One-night comforting Tony had turned into several nights. It had become where Gibbs was spending more time at the DiNozzo house than he was his own home. It started with Gibbs just leaving his toothbrush over at Tony's. Then he was leaving more personal care items, then extra clothes and before he knew it, he was moving some of his tools over to Tony's house... tools that he wasn't currently using on his projects.
Kami had gotten used to seeing her daddy smile again and it was all thanks to Gibbs. She enjoyed having her Papa Gibbs there with her daddy and her more and more.
Kami woke to the smell of coffee, bacon, and pancakes. She rubbed her eyes and made her way to the kitchen. She found her Papa Gibbs fixing breakfast while her daddy had his arms wrapped around Papa Gibbs' waist. Gibbs turned quickly and snuck a kiss from Tony. A small chuckle caught their attention.
"I think we got caught!" Tony laughed and rolled his eyes.
"I believe we did." Gibbs smiled. "Are you ready for some pancakes?" he asked Kami.
Kami nodded as she climbed up in her chair. Gibbs sat a small pancake in front of her that had a smiley face made out of bacon.
"Awe Jethro, you've never made a smiley face pancake for me!" Tony pouted.
"Do you want me to fix you a pancake like that, Baby?" Gibbs said in a baby voice which caused Kami to laugh. Gibbs then turned and hugged his lover, pulling Tony close to him.
"Papa Gibbs only makes it for me, Daddy." Kami smiled.
"It's because you're special to me, sweet girl." Gibbs kissed the top of her head before sitting down at the table with a cup of coffee.
Throughout the day, Tony couldn't stop thinking about Gibbs. The smell of sawdust and coffee was always comforting and arousing to Tony. Kami had taken such a liking to Gibbs. Tony knew he wanted to talk to Gibbs later that night about their relationship.
After they had put Kami in bed, Tony curled up to Gibbs' bare chest.
"Jet, we need to talk." Tony stated seriously.
"Nothing good ever comes out of a statement like that." Gibbs said with a frown, quickly sitting up in bed.
"Oh no, it's nothing bad. I was just thinking…what if you moved in…with me and Kami?" Tony hesitantly suggested, knowing how much Gibbs valued his privacy and alone time in his basement.
"Wow...Tony, I would love to. But my boat, it's down in the basement and I use it to de-stress…" Gibbs rambled.
"Leroy Jethro Gibbs, stop making excuses!" Tony exclaimed shortly before receiving a famous slap to the back of his head. "All I'm saying is...I have a huge shed in the back yard that we could make into your workshop. That way you still have somewhere to escape to when you need your space."
Gibbs cuddled into Tony just a little bit tighter.
"You drive a very hard bargain. Now I know where Kami gets it from. I always thought it was from Kate, but it turns out, it is actually from you." Gibbs smiled before placing a tender kiss on Tony's lips.
"We can start moving you in here next weekend. But first, this weekend I would like to take Kami to the zoo." Tony smiled.
"That's not a bad idea." Gibbs smirked. "As long as the zookeepers don't want to keep you."
Tony playfully slapped Gibbs chest.
"I think it would be good for her to have some quality family time. Then next weekend I can do a bbq and invite Palmer and Peter, my second in command, to come over and help us." Tony smiled.
"You know McGee and Torres would love to help... and to see the place too." Gibbs suggested.
"Good old Probie. The more hands the better." Tony smiled.
"The more hands the better." Gibbs agreed before he settled back down on the bed and drew Tony tightly against him.
"Welcome home Jet." Tony replied as he kissed Gibbs' chest.
"Home is wherever I am with you." Gibbs said, kissing the top of Tony's head before they drifted off to sleep.
