NCIS
IN THE BULLPEN
The team sat there in the bullpen at their desks. There's been no cases in the last 24 hours. Gibbs's phone rang, he answered it in a flash.
"Grab your gear we are going to France. We got two dead navy seals."
"Finally a case!" Tony said.
Everyone grabbed their gear and went to the plane. Gibbs sat alone, McGee sat alone as well and Tony and Ziva sat together.
"Remember the last time we were in Paris?" Ziva looked at Tony.
"Yeah."
They started to sound like Gibbs and Jenny. McGee glanced at them. Tony glared at him, McGee turned back to his phone. His phone kept making a annoying ding. Ziva turned to him and looked at him. But his phone kept dinging. Even Gibbs got annoyed with it.
"McGee!"
"Sorry guys, messaging Abby with my new phone."
McGee turn his phone to silence. Ziva dozed off and leaned her head forward. Tony pushed her head gently to the pillow, then she wiggled and leaned her head on his shoulder. Tony smiled charmingly. Ziva started snoring softly, Tony smiled at her snoring.
"Who's Snoring?" McGee asked?
"Shh, Ziva is sleeping."
"Wake her up." Gibbs said.
He didn't want to wake her up but he had too. He gently shook her shoulders.
"Ziveers wake up, we are half way there."
"… How long was I sleeping?"
"About twenty minutes."
"Oh."
Tony looked at her and thought, 'she is so beautiful.'
She yawned and looked at him, Tony just smiled.
McGee kept smiling and messaging Abby.
"We are here, Team."
Everyone got up and grabbed their gear. Gibbs thought, 'Tony and Ziva are just like me and Jenny were. I miss her so much.' They got to the crime scene. McGee took the photos, Ziva put up marks. Tony asked some questions and looked around bagging.
"When you all are done, meet me out side."
Tony was bagging a few more things, as McGee finished up photos. They wait a moment for Ziva then she was done. They walked outside and met Gibbs like they were told too.
"Okay, it's only four and I want you all at the hotel at six sharp."
"Wait, Gibbs your letting us go around for a few hours?"
"Yes, Tony I am. Go before I change my mind."
McGee walked around fast and grabbed his phone calling Abby. Tony and Ziva walked away together,
"want to go eat?"
"Sure, Tony."
Gibbs watched his team leave, his gut was telling him something he couldn't understand. Was it that Tony and Ziva are becoming closer? Or was it that McGee and Abby started talking like a couple? Whatever it was Gibbs was on edge. He started to walk down the sidewalk, he looked around. He remember Paris with Jenny. He couldn't get her off his mind, he missed her to much. He walked and saw a pretty long haired red head about his age. He started to walk fast to the woman. But he slowed down that wasn't his beloved red head.
"Jenny.." he muttered quietly.
Out of the blue he walked up to her at a cross walk.
"Jenny?"
"Sorry but it's Jacky."
He looked closer then said. "Oh I thought you were, Jen."
The woman smiled and walked across the street, Gibbs followed her. They stopped in front of a café.
"You know someone named Jenny?"
"No.."
The woman turned her face away as she said no, like she was hiding something. Gibbs looked at her with a hand on her shoulder. Gibbs stepped around in front of her.
"Jen?"
The woman looked down letting her long red hair fall in her face. Gibbs looked closer, a tear hit the sidewalk. He lifted her chin up so the woman would look at him. The woman jerked away from him, he cupped her face with his hands.
"Jen?"
"Jethro.."
"Jenny.''
Gibbs pulled her close, he kissed her forehead lightly.
"Jen, your alive. How?"
"No Jethro I-I c-can't."
Jenny jerked away from him, Gibbs grabbed her shoulder lightly.
"No, go away!"
"No, Jen."
"It can't be, Jethro."
"Jen tell me how your alive. Why didn't you call? Why didn't you come back to NCIS?"
"Because I couldn't without hurting you."
"What are you talking about, Jen?"
"Jethro, if I came back or called. The people who tried to kill me would have hunted you and your team down. So I had to stay out of the USA."
"What? I can take care of myself and you know that. I saw you there dead how did you live?"
"I wasn't dead Jethro. I was shot with a heart stopper but my heart was still beating but to low for anyone to know it was."
"You're here now, nothing to worry about. The whole team is here too."
"No, Jethro! You can't tell them.''
"Why?"
"Because…. It's to late. They think I'm dead and just don't."
"Jen, I have to tell them. Your safe with me here, I won't let anything happen. If you come back or not, I'm telling them."
Gibbs grabbed his phone and called McGee.
"Yes boss?"
"Call Tony and Ziva tell the team to get to the hotel now."
"Okay, Boss."
Jenny started to run away.
"Damn it! Get back here!"
"Boss?"
"Call them now!"
Gibbs hung up the phone and chased after Jenny.
McGee thought, 'who was boss talking to?' He called Tony's phone thinking Ziva would be with him.
"Yes, McGeek?"
"Boss wants us to the hotel now."
"It's not six."
"You tell him that."
"Okay okay. Ziva and I will be there in a few minutes."
Gibbs grabbed Jenny and turned her so she was facing him. She started crying softly, he pulled her close. She cried on his shoulder, she slowly stopped crying and started sobbing. He patted her back and said in a smooth voice.
"It's okay Jen. Your are safe, your coming with me and everything is going to be okay."
He kissed her.
"Your hair has grown out since seen I saw you last."
"I had to grow it out."
Her hair was almost to the her middle back.
"Come on let's go to the hotel and maybe get you a hair cut."
"You don't like my hair?"
"I'm teasing, Jen."
That made her smile, he smiled back at her. They started off toward the hotel.
