Jenny was frozen as she stood in the bathroom trying to tame her hair; she really wished she had pulled on more than a flimsy oversized t-shirt. Suddenly 2 strong arms wrapped themselves around her waist, pulling her close.

'Cold Jen? Because I know how to fix that, come back to bed'

'Jethro we have spent the entire weekend in bed, time to go back to the real world '

She squirmed as he kissed her neck and traced her thigh with his fingers, swatting his hand away when he tried to creep up under her t-shirt, laughing she told him, 'Go get dressed for work, just because you're sleeping with your boss doesn't mean you're getting to wander in late'

'Fine you win' he let her go and went to turn on the shower, then he grabbed Jenny around the waist again and pulled her into the shower with him, ignoring her noise of protest, not that she protested for long.


McGee flinched slightly as he felt yet another rubber band pelt his cheek

'McLoser don't ignore me, I asked you a question'

Letting out a deep sigh McGee looked up from his computer at Tony who was standing next to him wielding yet more stationary, 'No Tony I don't think Gibbs and the Director are having a torrid affair'

'Well then you really shouldn't be a detective because that's what all the evidence points to'

'Tony how on earth did you come to that conclusion?', Fed up with the near constant bickering that had went on for the best part of an hour now and slightly stunned by his insistence that their bosses were going at it like horny teenagers, Ziva couldn't help but get involved.

'Well Zee-vah, they both now leave at a decent hour, Gibbs is in an almost constant good mood, as is the Director, she's a red head and we all know the bosses' fondness for that hair group, he spends an awful lot of time in her office and have you seen some of the heated glances they've been shooting each other?. So when I sat down and thought about it I came to the answer that they are very definitely doing the bad thing, and having one hell of a time from the looks of things, mind you', he laughed and looked wistful, 'I think the Director could be wild, you know that whole thing ice cold in the boardroom red hot in the..'

'DINOZZO!', Tony jumped about five feet in the air on hearing Gibbs's yell, turning round to face him he began backing nervously away and mentally preparing himself for the neck brace he would no doubt be in need of after this head slap.

Gibbs stormed into the centre of his team's area and glared at his supposedly senior field agent. 'You obviously have far too much spare time on your hands, so to keep you busy you can finish off all the case reports from the last month', he leaned forward and growling menacingly he added, 'And just be glad the Director didn't hear what you just said', and with that he smacked DiNozzo so hard that the agent later told his team mates his teeth rattled.

Sitting down Gibbs surveyed his team who were busying themselves with work, and DiNozzo who was hastily gulping down some painkillers. He wasn't too surprised that Tony had figured out his and Jenny's relationship, they had been together for 4 months now and they practically lived together. But still they wanted to keep things quiet, neither one wanted the world and their dog giving opinions on the relationship.


Jenny hung up the phone and sat down at her desk, trying and failing miserably to keep the grin off her face. She was pregnant. At first she had put down being late to stress, but 6 weeks had passed and nothing. Not only that but she had been having trouble around certain foods and smells and just a few days ago she had had a dizzy turn when getting up from her desk forcing her to sit back down and breathe deeply until it passed. Not really putting her symptoms together she had made a doctors appointment without telling Jethro as she hadn't wanted him to worry. They had run a few tests and the doctor had just called back with the result, she was ten weeks pregnant. Smiling she started to plan how she should tell Jethro the good news.


It ended up being a quiet day, in fact the last few days had also been quiet, something which didn't sit to well with Gibbs, as it usually meant something big was in the air, but he couldn't really justify making his team sit and do nothing so he sent them home and headed up to Jenny's office to convince her to finish for the day.


The silver Ford sat at the kerb outside the expensive Georgian Townhouse, its occupant watching as the black Sudan pulled up and a laughing couple exited. He watched as the man pulled the pretty red head into his arms and kissed her, she pulled back, whispered something in his ear and then twirled out of his arms and ran laughing to the door, with him quickly following.

For months Alex Katz had followed Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs, plotting his revenge. Killing him was too easy, torturing him first while fun still didn't seem enough and then it had came to him, he wanted him to suffer for the rest of his miserable life. To know the feeling of true misery and despair. The plan had come to him after the red head, Director Jennifer Sheppard, had entered the picture. Alex could see how much she meant to him, it was obvious he loved her. Alex knew all about Gibbs's lost family and his failed marriages, but now it looked like Gibbs was finally moving on. He was going to put a stop to that, grinning to himself he thought how much he was going to make Gibbs pay, and Jennifer Sheppard was the key.
