Ok so I'm going to apologise now if Jenny is OOC in this chap because today I watched a film called 'Just desserts' with Lauren Holly in it and since then I haven't been able to get back into the Jenny mind set even after watching an episode of season 3 NCIS on you tube, so once again sorry.
On with the story….
Chapter 16
Weeks later at the beginning of January Gibbs woke up to something warm snuggling into his side, thinking it was Jenny, Gibbs didn't mind he put it down to her hormones, only when he heard footsteps come into the room did his eyes shoot open only to be met by innocent brown.
"Look Jethro I think Angel likes you" Jenny said patting the west highland puppies head as she passed her on the bed.
"Sure you don't want to change her name to satin?" Gibbs asked moving away from the little demon dog, ever since they had brought her home she'd eaten his socks, shoe laces and worst of all Gibbs had caught her gnawing at the wooden frame of his boat yet his fiancé was determined her name would be Angel.
"Oh stop" Jenny said shooting Gibbs a smile as she opened her wardrobe looking for something to wear with her now slightly showing baby bump and it made sense that she was showing sooner know they knew they were having twins. "You're just worried I'll start preferring her than you" she mumbled just as she felt familiar arms around her waist and his hand rest on her rounding stomach.
"How are you today?" he asked placing a kiss to her neck and then shoulder.
"Fine, nervous but other than that" Jenny gave him a weak smile.
Today was the day that would make or break all she'd spent the last twenty years to achieve, today they would tell the sec-nav about the twins and being engaged both knew it looked bad, that Jenny had been director for less than six months and had already broken one of the main rules of being the director, she was sleeping with a subordinate and having his babies though they hoped that if they explained their history and that they were getting married it wouldn't lose Jenny her job.
"Everything will be fine Jen" Gibbs reassured her "And if something does happen, you've always got me and the guys, we'll support you" he placed another kiss on her neck as he finished his sentence.
Jenny leaned into his touch "You know that you and the babies mean more to me than anything right?" the redhead asked, feeling guilty about how worried she was about her job.
She felt Gibbs smile against her neck "Yep" he mumbled before moving his hand on her stomach "How are they today?" he asked.
"From what I can tell they are fine" she smiled at him.
"I'm going to hit the shower" he pressed a kiss to her cheek before leaving the room.
Fifteen minutes later Gibbs walked back into the bedroom with a towel wrapped around his waist and his hair still damp from the shower to find Jenny putting on a pink blouse having already wearing black trousers.
"Do I look pregnant?" she asked turning to face him as he walked into the room.
"You look beautiful as always" he smiled at her.
"That's not what I asked" Jenny stated her hands on her hips and pursing her lips together.
"No you look normal, no one will know" he stumbled to try and say the right thing and was rewarded with a beaming smile from Jenny.
"Come on Angel" she said picking up the little ball of fluff and walking out of the bedroom, Angel yapped at Gibbs as she and Jenny passed him, Gibbs glared at the little devil in disguise making her whimper and snuggle into Jenny's arms.
Twenty minutes later Gibbs walked into the kitchen minding not the tread on the puppy that was eating her breakfast.
Jenny was sitting at the kitchen table reading the newspaper while cradling a mug of tea and there was an empty plate next to her, he sighed happy to see that she was eating.
Gibbs walked over and sat down opposite her "What time is the meeting?" he asked making her lover the paper so her gaze could meet his.
"Eleven, he couldn't do face to face so MTAC will have to do" she gave him a smile "Do you think I should give up NCIS once the kids are born?" Jenny asked.
Gibbs sighed he understood why she would want to, it would give her time to raise the children and spend more time with them but then she'd worked so hard to get to where she was and was good at her job. "Jen it's up to you, I'll love and support you no matter what" he said taking her left hand and rubbing his thumb over the ring and gazed lovingly into her eyes.
The sweet moment was ruined by Gibbs's mobile ringing, he pulled out the infernal piece of technology and flipped it open "Gibbs" he barked. Jenny could hear Tony's voice on the other end telling her fiancé that they had a case "Yeah I'll meet you there" The silver haired man groaned before putting the phone down. "Dead marine, I better go" he stumbled getting up out of the chair "I'll be back by eleven, will you be ok driving?" he asked as he fumbled to put on his coat and then he thought of the icy January roads.
"Yeah, I'll get Stanley to drive me" she promised before giving him a quick kiss on the cheek "Be safe" she said waving him off before grabbing her phone and calling her detail.
At just about quarter to eleven Gibbs and his team strolled into the NCIS headquarters with all the evidence from the scene.
Gibbs let out a sigh of relief when he noted the time, he wasn't late, "McGee get the evidence to Abby, Tony check bank records of the victim and Ziva background check, I'll be with Jenny in MTAC if you need me" the older man said before hurrying to the stairs and then took two at a time.
As he approached Jenny's office Cynthia informed him that Jenny was expecting him and so as usual he walked in like he owned the place.
Gibbs stopped in his tracks and was surprised to find Jenny sitting at her desk looking through a baby magazine instead of reviewing case files "Where did you get that from?" He asked, he hated magazines like that it would fill the soon to be mother's head with silly things that would just make them worried about the baby.
"Abby and Kate suggested it, apparently it helped them a lot" she smiled at him
"Director sec-nav is on for you in MTAC" Cynthia's voice was heard from the doorway.
Gibbs approached Jenny and picked up the magazine and lifted her elbow and helping her up out of her chair and then escorted her out of her office and across the catwalk, his hand possessively on the small of her back.
"Could you please leave us, I can work the controls" Jenny asked the technicians, they nodded before walking out.
"Show time" Gibbs whispered into Jenny's ear as the feed was being patched through, the redhead didn't get to reply as the secretary of the navy appeared on the screen.
"Ah Jennifer, what has Gibbs done now?" he asked with a slight chuckle. Well at least he was in a good mood, that's a start.
"Umm well that's the thing sir…" Jenny began to fidget nervously "We…Jethro and I…" she began motioning to herself and Gibbs.
"Were getting married sir" Gibbs said taking Jenny's hand in his and entwining their fingers, Jenny was very grateful he was there.
"This is a little bit fast isn't it, you've barley known each other for six months" the secretary replied
"Actually it's been more of twenty years" Jenny said with a smile.
"I don't follow you" the older man said confused.
"Jenny and I have known each other since high school, we dated for almost a year but then she moved away and we kept in touch" Gibbs explained it as simply as he could.
"Well umm this is understandable, I think we can work with the press on this one, as long as you keep it out of the office, I don't see why you should continue your relationship" the sec-nav gave them both a smile.
"There's something else" Gibbs said noting the shocked expression on his boss's boss's face and how much more nervous Jenny looked.
"Oh?" he asked raising and eyebrow at the pair.
Gibbs gave Jenny's hand another squeeze before saying "Were expecting twins" he could help the grin on his face.
"Well…congratulations" Sec-nav wasn't sure what to say "I have another meeting I need to attended, we can talk about maternity and paternity leave another day" he said before cutting the feed.
"Well that went well" Gibbs chuckled pressing a kiss to Jenny's forehead, he automatically felt her relax. Then once again Gibbs's phone went off, "Got to go need to solve the case" he said giving her a smile.
"Yeah, go catch the bag guys, talk to you later" she said before giving him a quick kiss.
But they didn't get to talk for the rest of the working day, the case consumed Gibbs, it went from a murder to a missing child case within a couple of hours and he wasn't going to rest until the little boy was found.
At 1900 hours Jenny walked into the bullpen and straight to her partner's desk "My details going to drive me home, are you ok?" she asked noting that Gibbs wasn't even looking at her.
"Yeah, we've almost closed the case, I'll be home in a couple of hours" he said watching as she nodded then walked away.
Jenny's detail brought her home safe and sound. Once seeing to Angel and making sure the puppy was ok, Jenny decided to take a bubble bath.
As she soaked in the tub, she ran her fingers across her slightly rounded abdomen, she couldn't help but smile as she thought of the two lives she and Jethro created were living inside her, growing inside her. She knew that Jethro would be a great father as he was a great at looking after Luke and with Logan and Kate and Ari's girls, but she wasn't so sure about herself would she be a good mother or would she screw it up? Both her mother and Jethro's mother's died when they were young so she didn't really have anyone to turn to for advice other than Kate, Ziva and Abby.
The three women had been completely supportive and helpful to her in regards to being pregnant and becoming a mother, especially Kate having had twins herself. She knew she was lucky to have such a support system of friends that she considered family that loved her and she loved them even though the years they'd been apart.
Jenny soon felt the water begin to chill and so got out an changed into a comfy pair of pyjamas before settling in bed with her magazine from earlier and Angel snuggled up next to her moments later she could help her eyes as they started to droop.
Gibbs arrived home in the early hours of the morning, the case was closed and the boy was safe at home with his mother.
He quietly entered the house making sure not to wake her and then made his way to their bedroom.
A smiled crept onto his face as he saw Jenny curled up her baggy pyjamas with the magazine laying on her stomach and Angel curled up on the edge of the bed.
He soon changed from his work clothes and found his old NCIS t-shirt only to notice that one of the sleeves had a small bite mark out of it, he turned to face the dog and shook his head, he should have chosen one of the other puppies, he shouldn't have been fooled by this dogs charms and good looks, it was the devil in disguise.
Moments later he lifted up the half asleep puppy and put her in her own bed that Jenny had insisted go at the bottom of theirs, before pulling back the covers and climbing into the bed. He smiled as he felt Jenny move closer to him a snuggle into his side and muttered his name, he pressed a quick kiss to her hair before falling into a content sleep.
TBC…
Kind of rubbish chapter.
So i've decided that, as some of you may know I'm a twin 'not identical' and I'm going to use how me and my sister were born as how Jenny and Gibbs twins are so I hope when the time comes you'll like it.
I would also like any and all suggestions on things that should happen leading up to her giving birth.
Another thing yes my twin is a fanfic author under the name Tivafivanatomy and writes for NCIS and grey's anatomy and some of her stories involve Jibbs so please check out her stuff it's better than mine I swear.
Lastly please review it means a lot.
