Gibbs didn't know where he should go, he needed time to think, but outside of NCIS. So he went for coffee no. 2 but drank it at the shop. His head was still spinning, he couldn't believe that Abby loved him since the first day and never had said anything but he also didn't say anything. At the beginning she only was a very attractive and interesting person to him, but slowly their relation grew more and more and they always knew what was happening with the other person or what she was felling. To him she was always special, but because of that he didn't want to risk their friendship by telling her that he loved her. He wasn't sure about Abby's feelings, but now he got his affirmation that Abby really really loved him. And he was glad, really glad. Anyways he still was engaged to Hollis and he could imagine that she still would want to marry him, she had tried so hard and even had proposed to him just to make sure she'll get the marriage soon. And could he expect a declaration of love to Abby in this moment? Her parents just died! Or should he continue to behave like a good friend until everything has normalized?

At NCIS Hollis was still trying to find a plan how she could take her revenge on Abby. Jethrow would always protect her and the team too. She had to find a way to show Abby up, in front of everyone, there had to been some juicy details in her past. She left the bathroom and went to her car, she had to cool her eye and somehow find some juicy details in Abby's life and then she'll demonstrate Jethrow what a slut his Abby is.

Meanwhile the team was still shocked about what had happened. His boss was about to get married yesterday and they hadn't been informed? Abby's parents died and they hadn't been informed? And Gibbs had left his wedding without getting married and they hadn't been informed? Somehow they felt a little bit excluded. And Tony still was upset about Hollis behaviour, how could she insult Abby in such a way? Abby was like a sister to him, he felt like her older brother and needed to protect her whenever she was around. But they had not much time to ponder about the things because Director Vance told them that they had a new case to solve.

Later that day everyone had things to do. Abby was analyzing the material they found, the team was doing research and Gibbs went to visit Ducky. Somehow he had to talk about the whole situation. When he entered Ducky's lab he found him at dismembering the dead body.

"Oh hello Jethro! My congratualtion"

"Hi Ducky! Congratulation? On what?"

"Congratulation that you didn't marry this person. I still don't like her."

"Duck! That's my decision, you know?"

"Well yes, but you haven't had luck in your marriage since Shannon and you know I told you that she was the right person for you! Believe me! I remember in 1983 I told a friend of mine not to marry this woman..."

"Ducky! I wanted to talk to you about Abby. How's her condition? She had to endure a lot in the last 24 hours."

"Well, what can I say? She's sad, distressed, and alone, she really needs some support of her friends and especially of you, Jethro, and you know you're very important to her!"

"Yes, I know Duck, and I'll support her as much as I can."

"And what about your fiancée? I've heard she's very annoyed about all this things. You have to be there for her too! How do you want to make this possible?"

"I don't know Ducky, but Abby is more important now. She suffers a lot more than Hollis!"

"Jethro, can I ask you something and please tell me the truth."

"Ducky! I always tell you the truth, you're my best friend!"

"Well, could it be that you're in love with Abby and not with Hollis?"

"Duck..." Gibbs didn't know what to say or how to behave. He was sure until yesterday that he had feelings for Hollis, but today everything was chaotic and he didn't know what he felt. Abby was really important to him, but did he really love her? More than Hollis? More than Shannon? Abby was the only one he had told about Shannon and his daughter. Oh, damn, he really had feelings for Abby and really deep feelings.

"So, Jethro, why don't you tell her then?"

"Ducky...it's complicated. We're friends, nothing more, at least not yet. I mean, she had just lost her parents and I was about to marry someone else. I can't tell her now!"

Hollis was trying to find some information on the internet, but she couldn't find anything compromising against Abby so she called her best friend Maria because her husband was private investigator. And very quick her problem was solved; he was going to take a closer look at Abby's life and past.

Everyone of the team had visited Abby in her lab and told her to be there for her and help her organizing the funeral. In the evening Abby was very exhausted, but she didn't want to go home. There were a lot of things which remembered her of her parents. She had already shut down all her babies and was waiting for Gibbs.

"My silver-haired fox, can I stay at your house today?"

Abby was spinning around, knowing exactly that Gibbs was walking into her lab, she always knew when he was coming down to her lab.

"Of course you can. I already told you, you're always welcomed in my house."

"And...and what about Hollis? Does she live at your house?"

"No! And I don't think she'll appear today because she's still upset that I left during the wedding."

"Alright then let's go!"

Later that evening Abby and Gibbs had eaten some Chinese Take away and Gibbs went down to sand his boat and drink some Bourbon and Abby drank some too, a lot more than was good for her. So Gibbs had to carry her upstairs later that night and he softly let her down on her bed because he wanted to let her sleep properly, he'd take his couch, which was good enough for him. But Abby didn't want to let him go.

"Gibbs...please stay a bit." She slurred "I...I need you now, near me. Please can you hold me?"

Gibbs could never refuse a thing to Abby so he sat down next to her and Abby had already knocked him down by hugging him very strongly and now she was laying a top of him. There was electricity in the air between the both of them.

"I'm sorry Gibbs!" and with that Abby kissed Gibbs on the mouth. At first Gibbs was shocked, or surprised but then he let his emotion take over and kissed her back. Abby was starting to undress him slowly and he began to undress her too. He wanted this so much he had to admit, although he shouldn't take advantage of Abby being drunk and lonely, but he couldn't get a clear thought and continued to explore her body, the body he'd longed for so long.

Abby was surprised that Gibbs kissed her back, she hadn't expected it. But she felt so empty and she wanted to feel alive and Gibbs made her feel alive. Oh God, how much she loved him was not normal. She wanted him so badly and her wish would be fulfilled.

They loved each other and enjoyed the feeling of being home and being happy and satisfied. After this they fell into a blissful sleep, Abby on top of Gibbs. What they didn't recognise was, that there had been made photos outside by the private investigator of Hollis...
