'Come on, lets go,' Gibbs tried again.
'No, you go, your team is like your family. Spend Christmas Eve with them!' Jenny replied.
'Well, you know I would but A. your just as much if not more my family then them… and B. Abby said If I leave my family Mommy-less she would personally kill me! You know those spikes aren't just for show!' he quipped smoothly.
'Mommy-less?..........' the director asked looked puzzled but wistful.
'Yes, I'm Daddy, your Mommy, Ducky's Grandpa and Ziva, Tony, McGee and Abby are our inept, excitable children.'
'Mommy, Daddy, US? But how does she know?'
' Well to use her words, and I quote "You two might think your beign secretive but for a Mommy and Daddy all your sexual tension is not quite G rated. Therefore, you shall be the Daddy and your lovely director shall be the Mommy!" So come on, our children are itching to see their parents. Let's not disappoint them!' He said turning on the Gibbs glare when she didn't budge 'If you're going to be difficult…' he said trailing off slightly as he began to stalk towards her.
'LEROY JETHRO GIBBS! PUT ME DOWN RIGHT NOW!' She shrieked and continued to yell and scream all the way to Abby's lab while she was slung over his shoulder. Bottom in the air, head in his back legs hanging down his chest. 'One Mommy.' He said placing his beloved before his gothic little girl.
'Yay! Mommy!' squeaked Abby, pulling her into a famous bone crushing hug. 'Geez Gibbs, we were wondering what was taking so long, we thought you got side tracked when we heard all the screaming.' DiNozzo said. All three children laughed, Gibbs glanced at both Ducky and Jenny before all three of them slapped the nearest children on the back of the head. 'Children, minds out of the gutters!' said Jenny half firmly, half teasing. This caused the two older men to burst out laughing. This humour was cut short when Jen leaned over to slap Gibbs.
'When you jumped into this parenting business I was expecting you to wear the trousers when it came to discipline! You certainly did when we were making them!' she snapped, this caused the poor man, who had been trying hard to be serious while he was being scolded by his lover, to collapse on the floor laughing. Everyone else braced themselves against something or someone while they laughed, even the Director chuckled when she realised the double meaning to her words, she had merely been referring to minutes previously in her office. Once everybody had regained control of their bodies they anxiously watched for Gibbs response. He clambered to his feet and surprisingly said, 'Ahhhh, but that's why you love me!' and softly kissed her but was cut short when suddenly a blinding flash of light lit up the room, Gibbs looked around the oom for the sorce of the light and saw a very guilty looking Ziva who was holding a camera, 'It's our first family Christmas, I thought I should document it.'
'Ohhhhhhhhhhh' sighed Gibbs 'I get it' then he leaned over to Jens ear and hissed 'You wanna give them something to take photos of?' Getting the idea Jen let out a false giggle and ran to the other side of the room 'Get back here! I wasn't finished!' he wined following her .They soon began playing chasings around the lab he finally grabbed her and pressed his lips to hers as they launched into an intense actors kiss, he backed her up against a wall so she was shielded from view they carefully broke away so they still looked joined but instead were just moving here heads appropriately. Jen wound her fingers into his hair. They kept this up for quite sometime, rarely actually making their mouths connect. Ducky eventually cleared his through when Jen began to play with Jethro's shirt buttons to try and remind them that there were other people with them. The pair instantly sprung apart quicker than should've been possible but seeing all the shocked faces glaring at them was to much. They began to laugh and laugh until McGee asked what the joke was.
'Gather around children, father. That is one of the oldest tricks in the acting book, the actors kiss… We learnt this when we were undercover…. Director if you please?' Gibbs said in a very uncharacteristic singsong voice… they began to replay what just happened… 'You see the only time your lips must actually touch is when one of you is about to laugh, never once did we display anything inappropriate…'
The team looked at him, shocked and bemused, Abby was the first to regain use of her voice 'Well, thank you for that…. interesting display of skills, but let's go and eat!'
