Kind of a random little thing, but it's...cleansing. Right now I'm also trying to write one more short little fic that will wrap up my What About Me? little trilogy arc, and a few more little oneshots I wanna get done before I start another multiple chapter story. If you check out my profile you'll see details about two stories that I won't publish until they're completely done. Which will probably not be for another few months at least. The next big story I will be publishing I already have in mind:)

Again check out OPERATION: Break the Tension, I finished that recently.

Now, about the first ex-wife (second ex wife) since nothing is said about her on the show. I used who most writers use, that redheaded lawyer named Ginger from season 3? I think? You know finding out about that wife would make a good episode. Heck, they've already devoted three to Diane.

DISCLAIMER: I don't own NCIS

If you want serious ones with characters you know, skip to the next one.

Mostly third person, referring to what Shannon would say and how she saw their individual relationships with Gibbs. Since fanfiction wouldn't let me write the summary I wanted to...


She knows about each and everyone of them. The one night stand, the jilted girlfriends, the ex-wife's that resent her, and the one that meant something more. To the majority, the only thing she would do is apologize. To four of them, there's something more to say.


Ahhhh, Ginger, his first ex-wife, his second wife. If she ever got the chance to talk to this woman, she'd thank her.

Because even though their marriage had been short (barely made it past a year). Their divorce had been a relatively short and painless affair, and well...the best at being forgotten. Or at least, compared to his other ones. Gibbs had even attended this woman's second wedding!

Ginger hadn't loved Gibbs, and he hadn't her. What had made it work as long as it did was the fact that neither were afraid to admit that their feelings didn't go beyond that of a platonic nature, and both were okay with the fact that their spouse wasn't in love with them.

It wasn't like their marriage had been the perfect apple pie life, but it also wasn't like relationships with certain- other woman- that shall be named at a later date.

What had caused them to eventually split was simply, work. Only this time, it wasn't one-sided. Gibbs had just started at NCIS and was still on Franks team, and Ginger was an up-n-coming lawyer fresh out of the Bar Exam. A passionless marriage simply wasn't in the cards.

Though if Shannon ever got the chance she'd thank Ginger for the fact that without her (and without the help of a certain grisly agent) that first year, Gibbs probably wouldn't be alive to this day. If Ginger hadn't made sure there was food for him to eat every night (even if it was just Chinese takeout). If Granger hadn't been there to hide the bottles of bourbon. If Ginger hadn't been there to simply keep him from being lonely. Leroy Jethro Gibbs most likely would've swallowed his own gun long ago.


I think I wrote this one the way I did is because it's utterly hilarious to me, the concept of Gibbs actually having an okay marriage! An ex-wife he didn't argue with every time they saw each other! LOL! Consider this an OC/Gibbs pairing.

You remember my motto,

Don't like it. Don't review it.

Next up, Diane. (yippee...)
