Sorry it's been so long since I last updated…but I have written a short story to tell you why.

How my computer came to work again, written by: Alliegh Taylor

Okay, so…yeah, my computer was being a real bum the other day and wouldn't turn on at all, or save anything, so I decided to bring it to Future Shop so they could fix it. They told me they couldn't, because they didn't know what was wrong. So I got into a little bit of an argument with the dude there, and then I left to go meet my mom in the car. She doesn't let me drive, because the last car they had, I smashed the side view mirror off of it while backing out of the garage. But anyways, I'll tell you that story another time. Okay, so we brought it to another dude's place (I'm not really sure what its called) and he fixed it in two hours. I had a virus on my computer. But now it's working nicely, and I intend to keep it that way by using an anti-virus system. Now I can update more often…and that's my story! Okay, now on with the real story that you started reading before this…


Gibbs opened the door to the storage closet. He couldn't see anything, but he could hear people…at least two of them. He flicked the light on…and his eyes went wide.

"Oh my goodness!" Kate said, putting a hand to her mouth to prevent herself from laughing. Gibbs was anything but pleased. Tony had lured his new agent into making out with him while they were trapped in a storage closet. But not only was he mad at Tony, he was furious with McGee. McGee was standing by the wall, doubled-over laughing. Gibbs turned to him, his blue eyes cold as ice. "You…you…didn't do this alone." He said. McGee's laughter ceased immediately, and a look of pure terror replaced his smile. "I…I didn't know it would end like this…um, I don't know what to say." He said nervously. Alliegh was now standing in the hall, adjusting her shirt, and putting her hair back up into a ponytail. "Um…I'll uh, see you guys…in the bullpen!" She exclaimed cheerily, and headed towards the lift. "Not so fast, there, Alliegh. Tell me how this happened." Gibbs said. Alliegh stopped cold in her tracks, her back facing them. She bit her lip nervously, wondering if she should make a run for it or just go and tell them what happened. She turned around. "Uh, I was, uh, doing paperwork, and Tim asked me if I could help him get something out of the storage closet. I agreed, and he took me here, and I noticed that Tony was standing up against the wall. Tim shoved Tony into the closet, and I went in to help him up off of the floor. Tim closed the door and locked it. That's how it went…I'm really sorry, boss, and I promise that nothing like this will ever happen again, I swear, I swear, I swear." She said. Gibbs smiled at her, and she felt a little more at ease. "I'm not mad at you, dear, I'm mad at McGee for doing what he did. You don't have to be so scared of me." He said softly. Alliegh nodded her head. She was shaking like crazy. She thought she would be fired. He turned back to McGee, his gaze like fire again. "Boss, Abby dared me to do it." McGee said. Gibbs rolled his eyes. "Why do I feel like a first grade teacher?" He asked himself. Kate stepped in. "Okay, well, that doesn't mean that you actually have to do it. Just because someone dares you…" Kate said. Gibbs cut her off. "McGee, you're going to do Alliegh's paperwork, and you're going to do mine. That's your punishment. Any arguments will mean that you're doing both Kate's and Tony's." He said, and walked away with him hand on a very shaky Alliegh's shoulder. The four agents; Tony, Kate, Gibbs, and Alliegh got into the lift, leaving McGee behind. Tony tapped Alliegh on the shoulder. "My place. Six thirty." He whispered. Alliegh turned around to whisper in his ear. "I'm gonna need to take a rain check. I don't think we're going to be allowed to date. Plus, you're already going out with a girl named Sandy." She whispered back. Her and Kate smiled at each other. Gibbs chuckled. "This should be an interesting week…" He thought to himself. The lift opened, and the four agents raced to their desks, except Alliegh, who stayed in the lift. She was going to visit Abby.

Loud rock music boomed thorough Abby's lab as Alliegh entered thorough the lift. "Ah…Jesus." Alliegh muttered to herself. Her head was pounding enough already. Abby turned around and spotted Alliegh standing there impatiently. She smiled, and turned the music off. "Hey, Alls! What's up?" She asked. Alliegh sighed. "Why did you dare McGee to lock Tony and I in the storage closet? You knew something would happen, didn't you?" She said. Abby smiled. "So something happened?" She asked enthusiastically. Alliegh looked down at the floor. "Yes, something happened…but he's dating someone already! As much as I like him…I know I can't! Besides, Gibbs is less of a skirt-chaser…plus, I think Gibbs could use someone. Maybe I'll dare myself to lock him and you in a storage closet." Alliegh said. Abby laughed. "That would be crazy! Plus…I don't think he would like me much…I sleep in a coffin." She said, typing something on her computer. Alliegh laughed. "You sleep in a coffin?" She said. Abby smirked. "Sure do. Things just keep getting weirder for you around here everyday, don't they?" She said. Alliegh nodded. "Well, I just wanted to come down and let you know that there's no hard feelings about what you put Tim up to." She said. Abby smiled and they hugged. "Awe…most people would hold a grudge forever!" She said. Alliegh grinned, standing in the lift. "I don't hold a grudge…I just get even. Watch your back, sweetie!" She said. Abby smiled. "Oh, I'll watch my back…" She said, turning back to her computer again.

"So, what do you think Alliegh's habits are? There's a blank here for her to fill in her habits." McGee asked Kate. Kate thought for a minute. "She likes to take pictures of stuff- uh, photography, um…she likes to cook…and read." She said. Gibbs walked through the bullpen, carrying a coffee. "Woodworking." He said. Both McGee and Kate looked at him. "How would you know that?" McGee asked. Gibbs smirked. "She smells like sawdust." He said. Kate smiled. "That's sweet Gibbs." She said. He looked at her quizzically. "Sweet?" He asked. Kate just shook her head. He really didn't know much about relationships, or anything like that. Tony came tearing through the lift, carrying lunch for everyone. Alliegh came up through the stairs. "My god, the lift is slow!" She exclaimed. It then came to her: she could get Abby back for what she did…


A/N: More to come soon- REALLY soon, now that my computer's working again. Ideas needed for next chapter:-D
