I do not own NCIS or any of it's characters.

This is meant to be a short chapter.

Hooray!! Despite what I said in all of the other chapters I have finished this before the 150th NCIS episode.


He woke up to a white room with a lot of worried faces looking down at him.

"Mom," Tony asked.

Gibbs furrowed his eyebrows and was a little bit worried, "No, Tony it's your team."

He looked around and smiled at all of the people around him.

"Hey, McWorry, I'm alright."

McGee smiled, "He's fine, boss."

Tony looked at Ziva, "I'm glad to see that yo are better," said Ziva.

"What? And no longer see that smokin' ho-"

"Yes, Tony, thank you."

Abby then hugged him and Tony groaned.

"Sorry, Tony. I was just so worried! McGee called me and told me what was happening."

Ducky shook his head, "Sorry, me and Mr. Palmer were not around during this, we just came back from Iraq yesterday."

A man with a white coat then came in who was a doctor, "Okay, let's give Mr. DiNozzo some rest. You can all visit with him in a couple of hours."

Everyone left except for Gibbs, "Sir, Mr. DiNo-

"It's Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo and I really want to stay with him," the look in Gibbs eyes made the doctor agree with him.

Gibbs looked at his Senior Field Agent. His stomach was all bandaged up and he was wheezing a little bit, but besides that he looked fine for just being shot by his father, "Your a hell of a fighter, you know that, DiNozzo."

*************

It was a chilly day in New York and many people dressed in black were all sitting in front of a coffin. Two of the people in that crowd were Tony DiNozzo and Leroy Jethro Gibbs. Tony had gone to the funeral to appease his other relatives, but Gibbs insisted that he should come too, in case Tony needed someone. Everyone in the DiNozzo family were crying, except for Tony. He had an emotionless stare on his face. The man wasn't even going to be buried next to his first wife. Tony's mom.

Everyone was saying words about DiNozzo Sr. up at a stand. Such as 'a damn good man' and 'always was a hard-working man'. Tony wondered how anyone could even say that about his father. Some of his relatives had insisted to him that he must go up and speak, because he was his only child. Tony shared a look with Gibbs and then he went up.

He cleared his throat, "My father was never the kind that showed his love out...I mean he," Tony looked at all of the faces looking up at him and he knew that he couldn't lie. Not this time," He was a selfish bastard, and he never cared about anyone. Only his money and respect," Tony's eyes watered, "Not even his own son."

With that Tony found himself running, to where he didn't know. He sprinted past all of the graves and didn't know how long that he had been running. Until a pair of firm hand held him by the shoulders and squeezed him into a hug. It was Gibbs. Tony stood back and wiped away his tears.

"S-sorry, boss," he stammered.

"Don't be sorry, Tony. I know that it must have been horrible to deal with that son of a bitch all of these years."

"Even my father hates me."

"No he doesn't. He loves you and he's trying to comfort you right now."

Tony looked at him, "Thanks,..dad."

Gibbs had finally told Tony how much he meant to him and Tony finally had the father that he always wanted. Right in front of his mother's grave.


And finished! I really did finish this by the 150th episode! What do you think of this whole story and this chapter?
