Beginnings of Darling Desire (Trilogy NCIS)

24 - Tony

  I woke around 9 am and the girls had already gone out. "Boss, aren't you usually at the office by now?" I asked as I saw him still sat in his pj's and a cup of coffee in his hand "I am usually but something that Talia said earlier is still rolling around in my brain" he replied. This isn't like him, he never usually does this. "What did she say exactly?" I enquired "She was asking when it was our turn to tie the knot." he replied with a slight dry chuckle at the end. This shocked me so I decided to sit across from him. "And what did you say? I hope you didn't shoot her down too harshly" I commandeered "Well I suggested that we should perhaps wait until the twins are two years old and she took it surprisingly well" he sighed "You do realise women taking things well is just a front? Jesus, Gibbs. You would think you would learn after wife number 2" I groaned inwardly "It's different this time Anthony, we've got the twins to consider. I love her very much too I just don't know how to tell her." He said to me. "Well you need to be more honest with her because you know how much she loves you. And plus with what's happening next week, it might make her jealous that Audrianna gets to do what she has wanted to do for a long time" I said to him. I heard him groan and grunt as he stood up "I'm going down the range. You coming?" He huffed. "I wish I could, Arlo and I have our final fittings in an hour so I can't" I said and walked downstairs to get some food
