Hey guys, extremely sorry for not posting this chapter sooner. Life does get in the way, especially when you are dealing with depression like I am and working and not to mention a horrible older brother who just gets up my skin all the time argh. Also thank you to my best bud Dedee

Anyway I am once again a little unsure of this chapter, no correction I'm unsure of writing stories period. So please read and review and all hints, opinions, ideas are as always accepted. So without anymore from me here is chapter four

Chapter Four

Gibbs POV

When I return back from getting coffee I decide to go and see Abby and see if she has any ideas on what I can do to help Kate, since I completely pissed her off and she is more than likely going to be waiting to shoot me for that. I don't know this is something that I have never really dealt with and that is what makes it difficult. In the marines mental illnesses were always hush hush, never spoken about or anything. And being a former marine myself…..

As soon as I walk into Abby's lab, I hear what she call music honestly it's just something that gives me a head ach which is why I usually either turn it off or yell at Abby to turn it off. Because I wanted to have a proper serious conversation with her about Kate, I turned the music off. As soon as the music off, Abby turns around and gives me what one would call "why did you do that, I was listening to that" look. To which I just smirked at before taking a sip of my coffee.

"Abby, did you know about Kate being depressed? And do you know her reasons behind quitting NCIS?" I asked some what distraught.

"Gibbs of course I knew…her and I like tell each other everything, but and there is a pretty huge but. She promised me not to tell anyone especially you. Because you are the one she thinks would let down the most as she didn't live up to your expectations as an agent, that's what she kept on telling me. Like she was trying to convince herself and also doing the right thing because of rule 12. Now as for the depression, I don't really know much about that or what she is going through. Because she has closed herself off to me and everyone." said Abby while she was running some tests for other teams.

"Abbs when you said that she felt like she was living up to my expectations as an agent, what do you mean and where in the world did she get that idea?"

"I dunno Gibbs, but you are…well not the easiest of people to work for"

With that being said I stalked out of the lab and back to the bullpen.

As soon as I arrived at the bullpen I quickly scanned the area to see if Kate was there, much to my disappointment she wasn't there.

"DiNozzo, where the hell is Kate?" I barked.

"She gathered her stuff and left without a word. Ah what's going on boss?" asked a now concerned Tony.

Instead of answering I quickly left the bullpen and headed towards my car, hoping that if Kate is home that she will let me in.

Kate's apartment

(Still Gibbs's POV)

As soon as I arrived at Kate's apartment door, I knock on her door hoping that as soon as she realizes that it's me and she won't slam the door into my face, and yes I have had that happen to me before many of times. I quickly bring myself out of the hopes and thoughts as I hear someone walking towards the door.

"Gibbs, what are you doing here?" The surprise is evident in here voice.

"I've come to see if you okay…you kinda left the office pretty quickly and I just wanted to see if you wanted someone to talk to about what's going on" I stumbled.

"Gibbs, why would I want to talk to you about what's going on. I've resigning incase you have forgotten that small but important fact"

And with that being said Kate slammed the door in my face and here I stood looking shocked and unsure what to do next. But whatever it is, I'm going to have to do something before Kate's two weeks are up.

TBC….
