He's there in the dark
He's there in my heart
He waits in the winds
He's got to play the part
Trouble is a friend


Jenny walked into the house with Riley trotting along next to her and saw Gibbs sitting on the armchair staring at Brendan's sleeping form.

Gibbs looked up and saw the two standing there. He sighed, standing from the chair and walked towards them. He picked Riley up and the three went into the kitchen so they wouldn't wake Brendan up.

"Jethro, what's going on?" Jenny asked as Gibbs put Riley in a chair.

"Brendan came, he's on antidepressants, I think Bonnie leaving has finally caught up with him" He said quietly. Jenny's eyes widened and she walked into the other room.

She sat on the coffee table next to Brendan and ran a hand through his hair. She looked down and noticed his bandaged hand.

"Hey" Brendan mumbled as he opened his eyes. Jenny frowned.

"Why didn't you tell me?" She asked. Brendan rolled onto his back.

"I didn't want you to worry" He said.

"What happened to your hand?" She asked. He lifted his head off the pillow and looked at his hand.

"I punched a wall. It's not broken, just really badly bruised" He said putting his head back down and looking at her. "I'm ok"


Ziva's head lay on Tony's chest, the rest of her body covering his. They were lying next to the lake, still dripping and their clothes were either in the water or somewhere in the grass. Ziva lifted her head and kissed his chest.

"What did you do when you went and saw Deron?" Tony asked. Ziva lifted herself off him slightly.

"What do you mean?" She asked.

"What did you talk about?"

Ziva looked away "I asked him to stay away from us" She said.

"Ziva. Do you still have feelings for him?" Tony asked. Ziva looked at him and sighed. Putting her forehead against his chest.

"No" She lied.

After a few minutes Tony moved slightly.

"Ziva"

"Hmm"

"I'm lying on a stick" He said. Ziva chuckled and stood up pulling him up with her. She pressed herself up against him and kissed his neck. He groaned, making her smirk against his skin.

"Do you think we'll make it to the cabin this time?" Tony asked a bit breathlessly as Ziva's hands wondered south.

"Probably not" She mumbled against his chest as she began to kiss down his body.


Andy flopped down on the couch, putting his head in Pippy's lap and sighed. "He's at Gibbs' place" He said.

"Why didn't we think of checking there first?" Cole asked from the armchair where he was sitting with Faith sitting in his lap.

"Isn't it his birthday next month?" Pippy said.

"Yeah, but I don't reckon he'll want to do anything if Bonnie isn't back by then" Cole said. A cry came from the baby monitor sitting on the coffee table and Pippy shoved Andy off her.

"Gah!" Andy said as he hit the floor. Pippy laughed and walked towards the bedroom to get Violet.

"How did Brendan and Bonnie get together?" Faith asked.

Andy and Cole looked at each other "It's a long story"


"At least give yourself something to numb the pain" Kate said crossing her arms as she looked at Ari, who was sitting on the hotel bed, in only his boxers and stitching up a large cut that ran up a portion of his thigh.

"It is alright Caitlin, I am almost done" He said putting a bandage over the gash.

"I'm sorry" She said "I should've realized that there was a tree there"

Ari stood as best he could and pulled her to him "Are you alright?" He asked concerned, running a hand over the cut in her forehead.

She nodded "Yeah. I'm ok" She mumbled as he pushed her hair back and kissed her forehead. She sighed happily and wrapped her arms around his waist. She laid head on his chest and breathed him in before kissing his neck.

"Caitlin?" Ari said.

"Hmm" She mumbled

"I think it is time" He said kissing behind her ear.

"For what?" She asked as he continued to kiss down her neck. He lifted his head to whisper in her ear.

"For me to give you a child"


"I think you broke me" Tony said from the bed while Ziva sat next to the window still wrapped in a blanket. They had managed to get back to the cabin after an hour and spending the rest of the day in bed...not necessarily sleeping.

"Have a tired you out Tony?" She asked with a smirk. Tony lifted his head off the pillow.

"No! I just…need sleep…" He said closing his eyes. Ziva chuckled and walked over to the bed and dropping the blanket. She crawled so her head was resting on his shoulder and an arm wrapped around his waist. In his sleep Tony put his arm around her and pulled her closer to his side.


McGee walked into his and Abby's bedroom to find her sobbing into a pillow in the middle of the bed. Two days beforehand he had taken Abby to have a check up at the doctors to see if everything was still alright from after her crash.

"Abbs, what's wrong?" He asked sitting on the bed next to her and rubbing her back "Abbs?"

"The doctor called" She chocked out. McGee looked confused.

"Are you alright?"

"No…He said that-t I can't have another b-baby" She sobbed. McGee stood and kicked off his shoes and climbed into the bed next to her. He pulled her into his arms and she sobbed into his chest. All he could do was whisper comforting words into her ear.


Man, I feel like a bitch for doing that to Abby.

Kari fans, don't you love me? Well...Maybe not for long...hehe...
