Author's note: This fic is finally finished, this is the last chapter, I'm sorry it's short and sweet but I wasn't really sure what to write without dragging it out any longer. I hope you like it! Goodbye. :-)

Agent Gibbs left interrogation a happy man, Lieutenant Ackland had confessed to hurting both Ben and Tony, and he'd given enough information about Dinozzo senior to keep the FBI happy. It looked like the worst was over, and his team could get back to normal. He headed to the bullpen so he could let his team know, not wanting them to have to wait any longer than they needed to.

"I've got something!" McGee exclaimed, jumping up from his chair and looking around his teammates.

"You have?" Tony asked, his voice sounding slightly surprised.

"It's nothing big, so don't get too excited, but it's enough to bring him in."

"What's that McGee?" Gibbs asked, as he entered the bullpen.

"I found something on Dinozzo senior, something that will allow us to bring him in."

"Good job McGee, although we might not need it, Ackland gave me quite a lot of information on Mr Dinozzo, enough for the FBI to put together a good case."

McGee looked a little upset for a minute, thinking that all his hard work had been for nothing, and then he smiled, realising that it didn't matter, as long as Dinozzo senior got what he deserved.

"I can't believe it's finally over," Tony said a few hours later, as the team were about to head home.

"You can get on with things now," Gibbs replied, standing in front of his senior field agent's desk.

"Easy as that?"

"I know I can't just click my fingers and everything will be fine, but it has to be a weight off your shoulders to know that the Lieutenant has confessed and is on his way to jail, and that your father will hopefully be joining him very soon."

"Of course it is, but it doesn't mean I just forget everything that's happened. I just hope that I can put things behind me, I don't know how fast it will happen, but maybe if I throw myself into work; keep myself busy I'll get over it quickly."

"You can't rush things, they take what time they need to sort and that's fine. You know we're all here for you, if you need anything, you need to talk, take some time off."

"You're being awfully nice, it's very un-like you!"

"I can be nice when I want to be Dinozzo, although if you don't want it, I can go back to being not so nice."

"Nice is good for now, I don't think I could deal with anything else at the moment, but you can't keep it up, it's just not you."

"I can keep it up as long as you need Tony, don't forget that I'll always be here if you need me."

Tony smiled at his boss, glad that when the chips were down he would be there to help out, and that he didn't have to worry about dealing with things by himself.

"So how do I make you change back?" Tony asked, not wanting his boss to be nice from now on.

His answer was a whack to the back of the head, which caused him to smile, he'd missed those. He wasn't completely ready to go back to normal, but at least he knew that he could count on Gibbs to help him there. He looked up to find hiss boss already walking to the elevator, he smiled again and grabbed his sig from the drawer.

"You coming Dinozzo."

"On your six boss."
