The next morning Tony woke up in Gibbs warm embrace. He knew he needed to tell Gibbs the truth, no matter how painful it was.
"Good morning sunshine." Gibbs said as he placed a kiss on Tony's cheek.
"Morning Gibbs." Tony sighed.
Gibbs scooted up in bed and rested propped his head up with his arm.
"Something the matter?" Gibbs asked.
"Well its…I guess I need to come clean." Tony said worried about how Gibbs would look at him.
Gibbs gave him a questioning look before gesturing for him to go on.
"Well…Kami…isn't mine and Kate's first born." Tony said.
"What are you saying?" Gibbs questioned.
"When Kate and I left NCIS she was pregnant. However, she lost the baby soon after we moved to Indiana. We were devastated. We weren't going to try again for a while because we were both so heartbroken. Then out of the blue when we least expected it 8 weeks later, Kate was pregnant with Kami. We didn't want to tell anyone because we didn't want their pity. So instead we played it off as Kate was pregnant with Kami when we left and Kami was born early."
"Tony I am so sorry. I had no idea you had lost two children." Gibbs said as he rubbed Tony's arm.
"It's ok. I never got to meet either one. Now if I was to lose Kami, it would just about kill me."
"I can understand that pain from when I lost Kelly and Shannon."
Before Tony could say anymore a tiny knock was heard on the bedroom door.
"Papa Gibbs, we have breakfast now?!"
Gibbs laughed "If there's one thing I know about Kami, she's got your appetite."
"Careful she will eat you out of house and home!" Tony laughed.
It felt good for him to get the truth off his chest. He felt like he was free and could finally move forward.
"Just a minute sweetpea. How about you bring your babydoll's to breakfast?" Gibbs said through the door.
"Ok!" Kami said as she skipped back to the extra bedroom to retrieve them.
"Gibbs, why don't you come over for dinner tonight, my treat. I will even cook for you. We can talk a little bit more." Tony suggested.
"I would love that." Gibbs smiled, something Tony had very rarely seen.
He wanted more than anything for this to work between him and Gibbs, and he had a plan to make sure it did.
