A/N: At first I wasn't really didn't think I was going to add anything to this story. But, I think a nice simple epilogue is needed.

Two Days Later

"Are you sure he's well enough to go home Leroy?"

"Dad, he's sitting up, eating, and hitting on the nurses. I'm pretty sure he's going to be fine."

Gibbs looked into the rearview mirror to find the object of their conversation asleep.

Tony always did sleep well in the car. He was a like a little boy in the car wrapped up in his Ohio State sweatshirt.

Tony's soft snores brought a smile to his face.

The car ride was short and Gibbs hated to wake his Senior Field Agent but having him sleep in the house was better than the back seat of his car.

"Come on, DiNozzo let's get you in the house."

There was a groan from his second as he pulled himself from the backseat of the car.

Pushing Tony into the couch ten minutes later after pulling him out of the car the two Gibbs men left him alone to let him settle.

"You just relax Tony, and I'll make you something to eat." Jackson said from the kitchen.

"Thanks Jack." Tony yawned

"Lay down, Tony." Throwing a pillow at one end of the couch for his head, Gibbs helped Tony move his legs and the rest of his body onto the couch.

Tony watched with half open lids as Gibbs removed his shoes, "Thanks Boss."

"Just rest Tony. It'll take Dad some time to make you something to eat, so why don't you take a nap"

"That's a good idea, Boss." Tony yawed again.

Gibbs went to find an extra blanket by the time he returned Tony was asleep.

"Rest Tony, I got your six."
