Disclaimer: I don't own NCIS I just own the character Sophia and my brain of course I hope... I mean I think. Anyway here's the 5th chapter.
"Agent Gibbs where is the rest of your team?"
"What are you talking about Sophia?" I walked towards him and now was standing in front of him across the table.
"Oh you know very well what I am talking about. Try the fact that you know that when you asked me to meet for coffee you knew that I would think that your whole team would be there not just you but no you didn't care and so you just came here by yourself and you knew what the outcome would be. I thought that I would actually get some answers as to what Aunt Jen was like through four different people not some guy who likes to drive people insane that happens to know Aunt Jen," I sat down in the seat in front of me and crossed my arms and just stared at him with a glare.
"Okay Sophia one; you're right and two; I am not insane but I did know your Aunt Jen very well..." I cut him off.
"Agent Gibbs were you at any point involved in romantic relationship with Aunt Jen?"
"I am going to kill DiNozzo," was his response.
"No this is my idea asking this question not DiNozzo's though why would you think... Never mind."
"Funny."
"I think I'll go get some coffee now," he had put something on the table once I turned my head back from looking at the counter. I realized he had already gotten me coffee.
"Agent Gibbs I am sort of picky about my coffee just for warning."
"Really well I put a bunch of coffee creamer in it and three sweeteners,"
"That is exactly how I drink it how could you of known?"
"Because your Aunt Jen drank it the same way."
"Oh wow you really cared about her didn't you?"
"I finally admit but yeah I cared a great deal about your Aunt Jen."
"Something in her death changed you. You became more soft well I mean you became sort of well different," I took a sip of my coffee and just looked at him waiting for a response.
"You are far too a smart girl to hanging around DiNozzo. His IQ might increase."
"Now Agent Gibbs don't change the subject even though that is very true," we shared a quick laugh and then his face grew sort of serious again.
He spoke, "alright, alright. Okay so that might be true. Sophia I would like you to read something," he reached in is coat pocket on the chair and pulled out a piece of paper and slid it across the table.
I opened and read it:
Dear Jethro,
If you are reading this it is because one of two reasons. One I am dead or two you are trying rand-sack my personal things that you have never even seen and I am alive which I am wondering what are you doing in my house without me knowing I should be keeping a better eye on you. Also after you read the rest of this letter I will probably kill you. (Sorry bad pun). Anyway unfortunately if the reason you are reading this because your going through my things because I am dead I need to tell you some things that have been hidden in my heart for some time.
To put a simple way I am truly, completely, and eternally in love with you. I always have been and I always will be. Okay so I know that just sounded really really dorky but it is true so very true. And I will haunt DiNozzo if he is trying to read this without you looking. Okay back to the real matter, I never wanted to tell you because I thought our jobs would be effected if we went into a relationship and Tony would go wild and become way to full of himself so yeah I was thinking of DiNozzo's sanity too but not all that much really just something in the back my mind. Anyway so I just wanted to say that I felt terrible for leaving you those many years ago but I was thinking that if we came back and we had actually like settled down and then if we ever had kids we would be putting our kids into a " our kids should worry about the fact that our jobs are dangerous and one day someone might call and say that one or both of us is dead." So yeah that would be why I left that is the answer that I have been keeping from you since I came back as Director.
That is another reason I didn't want controversy to come up and then attract more attention. So yeah I didn't do it for my selfish reasons like everyone who knew about our previous relationship was led to believe. I just wanted no consequences to become of our relationship since we already had complications of us living such a dangerous life and worked in a risky field.
Every moment we spent together was electric, magical, and special. I just needed to get that off my chest even if I was dead or not. If I am dead I will always be with you Jethro no matter what. I am starting to wonder if you kept that certain item of importance after all these years. Maybe but I don't think you could keep up with it for that long but I hope. There is a little reminder in the envelope just to remind you. Sorry that it ended this way. Goodbye Jethro.
I love you,
Jenny
As I read the last of it I could tears forming in my eyes. I finally said something, "Gibbs. What. What I never have heard anything so beautiful and romantic before. Umm what did she mean by you keeping a certain item of importance after all these years?"
"You don't want to know."
"Yes I do."
"No you don't; trust me."
"Yes I do; trust me."
"Fine."
"Really?"
"Yes. Trust me we would have gone at this for the next thirty minutes without either of us breaking."
"Let me guess Aunt Jen did what we were just doing with you all the time."
"You got it," he again reached for something in his coat pocket. It looked to be a picture. He slid that across the table and I picked it up.
It was a sort of old picture semi-faded. It was a picture of Aunt Jen and Agent Gibbs. And Aunt Jen had an engagement on and they were standing in front of a fountain in Paris from what I recognised from remembering a trip me and my dad took on my thirteenth birthday.
"You and Aunt Jen were..
"Yeah we were. Until she left one day with nothing but a Dear John type letter. I still loved her after that even though it seemed like we hated each other around the office."
"Awe that is soo sad I wish that you guys would've gotten a second chance."
"Probably never would've happened we were both too stubborn to admit our feelings until it was too late."
"Don't say that. It'll just bring up more painful memories for you. I know that even you probably won't cry but you'll probably get very angry. I think I'd better go thanks for the coffee Agent Gibbs," I got up and threw away the coffee cup right before I walked out of the door. I glanced back and I could tell that Gibbs was thinking about Aunt Jen because of his facial expression. He didn't see that I saw but I did.
