asked her.
"I drew the three of us," said Kalila.
"Aww, Kals," said Abby giving her a hug, and they all went into communications over their dinner.
