AN: So this is the final Chapter.
I wish I could have continued but I think it would have been impossible for me to do.
I would like to thank everyone for their reviews, putting this story on Alert and favourites, it means alot.
When I first started this fic I thought I'd get at least 10 reviews. But to have over 70 reviews...WOW.

There is no Diary entry in this chapter, there is however a letter and a flashback. I hope you like it.

Also sorry about the delay in updates.

Fourteen year old Callen DiNozzo, known as Leni to only her grandmother Kelly Callen, lay in bed reading her grandmother's diary. At hearing a knock on her bedroom door Callen quickly hid the book under her pillow as the door opened. 'Hey Grandma' Leni instantly greeted.

'Hey. Just wanted to come in and say goodnight. You should get some sleep if you're going for an early morning surf with Hudson' Kelly suggested as she walked into the room and over to Leni's bed.

'Molly! I'm going for a surf with Molly!' exclaimed Leni as Kelly sat down on the bed. 'Hudson's just coming coz...' she trailed off.

'Hm - mm' replied Kelly, not believing her granddaughter as she leant over and kissed the top of her head, then got off the bed and headed towards the door.

'Gran' called Leni as she watched Kelly head out of the room.

'Yeah?' questioned Kelly as she stopped at the bedroom door to face her granddaughter.

'I uh, I found your diary' Leni guilty admitted.

'Oh'

'Do you still miss him?' Leni asked as she sat up in bed.

'Everyday' Kelly answered softly.

'Why don't you try and find him. I mean you're the boss of NCIS here in LA and your besties with the McDirector'

'It doesn't work like that'

'Sure it does' Leni argued. 'You could locate his GPS, you could hack his phone, trace his alias, put out a BOLO' finished Leni as she listed the possibilities.

'Callen you have been spending way too much time at NCIS. I think I'm going to have to have a chat with that Ninja grandmother of yours' Kelly remarked.

'But you could right?'

Kelly sighed 'I could' she agreed. 'But it would be impossible. Your Grandfather knows how to go off grid and become a ghost; so nobody at all can find or trace him. He will come back when he gets the answers he needs' Kelly reassured more so herself than her granddaughter.

'What was he like?' inquired Callen, who had only heard stories of her grandfather from her mother and Uncle Dom.

'He was the best' Kelly answered truthfully as she walked back over to the bed and sat down on the edge. 'He was kind, caring. He had the most amazing eyes. To everyone looking in they thought he was this straight down the line serious guy, but he wasn't, he had this smile which just melted my heart. With me he was just a goof ball. He was a big softie.' Kelly sighed, not wanting to continue.

Leni snuggled under her blankets as Kelly got off the bed and again made her way to the door 'I'm going to find him Gran' Leni stated.

'I have no doubt you will' Kelly returned as she closed the bedroom door.

In her own bedroom, lying in her bed after putting her pyjama's on, Kelly fumbled through her bedside table look for something. Finding what she was looking for she pulled out the piece of paper, unfolded it and began to read.

Dear Kelly,
I've come across some information about my past and it could lead me to my family.
It is with great deliberation and thought that I have decided to go and find it.
I'm not even certain it will lead to anything, nor how long it will take; weeks, months, years. But I need to know who I am.
I didn't tell you in person as you would have wanted to come with me or tried to stop me. I want you to promise me that you will stay strong for the kids.
You, Amy and Dom are the best things to ever happen to me.
I will never forget you Kell.
I LOVE YOU.

G. Callen.

.

Special Agent Kelly Callen opened the door to her family's DC home. The family had moved back eight months ago for a year.
A past case that Callen had worked had re surfaced and the team leader of the DC ops Ziva David needed G. Callen's help.

With the kids not home for the evening - Amy having a sleepover at Harper's place and Dom at practice - Kelly smiled to herself, it was just her and her husband for a few hours before Dom arrived home.

And who knew what could happen in those few hours?

Walking through to the kitchen, Kelly turned the light on and threw the keys on the table. Before turning away to go to the fridge, she noticed an envelope addressed to her. Picking it up she ripped it open retrieving the letter inside.
Reading the contents her eyes widened in a mixture of surprise, sadness and shock.

Holding the letter she picked up her keys and left.

Arriving at her father's home she walked through the unlocked door, heading straight to the basement. At finding the basement empty she went and found his bourbon, took a full bottle along with a mason jar and left the basement.

After a long day at work Jethro Gibbs wanted nothing more than to get home and work in his basement. His latest project was a baseball bat for his grandson, Anthony Jethro DiNozzo, son of Tony and Ziva.

At hearing soft sobs, Gibbs became alert, placing his hand over his gun as he walked cautiously into his lounge room, flicking the light switch on to find his daughter lying on the couch in tears with a half a bottle of bourbon on the table with a full mason jar next to it.
'Kelly?' he questioned.

'He's gone. He's left me' she sobbed.

'Who?' quizzed a confused Gibbs walking closer to his daughter as Kelly picked up the letter, handing it to her father who read it and as he did got tears in his eyes. Not for what the letter contained, but for his daughter. 'Do the kids know?' he choked out.

'I only found out an hour ago' Kelly responded with a sniff.

'Where are they?'

'Amy's at Maddie's and Dom's at practice. I should probably go and get him. Can I borrow your car?' she asked sitting up on the couch with red eyes and wiping the hair out of her face.

'Where's yours?'

'I walked here. I had a lot on my mind'

'How much have you had to drink?' asked a concerned Gibbs.

'The bottle was full when I found it'

'Kelly' Gibbs growled.

'Jesus dad. My husband's just left me. I needed to numb the pain. You held a gun to your head and almost pulled the trigger when the love of your life left you' Kelly said as she gazed at her father.

'Your drunk. So I'm gonna let that one slide. I'll go get Dom'

Arriving to collect his grandson, Gibbs found a group of teens in the car park. Parking the car, then opening the door to hop out he walked towards them to find his grandson one of the.

'Grandpa' greeted Dom. 'Are mum and dad still at work?'

'Something like that' answered Gibbs not wanting to tell his grandson the truth. That, he would leave up to his daughter.

'Well I'm going to call mum. Ask if I can stay at Sean's place'

'Don't call her' Gibbs said a little too fast as he didn't want Dom to hear a drunken Kelly on the other end of the line. 'You can stay. I'll let her know'

'Thanks Grandpa'

Opening the door to the family home Maddie Tyler found her best friend's father on the other side. 'Hey Gibbs' she greeted with a warm smile.

'Maddie' Gibbs returned the greeting.

'Something's wrong' stated a now worried Maddie, as her smile disappeared.

'Kelly needs you. Callen's left her'

'He what?' asked a shocked Maddie. ' When? Do the kids know?'

'No, they don't. She wants to tell them. She's at my place'

'Is she OK?'

'Well when I left she was halfway through a bottle of bourbon'

'I'll grab my coat and tell Ben what's going on'

Lying face down on the bed in her childhood bedroom, Kelly turned her head towards the door when she heard the door open 'Dad called in the reinforcements' Kelly said with a groan as her head began to hurt from turning it too fast.

'Your dad told me what happened' Maddie explained as she entered the room. 'Kelly I'm so sorry' she finished as she sat down on the bed.

'Rule number..Oh I forget what number' Kelly said urgently. 'But you know; Don't apologise it's a sign of weakness'

'Its rule number 6' Maddie answered as she sat down on the bed 'but it's not to friends' Maddie argued back.

'Trained you well Tyler' Kelly replied as she grabbed the mason jar off the floor and saluted her friend before swallowing the amber liquid.

'How much have you had to drink' Maddie asked as she eyed the second bottle of bourbon that was on the floor, as Kelly pulled a face.

'Don't worry. Half of the first bottle ended up in the toilet. He left me Maddie. The bastard left me'

The follow night at 6pm Amy and Dominic Callen walked through the front door of their home laughing about the events that had occurred at school.
Walking into the kitchen they found their mother busy cutting vegetables for dinner. Dom looked at his sister in confusion.

'Uh mum. What are you doing home?' Amy questioned.

'Making dinner'

'But your meant to be at work'

Kelly turned to face her children. As she did, Dom noticed her red eyes and he looked toward the kitchen bench to where the cutting board lay to see what his mother was cutting. No onions in sight. 'I took the afternoon off. Why do I need to explain what I do to my children?' Kelly said angrily.

'Wow. Chill out mum. I was just asking' answered Amy.

'Is dad home?' asked Dom. 'I want to see if he can come for a run before dinner'

'No. He's gone'

'Maybe I can catch up?'

'You can't Dominic. He's gone. He's left us. He's not coming back'

'What?' questioned Amy.

'He's gone to find answers about his past'

'Did you stop him' asked Amy.

'I couldn't'

'This is all your fault' spat Amy.

'Amy' pleaded Dom. He wanted his sister to stop yelling at their mother. If Callen was there he wouldn't be putting up with this. His family never fought.

'If she had stopped him, he wouldn't have left. I hate you' Amy cried accusingly, with tears in her eyes.

4 hours later Dominic Callen crept into the house, climbed the stairs where once at the top he made his way to his sister's room. 'Amy. Are you awake?' he whispered as he stood in the door way.

'Yeah. How was your run?'

'I didn't want to come back. I just wanted to keep running' Dom informed as he entered his sister's room and walked over and sat on the bed.

'Why didn't you?'

'If I didn't come home mum would have all of NCIS and the FBI looking for me. I hate him Amy'

'I hate him too Dom. I can't believe he left us'

'Do you think he loved us?' Dom inquired softly.

Amy sighed. 'I think that he did. I don't get it Dom, we're his family. He doesn't need to go and find answers. The one's that love him are in this house. I bet Grandpa's pissed' Amy concluded with a giggle, as Dom sniggered.

'We should check on mum' Dom suggested as Amy nodded her head in agreance.

Pushing the bedroom door open, Crackles the dog scampered into the room, jumping up onto the bed and snuggled up next to Kelly.

'Mummy' remarked Amy sadly.

Kelly sat up on the bed looking towards the door to find her two children standing there. Opening her arms Amy and Dom rushed over to her engulfing their mother into a hug.

END FLASKBACK.

Kelly folded the letter back up, placing it back in the draw and turned off the bedside light.

As she turned off the light the moon shone brightly into the bedroom and she was able to clearly see within the room. She looked at the picture on the bedside table; it was a candid photo of just the two of them which had been taken only months before Callen had decided to leave. The photo was taken at Maddie's place, the friends had gotten together for a Sunday afternoon lunch which had first started with just Kelly and Maddie, then their respected partners then with their children in tow. Unfortunality when Kelly and G had moved to LA the lunches had been few and far between.
The photo was of the couple sitting on the grass with Kelly looking at the camera with a big smile on her face; Callen was looking at her lovingly.

As silent tears slid down her face, she looked towards the window, finding the stars in the night sky.
Finding the brightest star in the night sky she tearfully pleaded 'I miss both of you so, so much. Look after him mum. Love you'
And as she settled into bed and closed her eyes she knew than tomorrow she would go into the office and try again to locate her husband just like she had done every day since the day he had left.

END.

I hope that you could tell from the name that Amy married Tony and Ziva's boy Anthony and they had a girl named Callen DiNozzo. Callen during this chapter was visiting Kelly in LA.
Hudson and Molly are the grandchildren (twins) of Kensi and Deeks.
