'Oh god… so this is what a heart attack feels like!' Gibbs cried felling his heart pounding loudly against his chest. Gibbs finally got his breathing under control and looked over at Kate's empty desk. Even though she wasn't at her desk, Gibbs could see her sitting there. Resting her head in one hand and her desk phone in the other, probably discussing lunch plans with Abby. He quickly stared back down at the file on his desk as he heart began to race again. 'Damn you Kate for wearing a skirt today' he cursed throwing his fists down on the desk.

"Boss?" Tony asked looking up from his computer.

"I'm going for coffee" he grumbled quickly rising to his feet and raced for the lift.

"Tony!" Kate cried seeing him at her desk. "What are you doing?" she asked rushing over from the lift.

"Nothing…" he paused. "By the way you've got mail" he said pointing to the letter sitting in the middle of her desk.

"Where's Gibbs?" Kate asked looking over at his empty desk.

"In MTAC with the Director" Tony replied. "Aren't you going to open your letter?" Tony question.

"You read it!" Kate accused pointing her finger at him.

"Me? Would I do something like that?" he joked.

"Yes! Kate answered and quickly picked up the envelope to see if it had been opened.

"Your lack of trust in me is a little disappointing" Tony growled as he moved back to his desk.

"Sorry Tony" Kate apologised dumping her bag on the floor and sat down in the chair.

"I wasn't going to tell Gibbs you were late back from lunch but I might now" he shrugged staring at his screen. Kate shook her head and opened the envelope. She frowned seeing the letter typed up on a computer.

Dear Kate,

I've noticed you around and I just wish to let you know how beautiful you are. Please don't be alarmed by this letter or freak out because you don't know me… yet.

"What doesn't it say?" Tony asked interrupting Kate.

"None of your business" Kate said looking up.

"Who's it from?" he asked trying a different angle.

"Doesn't say. Just has a x at the bottom" Kate shrugged putting it back in the envelope and away in her desk draw.

"Oooh a secret admirer!" Tony cooed.

"DINOZZO!" Gibbs shouted walking down the stairs. "Back to work" he said entering the bullpen.

"Kate has a secret admirer" Tony grinned.

"I don't care if she won the lotto, back to work!" Gibbs growled.

"I found it Kate!" Abby cried coming out of the lift.

"Thanks Abs" Kate said watching Abby walk towards the bullpen. "Where was it?" she asked a Abby stopped in front of her desk.

"In my bag" she shrugged handing over the phone. Abby glanced over her shoulder at Tony beaming away. "What's going on?" she inquired.

"Kate has a secret admirer" Tony answered.

"Would you stop telling people!" Kate shouted.

"I'm sure we can identify this person by the handwritten" Abby said looking back at Kate.

"Going to be a bit difficult if they used a computer" Kate laughed.

"A return address?" Abby asked.

"Nope and no name at the bottom ether" Kate said before Abby could ask.

"It's nice to see you Abs but can we all get back to work!" Gibbs shouted.

"Yes boss" Kate mumbled staring at her computer.
