McAbby - Accidentally in Love
(Inspired by a youtube video: NCIS Accidentally in Love - Mcabby by flickerkite)
Disclaimer: Sadly, I don't own any of these charecters, and I am definitley not making any profit off of this. They all belong to CBS/Belsarius, and will be returned in the condition I borrowed them in. (No, sorry, I can't magically make Tony not drool over EVERY single hot lady he sees. Soz!) Anyway, all rights reserved, blah blah blah, please don't sue me. K Thanks) Oh and the very beginning is actually the opening scene from the season 4 episode 'Skeletons' (I changed the end of the scene a tiny bit though).
Rated M just to be safe. If you are under 18, or 21 in some jurisdictions, please stop reading.
Abby walked into the office, seeing McGee, Tony and Ziva all sitting in their desks typing away (well in Tony's case, playing a game) on their computers. She walked up to McGee, a hand on her hip and holding a candy bar and a crumpled dollar bill in the other.
"Give me a dollar!" she demanded, looking at him.
McGee looked up, confused. "OK, what's wrong with that one?"
"The machine wouldn't take it, and I want a candy bar," she explained.
"What's wrong with that candy bar?" He asked, taking out his wallet.
"It has nougat in it!" Abby said, rolling her eyes, tapping her foot impatiently.
"But you hate nougat." McGee, once again, stated the obvious.
"I know!" Abby yelled. "It was a mistake, McGee. Do you have a dollar?"
"All I have are big bills..."
"What is nougat?" Ziva asked cutting him off.
"It's whipped dolphin fat," Tony explained.
"No," McGee disagreed, "that's the filling in clowny cake."
"That is a myth!" Abby exclaimed, getting impatient. "Would someone PLEASE give me a dollar?"
Tony pulled out his wallet as everyone looked at Abby funny, never having seen her act like this before. "Sure, I got one," he replied, handing her a dollar bill.
"Thanks," Abby said, taking it from him and turning away as Tony reached for the other one. She noticed the weird looks she was getting. "Gosh, it's like some kind of crime to not like nougat!" She exclaimed as she stormed out.
"I don't even know what nougat is!" Ziva said in frustration, throwing her hands in the air at Abby's retreating figure.
"It's a cream - made from sugar, honey and nuts," Gibbs said as he walked in, taking a sip of coffee. He sat at his desk.
"Did anyone else just see what happened with Abby?" McGee asked, still confused.
"Yeah," Tony said. "She stole my dollar."
Down in her lab, Abby sat, finally somewhat satisfied. The snickers bar sat on the very corner of her desk, with its hateful nougat, and she unwrapped her peanut butter twix. She smiled as she took the first bite, thinking that twix and CafPOW! made a pretty good breakfast. She kicked off her heeled mary jane shoes, leaned back in her chair and thought about how her life was. Awesome job, awesome co-workers... everything just as she wanted.
Except the fact she lived with Gibbs right now as she couldn't find a place in time. They were doing remodling in her apartment building, and after two nights the noise had bothered her so much she asked Gibbs if she could stay with him for a bit, to which he readily agreed. Oh, and the boyfriend, or lack of one.
She was ready to settle down, not get married of course, but find someone to share her life with. Maybe have a child someday, though she wasn't quite sure of that one yet. Though the Spencer's online store had some pretty cute baby goth clothes. She could just imagine a mini-Abby running around with black pigtails too, always happy.
She smiled, thinking of the pictures in her mind, and sipping her CafPOW!. Today was going to be a long day, she thought.
McGee, who was wondering about the way Abby had been acting, walked across the lab and pulled up the extra chair. "Hey Abby," he said, smiling.
"Oh hi, McGee!" she said, breaking out of her thoughts. "You ever heard of 'Matriarchs of Doom?' They are my friend's band, just started out."
"No, but if you play it, I will listen," McGee said. She pressed play on the CD player and instantly some hardcore drumming began, interlaced with piano, violin and hardcore guitar. It was a woman lead singer, with an ethereal voice, and it wasn't like anything he had ever heard before.
They listened in companionable silence for the first track. "This is amazing," McGee said. "And this is only the demo?"
"Yah," Abby said. "Here." She pulled a copy out of her desk drawer. "I thought you might like it, so I got you a copy too." She blushed a little, handing him the CD.
McGee looked at her, noticing her uncharecteristic reaction. He smiled. "Thank you, Abby," He said. They sat there chatting about nothing for awhile, then McGee had to head back upstairs.
Abby could have kicked herself in the head. Her heart was racing and she was finding it a little hard to concentrate, when McGee's smile from her gift kept popping up in her mind. She went over to the window, a thought of realization dawning on her.
She was in love.
