Ok so this is a sort of AU story where Jenny has Gibbs's position on the team. Jenny and the Director who I have made up have a romantic past that ended with Jenny's heart being broken so she doesn't feel she can trust men anymore let alone let herself fall in love. But will meeting Gibbs change that?

Disclaimer: I only own Daniel.

Murmurs of the heart

Special Agent Jenny Shepard once again found herself sitting at her desk in the middle of the pitch black in the middle of the bullpen, the only light coming from her desk lamp.

"Damn you DiNozzo" she cursed her senior field agents name one more. Being the leader of the MCRT had its perks: the higher pay, the better cases to lose herself in and challenge her and her team every day, but she hated that she had to review every single case files that her team had written before sending them to the Director.

And if that wasn't bad enough, he was the biggest ass whole she had ever met. Daniel Davis the man who bullied his way to the top, not caring who he hurt or whose heart he broke. The man had once been her partner in more ways than one, she had been young and foolish, swept away but his light blond hair and mysterious dark eyes.

The man whom had left her in a foreign city for a promotion only to find six months later that he had in fact been having an affair with Jenny without her even knowing, he had had a pregnant fiancé at home and soon after he had left Jenny was married to her. Daniel was the man responsible for Jenny not being able to trust her heart to anyone since.

Sighing she tried one more to decrypt the hieroglyphics that Tony called hand writing, at least Tim and Ziva's hand writings were ledge able and they handed their files in on time un like her senior field agent.

Jenny cringed as her eyes stung as a result of being strained and tired, she was getting older, she felt she would be forever alone.

Her mobile began to ring making her pick it up off her desk and check the caller ID, happy to find that it was Abby, the bubbly Goth she considered one of her best friends "Hey Abs" She greeted with a slight smile.

"Jenny, you have to get to Bethesda hospital like now" the Goth screeched.

"Why, whose hurt?" Jenny asked already out of her seat and scrambling to grab her gun and badge.

"Ziva called Tony fell down a flight of stairs at the apartment and they think he's broken his leg but they won't tell her anything and now I'm here and so is Ducky and I think Ziva's close to pulling a paper clip on one of the doctors" The usually plucky Goth began to ramble.

"I'll be there in fifteen Abby, hold Ziva down if you have too" Jenny grabbed her brown leather jacket off of the back of her chair and ran towards the elevator with only one arm in her sleeve.

"Jenny are you at the office again?" Abby asked in an annoyed tone. Everyone in their tight knit group knew a little about Jenny's past with Daniel and knew she worked late and hard so she wouldn't have to think about any of it and it worried all of them.

"Abs not now, I'll see you later" Jenny sighed with frustration before putting the phone down and shoving it in her pocket.

As she promised fifteen minutes later she skidded into the waiting room just as Ziva was about to lunge at the tall dark haired, kind of bony looking man "How's Tony?" the redhead asked making Ziva stop in her tracks.

"I do not know, this…" Ziva glared at the doctor "Person won't tell me anything because I am not family" she growled "I've already explained that I am his girlfriend" the Israeli's temper began to worsen.

"Well I am" Jenny lied making the doctor turn to face her "I'm Tony sister" she lied once more.

"No you're not" the doctor glared at her.

"Fine" Jenny huffed making her fringe go up out of her face "I'm not, but what I am, what we all are" Jenny pointed to her friends and team mates "Are special agents who hold guns, so if you don't tell us how Tony DiNozzo is we will get very angry" the redhead threatened lifted her jacket slightly so he could see her gun, see she meant business.

"Dr Gelfand" a voice boomed from the door way, all but Jenny turned to face the owner of the voice "You can go, I'll deal with them" the man spoke once more.

Jenny then turned and as if in slow motion, her eyes met a tall, handsome, well-built man, salt and pepper hair begging her to run her hands through it, but what got her the most were the shocking baby blue eyes, she had never been attracted to blue eyes before but his were so amazing she couldn't help but stair at him.

It was only when Ducky spoke did Jenny realise she was practically drooling over this man, "Dr Donald Mallard but you may call me Ducky" the ME offered his hand to the other Doctor.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Doctor Gibbs head of orthopaedic" he took Ducky's hand and shook it.

"How's Tony?" Abby asked from her place in-between Tim and Jenny.

Gibbs gave the women a small smile, seeing how concerned she was for her friend "He's got a broken leg like we suspected, he'll have to have a metal plate put in, I'll perform the surgery in the morning and then he will have to stay overnight and then as long as someone is will to stay with him and makes sure he comes for his check-ups then he should be free to go"

"Can we see him?" Ziva asked concerned.

"Of course" Gibbs nodded before walking out of the room and motioning for them to follow him.

Jenny though, was glued to her spot still in shock, a jab in her side made her turn to find Abby grinning at her "Close your mouth Jenny your drooling" she giggled before skipping off to catch up to Tim.

"I am not" Jenny protested following her friends, little did the redhead know but Gibbs felt the same way about her.

TBC…

What do you guys think, should I bother continuing?
