This is too long to put in 1 post, so I have to split it up in 2.

Disclaimer: I don’t own Ducky, Tony, Kate, Gibbs or NCIS. Beth, Lee, her mother, and Abigail are all mine though, and so is this story. I’m just playing with the rest. Donald P. Bellisario owns everything else.
Author’s Notes: I’m blaming Channel D (or was that M?) for this one. I don’t remember who said it, but before Meat Puzzle even aired, there was chatting about depression. The evil Thrush bunnies started hounding me, pestering me and I actually started writing it before the show aired.
Tony sauntered into the office back from lunch, thankful to be back in the building. The rain outside dampened any pleasant thoughts he may have had about the warming temperatures. As he stepped off the elevator, he spotted the tall brunette leaning against his desk chatting with Kate.
Quickly adjusting his shirt and running his hands through his hair he continued down the stairs to his desk. The brunette smiled with anticipation; sliding up to her he began to purr, “Ah Elizabeth, don’t tell me you missed me…..wait a minute,” he stopped dead in his tracks and looked around, “You’re dad’s not here is he?”
Elizabeth smiled and said, “No,” trying not to laugh.
“Why would you care if her dad was around Tony?” Kate asked, looking forward to the answer.
Tony stopped looking around and turned to Kate explaining, “Because he’s big and scary.”
“And because he threatened to kill you if you asked her out again,” Ducky said as he walked past Tony to greet Beth. Ducky finally arrived at the bullpen after changing out of scrubs into a dark suit with a blue shirt. His raincoat was draped over his arm with his hat in hand as he walked down the stairs. Gibbs followed closely sipping his coffee.
Kate looked at Tony and smiled. The thought of her juvenile co-worker being threatened with death over a woman amused her to no end. She watched as Tony gave her a faux amused smile and walked around to his desk and sat down.
Elizabeth turned to face Ducky, giving him a broad grin. The older man gave her big smile and said, “Elizabeth, it’s good to see you.”
“’Uncle’ Ducky,” she exclaimed as she threw her arms around his neck and gave him a big hug. Ducky smiled at her warmly and wrapped his arms around her returning the hug.
“Uncle,” Kate said confused, “I didn’t know you have a niece Ducky.”
“He does, but she isn’t. Her dad’s an old friend of Ducky’s,” Gibbs said as he walked past the group. “How’s your dad?” He asked as he sat behind his desk.
When the hug finally ended, Beth replied, “Oh you know him, he refuses to retire until he’s old and senile,” Still staying in Ducky’s embrace.
“Even then he’d still insist on working,” Gibbs quipped.
“And even then he’d still work,” Ducky joked a step behind Gibbs.
Beth smiled fondly at the teasing her father was receiving at the hands of his old friends. Suddenly remembering something she turned back to her ‘uncle’ and said, “Oh, I almost forgot, mom wanted me to give you something.” The brunette then leaned in to kiss him on the cheek.
Tony, feeing left out asked, “Did she send me anything?” Leaning forward, he smiled hopefully.
“Oh yeah, thanks for reminding me,” She said disengaging herself from Ducky’s embrace. The brunette walked toward Tony and slapped him on the back of his head.
“Hey,” he exclaimed, rubbing his head.
“I always did like your mom,” Gibbs laughed.
“So ‘uncle’, tell me you haven’t eaten lunch yet,” Beth asked, walking back to Ducky.
“I was waiting for you my dear,” he said, offering her his arm. “I’ve been looking forward to your lovely company,” He added
The brunette smiled knowingly perturbed at her ‘uncle’. She placed her hand in the crook of his arm. “Dad called you didn’t he,” Beth asked, suspicious her father ruined her surprise visit.
“Oh you know him. He just wanted to make sure you were alright. He worries about you,” the older man said as they walked up the stairs to the elevator.
Kate watched the pair leave. Smiling gleefully she turned to Tony and teased, “Looks like Ducky got the girl.”
Tony looked at her only mildly amused and retorted, “He may have won this round, but the battle goes on.”
“I’ll be sure to tell her dad that,” Gibbs commented as he picked up his phone to make a call.
Tony looked at Gibbs and frantically said, “I was just kidding boss. No need to call Lee and tell him I said anything.”
“Then why aren’t you working?” The former marine questioned as he punched in the last number.
“Right boss,” he nervously responded as he turned his attention back to working on his computer.

Ducky gallantly held the antique chair out for Beth. In return, she smiled and sat down, smoothing her skirt as she settled in. Crossing over to the other side of the table, he pulled out a matching chair and also sat down. The pair looked over the menu in silence as they decided on what to eat. A couple minutes after the pair was seated the waitress whirled by to introduce herself and take their order.
After the waitress had left with their order, Ducky turned to Beth and asked, “How’s the puppy?”
“Abigail’s keeping dad in line,” the brunette smirked.
The former blond chuckled at the thought. He easily remembered the day Lee had acquired Abigail years ago. His long time friend had been visiting after one of his mother’s dogs had just had a litter. One of the puppies became rather attached to Lee, never straying far from his lap. As he was packing to leave, the energetic puppy jumped into his bag and, despite numerous removals, she continued to jump back in. The old friends looked at each other and Ducky told Lee he was welcome to take the puppy home.
“Sounds like a good life. Speaking of good living, is that boyfriend of your treating you ok. Is he ever going to propose?”
Beth grinned at the older man as she set her glass back onto the table. “Funny you should ask,” she paused momentarily for effect, “we spent Christmas with mom and dad and, that night, Jason proposed.”
