I'm sure Stella will have her ways to get him shirtless. :devil: Ok, big update this morning

In the afternoon Gibbs, Jordan and the twins took a nap in the outside living while Mac and Stella took a walk down the bay. Holding Stella’s hand Mac stopped and turned to take in his beautiful pregnant wife. Stella looked at him questionably.
“What Taylor?” She grinned at his smirking face.
“You know how attractive you look in that tankini?” His palm gently touched her stomach and felt some movement.
“That’s a foot.” Stella giggled. “Your off-spring’s been doing a lot of kicking lately.” She took off her pareo and spread it on the sand. Mac warmly kissed her and helped her to sit down. He then sat next to her.
“Don’t hassle your mummy.” He spoke to her stomach. He looked up and faced a bright smile.
“You know that you look awfully cute when you do that, Taylor?” Stella gave him a little kiss on his nose and pulled Mac in to lay back with her. Half on top of her his hand he caressed her belly.
“I am so lucky to have you, Stell.” Mac spoke gently. “I don’t know what I’d do without you.” Stella smiled at his loving words.
“Well, for one thing you wouldn’t be able to do this…” Her lips touched his and she demanded entrance to his mouth. Mac lifted his body up so he wouldn’t hurt his unborn child. “I’d always dreamt about making it out on a beach.” Stella grinned. “So what do you say, Taylor?”
“Time to silence you, Gorgeous.” Mac smirked at her raising a brow. He then leaned in and took control of her tongue, his hands roaming over her beautiful body.

Abby and Adam had found a nice little restaurant the day before and Abby had insisted that the two couples should try it out. So after the twins were settled, Jordan and Stella got dressed for dinner. Mac and Gibbs were waiting for their ladies outside in the living area.
“Come on, Jordan!” Gibbs called upstairs. “How long does it take to get dressed?” Mac grinned at Gibbs’ impatience. Stella appeared in a white summer dress that showed her big belly.
“She’ll be right down, Jethro.” She patted him on his shoulder. She then moved over to Mac and turned her back to him. He got the message and helped her with the last part of her zipper. Jordan appeared in a light ocean blue dress.
“I have slight sunburn.” She mocked as she entered the outside living. “Good thing that parasol protected the kids this afternoon.” Gibbs checked her out.
“Maybe you should use that parasol yourself.” He kissed her hello. “Other than that you look gorgeous.” He took her hand so they could get going.
“Jethro is right, sis.” Mac handed Stella her purse. “That’s no minor sunburn.”
“I want to have a tan on my wedding day. It won’t be that bad.” Jordan took Gibbs’ hand.
“Not having a touchy tomato for a week. Now move it, Angel.” Gibbs sighed as he pulled Jordan out of the door.
“They sound like a married couple already.” Stella chuckled at their little banter. Mac smirked and hit her bum to get moving.

The restaurant Abby had advised was pretty full, but there was a lovely table on the terrace. During dinner Stella told Gibbs and Jordan the plans she had made for the wedding day. Jordan was very pleased with Stella’s effort.
“Why don’t you redo your vows as well?” Jordan wiggled a brow at Gibbs when she picked up her glass of wine. Mac and Stella looked at each other.
“Not a bad idea, Jordan.” Mac agreed. Stella nearly choked in her glass of water.
“No way! I look like an elephant!” She shrieked as she set her glass back on the table.
“No you don’t, you just look very pregnant, Gorgeous.” Mac disagreed. “But I do love the idea.”
“Then you’d better not keep telling her that.” Gibbs dryly advised Mac.
“Ow come on, Stell!” Jordan whined. “You’d make a beautiful pregnant bride.”
“D’Angelo...!” Stella got up. “Conference room!” She ordered.
“Excuse us, gentlemen.” Jordan got up and followed Stella. Mac and Gibbs grinned at the little convo the ladies were about to have.
“I wonder who’s gonna win this round.” Mac took another sip of his wine.
“Not going there to find out.” Gibbs grinned at both women’s stubbornness.
When Stella and Jordan hadn’t returned fifteen minutes later, Mac started to feel uneasy. Gibbs too had a strange feeling in his gut. Silently he gave Mac a nod for them to check it out. They arrived at the ladies room and found Stella’s purse, her belongings spread on the floor. There also was a right shoe. Yet no sign of Stella or Jordan...
