Jethro watched as his team sat down and just stared at him. Tony moved the box off his desk and McGee put his stuff back in place. Tony finally broke the awkward silence.

"So what's with the mustache boss? Going for a new look?"

Jethro looked at him. He shrugged and flashed a look up at the catwalk where he saw Jenny walking by. Their eyes met for a quick moment and then she entered her outer offices. Tony's phone rang and he answered, Ziva was checking her email, and McGee stood up and went down to see Abby. Jethro stood up and headed towards her office. He walked right past Cynthia as usual; she shook her head at him as he entered. Jethro found Jenny at her desk with her glasses on. She smiled when she saw him come in. Jethro shut the door and Jenny thought she heard him lock it. She took her glasses off and stood up. He smiled at her and slipped his arms around her waist while her hands were up against his chest. Their foreheads met.

"Did they get quite a shock?" she asked.

"McGee's teeth were very white when he smiled." He answered. Jenny chuckled.

"Explains all the caf pows."

Jethro smiled at her and leaned it and kissed her. She smiled against it. She then pulled away and sat down at her chair.

"We need to discuss public displays of affection Jethro." She said and put her glasses back on. Jethro frowned and moved and sat on the edge of her desk.

"I thought for now this was between us and nobody else."

"It is, however our work atmosphere cannot change just because our feelings have changed. If word gets out, agents will think I give you special treatment."

Jethro smiled and Jenny caught it.

"Okay." He simply said.

"What was that smirk?" she asked and sat back in her chair and crossed her legs.

"Just thinking," He answered. He put his coffee down on her desk and leaned in on her. She looked up at him and raised her eyebrows at him. "You left your earrings on my bedside table last night."

Jenny laughed.

"Oh so that is what you were thinking about. Well maybe I'll have to stop by and get them."

"Probably should, wouldn't have much use for me." Jethro said. He kissed her and she smiled against it again. She couldn't believe she was doing this, but she was happy. Jethro pulled away and left his coffee for her. Jenny took a sip from it and then threw it out.

"He has terrible taste in coffee."

LATER THAT NIGHT

"We should see if Bossman wants to come with us for a drink." Tony said as he drove him Abby, Ziva, and McGee to the bar.

"Because he would say yes to you Tony." Ziva said.

"He'd say yes to me seeing as I am the favorite." Abby said with a smile. Tony turned down Jethro's street and headed towards his house.

"Or Ziva." McGee said.

"I'll go in and if I need backup I'll have Abby come." Ziva said.

AT THE HOUSE

Pillows flung everywhere, door only cracked open, the only sound was the sound of heavy breathing and laughter. Jenny lay on top of Jethro with their legs intertwined and sheets wrapped tightly around them.

"I've really missed you Jen." He whispered into her shoulder. She looked at him and smiled.

"You avoided our conversation today about displays of affection by kissing me." she said. Jethro sighed. He looked up at her. She was part smiling. Jethro missed that.

"It's good to see you smiling. I've missed that." He said and brushed her face. She smiled and kissed him.

OUTSIDE

Ziva steps out and heads inside. The door is unlocked as usual and she walks in. She was about to head downstairs when she heard voices upstairs. She moved towards the stairs, but didn't go up. She heard heavy breathing and she then knew what was happening when she heard a familiar voice moan,

"Jethro…"

Ziva's eyes widened. She moved away from the stairs and looked in living room. She saw Jethro and Jenny's phones on the coffee table. She smiled.

"So Gibbs is the mystery man from Paris." She whispered. She smiled knowing her friend was happy. She walked back outside.

"He said not tonight. Best not to argue with him." She told Tony and the others. Tony shrugged and pulled out of the driveway. Ziva looked out the passenger window flashing back to Cairo safe house:

Ziva and Jenny were sharing a bed in the safe house. They had just gotten back from a rough OP and Jenny was in a bad mood. Ziva wasn't asleep; instead she was staring at the wall and had her back to Jenny. She then heard Jenny moaning in her sleep and she sounded upset. Ziva turned around and saw tears running down her friend's face. Jenny's eyes opened and Ziva turned on the light.

"Jenny… are you alright?" Ziva asked. Jenny nodded without looking over at Ziva. "I do not believe it since you have tears all over your face. Tell me what's troubling you? This is the third time this week."

Jenny said up and looked at her friend.

"It's nothing… just old memories coming back." She simply answered.

"From Paris?" Ziva asked. Jenny nodded. Ziva sat up more and looked over at her. "Did you leave him or did he leave you?"

"I… I left him, he gave me roses and when he wasn't looking I took off and left a note."

"Why did you leave this man… does he have a name?" Ziva asked. Jenny nodded, but answered,

"I'm not going to give it. He didn't fit into my five-point plan for my career. I never planned on falling in love."

"Why didn't you just tell him that?" Ziva asked.

"I was afraid for once in my life. Everything happened so fast and… I am love, I'm still in love, I just don't think it's enough."

"Do you really think it's not enough or do you want to believe it's not enough?"

"It… it doesn't matter. He has most likely moved on and so should I." Jenny said and turned off the light. Ziva watched her friend wrap back up and close her eyes. She felt bad for her friend. She sighed and laid back down and went to sleep.

"We're here." Tony said and pulled into the bar. Everybody got out. They approached the bar and went in laughing and talking.

"To save this life. We built together. We need another chance. It's like my whole life and my existence he holds in his hands."
