A/N: Sorry for the delay…winter break has been very busy actually…but, I did promise another chapter, so here it is, I am hoping for a Jibbs moment in this one and some Ziva/Heart/Gibbs fighting…all though, that may not be how it goes at all, best way to find out is to write, or in your case read, so off I go, enjoy, please review:)

Last Chapter

Hart stared at her wide eyed. Why couldn't she just keep her mouth shut, she had already made the decision to leave Jethro, why was she acting like she was still in a relationship with him 'because you still want to!' the voice in her head quickly answered…hmm, maybe she should just wait around until Jethro broke it off, no sense in quitting when she still may have a chance, it wasn't in her nature to back down from a challenge, and Miss David over here just presented her with one.

Current Chapter

Gibbs continued to hold and rock Jenny till her sobs and shaking subsided until he would only hear a sob or feel a shake every few minutes or so.

"Jen? I'm gonna bring you back to bed so you can sleep for a bit okay?" He asked kissing the top of her head lightly. He felt her nod slightly so he slowly started to get off the couch so as not to frighten or hurt her.

He made his way down to his bedroom, grabbed a large shirt from his dresser, andd gently stripped the blanket off her.

"It's okay Jen, I want to get you into something more comfortable okay?" He said when her breathing picked up a bit. She seemed to relax slightly at his words and allowed him to finish removing her torn clothes and place his shirt on her.

He laid her down in the middle of the bed, after a little bit of prodding for her to let go of him so he could gather the blankets from around the room.

He tucked her in, lent down and brushed her bangs out of her face before kissing her forehead. He noticed how her breathing was coming in deeper breaths now, showing she was about to fall asleep, but was trying to fight it.

"Jen, nothing is going to happen to you, I promise, he won't hurt you ever again." He ensured grabbing her hand and squeezing it while he sat on the bed next to her.

She looked up at him, and he couldn't help but notice how much like a small child she looked like when they were completely lost and devastated.

She seemed to consider his promise for a minute before slowly nodding and pulling herself into a fetal position, while burrowing her head further into his pillow.

Gibbs sat with her for a minute while she drifted off, just watching her and wanting nothing more than to take back tonight…the last two years for that matter. He knew Jen said to not blame himself for what happened when she 'died' because he didn't know about her sister, but what happened tonight was completely and utterly his fault.

Once he believed she was asleep he started to pull his hand away from hers so he could go out and make sure the team knew everything that happened tonight that they needed to know.

"Don't…please…stay…" She sounded so unsure of herself, like she didn't want to say the words for some reason, but needed to keep him here with her.

"I'm right here Jen, I'm not leaving again, go back to sleep." He willed her to hear what he was saying as he brought his free hand up to gently stroke her head as he had done earlier to sooth her.

It was mere seconds later that he felt her grip slacken as her breathing deepened. He waited, debating what he should do; stay here with her incase she woke up again, or go out to the team and talk to them…his body made the decision for him when it refused to move from her side.

"Gibbs!" He heard Ziva call, and waiting to catch her before she accidentally woke Jen up, he quickly and quietly made his way out of his bedroom and towards the living room where he knew Ziva was.

"Shhh, she's asleep." He warned knowing how pissed she was at him. She looked around for a minute before signaling for him to follow her into his basement.

"Look, Zi…"

"No, I am only going to ask once. Are you going to be too distracted tonight to make sure nothing else happens to Jenny, because if so, tell me now. I will not let anything else happen to her today, tomorrow, or ever as long as I can help it, and if you don't give a damn, then tell me so I can take her home with me where she will be looked after!" She still didn't yell it, but rather than emotionless as it had been earlier, it held so much anger and accusation that Gibbs refused to interrupt.

He knew she had to get it off her chest, and he already knew it was his fault; he needed to hear it as much as Ziva needed to say it.

"So tell me Gibbs, do you give a damn about Jenny or…" This time however Gibbs did interrupt.

"You know I do Ziva…"

"Do I? Because the Gibbs I know would never hang up when 'Jenny' and 'something wrong' is mentioned in the same sentence…"

"It wasn't me that hung up Ziva…"

"Either you hung up, or you allowed her to do it…"

"Ziva!" Gibbs warned when her voice level started to rise.

"You are Gibbs, never before has anyone been in danger when you were supposed to be protecting them. But now, Jenny comes home, Jenny, the person you used to protect with your life and more! And you know what happens? She gets raped! She gets raped while you were supposed to be protecting her! And you say you care about her!" Ziva yelled, yet, not loud enough to where it would penetrate further than the basement walls.

Gibbs just stood there watching Ziva, the woman who rarely showed any pain. She was about to break down, Gibbs realized it wasn't just Jenny he had hurt tonight, but Ziva as well, probably his whole team, he had let all of them down, Abby was right, he was a bastard!

"Ziva…I'm sorr…"

"What the hell happened, Gibbs!" Ziva asked in a voice that showed Gibbs she needed to know.

"I got distracted…" He said not wanting Ziva to know how or with whom, even though he knew she was going to ask, even before she interrupted him.

"With what?"

"Whom…Ziva, it's with whom." He knew she'd make the connection, realized the exact moment she did when her features turned from a 'needing to know' look to an 'I cannot believe you' look.

She turned on her heel and started to make her way towards the stairwell when Gibbs stopped her by grabbing her arm.

"Ziva, wait!" Gibbs said wanting her to know everything.

"What do you want me to say Gibbs? Jenny was raped because you could not keep it in your pants for one night!" She spat at him while turning and stepping closer to him.

"Yes, but I went to her room when I realized it wasn't Allison I was sleeping with…"

"Then you would have noticed Jenny get dragged out of her bed…" Ziva said confused, if he wasn't having sex with Hart, but with Jenny, then how did Kort get her…

"No, Ziva, that didn't come out right. I was sleeping with Hart, but it wasn't who I was picturing I was sleeping with…" okay, he was starting to feel a little uncomfortable talking about his sex life with someone he thought of like a daughter.

"I do not understand…?" Ziva said still not getting it, why would he sleep with someone when he was picturing someone else…it didn't make any sense!

"It wasn't Allison I wanted sharing my bed, I wanted it to be Jenny. Since she returned, I haven't stopped thinking about her. When Allison started to…seduce…me, I pictured Jenny…look, I know what happened tonight was completely my fault.

"If I hadn't slept with Hart, Jenny wouldn't have heard us, she wouldn't have run out of the house, and Kort wouldn't have been able to get his filthy hands on her, but the fact is I did., but I'm not leaving her again Ziva, ever." He said needing Ziva to understand what had happened, and that Jenny was going to be safe now.

"What about Hart?" Ziva asked believing he meant every word, didn't mean she forgave him, but for now she let it be.

"Ending it tonight…"

"You realize how much pain you caused Jenny?" She asked and Gibbs looked at her with a 'Yes…we just discussed this' look.

"No, I mean before the incidents tonight."

"What?" He asked not understanding.

"You and Hart, today when you were leaving the office together, you kissed her…deeply right in front of her!"

Realization hit him hard, everything was clicking into place; the kiss when they were leaving, Jenny falling apart; well he assumed some of it was because of him, Hart informing Jenny of being roommates, no one talking about her after she died. Everything was falling into place, and there seemed to be one person behind it all; Margaret Allison Hart!

A/N: Sorry that it's another short one, but thought it was the best place to end it, not too much Jibbs, but it's setting the foundation for it to happen…soon hopefully. I know Gibbs is a bit out of character, but I figured if this all really did happen…I mean come one, his track record with women and dealing with them is terrible, so I don't think he would have made the connections before, and for the other part, it's Jen for crying out loud, she's his weakness:) Hope you all liked it, review and let me know what you all thought^.^
