Gibbs walked into the squad room, it was already afternoon, he was just getting back from lunch. He sat down and looked puzzled around the room.

"Ziva," said Gibbs after he received several strange looks from all three members of his team, "Would you mind babysitting Kalila tonight?"

"No," said Ziva, "What time?"

"Bout seven," replied Gibbs, "I wanna take Abbs out to dinner tonight."

"Ok," said Ziva and Tony gave them a disgruntled look.

"Hey," He said, "I'm her uncle, why can't I watch her tonight?"

Gibbs glared at him, and then raised his eyebrows.

"Because, she hasn't quiet recovered since the last time you watched her," said Gibbs, "Though she does get the cast off next week."

"Oh, c'mon," said Tony, "McGee was there to."

"Which is why I asked Ziva," said Gibbs irritated.

Abby was almost done getting ready for their dinner date when Ziva rang the door bell.

"That's Ziva," Abby called down the stairs, "Gibbs can you get that?"

Gibbs was sitting on the couch downstairs, all ready to go. Gibbs was wearing a blue dress shirt and kakis. He was watching Kalila play with her toys on the floor in front of him. She had already had her bath and was in her Pajamas, but she wasn't due for bed for another hour.

"Yup," said Gibbs, and got up and went to the door, "You know the door's always unlocked while we're home and awake."

"Yes, but I have learned the American custom is to ring the door bell and wait for someone to let you in," said Ziva as Gibbs stepped aside and let her in, "DiNozzo."

Tony had been hiding in a nearby tree and had darted to the doorstep.

"Aw, c'mon boss," said Tony, "Let me just stay until she goes to bed."

"Ziva," Gibbs rounded on her.

"Trust me, I will make sure he leaves right after she goes to bed," said Ziva.

"Ok," said Gibbs, and he walked back down the hall to the stairs, "Abbs!"

"I'm coming, I'm coming," said Abby as she came down the stairs in a nice black dress, and went right into his arms.

"Mmm," he said, he gave her a quick kiss, "How come I've never seen this dress before?"

Abby smirked and shrugged, they walked back into the family room and Tony was playing dolls with Kalila on the floor. Ziva was on the other side of Kalila, supervising them.

"Well we're off," said Gibbs as they walked across the room and each gave Kalila a kiss good bye on the head.

"Bye, Kals," said Abby, "We'll be back late so we'll see you in the morning, ok?"

"Ok," said Kalila and she quickly got back to her dolls, Gibbs and Abby left while she was still preoccupied.

As soon as they were gone Tony stood up and picked Kalila up, and rotated her to his back. She giggled as he then got down on all fours. She giggled as he started crawling around, so it was like she was riding a pony.

Gibbs drove, on hand on the wheel, the other holding onto Abby's hand tightly. Dinner went well, Gibbs had hardly let go of her hand the whole time. They flirted, she giggled, he smiled. When they were done, they got in the car to go home. Once they hit the high way, tears started falling from Abby's eyes.

"What's wrong?" asked Gibbs as he pulled over to the side, and parked.

Gibbs put his arm around her, and pulled her close, but she resisted. He immediately backed off, he was surprised.

"Abbs…" said Gibbs questioningly.

"Keep to your side," said Abby through the tears that were now rapidly streaming down her cheeks.

"Abby, what's wrong?" said Gibbs, his voice was soft and concerned.

"What the hell is wrong with you?" said Abby tears starting to slow down, this totally confused Gibbs even more than he already was.

"Care to elaborate?" said Gibbs, his mind whirling, "What'd I do?"

"Its what you didn't do, Gibbs," said Abby, "Just drive home, ok?"

"Ok," said Gibbs, "Though I must remind you I'm better at solving murders than I am whats wrong."

"It's just…you propose to every other girl on the planet…" the tears started to fall once more, "Why not me?"

Gibbs took a deep breath.
