A Past Unfolds
Maura's POV
As I stood in the morgue, it was extremely difficult to concentrate on doing my job, as I stood with the body on the table in front of me. Come on Maura get your shit together, as I thought, I've got a job to do, but I couldn't help but think those blue eyes that sent shivers to my toes, the same as they did 9 years ago.
"Hey" said a voice behind me. I jumped a mile "whoa, where did you come from?, I didn't hear you come in". "yea, you were pretty wrapped up in your own thoughts" said Ducky, "you want to talk about it Caitlyn" he said. "So you know" said Maura "pretty obvious when after your murder there was no body." he said.
"I did it to protect everyone I cared about, I didn't have a choice, I've thought about it ever since" I said
"Everyone was devastated, I think Jethro was mostly, He mourned you for a long time, It was hard for him to handle, he's always been in love with you"
"What" my heart literally stopped "Wow why didn't he ever tell me that" I stammered "well, you do remember that were talking about Jethro here right."
"True" I said, just then the door opened and in stepped the man that had occupied my dreams for the better part of 10 years now. "Ok well hey I just remember I've got to go do that thing that I told you about, ka… en dr. Isles" said Ducky. As he made he's way out the door
"What thing" said Gibbs "I've got to call Abby" replied Ducky "Alright" said Gibbs and with that Ducky left.
Gibbs POV
That was weird, I felt like I had just walked into a very intense conversation "I'm sorry for staring at you like that earlier its just that you look like someone that used to work with me" I said "look why don't we step into my office so that we can talk" she said. Oh no what did I do, I was trying to be polite and respectful.
"Ok" as I followed her to her office "what's up?" I asked when she closes the door. Before she could answer her phone rang "Excuse me, I'll just be a minute", "ok" I reply. As I start to wonder through her office, something caught my eye a picture on the computer screen.
Naw it can't be, as I moved closer, I discovered it was, a picture of a younger Maura with different hair , KATE, with her arm wrapped around me. I knew it, that explains a lot such as my attraction for her, I wanted to jump for joy, I missed her so bad .Just then she came in.
"Sorry about that…." I cut her off as I crushed my lips to hers, she automatically started to kiss me back, when we both pulled away I whispered "I've always wanted to do that ", "oh Jethro I wanted to tell you so bad, but I had to protect you" she whispered "I know that doesn't matter now, I'm just glad that your alive."
