When they reached work the next day Abby was greeted with smiles and hugs. Due to her refusing to let anyone into her lab every DC case had been given extra time to investigate and solve the varying crimes. It also meant a backlog of work for her.
Tony was, as ever, joking when they walked across the bullpen. This time he had his chair in front of Kate's desk and was making over-exaggerated googly eyes at her, the sort that only occur in movies.
Sure enough he was on about a classic. Gibbs stood behind him and motioned for no one to react.
"Tony, why are you not doing any work? I mean if you want I could fire you, then you'd have even more time prat around in."
"Gee, boss, you know you'd miss me."
"Would I really? Remember DiNozzo, play with my time I'll play with you." Abby, who had stood grinning all the time the men were exchanging brain cells for testosterone, now tipped Tony off the chair and sat on it herself.
"Nice to see you as well Tony. Hi Kate. Bye Kate. Bye Tony." Gibbs had seized the back of the chair and was now dragging her, backwards, towards the elevator. She waved as she went.
"Hey, Boss! You would miss me, wouldn't you?" Gibbs ignored the question.
It was good to get back into the lab, even if it was a tip and the amount of sample jars filled a whole shopping trolley. She had to admit though; the cleaners had done a good job at cleaning the blood up. Gibbs pulled her farther into the lab and she saw that, covering her desk, were red roses. As she got closer she saw there were labels on them, each from a concerned employee of NCIS. Later she learned that every couple of days new ones had been laid and the old ones taken away.
While the computers booted up Abby looked at her mail, which she had brought with her from Gibbs' place. A few bills, an invite to a science fair, the usual junk. Except the last letter, it was to thick for a bill, to formal to be another invite. Turning it over she carefully slit it open.
AN: I have decided, i need to take action. So here goes. I will NOT post any more chapters until I get seven reviews. I don't know why seven, but it's the number I have chosen.
Yours faithfully,
