Neither Fornell nor Abby happened to notice the man standing across the street from the diner, holding a cup of steaming coffee and a very grim look on his face. Gibbs had left work, silently trying to dismiss Abby's apparent need to rush out, and headed straight for his usual coffee shop. While walking back to his car, he was shocked to see Abby—his Abby—and Fornell sitting together at the diner. Though the bigger shock was his surprise reaction to the scene before him; since he suddenly found that he was angry.

Gibbs stormed back to his car and arrived home faster than ever before. Cursing at himself, he remembered he was supposed to start the assignment; which, he had just earlier in the day learned fully about, tonight. 'Well that's just fucking great.' Turning on the laptop, which he had to promise not to break before the Director gave it to him, he logged onto the website and waited.

"Ok, Abs, here goes nothing. Fornell told you what to do, you can do this!" Abby tried to calm her nerves but soon learned it wasn't as easy she had originally thought it would be. Logging onto the site had been the first task, then she was prompted to create a profile. The basic questions, like name, height and weight, had already been given to her to use.

"Ok, here goes nothing."

Name: Madison. Age: 29. Height: 5'8". Hair: Black. Eye color: Green. Weight: 125 lbs. 'Cup size?? What the--oh hell', 38 C. Body type: Curvaceous/athletic. Marital status: Single and loving it. Kids: No.

"Now comes the hard part…" Fornell had told her to do this part herself, adding her personality to it while being careful not to include anything that would lead to her cover being blown. Unfortunately, while trying to answer the questions, all Abby could think about was a certain hunky boss.

Likes: Handcuffs, men who work with their hands, altered states, coffins, cemeteries, ducks, older men. Dislikes: Questions, sharks, and the rest I'll let you know later. Fetishes: "Kinky!" Looking for: A playmate. Age group desired: 35-60.

The next part of the profile consisted of various scenarios, which she had to answer what her response would be.

Q. Your partner surprises you by bringing up the notion of S&M, how do you react? A. "Oooh, your whip or mine?"

Q. You're presented with the opportunity to have a threesome, what are your thoughts? A. "I'm more of a full-body one-on-one kind of gal…more time to explore hidden depths of desire."

Q. Your boss at work makes a play for you, what do you do? A. "Scream 'YES, take me now! Hard and fast against the wall!'."

Q. You've been chatting with the same person over a period of time, she/he wants to meet you in person. Do you meet them? And how long would you wait to do so? A. "Depends on who I'm chatting with and what we're meeting for ;)."

Ok, finally, she uploads a picture that Fornell emailed to her; this would be her profile picture for the site. Now, all she has to do is enter a few chat rooms, make herself seem available, and wait. Scrolling through the various chat room topics, she finds a few that catch her eye. The first one she enters is a general military-based room. She doesn't have to wait long before she gets her first private IM.

Soldierboy81: What's up, sexy?

Kinky-Goth8: Just checking out the scene, I'm new to the site.

Soldierboy81: Oh, a virgin! Tell me I'm the first one to 'pop your IM cherry' on here.

Kinky-Goth8: Sure are! Are you in the military?

Twenty minutes and several cliché pick-up lines later, Abby makes her exit. She is after all, suppose to hit a few chat rooms. The next one she picks is Goth-centered, which she finds to be slightly enjoyable and highly amusing. Finally, she chooses one that is labeled "Semper-Fi: No such thing as an ex-Marine". Abby laughs, because she remembers Tony telling her a story in which Gibbs said a similar phrase, and enters the room.

Gibbs had become bored within the first ten minutes of logging onto the website. Now, it was two hours later and he felt as if he was going to go insane if he had to continue this any longer.

"I'm definitely asking the Director to reassign this case to someone else tomorrow." However, just when he was going to log off for the evening, he noticed a new member who entered the room. The screen name caught his eye first, since it reminded him of a certain co-worker. He tried to remember what Abby had taught him and clicked on the name to access the profile.

"Likes coffins, ducks, and men who work with their hands, hmm." Might as well talk to her, gotta start somewhere."

Semper-Fi16: I'm not that great at this IM thing, but I saw your profile and thought I'd say hi.

Kinky-Goth8: Hi, Semper-Fi16. How's your night?

Abby clicked on the screen name and couldn't help but feel a thrill rush through her as she read the profile.

"Hmm, Likes: Wood working, hard alcohol, giving commands, short skirts, and tattoos. Dislikes: Laziness, defiance, stupidity. I can work with this!"

Kinky-Goth8: So you're into tats, huh? Got any?

Semper-Fi16: Tats?

Kinky-Goth8: Yea, you know, tattoos.

Semper-Fi16: Oh…no, not on me.

Kinky-Goth8: Ah, so you just like to look then ;)

Gibbs found himself enjoying the conversation, although he couldn't believe he was sitting at home flirting on the computer with an anonymous woman. Thankfully, that 4th glass of bourbon was helping to calm his nerves; so he decided since he was going to ask the Director to reassign the case tomorrow, he might as well have some fun tonight.

Semper-Fi16: Depends on who I'm looking at.

Kinky-Goth8: Oh, and he flirts! A/s/l?

Semper-Fi16: I have to admit I'm new at this whole chat thing. What is a/s/l?

Kinky-Goth8: It's cool, my boss at work is a technophobe too. It means age/sex/location.

Semper-Fi16: 40's, is that an offer, and home.

Kinky-Goth8: Lol, you sound delicious. I'm sure you saw in my profile I have a thing for older men.

Semper-Fi16: Oh yeah? What's Lol?

Kinky-Goth8: Laugh out loud. And yeah, always have had a thing for older guys. They're more experienced where it counts ;)

Semper-Fi16: And where's that?

Kinky-Goth8: Well, I would say 'the bedroom' but in my experience, when it's that good you never make it that far.

Semper-Fi16: I agree. Most of my best encounters weren't in a bed.

Kinky-Goth8: Where's the most exciting place you ever had sex?

Semper-Fi16: Either on a street corner in Paris, or on a boat. What about you?

Kinky-Goth8: Sounds like you got some kink in you! Totally awesome. Um, I'd have to go with either in my coffin or at a cemetery. Though, honestly those times were rare. If I could choose, I'd want to have sex at my office.

Semper-Fi16: What kind of work do you do?

Kinky-Goth8: I work with computers. You?

Semper-Fi16: I'm retired from the Marines and make furniture.

Kinky-Goth8: You're a little young to be retired, there…what was your rank?

Semper-Fi16: I made a good living in the corp. I was a Lieutenant-Gunnery Sergeant. What brought you into this chat room, you don't exactly sound like you are in the military.

Kinky-Goth8: Lol, no. I have a few friends that were in the Marines and Navy. Plus, I have a thing for men in uniform, grr!

Semper-Fi16: I think I still have my uniform around here somewhere…

Kinky-Goth8: Oh really?

Semper-Fi16: Yep. Fits too.

Kinky-Goth8: Wouldn't suppose you'd put it on for me now?

Semper-Fi16: I'd love to, but maybe not tonight. Gotta save something for the second night.

Kinky-Goth8: You are intriguing, Semper-Fi16. Are you married? Fiancé? Girlfriend?

Semper-Fi16: None of the above, there's a woman I have my eye on but she has no idea.

Kinky-Goth8: Oh, I hear you! Did you read my in-depth profile? The part with the questions?

Gibbs quickly re-clicked on her profile and tried to find what she was talking about. Soon, he found it and immediately found himself intrigued. That was until he got to the question about 'your boss at work makes a play for you, what do you do'; and suddenly his pants were once again EXTREMELY too tight. All he could think about was another raven-haired beauty and…well, he needed release.

Semper-Fi16: Oh god! I can only dream the girl I mentioned would say something along those lines to me. I believe I need to excuse myself.

Abby, realized she didn't want the conversation to end; so she decided to be bold.

Kinky-Goth8: Why? I mean, after all this is what this site is for, right? Maybe I can help.

Semper-Fi16: Oh, well, I--

Kinky-Goth8: I can tell you're nervous. Honestly, this is my first time on the site too. I'm not usually one to…but…I want to help. There's something about you—

Gibbs really did mean to shut down the computer, really. In all of his years, he never expected he'd be engaging in what Abby called "cyber sex". Sure, he'd tried phone sex a few times, but it just never was quite the same as the real thing. However…he briefly thought 'what the hell' and considered the positives of trying this with someone he didn't know. It actually served as a slight turn-on for him. Besides, he could always imagine this girl was Abby…not that he would ever tell anyone else that!

Semper-Fi16: What are you wearing?

Kinky-Goth8: This is your fantasy, so you tell me.

Semper-Fi16: Alright…

Gibbs went over every sexy outfit he had seen Abby in over the years, trying to decide which one to choose. He had to admit he felt semi-dirty for having these thoughts; after all he had promised over and over again to protect her. Hell, she probably thought of him more as family than anything else. And yet…

Semper-Fi16: You're wearing a extremely short skirt—black, a tight button up top—white—that has a small black tie pinned to it, white thigh-highs, and tall black boots (the kind with the thick heel).

Abby was slightly taken back, thinking that she had an outfit similar to that. But then thought it was a common fantasy for males to want the whole 'school girl' thing. So, she shrugged it off.

Kink-Goth8: Oooh, nice choice.

Semper-Fi16: Thanks, I've, uh seen it before. Oh and you are also wearing a black collar around your neck.

Kinky-Goth8: Kinky! Now what?

Semper-Fi16: …I don't know honestly, I've never done this before.

Kinky-Goth8: Lol, it's ok. It's not like I'm a regular either. Why don't you do this, just pretend I'm that girl you were talking about earlier—even write as if you are talking to her. She's wearing the outfit you mentioned, what would you want to happen next?

Semper-Fi16: I would tell her to "Take off your panties".

Kinky-Goth8: I'm a thong kind of girl, myself…they're off. She would surely feel the air hit her under the short skirt.

Semper-Fi16: "Good girl". I'm sitting down, and I would make her stand up, just barely out of my reach, in front of me. Then, I would say, "slowly start to unbutton your top".

Kinky-Goth8: Is that a request or demand?

Semper-Fi16: More of a command.

Kinky-Goth8: Totally hot! It's cold. I am sure your eyes would fixate on her skin as it becomes visible. Do you want her to take it off completely?

Semper-Fi16: No, I just want to watch as she stands there, slightly embarrassed but yet turned on. Knowing that if she bent over just a little bit, I'd be able to see her most intimate parts.

Kinky-Goth8: Didn't your mother ever tell you it's not nice to tease a girl?

Semper-Fi16: Guess I never learned that rule. Now, tell me what you think she's feeling.

Kinky-Goth8: Exposed, horny, aggravated, nervous, impatient…

Semper-Fi16: She'd step closer.

Kinky-Goth8: Ok…

Semper-Fi16: I've imagined so many times, pulling her down so she sits on my lap with her legs on either side of my thighs.

Kinky-Goth8: Yummy.

Semper-Fi16: Lol. She has these looks…she would probably act shocked at first, not knowing what to say or do.

Kinky-Goth8: Remember, this is your fantasy, so pretend she wants you as much as you want her. I'm sure she'd play the part of the shy temptress at first; however, I can't see any girl with-standing too much arousing teasing.

Semper-Fi16: I would then pull her in closer to me, using my hands on her ass to slide her so that she's sitting right on top of my--

Kinky-Goth8: Mmmm

Semper-Fi16: Shit! We'll have to continue this some other time, just got a call I've got to take.

Abby frowned, slightly surprised at how she was both turned on by and disappointed by the departure of her mystery man. Deciding she had did enough for one night she signed off and headed to bed.
