5) Bête Noir
Gibbs got home at 2300 hours. Kate wasn't on the couch, so he went upstairs quietly. In the spare room, he watched Kate sleep peacefully. Gibbs then left, went to his room, showered, changed and went to bed. At 0100 a shriek was heard from the hallway and Jethro was up with his gun. He slowly went into Kate's room and lowered it when he saw Kate sitting on the bed crying. "Kate?" he asked, worried.
She looked at him. "Oh Gibbs!" she wailed, which he took for a sign to come in.
"What's wrong? Are you hurt?" he sat down beside her.
She bowed her head, sniffing. "No, don't worry about me. I... I just had a bad dream." She wiped her nose on the sleave of her flannelette pyjamas.
He bowed his head to try and look her in the eyes, but then got his hand and softly lifted it up by her chin after she refused to look at him straight. "Sleep, if it was just a bad dream." He got up to leave.
"But I can't. I can't sleep now. I'll just go down stairs and clean until I fall asleep again." She sighed getting up and putting her slippers on.
"No." Gibbs replied, flicking his head for her to follow him down the hall.
This wasn't what Kate had expected. At all. Like, never in her dreams. Gibbs told her to follow, so she did... Into his bedroom! Her tearstained face was surprised as he said, "Well, sleep. We're all adults here... Aren't we?" he got in on his side, pulled the covers over him. "I'll keep to my side. I'm not that stupid. Night." And he rolled over to face the wall. Kate stood there, observing Gibbs until his light snores began to envelope the room.
"Kate... You are crazy." She whispered to herself. She then slid into the cool bed. Within seconds she fell asleep, unworried whose bed she was in.
