And she plunged into the water moments later shivering at the sudden chill it brought to her. She tried to do what he said but since it was so knew she wasn't sure how to move in the water.
His grip tightened on her hand as he pulled her away from pipes just floating in her water. She wasn't good at this. And she panicked when she felt her foot not moving. It was stuck. She struggled too move but she couldn't.
And then she let go of Jethro's hand. She finally pulled her foot out and looked around. Jethro Gibbs wasn't to be seen. So Jenny Shepard attempted to kick and push but it was so hard.
Suddenly she felt him again. It was very fast to her. She felt the warmth of his hand and then she was on top of the water. Taking in a deep breath she shivered, fearing that he was hurt. When she saw he was fine she fell down and lie there.
William Decker and Stan Berkley ran into the room. And that's when she lost it and passed out right where she was.
"Stan call an ambulance" Gibbs said. He pulled over to Jenny's body which lie motionless on the floor. He felt for a pulse but there wasn't anything to feel for. Then he started CPR.
"D %* it Shepard" William Decker shouted seeing that Gibbs needed to do the CPR. He then switched to mouth to mouth. Stan came in with a few doctors right was she woke up. She spit out lots of water as she did so.
The doctors decided she was fine, but they wanted to keep her for a few hours. She argued but they won.
That night...
Leroy Jethro Gibbs worked hard on his boat. It was actually starting to look nice. He sensed someone was behind him and looked up to the stairs. Jenny Shepard was there, a beautiful sight to see.
"Can I come in?" she asked.
"Yeah" he said grabbing a cup and pouring bourbon into it. "Drink?"
She accepted and looked at the boat. It was very well done.
"I just came to say thank you" she said softly avoiding eye contact.
"For?" he asked.
"Not letting go. It was a dumb ** thing to do but...thank you"
He nodded and began to walk upstairs. He beckoned her to follow and she did. Upstairs started awkwardly. "I'm sorry about Shannon and Kelly" she said. "Ducky told me when I told him I-" she stopped.
"Ducky told me" she finished avoiding eye contact. And when she looked back up he was right there in front of her. An opportunity. Slowly she tilted her head and he did too moving closer into a deep kiss.
When air became a problem he pulled away. but kept his hands on her. Her fingers went through his hair as he lead her to his bedroom.
A touch of water was all it took...
