Gibbs woke up sniffling about an hour later. He rubbed his eyes with one hand and felt it brush against a firm pillow. He patted it a few times with his brows furrowed. He hadn't opened his eyes till now. He saw Tony's sweatshirt just as Tony spoke.
"So I take it you're awake?" Tony chuckled, feeling more than seeing the nod as he struggled to sit up.
"Why am I laying on you, DiNozzo?" Tony laughed, helping him sit in his spot and also curl his legs.
"Because you fell asleep and your head landed on my shoulder, and…and you were frowning and looked really uncomfortable so…so I turn us around so you'd be comfortable…your legs by the couch and laid on by chest…it was awkward…well I mean our position…I mean, oh you know what I mean." Tony stumbled over his words.
"Yes I do relax Tony, though at least I know I can still intimidate you" He smirked as everyone laughed.
"Always boss" Tony and McGee said, getting a full on smile from Gibbs.
"Good, what's on t.v. now?" he turned from the others faces to Tony's.
"Family Guy" Tony told him and he nodded back.
"We can change it boss if you want" McGee said reaching for the remote.
"No need" He responded and the others looked confused.
"When I last stayed with him he came upstairs when I was watching it. I offered to change it; he just said 'it's fine'. After one episode he couldn't help but laugh his ass off with me." Tony said they nodded back.
They turned back to the t.v. just in time to see Stewie dressed as Darth Vader light saber fighting with Chris as Luke. They were arguing as brothers but the fight dynamics were horrible. It was hilarious the way they used childish words and arguments. They all decided that it was a great show after watching it for about five minutes. They all shared a full, belly splitting laugh for over a minute strait.
"Wow, the play on words from the actual movie to this episode is awesome." Tony said.
"You haven't seen this one because I have DiNozzo?" Gibbs asked.
"It is a really good show. I'm not surprised you like it Gibbs." Jimmy said.
"It really is a good show" McGee agreed.
They continued to watch, liking the show. They enjoyed, laughing at the jokes and the imitation of the actual Star Wars Movie. Gibbs made sure to hold back a full laughs, not wanting to repeat that morning. They all enjoyed their comfortably and intimate family time together, laughing.
"I love our mismatched family." Abby said getting nods agreeing.
"Me to Abby" Jimmy said.
They ate a hearty lunch as the true if mismatched family they are. They all loved that Gibbs had decided to be a part of them. They figured he thought that if they were going be stuck in the same place he should be a part of the family style fun and games. They love the fact that nevertheless they still got to see the relaxed family man, hidden by his usual gruffness. Gibbs fell asleep as they continued to watch t.v. shows. They let him not wanting to wake him.
"He's still tired from the pain flare this morning." Ellie said. They helped him lay down, his head on a pillow in her lap.
"I'm not surprised pain like that will wear you out badly." Jimmy said.
They went back to watching t.v. shows as Gibbs slept on. They woke him up two hours later for dinner. Tony made them dinner with only the freshest ingredients, lasagna, a small side of Mostaccioli for each, cheese and pepperoni Bosco sticks, and garlic bread.
"It's really, really good Tony" Abby said.
"Tony has always made the best homemade Italian I ever had. Even better then family owned Italian restaurants."
"Thank you very much boss" Tony said almost shyly.
"Yep"
They watched t.v. for a half an hour until Brenna and Gibbs were both yawning. The baby was starting to make her very tired. They knew that with both Gibbs healing and her pregnant that they had to force them to sleep as much as possible.
"We should both get to bed. Especially with how tired the baby makes you." Gibbs said to Brenna.
Everyone went to bed and slept very well. Having a very good day with everyone safe they had new hope. They were getting more accustomed to the temporary change of scenery and life. They knew that they would stay safe with Gibbs around and be a family. They all wanted to keep each other safe so they can live together and go back to their normal lives.
