Jethro never had been a talkative child but in that moment he was in a stunned silence. Had his girlfriend really just told him she was pregnant? He had also never really been good with words. He knew that he need to say something or Jenny would think he wasn't supportive. Maybe he had just misunderstood her.

"What did you say?" Jethro asked instantly regretting it.

"I am pregnant." Jenny replied.

"Are you sure?" Jethro asked.

"Yes I had my suspicions after I didn't get over the stomach flu as fast as the others. I knew that the only places to get a home pregnancy test in Stillwater were your dad's store and Poppa's drug store. So this morning I told my Granny and Poppa I was staying with Michelle for today. So they could both go on with their days. It was true Michelle was the one who drove me to the drug-store in the next town over. I took the tests in the bathroom and they were all positive. So she took me to the doctor in that town. Who confirmed that I am five weeks along." Jenny explained.

"OK" Jethro replied.

"Are you mad? Are you going to dump me?" Jenny asked.

"No I will support you. This just isn't news I expected to get." Jethro replied.

"Good I can't keep driving that far to the doctor people will get suspicious." Jenny commented/

"We can tell everyone as soon as you want." Jethro assured.

"Can we tell my grandparents first?" Jenny asked.

"That is probably the best idea." Jethro replied.

Jethro stood with his arm draped around Jenny. In the living room of her grandparents mansion. Jenny's great-grandfather had been the manager and head of he mine and his grandfather had founded it sometime over a hundred years ago. Jenny's grandfather Steven had been injured in a mine collapse as a young man and was unable to do physical labor anymore. He got sent to college off the money his daddy had gotten suing some people in the big city for saying the mine was safe when it wasn't Meanwhile everybody else affected those injured and the families of the permanently damaged or killed struggled to get by. After graduating from college and starting a drug store. Steven bought up most of Stillwater and secured a seat on the town council. He was even mayor for a while when Jethro was tiny but stepped down when Brandy left Jenny with them. Just about the only part of Stillwater he didn't own was Jackson's store. Even though he tried to buy it out every couple of years or son. Jenny's grandmother Alice was a spoiled aristocrats daughter. Who had no idea how to live. After the Great Depression took her money and a polio outbreak took her parents and baby brother. Of course all she cared about was the loss of her money. Her parents had died first but while her brother survived the Polio. He died from a secondary infection or further complication Jethro could remember which. All because Alice refused to use the last of her money to get him treatment. Sometimes Jethro wondered how Jenny could turn out so sweet. Considering her family was so horrible. The milk's were a divided family in Stillwater. In the sense that you either loved them or hated them. The Gibbs's had never really liked them. It wasn't a Romeo and Juliet thing. Since Jackson firmly believed in Love Thy Neighbor. Now had Jethro been born in the generation before it would have made Romeo and Juliet look like kid stuff. That's how strong the hatred was between Jedidiah Gibbs and Thaddeus Wilk.

"What do you and the Gibbs boy need to discuss Jennifer?" Alice asked.

"Please tell me that he is going to go to college and get a real job so you can have the life that you deserve instead of being some working whore." Steven pleaded.

"I am going to be a nurse grandfather not a whore and no Jethro is still joining that Marines. Just like he has always wanted to." Jenny argued.

"Well fine then enjoy poverty but don't say we didn't warn you that you deserved and could have better like that Blake DiNozzo from New York." Alice explained.

"I don't care about money. We will not be destitute I just won't be as comfortable as I am now and I know and except that. Because I love Jethro. Besides Blake DiNozzo is just like his father. They both abused Tony." Jenny explained trying to keep her cool.

"That whole Gibbs family is trash Jennifer and you know that Ann committed suicide right? They say it was because her cancer was too painful but we all know she came from better and was brought down by that damn Jackson boy. She finally realized that life was worthless and divorce is always ugly in Stillwater and took all those pills." Steven taunted.

"I am standing right here!" Jethro snapped trying to hide his pain and anger. He hated that the whole town knew that his mom had killed herself. He hated that it had come to that but most of all he hated that he had found her body. Nobody not even Jackson knew that. It was Jethro who came home sick from school. The store was being worked on and had no phone service and Ann wasn't answering. So finally Jethro just walked home. It was all weird to him. He never got sick but that day his stomach churned. He got home and found his mom lying on the kitchen floor dead an empty pill bottle lying beside her. He remembered running to the store and telling Jackson he was sick. They spent the day together and after the store closed it was Jackson who thought he found Ann's body and that's how Jethro wanted it to be.

"I know and I stand by everything I say." Steven replied.

"Can I please just tell you my news please?" Jenny pleaded.

"Go ahead." Alice replied.

"Grandma, grandpa I am pregnant." Jenny blurted out.

""YOU'RE WHAT?!" Steven demanded.

"Pregnant" Jenny replied.

"You harlot!" Steven snapped.

"No granddaughter of mine!" Alice spat.

"I am sorry." Jenny croaked.

"Sorry doesn't mean nothing!" Steven yelled grabbing Jenny by the wrist.

"Hey leave her alone!" Jethro ordered.

"YOU! You did this to her!" Steven barked.

"I know I am sorry. Normally I can borrow condoms from my dad but Darla and him are trying to get pregnant." Jethro explained.

"No excuse!" Alice yelled.

"It was a mistake." Jenny sobbed.

"No taking you in was a mistake! We should have left you with the police!" Steven shouted shoving Jenny to the ground. He raised his fist and swung it towards her stomach but was stopped by Jethro.

"LEAVE HER ALONE!" Jethro demanded.

Steven moved his fist and hit Jenny in the face and chest instead calling her a whole, slut,garbage, and a waste. Jethro finally had enough and punched Steven in the back. The old man spun around and shoved Jethro to the ground punching and kicking him. Yelling that he had ruined his granddaughter and should be ashamed of himself. Jethro finally broke free, grabbed Jenny, carefully lifted her into his arms and ran towards the general store.

"What on earth happened to you kids?" Jackson asked when he saw their injuries.

"My grandfather." Jenny replied.

"He just went crazy on us." Jethro added.

"Why would he do that?" Jackson questioned.

"Because I am pregnant." Jenny replied.

"You're what?" Jackson demanded.

"Pregnant dad I got her pregnant." Jethro replied.

"We are going to have a major discussion later but first I am taking you guys to get checked out Jenny we will need to make sure the baby wasn't hurt and Jethro you look like you've been hit by a truck. When we get back keep and eye on the kids. I have some business to attend to before our little campfire." Jackson explained.

A/N: How does Jackson feel? New chapter soon. Sorry for not updating anything in so long. I have even less time to write than I thought. Since Saturday most of my time has been in a van or preforming with my church group, and doing other activities. This chapter literally took me five days to write alone. Until tonight I have had like fifteen minutes to write where I actually felt like it. Oh well I am having fun except for the unreliable internet access. Anyway please review and thanks for reading.
