Gibbs closed the front door behind him, and leaned against it with his eyes closed for a moment. Then he slowly began making his way up the stairs. He paused outside his daughter's rooms, opening the doors to glance in. Lizzie was asleep with her duvet pulled under her chin and her thumb resting on her lip. In Ava's nursery, his baby girl was sound asleep, one hand around her toy giraffe's neck.
Jenny lay asleep on her side of the bed, the covers half pushed back. Gibbs pulled the covers up over her shoulder, then moved quietly to the bathroom to change. As he slipped under the covers, Jenny stirred.
"Jethro?" she mumbled.
"Shh Jen, it's me. I'm home," he whispered, kissing her cheek. "I'm home."

So what did you think? Reviews are very welcome! Also, tell me if you want me to continue the story with a sequel. The idea I've had so far includes a wedding, a baby, and lots of TIVA and JIBBS. Thanks to everyone who's reviewed so far and stuck with this the whole way through.
