Tim McGee was a little nervous. Telling his best friend's little sister that he had fallen in love with her... Tony might as well have told her for him. Renee had gone back to work.
"Hey, Renee?" He looked around the empty lab for her. She walked over to him, this time reading him pretty well.
"Yes, Timmy?" She looked up at him, catching his blue-green eyes.
"Umm... Please hear me out on this. I know I dated your sister and it didn't work out, but... I'm... in love with you." He stopped meeting her eyes and suddenly found the floor very very interesting. Renee stopped breathing for a moment before cuddling into his side. He automatically wrapped his arms around her as best as he could. Her blooming baby bump got in the way.
"I guess Tony and Abby knew huh? That's why they left?" Tim nodded, he had her older brother's permission and Abby wanted him and her little sister to be happy. They both had to get back to work, but that could wait. She leaned her head against his chest, listening to the steady, if a little fast, beat of his heart.
"Renee, you know we're all gonna help with the babies right?" His hand rested against her stomach.
"I know. But what if their father wants them. What if he tried to take away my babies?"
"Not gonna happen." "No way in hell" "You won't lose them" "I'll make sure that doesn't happen." "I'll kill him." The teams voices rang out almost in unison. They all would make sure that that wouldn't happen. She was thier family. Tony stepped closer towards his little sister and best friend. Renee looked at all of them as her brother snuck out with McGee.
In the hallway Tony asked how it went.
"It went.. well."
"She say anything?"
"No, but she kinda didn't have to." Tony nudged his shoulder.
"Don't screw this up, McGee. I don't want to have to kill you."
"You won't. I will. If Abby doesn't first." Both men looked over to thier team leader as he walked in. A look passed between all three that conveyed two things. One: all three men loved Renee dearly and two: They all would take care of her.
Tony walked away with one thought in mind: Mission accomplished.
