Mistletoe Magic

Disclaimer: I own nothing but the plot.

Authors' Note: I have this planned as a three or four part story. It is McAbby but i might add some Tiva.

As the elevator opened Monday morning, Gibbs stepped out, coffee in hand. His steel blues eyes scanned the room. He chuckled to himself. Christmas decorations covered nearly every horizontal and vertical surface. A huge 6ft Christmas tree stood in front of the window. Another large tree stood on the opposite side of the room. Garland was strung on the stairs, each desk and around the elevator doors. Walking to his desk he noticed that each of his agents was there. All of them looking tired, despite having yesterday off. He noticed each of their desks was also decorated, complete with a mini Christmas tree perched at the corner of each desk. He got a horrible feeling, slowly turning he glanced at his own desk. Now covered with bright decorations. Only one person could do this and get away with it. He smiled slightly, Abby.

He looked around at his agents again. Tony sat at his desk, feet up with his hands crossed and perched an top of his head, his eyes closed. Ziva sat with her elbows resting on her desk. Her face resting on her closed fists. Her eyes blinking open and closed. A quick glance over at McGee, staring blankly at the computer screen in front of him. His fingers moving on the keyboard at only half his normal speed. Just as he was about to say something the elevator doors opened and Abby bounded out. A smile plastered on her face. She carried a coffee carrier in her hands. Striding into the bullpen, she stopped. She looked around. She glanced at Gibbs, She placed to coffee carrier down on his desk, lifted her fingers to her lips and whistled loudly. She and Gibbs watched, amused, as each agent jolted in their chairs. Tony nearly tipping over backwards in the chair he struggled to right himself. Ziva dropped her arms in front of her and she sat straighter in her seat. A red mark marred each side of her face from where her fists had just been resting. McGee's fingers picked up speed as he drew his face back from the screen. Abby laughed. Each looked at her. Gibbs moved to behind his desk and sat down. Abby picked up the cups and placed one in front of each agent. "One for each of my little elves. Thanks for all of your help yesterday, guys." Each nodded, sipping from their cups. It figured,Gibbs thought, Only Abby could get them all to give up their only day off to decorate the entire office. Gibbs' phone rang, picking it up he listened. After a few minutes he hung up. Grabbed his SIG and badge from his drawer. Standing up, he said,"Grab your gear. We've got a dead Marine. McGee gas the truck. Ziva call Ducky. Tony with me. Abby...lab"

"Yes, Boss."

"On it, Gibbs"

"On your six,Boss"

"Be careful, bye." The elevator closed on Abby waving goodbye.

Down in her lab, Abby danced around to the music thumping out of the speakers. Decorating every surface in her lab. She tossed tinsel onto the tree, adjusting a few glass bulbs before stepping back to survey her handiwork. She tilted her head slightly and squinted her eyes, something was missing. She absently spun the tip of one pigtail around her finger. After about a minute she realized what was missing. She picked up the small green sprig ball topped with a red bow and stretching she attached the mistletoe above the lab door. Standing back, she nodded her head in satisfaction, she was done. She smiled mischievously, oh who, she wondered, was going to be the first victim of the mistletoe.
