He sat there on his hospital bed, finally dressed in normal clothing instead of that stupid hospital gown. He was all ready to go home. He was just waiting for the others to come pick him up so they could go to the airport. His head still hurt a little, but the doctor said that it is normal as long as he kept taking his pain medications.

He heard a knock at the door and Jenny entered with a smile on her face. "Hey Jethro, how are you feeling?"

"Eh," He shrugged. "Better than before."

Jenny laughed, "I'm sure you do! Are you ready?"

"I am so ready." He exclaimed.

They walked out of his room and he gave his signed papers to the head nurse and they proceeded to walk out. Gibbs was still a little shaky on walking so Jenny held his arm to steady him as they walked slowly.

As they were about to leave through the hallway exit door, Tony and Abby came rushing through almost knocking Gibbs down. "Woah sorry Boss, you ready?" Tony asked.

"No Tony, I'm just talking a lovely stroll through the hallway." He said sarcastically. Jenny tried to hide her smile.

Abby leaned in to Tony and whispered, "I think he's ready."

Jenny turned her head slightly to the left and back, and then she did a double take. She saw the little girl from last night. "Tony, Abby, you guys help Gibbs to the car. I'll be right out."

"You alright?" Gibbs asked.

She smiled at him. "I'm fine."

Tony, Gibbs, and Abby looked at her with weird expressions, but left to go out to the car anyway.

Jenny walked over to the chair that the girl was sitting in. "Anna" She said with a smile.

Anna looked up and smiled, "Jenny!" She stood up.

Jenny looked down at her, "Did you run away from your grandma again?"

Anna chuckled, "No, she just went to the café to get me something to eat."

"What are you guys still doing here?" She asked.

Anna looked back down, "Well, Grandma told me that my Mom and Dad won't be coming back. That they're in a better place now." She looked up, "They died Jenny."

Jenny's eyes were almost ready to let go of the tears that threatened to fall to her cheeks. "So why are you still here? You should be at home resting, not here in this boring old hospital."

"Grandma said that the man in the other car is in a real long sleep right now and that he's feeling bad. She said that he might die too. The doctors said that he's got no family. So me and my Grandma have been staying with him morning and night and praying together that he wakes up. He doesn't deserve to die too. Grandma says he's only 23. I want him to live so I can give him a big, huge hug and tell him that it's okay and that I forgive him."

Jenny lost the tears that were built up in her eyes and said, "Anna, that is beautiful. You are a very special young lady, don't you ever forget that."

Anna smiled, "It's bad enough that I had to lose my Mommy and Daddy, but I know in my stomach that they would want that man to live."

Jenny heart was breaking and she smiled even bigger. "Your grandma is very lucky to have a gal like you around to keep her happy, Anna."

She laughed, "Thanks, and you know what's weird? I haven't cried yet. I'm gonna stay strong for that man. I'm gonna make my Mommy and Daddy proud."

"Anna, you make them proud every day. Just never stop smiling and I promise they will always be proud. I know that they're up in heaven bragging about you to all their friends saying, That's our little girl Anna, ain't she special? "

Anna nodded, "I'll never stop smiling Jenny. I promise."

"Good, well sweetie I have to go home now." She smiled.

"Do you live in Florida?" Anna asked.

Jenny shook her head, "I live all the way up in Washington DC. Do you know where that is?"

Anna smiled, "My friend Grace went on a field trip there once! She says that's where the President of the United States lives!" She said excited.

Jenny laughed, "Yes it is." She took out a paper, "Anna, this is my card. If you ever need anything, you give me a call on either one of these numbers okay?" She smiled.

Anna nodded and took the card, "What's NCIS?" She asked.

"It stands for Naval Criminal Investigative Service."

"What do you do there?" She questioned.

Jenny smiled, "We find bad guys and stop them from hurting more people."

Anna's face lit up, "Wow so you're like a super hero? You save lives?"

Jenny nodded, "Yeah sorta like that. I manage the teams that find the bad guys and save people."

"That's so cool! I wish I could do that."

"Hey you never know, maybe you'll make a good cop one day." Jenny smiled.

"Maybe." Anna laughed.

Jenny nodded her head and hugged the little girl. "Well Anna I have to go now. I'm glad we got to talk before I left."

"Bye Jenny!"

Jenny turned around to leave but said, "Oh and Anna? Make sure you tell that man you're looking after that I said I hope he feels better soon." She smiled.

"I will!" She exclaimed and ran into his room.

They all got to the airport and boarded the plane, excited to go home. "Same seating arrangements as before." Jenny stated.

They all sat down and the plane took off. Jenny turned to Gibbs. "Crazy week."

Gibbs nodded, "Yep, it sure was crazy." He said grabbing her hand. "But I'm glad it happened." He smiled.

She smiled and looked into his blue crystal eyes. "So am I. I'm glad that SECNAV ordered you to go."

"And I'm glad that he ordered you to go." He smiled.

Jenny looked at him with an evil grin and instantly at that moment, he knew.

"SECNAV didn't order you to come, did he?" He asked already knowing the answer.

She shook her head, "Nope."

"You devil." He smiled.

An hour into the flight Gibbs fell asleep and Jenny was reading her book. Behind them the other four agents were bickering about God-knows-what."

Jenny turned around, "Hey guys, I'm trying to read and Gibbs is trying to sleep. Keep it down."

They all shut up and resorted to texting each other instead of talking for the rest of the flight.

Once they landed, they all got off, and headed towards their cars that they left there in the beginning of the week.

"Oh DC, I missed you so much!" Tony said bowing to the ground.

"I hope you missed desk work as much as you missed DC, DiNozzo." Gibbs glared.

Tony got silent and kept his head down walking to the parking lot.

They all got into their cars and drove home.

It was now midnight and Gibbs was in his basement, sanding his beloved boat when he heard footsteps coming his way and he already knew who it was. He could tell by the sound of her steps.

"I knew I'd find you down here."

Gibbs smiled. "Watcha doing here, Jen? It's midnight. You should be at home, sleeping."

She nodded, "I just wanted to say hi. And see how you were doing. Your head still hurt?"

"A little, but nothing major."

She stepped closer. "Let's go upstairs and sit on the couch, maybe watch some TV?"

"TV is broken."

She sighed, "Then we can just talk."

He nodded and they walked up the steps and sat on the old worn out couch.

Gibbs spoke up first, "I meant it Jen, I'm glad this week happened."

She smiled, "I know, me too."

Gibbs looked down, "It's just.." He stopped.

She looked up worried and confused. "What?"

He sighed, "It's just, I'm afraid."

Her eyes went wide. "Afraid of what Jethro." She said grabbing his hand.

"I'm afraid us, of losing you, of losing you again. I don't think I can go through you leaving me again Jen. I just don't think I have it in me."

"You won't lose me Jethro. I promise." She smiled and squeezed his hand.

"You don't know that. What if you meet someone else? Or what if I screw it all up? Dammit Jen, our jobs are brutal and deadly. What if you're in danger and I'm not there to save you? What if I mess it all up?" He said yelling to himself.

She sighed, then looked him in the eyes and smiled. "Jethro look at me. You will never lose me again." She said putting an emphasis on every word.

He shook his head, "Anything could happen at any time with our jobs being so dangerous."

She grabbed his face and pulled it closer to her lips. She kissed him gently and looked at him again. "Jethro listen. Can I tell you something?"

He nodded.

"This little girl I once met taught me to enjoy what you have while you have it. Don't let one setback, keep you back. Life goes on, and right now, my life is going on, with you. That girl taught me that you can't just sit around and wait for something bad to happen. You have to get up and live your life before that bad thing happens, and even then, you need to keep your head up high. No matter how much life may seem to suck, there's always someone who needs you to keep a smile on your face in order for them to stay smiling." She paused to kiss him. "I love you and right now, that's all that matters."
