"This is such a long drive." I moan. We stayed up in Illinois for a few days to spend much needed time with my family, but sadly we now had to return to work.
"You're telling me! That's why when I found out you went home I flew instead of drove! By the time I got there, you would have found out and took off again." Jimmy says, grabbing my hand.
"Would not!"
"I know you too well to think you would've stayed." He looks at me.
"...Fine!" I laugh.
"Shhh! They're sleeping." He says looking at the twins through the rear view mirror.
"Oops! Yeah, don't want to wake them up again..."
"Soooo... How come you told McGoo about my new child before you told me?"
"...Well.... I was going to make an announcement on New Year's Day... But, you know, things got complicated..."
"Oh... How long have you known?"
"Only a month before I was going to tell you... I'm four months pregnant. Can't you tell?" I laugh and smile at my very tiny baby bump.
"So, where will we put the baby? We don't exactly have a third nursery."
"Well, depending on if it is a boy or girl, he or she will room with his or her big brother or sister." I smile, looking in the mirror, "You guys or going to have a little brother or sister! What do you think about that?" Jimmy laughs at the silence that follows as the twins continue to sleep.
"Hey! We're almost there! Seventy miles until Washington, D.C." Jimmy points to a road sign.
"Finally! I don't think I can stand being in this car much longer. I'm starting to not feel very well."
After about an hour more of driving we arrive at the NCIS building.
"Why are we here? I thought we were going home?" I ask.
"I want everyone to see that you're alright... We were all worried about you." Jimmy smiles. We grab the car seats out of the backseat and ride the elevator up to the squad room.
"Ashton! You are alright!" Ziva runs over and hugs me.
"Yes! I'm fine. It's nice to see you, Zi." I smile.
"So, we hear you have some news?" Tony asks.
"Well, yeah, I guess... I'm pregnant again!"
"We already knew... McGee told us..." Gibbs says.
"McGee!"
"I'm sorry... Jimmy was trying to figure out why you were so upset... That's all I could think of." McGee smiles.
"It's alright!" I laugh.
"It's good to have you back, kid." Gibbs says, giving me a slap on the back of my head.
"I defiantly missed that..." I laugh sarcastically.
