Chapter 2
Gibbs was sitting in the headmaster's office. "I trust you have experience working with children" Headmaster Vance said looking Gibbs up and down.
"Would the agency send me if I didn't" Gibbs said offering a weak smile to the man opposite him.
"I guess not" Vance said pushing his chair back and standing up. "Ready to meet you class" Vance asked giving him a genuine smile.
"As ready as I'll ever be" Gibbs said hoping up from his seat and gave Vance a cheesy grin.
Gibbs heard a bell ring as he walked down the corridor with Vance. He then heard screaming and loads of running. Before he knew it he was in a sea of children all screaming and chatting. Then a bell rang again and they disappeared into class rooms.
"That's your classroom there, the staff room is down the hall there will be a bell to signal you for lunch and if you need anything else you can ask other teachers" Vance said pointing to a class room then down the hall to the staff room.
Vance patted him on the back then walked away leaving Gibbs alone in the empty corridor.
He rubbed his hand over his face. When he moved he opened his eyes he saw a women walking his way.
She had shoulder length red-hair and legs that seemed to go on forever. As she came closer he got a better look at her face. She was beautiful and had mesmerising green eyes.
Her sweet voice brought him out of his thoughts "Hi". Gibbs found him-self speechless. The redhead found this very sweet.
She was very taken with his eyes as they were the bluest she had ever see, she also found him very handsome, with his chiselled features and salt and pepper hair that just made him even more attractive.
"Hi" He finally said after a moment his voice still very husky.
"I'm Jenny Shepard" she said offering her hand which he took and shook.
"Jethro Gibbs" He said thinking at how her name suited her.
"I haven't seen you here before are you new" Jenny asked smiling. Gibbs thought at how he would like to make her smile.
"Yeah just started today, I'm the new kindergarten teacher" Gibbs said returning a smile.
"Really, well I'm just across the hall if you need me" Jenny said before entering the class room opposite his.
He watched her walk away before turning to his own class room. He took a deep breath before entering the room.
He opened the room and saw loads of kids running around screaming.
There were three girls on top of some tables dancing and singing but what they didn't notice was the brown haired hazel eyed boy walking behind them trying to look up their skirts also there was a small sandy coloured hair boy sitting in the corner reading a book just watching as an Israeli girl stood on top of a boy with one of her fists clenched ready to punch him.
Gibbs raced over and pulled the girl off of the boy and by the look on the boy's face he was very great full. Once he put the girl down he tried to get the kid's attention.
"Hey everyone, stop what you're doing" he yelled. Some Kids looked at him but then just carried on what they were doing. Gibbs tried again but it didn't work so instead he whistled which seemed to get everyone's attention.
"Come sit in a circle" Gibbs said pointing to the floor in front of him. All the kids looked at each other, then shrugged their shoulders and came over and sat in some sort of shape that kind of resembled a circle.
"Ok, Hi, I'm Mr Gibbs your new teacher why don't we go around the circle and you can tell me your name. The kids nodded eagerly.
By the end of the circle Gibbs had learned that one of the girls who had been standing on the table was called Abby; she wore dark cloths and a big red skirt with skulls on it and she also wore her jet black hair up in tow pigtails. The boy who had been trying to look up her skirt was called Tony and he seemed to be a trouble maker. The girl he had hat to pull off the boy was called Ziva; she wore cargo pants and tank top also her hair was back in a bunch showing her widows peek and finally the boy who had been reading the book in the corner was called Tim. Of course there were many other kids in the class but those four stuck out to him.
Once getting to know their names he let them go and play. He sat behind a desk watching as they played. Abby sat at a table and started drawing pictures and with her sat a blond girl he had found out was called Paula.
Gibbs watched as Ziva approached that boy she had been on top of earlier. Gibbs saw her fist clench; so he got up and stopped her before she got close to him. "Ziva why were you going to punch Shmeul earlier" Gibbs said moving away from Shmeul Rubenstein and his friends.
"He told me he liked me" Ziva said bluntly and shrugging her shoulders.
Gibbs nodded then knelt down so he was at her height "You shouldn't use violence, its wrong, use words instead" Gibbs said and Ziva looked a little bit confused.
"What if I use violent words is that wrong" Ziva asked innocently
Gibbs scrubbed his face with his hand "The next time someone annoys you just explain to them calmly that what they said you didn't like ok" Gibbs said giving her a smile. Ziva nodded.
"Good girl, now go play" Gibbs said before Ziva ran off to join the others.
Gibbs walked past Abby who was still drawing and wondered what it was she had drawn.
"Hey Abby what had you drawn" Gibbs asked pointing to the stick person and a fuzzy blob done in black crayon.
"Well that's me" The little girl said pointing to the stick person "And that's my dog bubba" she said pointing to the black blob.
"That's great Abby, make sure you take it home with you so your parents can put it on the fridge" Gibbs said smiling at her then before he had a chance to get away Abby attacked his legs in a hug.
Gibbs looked down at the girl. Abby giggled and smiled before letting go and running off to go and play with Tony who was setting up and obstacle course made out of toys.
Gibbs went back to his seat and watched as all the kids had a go at Tony's course, all but one.
Tim was still sitting in the corner doing nothing just minding his own business. Gibbs wondered why he wasn't joining in.
Gibbs walked over to the boy and crouched in front of him "Hey Tim, do you want to have a go at the obstacle course?" Gibbs asked in a calm voice and he just shook his head no in return.
Gibbs nodded "Do you want to read a book?" Tim shook his head again Gibbs decided to let the kid be. He decided to keep an eye on Tim and find out why he's so quiet.
Before Gibbs knew it the bell ran signalling for lunch. All the kids ran to the door and as soon as Gibbs opened it they ran out, screaming and chatting.
Gibbs smiled to himself as he watched them go down the corridor.
Once all the kid were gone he made his way to the staff room. It was just down the hall like Vance had said. It was nothing spectacular just a boring square room with white walls and windows that looked out onto the playground. There were tables and chairs dotted around the room. There was also a cabinets and sink, microwave and to his delight a coffee machine.
He noticed that fresh coffee had just been made so he got a mug and poured himself some.
He sat down at an empty table and soon he looked up from his coffee to see Jenny walking in. She smiled at him then went and poured herself some coffee. He was surprised to see she didn't add anything to it before she took a sip.
"Can I sit with you" she asked and Gibbs nodded. Jenny smiled before sitting opposite him.
"You drink you coffee black" Gibbs said more as a statement that a question.
Jenny nodded taking a sip "Why, how do you have your coffee" she asked.
"Black" Gibbs said taking a sip of his. They spent the rest of the lunch time talking and getting to know each other more.
"So what have you taught the kids today" Jenny asked
He was just about to answer her question when his phone went off. "Sorry I've got to take this" He said before getting up and moving to the corridor where it was more privet.
Jenny nodded and smiled when he left she put her head in her hands He's married she thought she had just been flirting with a married man, but why did he flirt back and why didn't he mention he had a wife?
"Gibbs" he answered
"Hey Gibbs how's it going" Kate asked "Any lead on the mother and son"
"It's going fine and no I haven't got a lead you?"
"Only that Kort was last seen at a petrol station on the edge of D.C" Kate said.
"Ok, I have to go lunch is almost over" Gibbs said sighing in frustration.
"What are you teaching those kids anyway?" Kate asked.
"Nothing yet" Gibbs said hearing the bell and putting the phone down.
This afternoon he would have to teach the Kids something. But what?
TBC…
So what did you think? Please review and tell me.
P.S: How old are Kids in Kindergarten? As I'm not American I don't know so if someone could tell me that would be great.
Is it the equivalent to Nursery that we have in the UK?
