"Shalom, Hollis." Ziva annouced as she walked into the kitchen, kissing Hollis on both cheeks.
"Shalom, Ziva. How are you this evening."
"Very well. Fit as a violen yes?
"Fiddle, Ziva. Your fit as a Fiddle." Gibbs corrected as he heard his cell ring.
Gibbs steped out of the room.
"Gibbs"
"Yes Agent Gibbs, this is Bethesda calling. We have some rather unfortunate news for you...."
Gibbs set down the phone just as everyone came to meet him in the living room.
"Jethro is everything ok?" Hollis asked as she went to make herself comfertable on the couch.
"No. No everything is not ok. Ziva! Kate! Abby! Ducky! We need to go to Bethesda, the news is just going to have to wait."
Everyone including Hollis gazed bewildered at Gibbs.
"Do we have a case Gibbs?" Kate asked as she grabbed her purse.
"Nope. We have a friend to visit."
Both Kate and Ziva looked at eachother in surprise. Who could he be talking about. Who could possibily be at Bethesda that they would need to go and see.
"McGee was hit by a drunk driver while he was on his way here." Gibbs explained as he headed to grab his coat.
Abby gasped and ran towards Gibbs.
"Tell me he is ok Gibbs. Tell me everything is going to be ok. McGee can not be hurt that bad. Is he?"
"Abs.. I don't know. That is why we are going to Bethesda." Gibbs moved around Abbys and headed towards the couch.
"Hollis, sweetheart. I am sorry. How about we plan to tell them when McGee gets out?" Gibbs leaned over and planted a kiss to her forehead.
"That is fine Jethro. Right now you all need to just go and check on McGee."
"Do you want to come along? I don't know how long we will be?"
"No that is ok Jethro. I will stay here. I need to put things away and clean up."
"Ok." He leaned over and kissed her mouth before getting up and heading towards the door where the others just recently exited. "Please don't wait up for me. And don't do to much work. I can do somethings when I get home."
"Don't worry so much Jethro, just GO!!"
With that Gibbs exited the door and got into his truck. The team followed close behind as they made their way to Bethesda. Gibbs could not understand why this happened. McGee was a good driver, did he not notice the car?? He was brought out of his thoughts as he pulled into the hospital parking lot. He found the closest spot and hurried out of the truck towards the doors.
As Gibbs reached the second floor he was greeted by Dr. Brad Pitt.
"Aww You must be Agent Gibbs?"
"I am. How is he Dr?"
"Timothy McGee has suffered a concussion and a broken left arm. The car hit him driver side and he is very lucky to be where he is now."
Gibbs combed his hand through his hair as he listened to everything the Dr. had to say. Just as the Dr. was finishing up, the rest of the team finally joined up with Gibbs.
"Jethro, how is our young Timothy doing?" Ducky asked once he reached Gibbs.
"Not so good Duck. The Dr. said he has a concussion and a broken left arm. Could you double check their finding just to be sure?" Gibbs eyes looked at Ducky breifly before Ducky announced;
"No problem Jethro, be back momentarly."
As Ducky walked off Gibbs turned to his team. Abby looked like she was about to fall over. Kate and Ziva both had expression of concern fill their face.
"McGee will be fine." Gibbs assured them, even though he did not truly know this to be true. He just hated seeing his team like this. Abby crossed infront of Kate and Ziva and wrapped her arms around Gibbs neck and cried into his shoulder.
"How could this of happened Gibbs. Timmy is always careful. Why? Why did it have to be Timmy?" Abby continued to sob into Gibbs shoulder. Gibbs pulled her back so he could look into her eyes.
"Abs, he is not dead. He just has a concussion and a broken arm. He will be fine given time to heal. We need to be happy that it was nothing worse and give him the support he needs to get better."
Abby smiled up at Gibbs and went to sit in a chair close by, soon followed by Kate and Ziva. Gibbs could not sit. He wanted to see McGee. He wanted to be there for his 'son'. His wish was soon granted when Ducky came back followed by Dr. Pitt.
"Jethro we have some good news! Our young Timothy has regained conciousness and asking to see people." Ducky announced once he reached the group.
Gibbs stopped pacing immediatly when he heard those words come out of Ducky's mouth. He looked at the Dr.
"He may have visitors, however, we would like to keep it to one at a time to keep the stress level down."
Gibbs nodded, he was going to be the first one and everyone else knew that. He turned to look back at his team and gave them a smile as he turned to follow the Dr.
When Gibbs reached the outside of McGee's door he felt this lump in his chest drop. He didn't know what to expect. Gibbs turned away from the Dr and headed into the room.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
McGee sat quietly in the hospitable bed awaiting his first visitor. He knew that it would be Gibbs. Gibbs made sure he was always the first one in the room when someone from his team was hurt.
McGee heard footsteps outside the room and when he looked up he was met with his boss's face.
"Oh Hey Boss.."
"McGee, how you feeling?" Gibbs asked as he made his way over to the chair next to his bed.
"I have felt better boss. I know you don't like apologies but I fee..."
"Ahh Hell McGee, if you know how I feel about them, then why are you trying. This was not your fault. No one could have stopped this from happening. The main thing is that you are alive and ok.. The Dr. says that if all your test turn out ok you can be out of here by tomorrow."
McGee looked rather taken aback by his boss's statement. He had never really heard his boss say more then a couple of words to him.
"Thanks Boss." McGee looked out the window of his room, then turned back to look at Gibbs.
"I guess I ruined your plans for tonight didn't I?"
"Yeah ya did. But it is ok. Hollis and I have decided that once you are out we will plan it again. It was no big deal. We were more worried about you."
Gibbs got up to head for the door.
"Abby, I think is dieing to come in and see you so I am going to send her in. When and if they release you tomorrow Abby is going to be calling Kate to pick you both up. She will be bringing you over to my house. No arguments."
"Yes Boss." McGee answered, not really understanding why.
Gibbs turned and headed out the door. He needed to get back to Hollis. He was happy that McGee was safe now. He got to where Abby, Kate and Ziva were. Ducky must have headed home early to take care of his mother.
"Abby you can go in there now." and with that Abby zoomed past Gibbs towards McGee's room.
He turned and looked at the others. "You two can choose to stay here and wait your turn, however I don't think that is going to be anytime soon, or you can head home. McGee should be getting out tomorrow and Abby will be call you Kate to bring them to my place. We still want to tell you all the big news."
Ziva and Kate both noded and headed out with Gibbs towards their cars. They decided they would have a chance to see McGee tomorrow and Abby was staying there with McGee so he was fine.
As Gibbs was about to get into his car he yelled over and Kate.
"Kate, I need you to run to Abbys apartment and grab two sets of clothes and over night things and run them by my house sometime."
Kate agreed and headed off with Ziva towards the car.
Gibbs drove fast home thinking only of Hollis. When he reached his front door he saw that the lights were still on so she must still be up.
He quietly walked in and set his keys by the door. As he hung up his coat he peeped into the kitchen to see Hollis just finishing wiping down the counter's.
Gibbs walked up behind her and wrapped his arms around her.
"I thought I told you to leave things for me." He leant down and kissed her neck.
"Well Jethro, I didn't know how long you would be and I was bored. I wanted something to do." Hollis turned around so she could face Gibbs.
"How is McGee?" she asked fear in her voice. She had come to care for team since she first started dating Gibbs.
"He suffered a slight concussion and his left arm is broken."
Hollis was thankfull that it was nothing more servere. She turned and set the rag in the sink and grabed a bottle of water out of the fridge. Gibbs grabbed a beer and headed along with Hollis towards the couch.
"So what are the plans now Jethro?" she asked as she put a hand on her belly.
"McGee should be getting out tomorrow and Kate is going to bringing them both here. I figured we could tell them all then. It would brighten up McGee's day." he gently put his hand over hers and leaned down to place a kiss on her belly.
"This is ours Hollis. I am so proud to know that I have a chance to be a father again."
Hollis smiled. She knew that Gibbs always had the best interest of his team at heart, and with that, she also knew that he would be a great father to their child.
Just as they were about to call it a night, there was a knock at the front door. Gibbs knew who is was and got up to answer it.
"Thank you Kate I will see you tomorrow."
Back in the livingroom he heard Hollis asking who was at the door.
"It was just Kate. I had her swing by Abby's place and pick up two outfits for her."
"Two? Why would she need two outfit?"
"You don't think that I have forgoten her actions this morning have you? She will still be staying with us. It will just be tomorrow night instead."
Hollis understood that this needed to be done, but she did feel a little sorry for Abby. Hopefully this time she will learn.
A/N: I know it took me forever to put this chapter up. I am horriable about updating. Please do not get mad at me. Classes have ended for a little while I have some time to sit down and update a couple of chapters. I hope to have the next one up within the next couple of days.. Earliest tomorrow night!!
I do hope that everyone is liking my story's and I would really like you to review and tell me what you think. Even if it is just one word. "good" or "Bad" Thanks again to all those that have been reviewing it is because of you that there are still chapters coming..
Gibbs: Man you are so slow when it comes to typeing updates.
Me: Yeah well try living my life and write great stories.. It is not easy..
Gibbs: Maybe more head slaps will help your brain to think faster. Or maybe I should have McGee write your stories. He seems to be faster.
Me: No thank you. Neither is necessary. I am back on track now boss.
Gibbs: *smack*
Me: Hey I said I didn't need it!!!!
Gibbs: Yeah I know, but they make me feel better.. Now on with the next chapter!!
