Disclaimer: I don't own anything associated with NCIS. I just like messing with the characters.

A little scene set mid-'Hung Out to Dry', ep 1x2. The first two lines of dialogue are from the actual episode; the rest is from my imagination.

Abby & Kate discuss how they got into working at NCIS. Implied ongoing Kibbs. 149 words. Enjoy. R&R, please!


Maybe

A KIBBS DRABBLE/FICLET

'How'd you get into this?' Kate asked suddenly.

'I filled out an application,' Abby replied with a shrug. She turned to Kate, laughter in her eyes. 'What about you, sleep with the boss?' she joked.

Kate grinned. 'Maybe.'

Abby almost dropped the baggie she held. 'I was joking,' she spluttered.

'I wasn't,' Kate shrugged, feeling bold.

'You slept with Gibbs?'

Kate blushed. 'Yes, I did,' she said, struggling not to laugh at Abby's expression.

'Was it just the once or..?' Abby trailed off.

Kate's sly grin said it all. 'It's been quite a few times, now,' she laughed.

'I,' Abby said, 'am insanely jealous.'

The two women burst into giggles just as Gibbs returned to the lab. He took one look at Abby and Kate, both bent over laughing, and turned on his heel.

'I'll come back later,' he said, hurrying from the lab. He would never understand women.
