Abby sat on Gibbs's couch. She was waiting for the pizza she had ordered. She knew she wasn't that hungry. 'How could I be,' she thought, 'my baby has been kidnapped and it is my fault. But still she need waited. Soon the pizza was there and she paid for it, walked back to the living room, and set it on the table as she sat on the couch. Soon she fell asleep. Not even touching the food.
Back at the office Gibbs made a few calls and listen to McGee talk about his daughter. Telling how they got away with it. Witch as Gibb's biggest question.
"well that leave of absence that Abs took for the trip to Italy, it never really happened. She just camped out at my house. I felt bad about the lie but well we were both scared of what you would have thought."
"but lying to me, you thought, was better?" Gibbs asked
"Well not so much better, or easier. We just weren't ready to admit it to you. Abby and you have been so close. Your like a second father to her. Can you completely blame her for being scared? Or me for that matter?" McGee could have shot himself right there for trying to make a joke. After all his baby wasn't safe.
Gibbs sat silently looking at McGee. He could understand. Hell he was scared to tell his wife's parents that they were going to be parents, and they didn't carry guns. Just then as though a bad dream had happened, Tony came back to the bull pin.
"uh boss. you ain't going to like this." Tony, who had normally took every chance to pick on McGee for anything, refused to look at him. After all Abby was family to everyone. A little sister to Tony, himself. And seeing her in pain was horrible. But the secret that was kept form them was even worse. A secret in which probie helped keep.
"What is it Denozio!" Gibbs said noticing the look of confusion anger and hate in Tony's eyes. Part of that was to McGee, but not all of it. And Gibbs had a feeling it had something to do with what was in Tony's hand
