(A.N. This chapter has two songs and a bunch of pictures. Both of the songs are the same but they are different so pls listen to both of them!)

Previously on NCIS Family

Anyway, we decide to walk home today. It's two miles but that's okay, it only took us 25 minutes.

When we got home, Jeanne went to her house to get something and she told me that she would meet me in my room to do homework.

I run up the stairs and check to make sure the $300 is still there. It is.

I hurry and sprawl my chemistry essay and papers out on my desk and hurry and sit in my chair, pretending I wasn't just counting $300 that came out of one of my socks.

Theme Song

Tony's POV:

I finish my essay and have Jeanne read it. It's basically a end of the year, "What Have I Learned?" essay. Basically I just wrote about all of the fun labs and stuff we did. No need to add something boring I guess.

"So?" I ask, "What did you grab from your house?"

She pulls something out that was hidden behind the door.

"Huh?" I say. It's a gift bag.

It's full of stuff.

"Just open it already!!!" she says impatiently.

"Alright, Alright! Jeez!"

"OPEN ITTTTT!!!!!!!!!" she yells while laughing.

"OKKKKK!!!! First item," I pull the first item out, "Awwww baby!!!!"

It is my favorite hoodie of hers!

I kiss her.

"Thank you, thank you, THANK YOUUUUUU!!!!!"

"You're welcome. Keep going!!!!!"

Next object is a leather sketchbook with her name on it. Of course, I kiss her again. I grab something else out of the bag with my eyes shut tight and my nose scrunched up. I open my eyes really fast. It is a beanie.

"It's not just any beanie. It has bluetooth speakers where your ears go. That way, you can watch your movies anywhere while keeping your head warm." Of course, I kiss her again.

"Babe! If you kiss me after every item, you'll never get to look at everything!" she says.

"Fine." I say with a pouty frown on my face.

I pick something out of the bag again. This time, it's her red bomber jacket.

I stare at her lips with a pouty face like the one you'll find on a two year old who doesn't get his candy or whatever toddlers eat.

"Fine," I say, "If I can't kiss you, then I'll hold you." I pick her up and put her in between my legs and kiss her forehead.

Next was some spa stuff. Then, some board games, a WHOLE LOT of movies (like 75 I don't have), a bunch of LED lights, AirPods, and some other stuff.

"Jeanne, where did you get the money for all of this?"

"My dad."

"Oh."

"That's a good thing babe! That means that I can buy you more stuff!" (A.N. I can't remember if I wrote that her dad is dead so ummmmmm. If he wasn't HE IS NOWWWWW!!!! Pretend it's like a trust fund or a will or sum.)

"Tomorrow, we are going out!" I say sort of casually.

"Ooooooohhhhhhhhh..... To where?"

"It's a surprise!"

"Fine. I'm hungry, I'm going to go downstairs and help your mom make dinner. I'll probably sneak some food into my mouth too!"

"Ok, I'll be down in a minute! I love you!"

"I love you too," she says as she's leaving the room.

"Byeeeeee!!!!!!" I yell!

"Byeeeee!!!" she yells back, already halfway down the stairs. This gives me a chance to make reservations for tomorrow night. We are going to the most expensive restaurant in DC then, we will be staying at the nicest hotel in DC. I make $200,000 a year, and since I'm a teenager, none of that money is ever spent so I have like $10,000 in the bank.

We are going to The Capital Grille! It has 4 dollar signs on Google. The hotel is The Fours Seasons Hotel in the Presidential Suite.

(A.N. That is a floor plan btw)

I'm pretty sure that I have enough money for that. Anyway, I head downstairs and when I get to the kitchen, before anyone notices me, I take my shirt off.

"Hey ladies!" I say. Jeanne walks over and hugs me. I'm 6'2 and she's 5'3 so when she hugs me, her head rests perfectly on my chest.

"Tony! Put an apron on!" Moms says.

"But I don't want one Mooommmmm!" Jeanne turns around and gives Mom puppy-dog eyes.

"Fine. But, at least wash your hands." I let go of Jeanne and went to do what Mom told me to do.

After my hands were dry, Jeanne threw flour at me.

"Heyyyyyy!" I whine. She jumps up and tries to put flour in my hair but she only succeeds half way. She only gets half of her fistfull on my head. I get my hands wet and then I dip my hands into the flour bucket. I grab a fistful of white powdery flour and make it into a snowball. It is being held together by the water I had on my hands.

I throw it at her and it explodes on impact. It hit her right in the face.

"Owwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!" She starts to tear up.

"Oh, baby! I'm sorry!" I hug her.

"It's okay."

I look over at Mom and she's just standing there laughing at us.

"Mom!"

(A.N. Here is Tony shirtless ig)

I go and wash my hands again.

"So? What are we making?"

"We are making Babka for dessert and Salmon en Papillote for the main meal!" Jeanne answers.

"Oh! Alors, nous allons parler français et juif à fond ce soir?" (Oh! So we are going full out French and Jewish tonight?) (French)

'Oui! J'ai hâte! Je suis déjà tellement excité!" (Yes! I can't wait! I'm already so excited!) (French)

"בבקה הוא הקינוח האהוב עליי!"  (Babka is my favorite dessert!) (Hebrew)

"Me  too!" Jeanne replies.

"You know what? I'm gonna test your languages!"

"איזו שפה זו?" (What language is this?) (Hebrew)

"עִברִית!"  (Hebrew!)

"¡Española!" (Spanish!)

"و هذا؟"  (And this?) (Arabic)

"عربي." (Arabic.)

"7 tane daha var!" (7 more to go!) (Turkish)

"Türk." (Turkish)

"Vous connaissez évidemment celui-ci!" (You obviously know this one!) (French)

"Duh. Français!" (Duh. French!)

"دا یو سخت دی مګر دا عربي ته ورته دی." (This one is harder but it is very similar to Arabic.) (Pashto)

"تاسو سم یاست ، دا سخت دی ... مګر زما لپاره نه! پښتو!" (You're right, it is harder... But not for me! Pashto!)

"Das ist ganz einfach!" (This is an easy one!) (German)

"Ja! Deutsch!" (Yep! German!) (German)

"Questa è la mia lingua preferita!" (This is my favorite language!) (Italian)

"Italiana!!!"

"Верный! Как насчет этого?" (Correct! What about this one?) (Russian)

"Русский" (Russian)

"Good job Jeanne!"

While doing that, we were putting all the food in the oven.

"Let's go upstairs Tony!" She takes my hand and starts to try to pull me upstairs. I stay stationary.

"Babbyyyyy. Come onnnnnnn!!!"

"Finnneeeee!!!"

We head upstairs and before I'm even in the room, Jeanne gets under the blanket. When I get into the room, I find her holding one of my sweatshirts close to her chest. I pretend not to notice.

"What do you want to watch?" I ask.

"THE WILLOUGHBYS!!!!!!"

"Ok, Ok." I grab the remote and put on Netflix. Then, I look at her.

"Why need that when you can have the real thing?" I ask, pointing to the hoodie she's holding. She holds her arms out towards me. I lay down in the bed and pick her up and lay her on top of me. When the character, Jane, starts singing her signature song near the end of the movie, Jeanne starts singing too. Since the volume is really low and Jeanne is half asleep anyway, I muted it so I can hear her singing.

(Play this song while you read the lyrics please!)

All of my life
I thought I was right
Looking for something new
Stuck in my ways
Like old-fashioned days
But all the roads led me to you

The house that you live in don't make it a home
But feeling lonely don't mean you're alone
People in life, they will come and they'll leave
But if I had a choice I know where I would be

Through the lows and the highs, I will stay by your side
There's no need for goodbyes, now I'm seeing the light
When the sky turns to grey and there's nothing to say
At the end of the day, I choose you

Now I found the strength
To make a change
And look at the magic I found
No matter the name
Or where you came from
'Cause no one has much figured out

The house that you live in don't make it a home
But feeling lonely don't mean you're alone
I finally found where I feel I belong
And I know you'll be there with wide open arms

Through the lows and the highs, I will stay by your side
There's no need for goodbyes, now I'm seeing the light
When the sky turns to grey and there's nothing to say
At the end of the day, I choose you

I choose you

Through the lows and the highs, I will stay by your side
There's no need for goodbyes, now I'm seeing the light

Through the lows and the highs I will stay by your side
There's no need for goodbyes, now I'm seeing the light
When the sky turns to grey and there's nothing to say
At the end of the day, I choose you
Oh, I choose you
I choose you

She is fully asleep now. Someone knocks on the door. It's Ellie and Nick.

"Hey Guys!" Ellie yells.

"Shhhhhhhhhhh!! Jeanne is obviously asleep!" Nick argues.

"Ooops!" I'm just over here laughing at them.

"Anyways, dinner is ready," Nick says.

"Thanks, I'll wake her up in a minute. Before you guys go, can you take a photo of us?"

"Yeah!" Ellie grabs my phone and takes a couple of photos.

(The bottom photo)

She shifted so I turned onto my side

(Pretend the girl is facing the other way and that it's in a bed)

"Baby... It's time to wake up. Food's ready!"

"Mhhhmmm. A few more minutes? Please?"

"No baby. I'm sorry. The food is getting cold. You know how gross Salmon en Papillote is when it's cold."

"I don't want to get up thoooooo." I sit her up in my lap and slip one of my sweatshirts on her.

(Like this but 1. They aren't eating, and 2. Jeanne is 75% asleep)

I lay her back down and grab a matching sweatshirt from my closet and put it on because I am still shirtless. Then, I pick Jeanne up and start walking down the hall to the stairs.

We are eating in the living room today so I lay a now 100% sleeping Jeanne on one of the couches. I go into the kitchen and find that Mom has made us plates.

"Thanks Mom!"

"No problem Tango-8!" I walk back into the living room with the plates and see a still sleeping Jeanne sprawled out on the couch. I walk over to her and set the plates on the coffee table. I sit on the couch next to her and whisper in her ear.

"Honey, it's time to wake up. Mom got you some food." She doesn't budge so I shake her a little. Still not budging.

"Dad, she isn't waking up. How do I wake her up without her hating me?"

"She won't hate you. Do you know her favorite song?"

"Yeah."

"Sing it then."

"Do you really think that will wake her up?"

"Yeah. If you don't believe me, ask Ziva."

"Oh, it will definitely wake her up," Ziva interjects, coming into the room.

"Ok then." I stare down at Jeanne and I start singing.

She is awake and smiling up at me.

"It's about time you woke up!!"

(A.N. Sorry I haven't posted in a while. Here is the chapter I promised you! Anyway, I'm in highschool now! I have some pretty hard classes too so it's getting harder to find good times to write. First block is APUSH, second block is Fitness For Life, third block is Honors Algebra 1, fourth block is Intro To Theater, and after school everyday, I have rehearsal for the fall play so I'm pretty busy... Anyway, Hope you liked it!)
