**Gibbs' POV**

Everything was going swimmingly apart from the fact that I was really missing my daughter and Jenny. I had begun to see the reason why SecNav had decided to send Katie in with me. Working as a teacher was something I never ever thought I would do and yet here I was Mark Harmon was my undercover alias and so all my students called me Mr Harmon and some called me Mr H. I had grown very close to Melissa. I felt as though she was my own daughter.

There was one thing that was not going to plan. It was something which really should not have happened but once it did, it kept happening over and over again. Jacqueline Sloane/Jacqueline Rutherford, had become my supposed mistress. The first time it happened was a few weeks after we met. We became close quite quickly and one night, she needed to release some emotions and burst out crying. I comforted her, one thing led to another and we ended up in bed. Jack said that my whole sense of style and my attitude to life reminded her of a cowboy and so that was her nickname for me. I hadn't told Katie about it because I knew that she would just tell me off for what was happening. One thing that was very strange, was that Jack didn't seem to have a man in her life, let alone someone a man who was her kidnapper. I had told SecNav and he said that he would look into it.

This evening, I was taking Jack out on a date. We were going to a little restaurant a few towns over. She said that she didn't want other parents at the school finding out about us because then they would think that I was giving her son Carson favouritism. I agreed and so we were going out for Italian food. 

**Katie's POV**

Something was going on between Jethro and Jacqueline. I knew there was from the moment he introduced me to her. I wanted to scream at him and tell him off for what he was doing but whenever he came home from being out with her, he was always so happy that I didn't care what he did with her. I was just happy because he was happy. That was when I knew that I was indeed in love with Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs. 

**Sophie's POV**

Once Abby returned to work after her suspension, things had changed. Some things changed for the better and others changed for the worse. Mom had started becoming Jenny again and not just Director Shepard. She told me that she was doing it for my sake so that I wouldn't try running away or anything like that again just to go and see them.

My suspicions had been correct but I had no clue how severe it all was. Abby had explained everything to me one afternoon when I asked her why McGee no longer worked at NCIS. During the first month, Abby and Ziva never spoke. I don't know what happened, but one day the switched flipped and they were as close as ever. It was as if nothing had even happened. Tony and Ziva on the hand, didn't have the same relationship, they were purely professional with each other and if we ever all met up outside the office, they would take it in turns to come so that both of them weren't there at the same time. That carried on for a whole year after dad left but now they have gone back to being friends. Tony and Abby on the other hand are no longer just friends, turns out they were dating for a year and a half and we only found out when they told us that they were engaged.

Mom had re-joined the dating scene also. At first she really didn't want to but after I had convinced that she was allowed to be happy and that I was okay with her being with a man that wasn't my father, she had started dating a doctor named Todd. He is closer to mom's age than dad. Todd is five years older than mom while dad is ten years older. I really missed dad but at the same time I disliked him for two things; not telling us he was leaving, and for not coming to see us when he was on leave.
