A/N: Now on to the second chapter. Let's see how Gibbs reacts to what Krista has said to him and then let's see how he reacts to what she did.
Confrontation
(GPOV)
I can not believe she told me to go to hell and then drove off. What in the world is wrong with the damn woman? I stomped back inside the NCIS building and got into an elevator and went back up to the bull pen. McGee and DiNizzo were at there desk and when they saw me they both said "Hi Boss." I just growled and then sat at my desk. My phone rang so I answered it and said "Gibbs" and then I heard Leon say "Well did you get her to come back in?" I growled and said "No I did not and she threatened to run over my foot if I did not move out of her way. So Leon I guess you can do whatever it is that you need to do but I am not going to beg her to work with me." I heard two gasp and I looked up to see Tony and Tim looking at me with shocked looks. I just growled and then went back to do whatever it is that they were doing.
I looked up as I heard the elevator ding. I saw Ziva coming out of the elevator but she was not alone. My mouth dropped open as I saw the person she was talking too. Standing right next to Ziva was Krista. I closed my mouth and then told Leon who was still on the phone to me "It looks like she is back" and then I hung up. I stood up and walked over to where Ziva and Krista were standing and I said "So did you decide to work for me after all?" The women stopped talking and looked at me. When Krista looked at me I gasped because even though the woman looked like Krista it was not Krista. The woman looked at me and said "Hello Gibbs." I gasped again because I could not place the woman. I said "Who are you and how in the hell do you know my name?" I heard everyone gasp and then I heard footsteps coming down the stairs. I looked over to see Leon coming down the steps.
When Leon got to us he looked at the woman and said "Hi Kirsten it's nice to see you again." The woman smiled at Leon and gave him a hug and then said "It is nice to see you too Leon. Do you know where Krista is? She left in such a hurry this morning that she walked off and forgot her wallet." Leon sighed and said "She was here but she left. She has decided that she didn't want to work here after all." I saw the woman look from Leon to me and then she said "What happened?" Leon pointed to me so I said "I told her that she would have to listen to what I said and do what I said. She made a comment about that being okay but that she would not get coffee for me or anyone else if she was told too. I told her that if she was going to work here that if I told her to go and get me a coffee she had damn well better do it. Krista is nuts I am telling you. She threatened to run over my foot earlier." I heard shocked gasps and then the woman looked at Leon and said "You know that she will not work here now. I will see what I can do to repair the damage that Gibbs here has done but Leon you know how stubborn she is." I saw Leon nod and then she looked at me and said "Gibbs you have not changed at all." My mouth slightly hung open but before I could ask her how she knew that she turned on her heel and walked away.
I watched her get into the elevator and once the doors closed I turned back towards Vance and said "I want answers damn it Leon." Leon shook his head and said "No, Gibbs. You messed this up so now you fix it. Also I will tell you this. Any chance of Krista or Kirsten telling you anything just blew up in your face because of how you acted. You need to fix this and fix this now. I want to see Krista here by the end of the day. I don't care what you have to do but do it." After he said that Vance left and went back upstairs. There was something familiar about both Krista and Kirsten but I could not put my finger on it. I walked back to my desk but as I started to sit down I noticed something on the floor so I went back over and picked it up. I turned it over and saw that it was a Wallet. I opened it up and saw Krista's driver license. I looked at the address and then said "McGee I want you to find everything you can on one Krista Walker. DiNizzo and David I want you with me. We have to go get our newest Agent back." I heard Tony gasp and then he said "Uh Boss what are you talking about." I sighed and then said "You heard Vance, Tony. He wants Krista back here today in any way that we can. You also heard that I messed up with her. We are going to go have a little chat with her." I saw DiNizzo look at Ziva and then they both nodded and then we headed out.
We got to the car and I got in the drivers seat and Tony got into the passenger seat while Ziva got into the backseat. Once I started the car and reversed out of the parking lot I sped towards the address on Krista's driver's license. What would normally take at least fifteen minutes only took us about ten because of the way I was driving. On the way over to Krista's place I thought about what I was going to say. I still was not sure when I pulled up in front of Krista's place. I was still angry because of the way that she had talked to me. When we got there I saw her car in the driveway so at least she was home.
We all got out of the car and headed up to her house. I knocked on the door while Tony for the hell of it rang the doorbell. I heard footsteps coming towards the door and then the door opened. When it first opened I did not see anyone so I started to open my mouth to say something when the person answering the door said "How can I help you sir?" I looked down and saw a little boy that looks to be about five years old. I said "Is Krista here?" He nodded and yelled "Mommy there are two strange guys and a woman at the door for you." I gasped when I heard him call Krista mommy. I then heard Krista shout "Honey what are you doing answering the door? You know I don't like you to answer the door without me beside you." I saw her come to a stop right behind the little boy and I said "Something you forgot to tell Leon and me?" She shook her head and said "Honey shut the door. I don't want to talk to the people at the door. Oh and by the way Gibbs, Leon knows I have a son. So have a nice day." I just looked at her and her son as he started to shut the door.
I knew that she was not going to give in easy and come back. I looked at Tony and saw him staring at Krista and then he said "Krista, it's nice to see you again. Where is my hug at woman?" I was shocked but I was even more shocked when Krista actually pulled Tony into a hug and then did the same thing to Ziva. I did not know that these two knew Krista. I felt a tug on my pants leg so I looked down. The little boy was looking up at me and then he said "Mister did you do something to upset my mommy?" I sighed and bent down to where I was on his level and said "I am afraid so little man. Do you have any clue how I can make it up to her." I could tell that the little boy was thinking and then he said "Tell mommy you're sorry for whatever it was that you did. If you talk nicely to her she will listen. Mommy always says that you have to listen to someone when they apologize because if you don't then you don't know what would have happened if you hadn't listened to them." I nodded and said "Your Mom is very wise." I saw the little boy nod and then he shouted "Tony" and jumped into Tony's out stretched arms. I stared in shock as Tony picked the little boy up and said "Hey Braden how are you lil dude?" I heard the kid laugh.
I looked into Krista's eyes and said "I am sorry about what I said earlier. I am not use to having someone talk to me the way that you did. Will you please come and work with us? I promise to never send you after coffee." I just looked at her without saying anything else because I could tell that she was thinking. She finally sighed and said "Fine I will come and work with you but the first time you treat me like a slave I will up and leave. I'm only coming to work with you because right before you got here Leon called me and begged me to come back." I nodded at her and then I said "If you ever threaten to run me over again you better do it or you will not like the consequences. Do I make myself clear?" She glared at me and said "Whatever you say. Now if you will excuse me I have a child to take care of. I will see you in the office tomorrow morning at 08:00 hours. Goodbye. Oh Tony if you want to you can come back over when you get off of work. I know that Braden has missed you." I saw Tony nod and then he gave Krista a hug and said "I will be back tonight then. We need to talk some anyways Krista." I saw her nod and then she took her son back inside and shut the door in our face.
I headed back towards the car with Tony and Ziva following me. Once we were in the car I looked at Tony and said "How is it that you know her?" He looked at me and said "Leon introduced her into Ziva and I a couple years ago. Since then I have kept in contact with her. Her son Braden has kind of adopted me as an Uncle so I spend time with him whenever I have the chance but unfortunately I have not spent any time with him for about six months now. I talk to him on the phone but its not the same." I just nodded and started driving. I was glad that Krista has decided to come and work with us. I was also glad that it did not take that much talking to get her to agree. I was thinking there for a while I was going to have to kidnap her to make her come and work with us. I could not help but think about who helps her with her son besides her sister. I wonder where the father is.
