Friendship is a union of spirits, a marriage of hearts and the bond thereof virtue. – William Penn
Gibbs smiled as he stood in the doorway to Abby's lab.
It had been a long tiring day – they had caught a triple homicide the previous evening, and everyone had been working flat out since then. McGee had been dispatched to Abby's lab as the computer evidence began to mount up. Now an arrest had been made, Gibbs had decided to check up on his lab rats.
Abby and McGee were fast asleep on their respective keyboards, next to each other. They looked more carefree and innocent than they had in the last 24 hours. Their breathing was slow, steady and soft; they were breathing as one. The tension had drained from their bodies, leaving them relaxed.
Gibbs sighed softly. He really didn't want to have to wake these two up. They were so close to each other, each half of a whole. They were connected on a level so few people were.
Sipping his coffee, he decided to let them rest a little longer. There really was nothing to be gained from waking them.
