He was a man who loved his job. Special Agent Gibbs had never been the man who stayed away from work without a reason.
The last week was hard. The case was tricky and forced the team to work harder than they were used to. They had been observing a couple for the whole week just to find out, they had nothing to do with the case but then they finally found the man who had murdered three women. The whole team didn't get enough sleep and when suddenly Gibbs mobile rang and a friend asked him to look after his house while he was on holiday, he gladly accepted. On Sunday evening he packed things for a week in a house located directly at a lake in the mountains, put everything in his car and started driving.
"He'd never been late!" Special Agent Antony DiNozzo got up from his desk on Monday morning and started nervously walking around in the bullpen. "I got a call, our suspect is in Norfolk, we have to observe her… but our boss is gone!" he explained his nervousness to his co-workers Caitlin Todd and Timothy McGee. McGee followed him with his eyes. "Did you talk to the director? Maybe he knows something we don't…" Tony stopped and looked at him. "Gibbs would kill me, if he's late because of a traffic jam or anything and I alarm the director…Probie!" he almost shouted. "I'll ask Abby, she knows everything!" Tony went back to his desk and grabbed the phone. "Or you just give him another quarter of an hour, then he should be able to make it out of a traffic jam…then you can call Abby and ask the director!" Kate settled back in her chair. The young Agent nodded slowly and put the phone back to the desk.
It was already Monday morning seven o'clock, when he saw the first hills of the mountain range he was going to. He left the inner city and drove into the mountain range. The mobile on the seat beside him had been ringing several times, but he never thought of answering it. He was sure they would be able to spend a week without him.
Another hour later he finally found the house. The lake shimmered orange in the light of the rising sun. Gibbs parked the car and went out. Lonely and quiet, exactly what he was looking for. He brought his bags inside and went out again to enjoy the look over the smooth surface of the lake.
Tony hurried down the stairs from the director's office. "Okay! I'm the boss now!" he grinned. Kate looked sceptical and McGee let out a quiet laughter. "The director told me, we should do our job until he's back. So…We'll go observing her!" The suspect was an attractive blonde woman in Tony's age, so it didn't surprise Kate that he was so happy about it. "So, we don't look for Gibbs? Just hope that he'll come back?" Kate got up an walked towards Tony. "No! You'll search for him!" Tony replied and his grin grew even more. "Why me? You're his number two, why should I go?" she asked defiantly. Tony stopped grinning and looked down on her seriously. "Just because of that! I'm his number two, so I have to lead the team, while he's gone. I need McGee's technical skills for the observation. So, only you are left!" Kate sighed and went to her desk. With an annoyed expression she grabbed her keys and headed to the elevator. She hated it to know Tony was right.
