Authors Note: Well this is it folks. I cant believe it. I may do a side story of life with Chelsea. Thank you to all who have read and reviewed. I don't own anything but Chelsea and the plot. The song is Chelsea by The Summer Set.
LINE BREAK
The high school auditorium was buzzing with excitement. It was the annual talent show and 17-year-old Chelsea McGee was in it.
"Guys!" Ziva waved to Abby and her husband Lance, "Over here!"
Gibbs, Tony, Damon and his wife Sarah (McGee) were already seated in a row towards the front with their six year old daughter Katie. Ducky was at the end in his wheelchair. Where his body had failed him, his mind had not. He was currently in deep discussion with Jimmy and his wife. Jenny came and sat down next to her husband. Yes, Gibbs got a fourth and final wife. Tony still remained a bachelor, but was getting pretty serious with his girlfriend Grace.
"I cant wait to see what Chelsea's boyfriend can do!" Abby exclaimed, easing her way into a chair as she was five months pregnant.
All the men in Chelsea's life groaned at the mention of her boyfriend. He was a singer and Chelsea was playing the guitar in his band.
"Hush! All of you!" Ziva scolded, "He's a nice boy."
"Yeah!" Jenny added, "And she knew that without having to stare him down."
Gibbs looked away.
"Or give him death threats." Sarah added with a glare at her husband.
"Or quiz him on his knowledge of movies." Abby added, poking Tony.
"Or do an in-depth background check on him." Ziva finished, pinching McGee.
The men had the good sense to look guilty.
"Where are Tali and Jason?" McGee asked.
Ziva pursed her lips and looked around. Their thirteen year old daughter and seven year old son were nowhere to be found.
"I told them to stay with us."
"Mom!"
"Tali! I told you-"
The young brown haired beauty put her hand up. McGee smiled. So much like her mother.
"I know. I know. But we're here now."
The lights in the auditorium dimmed.
"Both of you sit and be quiet." Ziva commanded, sitting down next to McGee.
The principle took the stage.
"Welcome all to Webster High School's annual talent show. I am pleased to announce our first act…The Wild Night's!"
The crowd cheered as Mac Knight took the stage with Chelsea and the others.
"Hey everybody!" the blond cutie said, "This song goes out to my girlfriend Chelsea!"
Ziva could feel all the men tense and rolled her eyes.
"Five, six, seven, eight!"
Let's take this back two thousand five Drinks are pouring, girls so fine So many dimes, got dollars signs And there she goes right on the spot Got a taste so sweet I swear this beat Will make you wanna drop She wears a new dress everyday No, she won't stop making the crowd scream I can't hear anything, but hey, hey It's Miss L.A. again, again

Chelsea, Chelsea, are you feeling me now? Chelsea, Chelsea, I think it's 'bout time We get down, get down There ain't no stopping us now Chelsea, Chelsea, tell me you love me Chelsea, Chelsea, are you feeling me now? Chelsea, Chelsea, I think it's 'bout time We get down, get down There ain't no stopping us now Get down, get down, I want more The crowd roared as the song came to an end.
"Thank you!"
Chelsea set down her guitar and ran to her boyfriend and kissed him.
When she heard the shouts of objection, she knew where her family was.
"Oh for heavens sake." she cried.
LINE BREAK
As soon as the show ended, Chelsea ran to her parents.
"Mom! Dad!"
She hugged them, then the rest of her family.
"You were wonderful!" Abby shouted, squeezing her.
"Yeah, great job Chel-belle." Tony added.
"Thanks Dino." Chelsea said, she still called him that.
"Not bad dork." Tali added.
"Shut up T." Chelsea glared at her sister.
"Enough." Gibbs barked, giving Chelsea a small hug.
Chelsea squeezed back.
"Thanks grandpa."
Gibbs smiled. He was so happy when Chelsea started calling him that. So did Tali and Jason. He never thought he would get to hear that after Kelly died. But Ziva was like his daughter. Katie Werth called him that too. Damon was like his son just like Tony and McGee. He couldn't wait until Abby had her son. He loved being a grandfather.
Mac was walking over to them.
"Easy boys." Jen warned.
"Hi everybody." he said, coming to put his arm around Chelsea, covinently missing McGee's glare.
Abby hugged him.
"You were great sweetie."
Ziva elbowed McGee.
"Yeah, uh, really great." McGee said, unenthused.
Chelsea rolled her eyes.
"Dad, can Mac go out to dinner with us?" she asked, giving him the puppy eyes.
McGee melted. His girls had the best puppy eyes.
"Fine."
"How does she do that?" Jason asked Jimmy, who shrugged.
LINE BREAK
They all met up at restaurant close to the school. Chelsea looked at the size of her family and smiled. They were so strange. Chelsea knew what had happened to her real mom and sometimes she felt sad about it. But she loved the mom and dad she got. And the family that came with them. Granted she would love to kill her brother and sister sometimes, but that was normal. But she knew she was loved all around. She knew her uncle Damon almost died for her, and secretly, he was her favorite uncle.
She had a great life. Great family, great friends, and amazing boyfriend. He could withstand her father, uncles and grandfathers. Now that itself made him a keeper.
Chelsea felt Mac take her hand. She also felt several pairs of eyes on them. She sighed. She was just going to have to deal with it.
"I love you guys!" she called.
"We love you too Chelsea!" the family chorused back.
"I love you Mac." she whispered.
"I love you to Chels." Mac whispered back.
McGee was watching them.
"What do you think they're whispering about?" he asked Ziva.
"Leave them alone." she hissed back.
McGee smiled. He loved getting a rise out of her. All was as it should be.
