"Any reason you're sitting on my desk?"

"Gibbs! You're finally here! I've got something to show you!"

"Yeah?"

"Look! New phone! Ain't it a beaut?"

"Gonna start taking pictures again?"

"Um, probably. Definitely. But that's not why my butt's on your desk. I've got something even better!"

"I'm all ears, Abs."

"You know those cold cases you brought in last night? The ones you thought whose evidence was compromised? Well, you were right."

"Tell me something I don't know, Abby."

"Why, aren't you so sure of yourself today. I'm not saying that you're not always right, Gibbs, 'cause you usually are. You just don't usually boast as much. But then again, not to say you're not expressive, because you're very expressive. At least when you're angry. But sometimes, you can be very sweet and touching…Okay. Something you don't know--um…"

"Schooch. You're sitting on a folder."

"Ow, Gibbs! No need to push. It's still sensitive from the last time it came in contact with your wrath."

"Anything more to tell me?"

"Nothing that relates to the case…"

"Though I sense you have something else to say."

"Uh, yeah. But it's, uh, kinda more personal."

"Do we need a room?"

"Oh, as much as I'd love to be in a room with you, Gibbs--alone, that won't be necessary. I have something for you."

"You do?"

"Open it, open it!"

"It looks like yours. Why?"

"I thought it'd be cute--matching phones! Since yours was so old, I thought, you know, maybe you'd want a new one. You like?"

"Abs, you know how I treat my phones. It's just going to get all banged up. You didn't have to--"

"But I wanted to, Gibbs! I got insurance for it. If you break it, you'll get another one for free. Well, not really free, since I still have to pay for the insurance, but it's worth it and--"

"Thanks, Abby. I appreciate it."

"Appreciate it? You can do better than that. Way better."

"Come on. What do you want from me? A kiss?"

"Like there's anything else on this earth that's better!"

"Fine. Happy?"

"Not there, Gibbs. Here, on the lips."
