A/N: Just to tell you, this is set like MONTHS after Abby's parents die, so she's been living with them for ageeeeeees.
"Gibbs! Jenny!" Abby burst through the front door of the Gibbs'… no, their house.
"Abs?" Gibbs ran up the stairs from the basement and looked up at her from the stairs.
"You'll never believe what just happened at the park ohmigod Gibbs is amazing do you know what happened you'll never guess!" Abby took a breath, and Gibbs took that space to get a word in.
"What happened? And McGee, come on in." He beckoned in the likeable geek.
"You know Kate and Ari? Kate, Caitlin Todd, Tony cousin and Ari is Ziva's brother you know who they are yes?" Abby asked, and Gibbs rolled his eyes. McGee stifled a laugh.
"I know who they are Abby." Gibbs smiled at her.
"Well, Ari proposed to Kate!" Abby exclaimed gleefully. Jenny wandered out of the kitchen after hearing the news over what she was watching on television.
"That's excellent, isn't it Jethro?" Jenny smiled broadly as Abby bounced up and down, her black pigtails mimicking her movements. A smile appeared at the corner of Gibbs' mouth at the news.
"Excellent," he agreed, "just excellent."
"Gibbs?" Abby asked, and Gibbs could tell she wanted something.
"Yes, Abs?" He said, raising his eyebrows slightly as he waited for the question.
"Can I go out for dinner with Ari, Kate, Tony, Ziva and McGee to celebrate?" Gibbs ruffled her hair.
"Of course." He told her, and she grinned.
"May McGee sleep over after?" Abby put on her cutest puppy dog eyes, causing a smile to hover over Gibbs' lips. He kissed her cheek.
"Of course." He agreed, and she ran upstairs to get changed, pulling McGee behind her.
"Thank you!" She drew out the word as she ran up the stairs.
Twenty minutes later, they returned downstairs. Abby was now wearing a tight, low cut black dress. Gibbs walked up from the basement when he heard them coming down the stairs. He raised his eyebrows at Abby's dress.
"You're going out in… that?" He said, and Abby nodded.
"I'm wearing a coat." She added, as if that would make the dress a lot less revealing. Gibbs chuckled.
"Off you go then." He said, propelling the pair toward the door. Wordlessly, he slipped some notes into Abby's hand. She glanced at it. Forty dollars.
She ran back and hugged Gibbs tightly, before a car horn alerted the arrival of the others. She turned to the door, and dragged McGee off toward the car.
"Thanks dad!" She yelled back as they ran toward the car. The door closed behind them. Gibbs turned to see Jenny leaning against the doorframe to the kitchen.
"Did she…?" he asked, his mouth gaping.
"She did." Jenny replied, equally surprised. She moved forward and Gibbs kissed her forehead.
"Should we ask her tonight?" He asked Jenny, holding her to him.
"Why not?" Jenny said, shrugging slightly, a happy smile on her lips.
When they arrived at the restaurant, an Italian restaurant called 'La Bella Ragazza', as recommended by Tony. Ari and Kate were already there, and had secured the group a good table looking out over DC, where they would be able to see the sunset later that night.
They had spent ages in the park, talking and planning, sunbathing on the grass, chasing each other around the park and collapsing in a heap afterwards. They had finally left once Tony started complaining he was hungry, so they arranged to have a celebratory dinner later.
In true formal fashion, Tony sat next to Ziva who sat next to Ari who sat next to Kate who sat next to McGee who was sitting next to Abby. Tony knew who ran the restaurant, and had already bargained them a 50% discount.
Abby had a quiet word with the maître d' as he showed her to her seat, and secured them a bottle of his finest champagne, with used up about half of Gibbs' money for her.
"You didn't have to." Kate said, the edges of her eyes creasing as she smiled at the friendly gesture.
"I did." Abby shot back with a grin. Ari plucked the small note which he had noticed attached to the ice bucket.
"To the happy couple." He read out. "Love from, Abby, Timmy, Tony and Ziva."
"Oh, Abby." Kate suddenly felt like she wanted to cry at what Abby was doing for them.
"Thank you, Abigail." Ari said, leaning over and squeezing her hand, in what Abby understand was like a hug from the Israeli man.
The menus came out and they ordered.
The starters were served, proceeding to the main course.
Soon, everyone was absolutely stuffed of Parma ham, pasta and pizza.
"And now, dessert." Tony grinned, while Ziva groaned theatrically.
"You are going to have to cut down on your food, you know." She advised him. "Otherwise you are going to look like you are wearing football gear when you are wearing nothing at all." Tony grinned, and then realized it wasn't a compliment.
"Hey!" He protested, and everyone laughed. "Ah well. Compliments of us and the establishment, may your marriage be long and everlasting."
Kate and Ari looked around, and Kate gasped.
Abby whooped loudly, and the other three clapped, causing other diners to look around. Many joined in the clapping.
Two waiters pushed a trolley laden down with a large cake iced with:
"Congratulations, Kate and Ari!"
Kate jumped up and hugged Tony.
"Thank you Tony!" She cried.
"Toda raba, Tony." Ari said, a lot more demure but equally as grateful and please.
Later that night, when Abby and McGee arrived back at her place, Abby found the lights still on, even though it was one in the morning.
"Abby." Jenny heard the door open, and Gibbs jumped off of the couch from where he had been watching Wimbledon.
"We have something to ask you." Gibbs began.
A/N: The tennis bit was in a bow down to Andy Murray who got through to the semi finals after an AMAZING match against Stanislas Wawrinka.
