'And where does that leave Leon Vance?' Came a familiar voice from the person right in front of me. 'No director.' There was a slight smile from the female in front of me, to the person placing a coffee in her hand, before she stiffened. Not moving out of my way. 'We had a deal.' The person on the other end of the phone must have said something because the female snapped her phone shut before turning around. I was amazed to find that in knew her.
'Gisella, right?' she looked at me before nodding slightly.
'Anthony DiNozzo, how is everything going?' I shrugged slightly, as her phone rang again. One look and she had the same face as her father when he was in one of his moods. 'What Director!' I winced, if I had talked to that to my director, I would have been fired on the spot. 'I will go right now. See you in five.' Gisella turned back to me, a sad expression on her face. 'Would you like company on your way back to NCIS?' I nodded slightly.
'Sure, why do you need to go,' I asked after ordering several coffee's and a tea.
'My Boss has a meeting with your boss, who has a need for me to be there.' I frowned slightly.
'What a way to tell me what you're doing without actually telling me.' she took a deep breath before smiling.
'My father trusts you right?' I nodded and watched as she smiled. 'If I tell you something, you have to promise not to tell anybody. I have to tell somebody, who isn't emotionally or personally connected to me, so they can help me with pros and cons.' I nodded again, grabbing my order from the waitress.
'Let's walk and talk.'
'I have had a job lined up for me for about five years. I have the experience and the qualifications. I have actually been left this job from the past person. The current person doing the job has to have his job reinstated every six months, just in case I change my mind and decide to leave fieldwork and take it. The issue is that one of the employees has a connection with me and would personally try to get away with everything he could. Do you think that it would be a good idea for me to take the job?'
'Who would you be kicking out of their position?' she lifted an eyebrow as she took a sip of her coffee. She was channelling her father, and channelling him well.
'Does it matter, the more objective you are, the more I'll listen to your opinion. I'll tell you when you have given me the answer.'
'I think that if you have had this job on hold for several years it is yours by right to take it. However the person who you are kicking out of the position should be offered another job.' She nodded with a slight smile, taking another sip of her coffee. 'I was wondering,' She lifted an eyebrow. 'If you wanted to go out with me one night?' she was silent before smiling.
'And what are you going to do if my father finds out you have asked me out?'
'I would defend it, but respect him and you at the same time.' She smiled.
'I have Thursday free, before I leave for Europe. That okay with you?' I nodded with a smile. She snatched my phone from me before adding her number. 'It's Leon by the way.' I frowned slightly. 'The person who has the job left for me.'
'Wow.' I managed to say as we entered the elevator.
'I have friends in higher places than he does, and the friends that we share, have announced that they are more loyal to me than to him.'
'How many contacts do you have?' she chuckled at that slightly.
'Let's just say I have way more than Ziva.' We stepped out of the elevator, she immediately making her way to Leon's office with a higher level of authority than one should have when going to the Director of NCIS's office. 'it also helps that most of mine are still alive.'
'What is Gisella doing here?' Ziva asked as I sat down at my desk.
'Meeting with the Director.' Seeley coughed out a laugh before answering his ringing phone.
'Booth.' Again he moved away, a big smile in place. When he came back I caught the end of the conversation. 'Nuh, she'll be happy to see you. NCIS see you in five.'
