Hey! I'm back. Thanks to MissFriend87 for the title :) and editing :D It might be easier to understand what's going on in this story if you go back and read 'Intern' my first story (And review. . . If you can :) but this is the sequel and I hope you enjoy :)
Disclaimer: I do not own NCIS only Kelly and now Vincent
Kelly was barely awake, upset, hung-over, and ready to go back to bed as she headed into the bullpen that morning. The rest of the team wasn't in yet. She had some extremely over due paperwork to get done before they all got in that morning so she decided to go ahead and get it done. She hadn't expected to see the one person that was making her upset in the first place, Vincent Friend. Yet there he was, sitting at her desk wedged in between Ziva's and Gibbs'.
"Go away," she told him, as he opened his mouth to speak.
"Ok," Vincent got up and walked around to the other side of the cubicle wall to his desk. She counted as 10 seconds went by before he popped his head over the only thing keeping them separated.
"Is this away enough?" he asked her in a sarcastic tone. Kelly groaned. It had been a month since Gibbs hired her on his team and the only time she had had any peace were the first few days. Then Vincent had shown up and, even though it was her assignment, (an assignment she now hated with every fiber of her being) she couldn't stand him. He started working with the Team right next to Gibbs and his desk was right across the wall from hers. He wasn't a jerk and he didn't treat her mean, he was just extremely smart and he KNEW it and kindly reminded her of it everyday. It didn't help that he was very good to look at to, Chocolate Brown eyes, Chiseled features, Roman God. . . 'ok enough' she told herself.
"You know, sometimes people don't always want to be around other people." He cocked his head in confusion. "Like, to actually work alone in silence," she finished, trying not to stare at his face.
"I would think you like to have people around you, that dude from autopsy is always nearby," he told her matter of factly.
"That dude from autopsy's name is Palmer and, believe it or not, I like him being around, he's my friend." She was getting more annoyed by the second.
"I thought I was your "friend" too." Vincent plopped a package of Nutter Butters on her desk and turned around to his. 'He is just trying to suck up', she thought to herself.
Tony made his way into the bullpen, late, again.
"You are late Tony" Ziva informed him.
"You are late Tony" Tony mimicked her. Ziva stuck her tongue out at him.
"What are you Mcdoing Probie?" Tony asked McGee and saw that Kelly was sitting next to him.
"Nothing" Kelly said, snickering. She looked up at Tony trying to hold her chuckles in, he didn't notice.
"So how was your date last night?" Tony questioned the new intern.
"You had a date Probie?" McGee asked her, glad he finally had someone to call Probie.
"It wasn't a date!" Kelly tried to defend herself. "We just had drinks!"
Tony studied her face knowing she was lying, the same way he could always tell when McGee was lying about a woman.
"Oh. . . " Tony smirked "You did way more than just 'get drinks,'" and after being satisfied to see Kelly blush he smiled even more
"So, what did you and Ziva do after dinner last night?" Kelly asked Tony after a moment of silence. Tony smile fell and he turned around and walked back to his desk, without a word.
"Ohhhhhh…" McGee and Ziva said in unison.
"What?" Kelly asked.
"What for it. . .five, four, three, two. . ." Tony added.
They all sat in silence for a minute.
"I still don't get it?" Kelly finally told them.
"I don't understand," McGee gaped. "Gibbs ALWAYS walks in when we say something snarky."
"This isn't right," Tony declared. "The boss must be losing his touch." Before he even had a moment to realize what he had said, Gibbs hand hit the back of his head so hard he was positive everyone in the room had felt it.
"Still think that DiNozzo?" Gibbs asked him.
"No Boss!" DiNozzo answered, sitting back down at his desk.
"Kidnapping in Arlington, grab your gear," Gibbs announced, heading to the elevator.
"On it Boss!" all four agents yelled.
As they headed to the elevator, Kelly looked back and noticed Vincent walking around the office. He turned to see her getting into the elevator and gave her thumbs up and mouthed 'Good luck' as her mind wandered to the night before, and the days leading up to it on the elevator ride down.
