Chapter 1: The Email

The bullpen was quiet as the members of Gibbs' team were hard at work finishing off paperwork. Suddenly all four computers dinged informing the owners of a new email. Tony was the first to open the email and let out a groan.

"What is it Tony? A message from your father?" Ziva joked from across the bullpen.

"Haha very funny Ziva. Check your email." Tony responded.

Ziva did as she was told and quickly opened her inbox and looked at the last email she received. She let out a low growl after reading the message causing Tony to laugh.

"Not so funny now, is it?" mocked Tony.

"Guys what are you talking about, I'm trying to work here." McGee moaned from behind his computer.

"Check your email Tim!" Abbey exclaimed as she came into the bullpen, "We have fun times ahead of us."

McGee quickly checked his email and sided with Tony and Ziva's reactions as opposed to Abbey's.

"Great." he said sarcastically, "Just what I love doing. Wasting four hours of my day for some pointless training exercise."

"I know right!" Tony agreed loudly with McGee, "This team has no issues with sexual harassment right?"

"What with the four of you being married to each other DiNozzo?" Jenny stated coming down the stairs, making Tony jump.

"But Jenny, you are with Gibbs! And it's not like our marriages interfere with our work." Ziva protested.

" I'm well aware of that." Jenny said, "The DOD on the other hand stated that we all must attend the mandatory sexual harassment training or the team gets split up."

The four exchanged shocked glances before Abbey piped up "Well everyone is going, even if I have to drag you there myself. I will not survive if this team is split up. You guys are my family and I will not be separated from my family. You are all going to listen to what the sexual harassment person has to say and none of you will complain. Has everyone got that?"

Four heads were quick to nod at the frantic Goth. Gibbs however did not.

"Gibbs did you hear what I said?" Abbey questioned the silver-haired agent.

"Yeah Abs, I heard you. I don't agree with this but I'll go." he responded, appeasing the young scientist.

"Good. We all have an understanding." Abbey stated firmly, before turning and heading back to her lab.

"Right that's settled and it didn't take too much persuasion." Jenny stated, "Jethro can I see you in my office please?"

Gibbs gave a terse nod of his head and followed the director back to her office. With the boss gone, McGee made a quick escape to follow Abbey back to her lab, leaving Tony and Ziva alone in the bullpen. Ziva and Tony regarded each other from across the now empty bullpen. Ziva suddenly rose silently and made her way over to her husband's desk, where she bent down and whispered something in Tony's ear. He gulped before silently following his wife to the nearest supply closet and locked the door.

It was safe to say that no work was done by team Gibbs for the rest of the afternoon.
