Kate was brushing her hair when Tim walked in holding her note to him from the night before. She dropped the brush and ushered him all the way into the room closing the door behind them.

"Good you got it. Look, I need you to ask dad to ask your grandparents if we can come over for a visit this weekend."

"Why? I went like two weeks ago. My lungs haven't had time to recover from the smoke I inhaled during the last trip."

"Oh, please you're fine. Grandpa Doug has been puffing on those smelly old cigars since before you were born. As far as I know the smell hasn't killed anyone."

"I guess that's why I'm the one in advance science. Why do you want to go with me?"

"Because Timmy… dad has to work this weekend, Tony is grounded and staying here all weekend will suck. Besides grandma said she wouldn't mind teaching me to knit some more next time I came over. You know we used to do tons of fun stuff together before daddy and Kath got the divorce."

"Okay, so then what'd you need me for? You just call and ask to go over."

"That would just be weird Tim. Can't you just do it for me? Please… pretty please," Kate was laying it on a little thick she knew, but she wasn't Tony and couldn't see how getting all ham-fisted would help her in the long run.

Watching one another for a minute Tim finally caved. "What happens if they say no, or if dad says we can't go?"

"Then you make them say yes! Can you do it?"

"I guess if you say I have to, but I don't want to get in trouble for this Kate."

"You won't…" Kate dropped her voice to a mumble as her youngest brother went to seek out their dad. "…as long as we don't get caught."

Gibbs' Family Kitchen

Tony had been in the kitchen off and on since 0700 which was the exact time he was told to leave his math assignment. Even though the coffee was on he wasn't sure if his dad had already looked at it. Shoveling in Capt'n Crunch he listened for his sister to come down hoping it was before their dad.

Leaping off of the stool he lunged for her pulling her into his sightline.

"What the h…?!"

"Shh, I don't want dad to hear us."

"I would've come closer if you would've asked."

"Look, dad has a lot going on and I've already pissed him off with my grades. This is a BAD time to pull a stunt."

"What stunt? Let me go." Kate pulled her hand from her brother's vice grip.

"The go to the grandparents then sneak off stunt." Tony spoke through a clenched jaw.

"You're being crazy. Besides hating your grades, like that's new, dad's fine. Anyway Tim's upstairs asking right now. Too late."

"Too late for what?" The man's ability to slink into a room still unnerved his children. It also gave him a little perverse pleasure.

Kate eyed her brother pleading with her eyes. Tony's instinct said he was going to regret whatever choice he was about to make. He did it anyway.

"Too late for Kate to call for a ride from Stacey's mom. She's just gonna have to ride the cheese mobile with the rest of us."

"Riding the bus won't kill you. Your brother has book club this morning so I'm dropping him on my way. You two don't miss that bus."

Filling a cup with his favorite brew Gibbs watched his kid's body language to see if he was missing something when he came in the room. His youngest came down heading straight for the cereal.

"Tony is this everything you had to turn in today?" Holding the single sheet of paper between two fingers he awaited a response.

"Yup." Tony mumbled through spoonfuls.

"You want me to check it over for you?" What was sweet about the question was that Tim was being sincere. His brother didn't see it that way at all.

"Yeah right. I don't think so boy genius. Save your energies for your own work." Tony took the work from his father with a slight bit of aggression. Luckily for him it was over looked.

"Grab your gear Tim we need to get moving. Oh, Katie grandma Julie says she can't wait to see you and to bring your knitting needles."

Tony kept thinking 'play it cool kid'.

"Great, I can't wait. She's going to help me make a present for Stacey's birthday."

Kissing his daughter's head Gibbs followed his son out the back door.

They eyed each other a smile creeping across both faces. Could it seriously have been that easy?

"Always be specific when you lie. Way to impress kid… way to impress." Tony held up his spoon in an imaginary toast dripping milk down his arm.

Giving a tiny curtsey and bow Caitlin Gibbs took off back upstairs to finish getting ready. Yelling back down, "I will leave without you, so finish shoveling it in."

Things were going according to plan. She didn't exaggerate either. Kate had her things ready to go in ten minutes and was out the door hearing her brother fumbling behind her. Kate hated being late where Tony tended to behave as if all given times were a mere suggestion.

Tony slunk to the back dreading his exit in front of the school. His boys would crucify him. He had to get his car back even if it meant actually focusing in class, and turning in his work on time. Kate sat next to friends she never got to ride to school with because she hardly ever took the bus. Once Tony got his license the deal for having his own car was that he couldn't be an ass about taking his siblings around. It turned out he was actually pretty gracious about the chauffeuring most times even if Kate was only allowed to speak when spoken to on school grounds. Upper classmen and brothers were weird separately, but combine the two and the weird factor jumped off the charts. He was good for one thing though. When it came to planning a scheme there was no one better Kate thought. Now if she could only be as sure of her other brother's ability to execute.
