Here's a little something about Jimmy and Gibbs. I am fascinated with Gibbs so I just had to write this. Let me know what you think.
Who is This Man?
by pimmyjalmergrl
Paperwork, the worst part of this job. The danger isn't bad, exciting even, but paperwork keeps me here late at night when danger says "go home."
The elevator dings. I don't turn to see who walks out, it probably has nothing to do with me anyways. I just want to finish this damned report and get home to my boat.
"Special agent Gibbs?" I look up, it's Jimmy Palmer, Ducky's assistant.
"Yes Palmer?"
"I have Dr. Mallards report." Jimmy's an awkward guy. It strikes me I don't know much about him. He's in med-school I know, but where does he go? When does he graduate? Where did he grow up? Are his parents divorced? Dead? Did they die during the time I've known him? Hell, what's his favorite color?"
"Agent Gibbs?"
"Huh? Oh yeah, thanks Jimmy." I said as if woken from a trance, accepting the folder he offered me. What if something were to happen to Jimmy? He is one of mine right? And I protect mine. Too many times I've let my family slip through my fingers. The image of Kate's bullet pierced skull was all too fresh in my mind. Would I protect Jimmy? This man I barely knew?
Jimmy smiled, turned and headed for the elevator. I almost called out for him to stop and come talk to me, but I hesitated until it was to late. Who is this man? I asked myself. Who is this man?
What do you think?
Still more to come.
