"Dad?"

"Hello Leroy." Jenny sat up, looking at the older man. She had never heard anyone call Jethro Leroy, and those who had made that mistake in the past never made it again.

"What are you doing here Jack?"

"Can't I visit my son?"

"Jethro?" Jenny asked confused.

"Jen, this is my father Jackson Gibbs. Jack, this is my wife and mother to my children Jenny Sheppard." Said Gibbs hugging Jenny tightly.

"I think we need to talk." Said Jack looking at his son.

"You've only just realised that?"

Gibbs squeezed jenny's hand to let her know he would be fine. With that she watched as the two older men walked away. Jenny walked over and sat down wither children Cathy was now playing with car whilst ducky was telling Clara a story. The little girl listened intently to the older man probably not understanding a work of it. Cathy saw her mum and smiled. "Mummy, 'ars." She said holding out a car.

"Are you playing with cars Cath?"

"Mummy." She said in a more forcefully as she held out a car.

"You want me to play." The little girl simply nodded. "Say please then, please."

"p…pw…pwe….wes…pwease." when she finally said a word that sounded right she looked at her mum with a big and proud smile on her face. Jenny couldn't hello but smile as she took the car and kissed her daughters hair. The two sat o the mat playing with the car. They made car noises all the time with smiles on their faces. They parked the cars on the checks on the mat. After 10 minutes Jenny kissed her daughters head and got up.

"Ducky would you look after them for a bit. I need to check on something." She said in a hushed voice.

"Of course my dear, is everything okay?"

"Jethro's father is here."

"Ah, and I take it from your tone things are not going well."

"You could say that." With a smile Jenny walked into the house. As soon as she did she was glad that all of their 'family' was outside. Instantly she could hear raised voices coming from the kitchen. She stood outside the door and listened.

"Hand on Jack, you brought a date to the wedding of my wife and child! What the hell did you think it was? A party? They were all I had, they were my everything!"

"I had to move on after your mother, just like you have done."

"But telling me at their funeral!"

"It was my way of dealing with their death's, you forget I lost my grandchild."

"And what about today? Not a word in over a decade then you turn up, why?"

"So I'm not allowed to see my son now."

"Oh! So now you want something to do with me?"

"I always did, you are the one who blocked me out. I mean you're married for gods sakes, didn't you think to tell me?"

"Well Jack, I honestly didn't think that you would care!"

Outside jenny was shocked, she hadn't even known that Jethro still had a family. She sighed and walked in. "Oi!" she shouted louder than both of the men. They looked over. "Gibbs, a word, now!" Jethro knew she meant business and followed her out. She walked into the study. "What the hell was all that about Jethro?"

"IT's old stuff Jen."

"Jethro, why didn't you tell me your father was still around?"

"We haven't spoken in over a decade."

"Why the hell not?"

"Because he brought a date to the funeral of shan and Kel."

"And?"

"And that's not enough Jen?"

"Not for it to last over a decade Jethro – no. Jethro…there are so many arguments I wish had never happened with my dad, but I can't, hell I can't even say sorry to him because he is gone Jethro, my dad is dead. I would give anything to spend just ten more minutes with my father, but i can't, you can. I have neither of my parents nor aunts nor grandparents left Jethro, you do. So make the most of it Jethro, and if you don't not only are you stupid but sleeping on the couch." She said that and walked out. For once he did as he was told and went into the kitchen. Jenny hadn't gone outside, but hid so that she could find out if he had done as she'd said. Which he had.

Jenny walked out and into the garden where she sat in between Ducky and Tom. "They talking?" asked Ducky.

"They were arguing. I told Jethro if he didn't talk then he was sleeping on the couch." Tom laughed but ducky looked at her. "I also told him I would give anything to have just 10 more minutes with my dad and tell him I'm sorry for our arguments, but I can't – he can."

"Did it work Jenny?" asked Tom.

"Yeah, actually done as he's told for once."

"Maybe I should threaten that you'll make him sleep on the couch when he annoys the press." All three of them laughed at the comment.

"Somehow I don't think he would believe you. "

"Ah, no I'm not a red head."

Jenny looked around to see her husband. She stood up and he hugged her. "You alright?" she whispered in his ear.

"thank you." Was all he said before kissing her passionately on the lips.

"Oi! Boss get a room would you? There are little girls watching!" shouted burley. Both laughed before signalling to Tom and Ducky who covered the little girls eyes as Jenny and Jethro kissed again. This time her hadn't went around his neck and his around her waist. When they broke they were breathless and laughing.

"Too hard to resist Stan." Said Jenny. He mumbled something as he went to get a drink. Jenny heard someone caught and looked around to see Jethro's father.

"I think we may have gotten off on the wrong foot. I'm Jack." He said holding out his hand.

"Jenny."

"Thank you."

"What for?"

"For making Jethro talk to me, and for getting him to be happy again. IT means a lot."

"You are more than welcome. I love Jethro, more than I've ever loved anyone but I'm not going to even attempt to replace Shannon."

"Thank you. Now I hear I have two beautiful grandchildren? May I meet them?"

"Of course." She and Jethro walked over and sat down hand in hand. Jack could see his son was truly in love, especially when Jethro lifted Jenny up and put her on his knee instead of her sitting next to him. Jack joined them on the floor.

"Dadm this is Catherine Louise and Clarissa Jasmine, or Cathy and Clara. Cath, clara, this is granddad Jack." The two looked at him.

"Hello." Said Jack.

"G…ga…gad….gangad!" said Clara looking pleased with hersef as she smiled at him.

"Hello Clara."

"G…Ga…ga…grag." Cathy attempted not wanting to be oudone. She then looked at her dad and granddad. "Pap Jack!" she said with a smirk. Jenny laughed at the little girl. Jack just smiled.

"Hello Cathy."

Jack stayed with the family that weekend. IT was awkward at first, between father and son, but by the time it was back to work things were as normal as their family ever would be. Jack left on the Sunday night with a smile on his face. Jethro felt like a weight had been lifted off of his shoulders whilst Jenny was pleased to see her husband more relaxed.

After Jenny had put the girls to bed she went to join Jethro in their bed. She rested her head on his chest. "I think Stan is going to get promoted." He said out of the blue.

"I know."

"How-"

"Marrow, he was talking to him earlier. I doubt it'll be for a few months."

"Means I have to train a new probie, no doubt."

"Stop moaning."

"Yes ma'am." He said in a joking manner.

It was a weekend they would both treasure, then again they always did treasure time together, because if they didn't, they knew too well it could all be taken away in a blink of an eye.

Hope it was okay!
