Author's note - Yay! I was able to update! So this is all Jibbs! Enjoy!

He thought of McGee as a brother and would never think of doing anything of the sort. Sure he found him annoying and loved taking the mick out of him but he couldn't do what Howard had done. He walked back to the car, his arm linked with Ziva's.

Gibbs had just finished his paperwork on the case and felt he ought to talk to Jenny about some of the things he had said in the hospital. He wanted her to know that what he said hadn't been a blur while under the effects of painkillers, but that they were meant and true from the bottom of his heart.

Jenny was upstairs in her office thinking about Jethro. She wanted to ask him if he remembered what he had said in the hospital and if he meant it. She knew he was still hurting over Shannon and Kelly and she hoped that he had room in his heart for her.

Gibbs walked up the stairs to her office. He strode straight past Cynthia, despite her complaints. When he reached the door he stopped, contemplating if it was the right thing to do. He grabbed the handle and turned it before he could change his mind. The door flung open with such force it surprised even Gibbs, but that didn't stop him. He closed the door behind him and walked towards Jenny who was making her way over to him. "Jenny, I need to speak to you." he said.

"Jethro, what is so important that you burst in here and interrupt me while filing paperwork?"

"Jenny, some of the things I said in the hospital well," Jenny braced her self for the fall, "I meant every last word. I still miss them but I want to move on, with you." More had come out than expected. Maybe it's a side affect of the drugs thought Gibbs.

"Jethro I appreciate the thought but I don't know. It's not that I don't love you but I'm your boss and doesn't this contradict rule #12?"

"The reason I have let Abby and McGee and Tony and Ziva be together is because I have changed my mind. That rule is stupid if it gets in the way and makes you unhappy. I would be happy with you Jenny. Only you." This was completely different to how he expected.

"Jethro, are you sure I would make you happy?"

"100%. I was the happiest I had been since Shannon and Kelly when you were with me in the hospital. I want to feel that happiness every day." Jenny's head was spinning.

"I was going to dine alone at home with wine and Chinese, how about you join me?"

"I would be honoured to dine with you." Gibbs took her by the arm and led her out of the office.

When they arrived at her house Gibbs was given a glass of wine to drink while Jenny ordered the meals. The made small talk as they waited for the delivery man to come. When he finally came and Gibbs had insisted on paying, they sat and watched TV as they ate. Gibbs placed his carton down on the coffee table and put his arm around Jenny. She too, put her carton down and snuggled up to him. They sat like that for about 20 minutes before Gibbs lowered his head to face hers. They were locked in each others eyes. Jenny didn't realise that the gap between them was closing with every second that passed. Suddenly his lips were on hers. She had always laughed at the fireworks illusion that apparently happens when you kiss the one you love but at that moment she didn't doubt it. She couldn't, she was experiencing it herself. The moment was magical. When they pulled apart for a much needed breath she could feel a tingle on her lips. Gibbs smirked at her. She couldn't resist. She locked his lips with hers and felt herself being pushed down into her sofa. She didn't care, all she wanted was Leroy Jethro Gibbs and that's what she got.

Author's Note - There's the story finished! I'm thinking of doing a sequel so comment if you want that.
