CHAPTER 6: WORK & THE SECRET...

ABBY'S P.O.V.

MONDAY MORNING...

ABBY'S LAB...

I walked into my lab and began to wake everyone up.

After having to stop by the bathroom on the way, I cannot wait until this morning sickness is over.

So because of that and not being able to sleep well last night, It had been a long morning already.

I cannot have a Caf-Pow because of the baby and it's turning out to be hard not having one.

I had not been sleeping to well because Friday Tim and I had fallen asleep on my couch.

Then Tim and I pretty much stayed at my apartment talking all weekend, when he went back to his apartment last night...I don't know.

I just didn't want him to go. I'm so confused right now and I don't know what to do.

A lot of things have been going through my mind from the morning after I went to the bar, then found Tim beside me when I woke up.

One of them is confusing me more then anything...

'Do I tell, Tim that I still love him? Is this love for him even real? I know he loves me and seems to be waiting for me.'

"Abbs." Came Gibbs voice and I turned to face him.

"I don't have anything yet, Gibbs. I just got here." I said automatically.

"You okay, Abbs?" Gibbs asked.

"Fine, Gibbs." I replied and gave a smile.

'Of course you can't fool, Gibbs.'

"What's wrong, Abbs?" Gibbs asked looking at me and I looked away.

I couldn't tell him yet, I needed Tim at my side before we told him or anyone else.

"I can't tell you yet, Gibbs." I said and he looked at me.

"Okay, Abbs. You sure you're okay?" Gibbs asked.

"Yes, Gibbs, I'm fine." I told him and finally he turned to leave.

NCIS SQUAD ROOM...

TIM'S P.O.V.

"Enough, Tony. I'm not going to tell you about my weekend." I said.

"Was it someone special?" Tony asked.

He had been bugging me about my weekend since I walked into the squad room and he had seen the smile that I couldn't keep off my face. Just the thought of Abby and the baby.

"I can't tell you, Tony." I said.

"Hey..." Tony seemed to be actually thinking hard about something.

Ziva was watching us.

Everyone was finally getting used to having her on the team and it was clear that Tony was still missing, Kate...but he was trying. Abby was still having a hard time.

"If you keep you face like that it will melt." Ziva told Tony and Tony looked at her.

"Freeze, Ziva, if you keep your face like that it will freeze." Tony told her and she shrugged before turning back to her paperwork. "It does not matter." Ziva replied.

"There was one day last month you came to see me..."

I looked at him surprised he even remembered.

"...you, I and Abby were talking. Something happened and you two left." Tony said looking over at me.

"You said some pretty hurtful things and we didn't want to be around to listen to anymore." I said.

"Why did you two show up together?" Tony asked.

"Because I had gone to see Abby and she wanted to see if you were okay. So just drop it, Tony." I said as Gibbs walked in and sat down at his desk.

He had come from the direction of the elevators leading to Abby's lab and I'm guessing that's where he had gone.

He looked at me and then turned to the work on his desk.

'She couldn't have told him...I know Abby is close to Gibbs, but she would have told me if she was going to tell him.'

I turned back to my computer and began going through my e-mail. I found an e-mail from Sarah and then remembered I was supposed to meet with her Friday.

I forgot and made a plan to talk to Abby that same night. Then Abby and I had been talking all weekend.

My phone rang and when I answered it, I almost said...

'How are you and the baby?'

However, I managed to stop those words from leaving my mouth.

"Hey, Abbs ...I'll be right there. Boss, Abby said she needs to see me." I said and took off for the elevator.

Tony said something that I didn't catch and Gibbs yelled something at him just before the elevator doors closed.
