Here's the next chapter. The end of it might make you go WTF? but that'll be explained...eventually lol
Andie smirked and went up to the counter, searching for the perfect Airsoft gun. "I'd like to see that revolver there..." she said to the clerk as she looked through the different cases. The counter attendant pulled the Airsoft revolver out for her and handed it over the counter. "Works just like one, ma'am." He said, smiling a nearly toothless grin. Ronnie wandered slowly around the counters, inspecting each one thoroughly. Andie nodded, inspecting it thoroughly. "This will work...you got any that look like sniper rifles?" she asked, an idea sparking in her brain.
He nodded and went to a shelf behind the counter, pulling down the rifle and handing it to her. Ronnie grinned, pointing at a gun she'd found. "I want THAT one." She said gleefully. "Ok then get it!" Andie chuckled as she took the rifle from the clerk, looking it over. "Hey Ronnie, think Lee will like it?" she asked, holding up the rifle for her to see. "More than likely if you paint it the right colors, actually, scratch that see if they HAVE it in the right colors!" Ronnie squealed as the attendant hander her the Electric P99 Style Pistol Full Auto Blowback 230 FPS Airsoft Gun and she held it in her hands almost reverently. "I am going to KICK ASS!" she laughed. She then found a gun her husband would like, and picked up a small plastic water pistol for her son. "Ready, Andie?" She asked gleefully.
"Almost!" Andie said, grinning. "You guys wouldn't happen to be able to engrave that would you?" she asked, biting her lip. Nodding, the attendant pulled out a pad of paper. "It'll cost $24 extra, and takes about half an hour." He said, finding a pen. "What do you want on it and where?" He asked as Ronnie bounced over with her purchases. "Put 'L.J. Gibbs' and put it on the butt of the rifle please." she said, squealing with glee. "Hopefully he doesn't end up shooting me with it for doing this..." she snickered. He nodded and rang her up. "That all for ya, darlin'?" He asked. "I think so..." she said, pulling out her credit card. "OH! I need two containers of ammunition!" she laughed. "I almost forgot!"
Ronnie smacked herself in the forehead. "Sheet me too!" She said and grabbed a couple tubs of ammo, along with a few extra clips so she could reload faster. Andie giggled as she paid for her items and thanked the clerk. "So, how does lunch sound?" she asked, leaning against one of the counters. "That depends, whose paying, or do you wanna go Dutch?" She asked, grinning when the attendant quirked an eyebrow at them. "Dutch, I'm almost broke for the week." she chuckled. "Besides, Lee doesn't let me expense lunches with my mistress." she said, mock pouting. Ronnie laughed. "Yeah, right, I'm betting you still have a ton of money in your account, after all, Gibbs IS a government agent." "Yeah a government agent with three ex-wives!" she laughed. "Though I will say, that man spends way too much money on me. It's ridiculous!" she groaned, shaking her head and flailing her arms slightly.
Ronnie shook her head. "Oy vey." Was all she said as they walked out to the food court, leaving the poor attendant wide-eyed and confused. Andie flashed a grin at the attendant before jogging after Ronnie, picking a restaurant, ordering her food and settling herself at one of the tables in the food court. "We haven't had that much fun since my senior year in high school!" she laughed, running a hand through her hair. Ronnie hid her face. "Oh god, don't remind me of that." She said laughing as she sat down with her tray of food. "Oh come on! That Airsoft war the day before your wedding was LEGENDARY!" she giggled, munching on a fry. "I still can't believe we pegged Brodie in the same spot!"
"On separate sides of his forehead!!" She laughed. "On my wedding day he looked like Satan trying to pass for a human!" Ronnie died laughing almost choking on her burrito. Andie laughed. "I told him to try some concealer but no! 'I don't wanna wear makeup! It's too girly!'." Ronnie snorted. "God, talk about a memorable wedding day. OH and the cops that had half of the city blocked off when we were on our way to the hotel in town? Yeah, we weren't too sure about staying that night!" Ronnie laughed as Andie snickered some more.
Soon it was time to pick up the Airsoft rifle she had gotten for Gibbs. She thanked the attendant once again, wandering out with the white box they had put it in for her when she had mentioned that it was a gift. "Alright I'm ready to go now." she grinned, the light back in her eyes again. Ronnie smiled and thought to herself, 'Mission accomplished. DAMN I'm good.' '"Alright, girly, time to go decorate the pigpen!" She laughed as they walked out to the car. "Sweet!" Andie laughed, beating Ronnie to the car this time. "I can't WAIT to see the look on Lee's face when he sees this!" she looked like a little kid at Christmas time, grinning from ear to ear. Ronnie smiled and shook her head. "Girl, you never cease to amaze." She muttered under her breath as she got in the car and whizzed them back home.
Once the had gotten back to the house Andie quickly set to work, going into what had been deemed 'her' garage, as she had taken it over for all her crafting stuff since Gibbs had the basement. She pulled out all of her Halloween decorations and began sorting through them. "Hey Ronnie, want this?" she asked pulling out a plushie black cat with a 'Welcome to my dungeon' sign hanging from it's mouth. Ronnie grabbed it and hugged it. "Oh my God, YES!" She said and laughed, helping her go through the Halloween stuff. "What all do you want up this year?" She asked as she pulled out a string of black-light string lights.
"Let's see...the lights, the scarecrow and the window cling thingys...OH and I wanna put the witch with the broomstick on the roof!" Andie said, excitedly rummaging through everything. "The cobwebs too!" Ronnie snickered and held up a giant plastic pumpkin with "BOO" engraved in it. "What about this?" She asked. "We can put that on the porch, along with these." Andie replied, pulling out some smaller ones with ghosts of different sizes on them. Ronnie smiled. "Alrighty." She said and set the pumpkin to the side, and set to work putting the scarecrow together. Andie started untangling the lights, cursing along the way. Pretty soon they had everything assembled and put onto the house except the witch.
"I'll go get Lee. One of us goes up that ladder we're dead either way." she laughed as she went up the front steps two at a time. Ronnie rolled her eyes and started climbing the ladder after Andie had wandered out of sight. Gibbs was in their bedroom when Andie came in the house, skipped her way up the stairs and propelled herself through the bedroom door, grinning like an idiot. "Lover, we need help getting the witch on the roof!" she said, pouncing on him. He laughed and caught her mid-pounce. "Yes, mistress." He said hauling her over his shoulder and starting down the stairs, smacking her rump with each protest she started to utter.
"Hey-ow-put-ow! Oh forget it...OW!" she laughed and squealed, paying him back with a smack on the butt as well. Gibbs smiled as he walked out the front door. Ronnie was up on the roof fighting with the lights. "Andie! Your lights are stupid bastards!" She laughed. "Ronnie you stubborn ding-a-ling!" she yelled, still in her position over Gibbs' shoulder. "Lee, put me down so I can lecture her properly!" Chuckling softly, Gibbs set her on the ground. "WHAAAAT, I'm just trying to get the lights up while I'm up here, Gibbs can do the damn witch!" "Brodie is going to KILL me if he sees you up there! Besides, you and roofs? Not the best track record! Remember six years ago? Around Christmas time?" Andie shouted, rolling her eyes.
"There was ice on the roof, numbnuts!" Ronnie called from the roof. "Besides, as long as I don't actually get hurt, he doesn't care!" Ronnie laughed as she walked along the roof, string the lights across the gutter line. Andie smacked her forehead and wandered over to the box that contained the witch, muttering something about stubborn idiots that never listen. She pulled it out to reveal one of those plush witches that looked like it ran into a brick wall, handing it to Gibbs. Ronnie snorted, "Hey pot, don't call the kettle names!" She called down. Gibbs tried not to laugh. Andie gave him a playful whack on the chest. "But you do it all the time!" she called back, laughing softly. Sticking out her tongue, Ronnie laughed, "Yes, but I'm entitled! I'm older!"
"Oh that's funny cause most of the time you're acting your shoe size!" Andie teased. "Which in Mens is actually a twelve!" She laughed, "What's YOUR'S again?" She teased playfully. "HA in Mens mine is a thirteen thank you!" she said, sticking her tongue out as well. Ronnie rolled her eyes and retorted, "Doesn't that saying, those with big feet have big asses, apply to women?" She laughed as she clipped the lights to the gutter. "You're just jealous cause my ass is bigger!" Andie grinned, turning and shaking her booty. Ronnie quirked an eyebrow and stood up. "Oh really?" she asked. "Yep!" she chuckled, dashing off back into the garage to grab some more batting for spider webs. Ronnie waited impatiently for her to come back outside, glaring down at Gibbs who occupied himself with a scuff on his shoe, wary of going up the ladder.
Andie came back out, batting in hand. "HEY ANDIE!" Ronnie called down from the roof. "Yeah?" Andie called back, her hand in her back pocket. "MY BREASTESES ARE BIGGER SO HA!" Ronnie screamed, laughing, and in front of god and everyone, flashed Andie. Andie fell to he pavement laughing her ass off, her face going bright red as she wheezed with mirth. Gibbs raised his hand to his head, rubbing his temples with his fingers. Ronnie fell on the roof laughing, trying not to roll herself off. "I WIN!" she cried. "Only because my husband is present!" Andie managed to gasp out, laughing harder.
Finished with the lights, Ronnie climbed back down the ladder and dusted off her clothes. "Well, I better go save Abby from my little terror." She said, then got a thoughtful look on her face. "Or is it the other way around? Ah well, only one way to find out." She said and smiled. Andie grinned and hugged her, whispering in her ear. "Mah boobs got bigger since the last time you saw them girlie..." Ronnie laughed. "Mine are still bigger!" She squealed as she ran off to her house and flew through her front door, nearly taking it off the hinges.
"FAMILY I'M HOME!" She could be heard screaming as she slammed the door. Halfway down the street you could hear Brodie's reply of, "LUCY!" and then a string of squeals as he began tickling his wife. Andie chuckled as she turned back to the house her and her husband shared. "Never a dull day with Ronnie..." "Of course not." Gibbs laughed softly, taking his wife into his arms and kissing her forehead. "Shall I hang the drunken witch now?" He asked. She laughed, her eyes sparkling once again. "Yes though I'd be careful, she's had one too many tequilas so she might cop a feel!" Andie warned laughingly. Shaking his head and chuckling, Gibbs picked up the witch and climbed the ladder. "Alright, where's she going?" He asked. "On the chimney of course." she grinned, as she placed more of the batting on the porch. He nodded and silently attached the witch to the chimney. "This good?"
She looked up at it, tilting her head a little. "Looks good to me!" she called, shifting her gaze from the witch on the chimney to her husband's butt, grinning and whistling at him as he came down the ladder. Again shaking his head, he looked at the house, standing on the sidewalk after he'd reached the ground, to admire the girls work. Andie smiled and smacked him on the butt again before running across the lawn. "Catch me if you can slow poke!" she called over her shoulder. At those words Gibbs hauled ass after his wife. "Slow poke?" He called. She just barely kept ahead of him as she bolted around the house into the back yard. "SLOW POKE!" she teased, laughing. He saw what she was doing and ran towards the other side of the house. She didn't even notice until she ran right into him, laughing and trying to get away as he held her tightly and laughed.
"Slow poke?" He asked. "Yes. You may be able to out wit me, but you cannot out run me!" she giggled. He rolled his eyes and laughed. "Thanks, love, make an old man out of your poor old husband." He said. She snorted and squirmed. "Oh you are not old..." she laughed. He tickled her and laughed as she squealed and giggled. "Oh! I have a surprise for you!" she said, squirming some more. He gave her an 'uh oh' look and let her go. "Oh, really?" he asked suspiciously. "Yes really!" she said, dashing to the garage and running back with the big white box. "Here you go!" she said, holding it out to him. He took it and looked at the box. "If Abby sent me more of those dead roses, I'm gonna smack her with the box." He chuckled at his threat. "Hey! This is MY surprise thank you!" she chuckled, not even bothering to act offended.
He laughed and opened the box. Looking at her quizzically, he pulled out the gun. "Uh, darling, I already have a rifle..." He said. She shook her head and laughed. "It's an Airsoft rifle. Ronnie and I got into it when she started dating Brodie." she explained, pulling the tub of BBs out of the box. "We used to get into Airsoft wars all the time, in fact we got into one the day before her wedding!" Gibbs chuckled. "Alright, how does this thing work?" He asked She laughed and pulled him toward the garage. "I'll show you. I have some targets that Ronnie and I made in the garage." she said, lightly tugging on his arm. When they got to the garage, she pulled out one of the targets, which happened to have a picture of her mother on it, and set it up, filled the clip to the rifle, took aim and pulled the trigger, hitting the target dead center. "It's very easy." she said. He laughed softly and watched.
She continued to practice, hitting the target close to the center every time. It was obvious she had done it many times. "Now I'm better with stationary targets when it comes to accuracy, but it's much more fun to have an all out war with friends." she grinned. He nodded. "Most things are more fun with friends." He said, took the rifle and fired, hitting the target dead center in the middle of her mother's face on the target. She grinned. "I knew you'd catch on quick." she chuckled softly. "It helps that you have good motivation!" she added gesturing at the target that was screen printed with her mother's picture. "That's how I got so good." Chuckling, Gibbs kissed her softly, setting the rifle on the table. "Thank you, Andie, its a wonderful gift." She grinned and tapped the butt of the rifle. "I think there's something you missed oh observant one..." she teased.
He laughed. "No, I saw it, I just didn't say anything. Like I said, its a wonderful gift from a wonderful wife." She smiled and kissed him. "I'm glad you like it, babe." she said, poking him on the nose. Kissing her back, he gave her a hug, holding her to him. "So, did you have fun today?" He asked. "Oodles." she laughed, resting her head on his chest. Gibbs smiled and ran his hand through her hair softly. "Good." He said. Andie sighed happily, nuzzling his neck softly. Gibbs kissed her head and held her at arms length. "I have to get back to the basement, I still have some work to do before the day is over." He said gruffly, and left the garage. Andie stood there stunned, watching him walk back to the house. "What the hell?" she muttered.
