Paraguay's truth

Chapter 60

Gibbs and the rest of the team were anxious to get to Somalia, Paraguay. Even though he tried to sleep...He did close his eyes remembering an evening he was having with meeting Loreile for their second date. She was gone for two weeks for a special conference in California for the Evergreen safehouse.

Meanwhile Gibbs had been busy working on the different murders of the marines and Naval officers. Though every night for those two weeks he was totally exhausted after working on his boat in the basement, along with drinking heavy with the bourbon.

As if he was torturing himself ever since coming back from Paraguay with McGee during those two months. He was waking up early with a hangover when his cell phone had gone off. He just couldn't believe it that it was Lt. Loreile Baskins calling him from San Francisco, California. "Gibbs how are you, Loreile at 5.30 A.M. in the morning?"

"Actually it's earlier here Jethro here in California. I just got finish with the conference and will be heading back today. Are you going to be available this evening with me cooking a meal of steak and potatoes?"

"I will be now Lt. Baskins. I am looking forward to your cooking anytime."

" By the way did you ever finish that boat of yours in the basement?" She asked in a coy voice.

"Nope! And I worked on it most of the night along with a bottle of bourbon. Thank god it's Saturday I hope and I don't have to work?" He stated with a smirk on his face even though she's not able to see it.

It was at this point that Gibbs woke with the transport plane having some tuberance on the way to Paraguay...

"I will be there around six o'clock Jethro." She said to him over the phone. Afterwards he went to work at NCIS to have a quiet day. Even though his team was able to sense there was something going on with their boss. He was extremely quiet as he had left work early for a rare occurrences. He had gone home to shower and shave for his evening with Loreile flying in from California. She had arrived home with some jetlag around noon time on flight American Airlines. She walked into her apartment dropping her things. She needed to shower and dress quickly with going shopping for the dinner at Gibbs house. Afterwards taking mostly two hours at best for everything. She was able to get herself a catnap before heading for the house feeling refreshed. She laid on top of her queen size bed without bothering to change a thing with her clothes or make up. She was going to place her long curly locks into a braid before leaving. Looking at the time on the clock wall of the bedroom. She needed to hurry with her hair and other essentials. Moving over to the fridge drinking a small bottle of diet Pepsi to be thirsty. She was able to move the items for dinner into a special silver container so that the items don't spoil. She moved out of her apartment locking the door to head for the underground parking lot of the complex. Afterwards she was on her way over to his house in Alexandria.
