It was a normal day at NCIS for Team Gibbs. McGee was with Abby in her lab helping her with computer stuff, Tony and Ziva were doing some paperwork and Gibbs, Gibbs was getting coffee as usual.

Ziva was just done when she saw that Tony was looking at her with a smile on his face. ''What's up, Tony?'' She asked with an eyebrow raised.

''Oh, nothing, Ziva." He said while his smile grew bigger.

"No, there is definitely something up Tony, and you are going to tell me what." She said with a tone she only used on him while walking slowly to his desk. ''So, what's up?''

''I'll tell you what's up, Ziver. Dead Navy lieutenant at Norfolk Naval Base.'' Gibbs said while walking into the bullpen. ''Grab your gear.''

When they got there they all switched in their gear and got to the body.

"Navy lieutenant Junior Grade Lauren Sterling, Boss.'' McGee said.

''And?'' Gibbs asked expecting more information about the lieutenant.

''That's all there is, Boss.'' McGee said confused. ''It looks like her information is gone. I'm going back to the Navy Yard and find out who did this.'' McGee added and then walked away.

''TOD and cause of death, Duck?'' Gibbs asked.

''Around midnight, two o' clock to be precise, Jethro. It looks like she was killed by the stab wounds, but we''ll only know for sure after mr. Palmer and I examine the body.''

''Alright, thanks Duck. Tony, Ziva question the w-'' Gibbs wanted to complete the sentence but got cut of by Tony.

''Witnesses, on it Boss.''

They all returned to the Navy Yard and Gibbs talked to the mother of the lieutenant.

''Miss Sterling, did your daughter have any enemies or did she have a problem at work or with a boyfriend or something?'' He asked while handing her the tissue box that layed on the table in the conference room.

''I don't know about enemies Agent Gibbs, but she did have a boyfriend named Max Earl that went completely crazy when she stopped their relationship," She said. ''He came to my house when she visited me, I think he was following her but he said that if he couldn't have her nobody could."

"Does he still come?" He watched miss Sterling shake her head no. ''Do you have his phone number?'' She nodded and wrote it down. ''Thank you for your time, miss Sterling, just call when you remember something.'' He said gratefully and then he walked down to Abby.

''Abby!" Gibbs called loudly so Abby could hear him. Gibbs gave her a Caf-Pow and asked: ''What you got, Abs?''

''Results from the tox screen test show that she was drugged she also drank alcohol but she wasn't drunk so I think that the drug was in her drink. Also the knife that was found at the crime scene had handprints on it and the handprints were from one Max Earl.'' She said with a proud smile, and her smile grew even bigger after she got a kiss on the cheek from Gibbs.

''Thanks Abs.'' He said with a little smile and then quickly went upstairs to the bullpen.

''Stop what your doing.'' Gibbs said walking into the bullpen with a fresh cup of coffee.

''Why, Gibbs?'' They asked in unison.

''Because Abby found the killer's handprints on the knife. McGee trace this phone number, it's the number of the killer Max Earl, lieutenant Ross' ex.''

''On it, Boss.'' McGee answered and he traced the phone. ''He's at the house where lieutenant Ross lived.''

''Dinozzo, David, with me.'' He said while getting his gun and badge out of his drawer. Quickly Tony and Ziva did the same and followed Gibbs to the elevator.

(Home of the lieutenant)

Gibbs, Tony and Ziva quickly got to the house of the lieutenant, with guns drawn Ziva picked te lock of the door and they went inside. They saw Max sobbing on the couch saying: ''What have I done? What have I done?'' Gibbs told Tony and Ziva to put their weapons back in their holsters and then he walked slowly to Max.

''Max, you know what I'm going to do right?'' Gibbs asked talking soothingly.

''I-I confess, I killed Lauren and I regret it so much!'' He shouted frustrated. I totally deserve to be arrested and I'll even write my confession down if you want to.'' Max said.

Gibbs let him cry on his shoulder and then got him up putting cuffs around his wrists. "You are under arrest for the murder on Navy lieutenant Junior Grade Lauren Sterling.'' Gibbs only said that rule because he confessed and for that reason he didn't need a lawsuit.

(Navy Yard)

Everyone on Team Gibbs was happy because they solved the case in one day even Vance congratulated them on it.

They heared the elevator ding but they didn't expect who were behind those doors...
