Happy Place
Tony and McGee turned their heads on their pillows and glanced at each other apprehensively.
"What is he doing?" McGee whispered. He looked over at Gibbs fearfully, who lay with a silly, happy smile, humming to himself a silly, happy tune.
"Pain meds, Probie. He's in his happy place right now." Tony cringed as Gibbs hit a flat note. McGee blinked. "I didn't know that Gibbs HAD a happy place."
Tony sighed carefully. "Normally, he doesn't. But under the circumstances… it's best to just let him be. He'll be our cranky boss again soon enough."
"Ah," McGee nodded, thoughtfully. "And then, we need never speak of this again?" Tony nodded. "Not even under threat of torturous death."
They sighed, and Tony returned to his hand-held video game, as McGee turned his attention back to his book.
