Chapter 22
"I'm gunna kill him" Abby McGee stated as she paced back and forth with little six month old Lucas in her arms. "I mean, what does he think he's doing walking out on you like this?" She asked once again turning on her feet to walk the length of the room once more.
A hand shot out to stop her from moving "Abs can you stop moving it's making me dizzy?" Jenny asked taking a deep breath.
"Oh sure" The younger woman said with a smile before sitting down next to her.
"What did he say when he walked out?" Kate asked putting a hand on her friends shoulder.
"He said he didn't think he could do it and walked out" Jenny stated "I was showing him what I had bought and I guess he just freaked out" she said shrugging her shoulders.
"I'm sure he just needs some time to chill off" Ziva said with a comforting smile as she walked into the lounge and handed her friend a cup of tea.
"Thank you" Jenny nodded to the Israeli before taking a sip of the coffee to calm her nerves.
"You mean cool off" Kate corrected her sister-in-law, "He needs time to cool off".
"Yes that is what I meant" Ziva nodded as she sat in one of the arm chairs. "Why would he not just go work on his boat?" she asked after a moment "Why walk out?"
"No alcohol" Jenny stated "I tipped it all away saying that if I couldn't drink it then he wouldn't" Jenny smiled "Didn't do that for coffee though".
"Well the guys are out looking for him at least that's something" Abby said hugging Luke closer to herself.
"Tell them not to bother, if Jethro wants nothing to do with me and twins, I'm not going to force him Abs and neither are you guys" Jenny said shaking her head. "I'll move my stuff back to George town tomorrow, thank God I didn't sell the house yet and maybe eventually I'll move back to LA or maybe England" she shrugged her shoulder.
"You can't leave" Kate, Ziva and Abby all squealed at the same time leaping from their seats
"We won't let you" Abby added with hands on her hips "You're here for good now" it almost sounded like a threat but it warmed Jenny's heart to know that people
"Gibbs loves you he'll come back" Ziva assured the redhead.
Meanwhile…
Leroy Jethro Gibbs sat in the local bar, staring at the tumbler of bourbon in front of him, he had yet to take his first sip of the liquid, he just kept thinking of what he had done, he'd walked out of the house telling the love of his life, women he was going to marry and mother of his children. The minute he'd shut that door he regretted it but was too stubborn to go back.
He knew the longer he sat there mulling over what he had done and how much Jenny probably hatted him at that moment the madder Jenny would be.
"This seat taken?" a familiar voice asked from behind him. Gibbs shook his head and the person sat in the chair opposite him.
"What do you want Tobias?" Gibbs grumbled making eye contact with his friend.
"You're an ass, do you know that" Fornell said angrily to him.
"Yup" Gibbs grumbled once more.
"You have everything and your just throwing it down the drain" Tobias shook his head "I was jealous of you in high school, I once asked Jenny out but she told me no just like she did to the other guys but you just swan in like you own the place and you get the girl no one else ever could"
Gibbs smiled to himself as he thought about the first time he'd walked into the science class room and saw Jenny sitting at the back and just so happened to have a free seat next to her, how they had spent the first couple of Science lessons ignoring one another. Then he remembered the first time he'd spoken to her, she'd walked into the shop and bought a cherryade. "Pretty name for a pretty girl" Gibbs said not realising he'd said it out loud.
"What?" Tobias asked confused.
"Nothing" Gibbs stated shaking his head "How mad do you think she'll be?" Gibbs asked.
"Considering Jenny called Kate who then told Abby who then ordered all the guys including me to look for you I would say she'd been worried more than anything" Tobias said getting up from the table "Go home, go to your pregnant beautiful fiancé and beg her to take you back" he ordered before finally leaving.
With the girls…
"Ok that's great, you're the bed Tobias" Abby said before putting the phone down "Tobias found him at the bar round the corner, he said Gibbs was on his way home, so I think it's time for us to leave" Abby said with a grin.
Ten minutes later and the girls were gone leaving Jenny alone, it had been one busy day. Her back and feet were killing her and she couldn't seem to find a comfortable position to sit in so she decided to take all the baby stuff up to the nursery, maybe it would make Jethro feel better.
"Jen" Gibbs's flowed through the house as he walked in through the door and Jenny walked down the stairs.
"Jethro" she said with a stern look on her face as she stepped off of the bottom step "Before we start this I'm going to need some peanut butter" Jenny groaned before pushing of the banister and making her way to the kitchen where she got the jar of peanut butter out of the cupboard before eating a healthy teas spoonful then nodded for him to talk or whatever.
"I'm really sorry for freaking out on you and the babies it's just I saw double everything and it just freaked me out" Gibbs stated shaking his head "I know it's going to be hard but I know we can do it together" Gibbs said walking over to Jenny.
Jenny closed her eyes for the moment, she really wanted to stay mad at him but he was looking at her with those blue eyes of his, full of real sorrow and guilt with an over whelming amount of love. "I'm scared too but we both got us like this, it takes two to tango" Jenny stated crossing her arms across her chest.
"Jen don't think for a second I regret anything…I just got freaked out and I promise it will never happen again" Gibbs tried once again to get her to not be as mad at him.
Jenny pursed her lips together and sighed "How do I know that the minute that things get tough that you're not just gunna walk out again?" she asked pushing passed him and headed to the lounge.
"I will spend the rest of my life proving to you that I won't leave you or our children ever again" Gibbs stated with a smile once Jenny came closer to him. She just couldn't stay mad at him.
Gibbs wrapped an arm around her waist and held her tight against his chest "Leroy Jethro Gibbs I swear if you leave again I will leave you and take the twins with me and you will never get to see them" Jenny said pulling away to look at him.
"I won't leave ever" Gibbs assured her placing a kiss to her forehead. Meanwhile Jenny felt a flutter in her stomach; her hand went straight to where the movement came from "You ok Jen?" he asked noting her hand on her stomach.
"I think one of the babies just moved" Jenny said in almost disbelief as Gibbs's hands covered hers, he was a little disappointed that he couldn't feel anything yet bit knew he would soon.
"I love you Jen and I love the babies" Gibbs said kissing her lovingly and then placing a kiss to her belly. He had it all and he knew he was one lucky man, he would never let any of it slip through his fingers ever.
