A/N: Just to clarify, I had the idea to use Abby for this quote before the recent episode. Because of that, she know needs some serious fluff. Inserted here:
March 17
"Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you're a good person is like expecting a bull not to charge at you because you're vegetarian." - Rabbi Mordechai Kaplan
Abby Suito growled at her computer screen.
Literally, growled.
Timothy McGee didn't know whether to turn and run or walk straight in and hug her.
"I know you're there."
Apparently, she made the decision for him.
Throughout the day, McGee had gotten regular updates on her disaster of a morning. This being the earliest he'd been able to get down to see her, the Caf-Pow and sandwich were a peace offering – hopefully something to make her smile.
As she slammed her fist into her desk and made a few hand gestures he was certain her mother hadn't taught her at it, maybe his plan wasn't going to work as well as he hoped.
"Abby?" He cautiously stepped forward, placing the food next to her. "Are you okay?"
Sighing deeply, she didn't say a word. Instead, she flung herself at him, pulling him into her. After a few bone crushing seconds, she loosened her grip and simply stood there, enjoying the feel of him so close.
McGee smiled into her hair as he felt her relax. Trailing circles across her back, he resisted the urge to close his eyes as she did the same.
"Nothing is going right today." She whispered, her fingers massaging the back of his neck, brushing along his hairline.
"I heard." He pulled her a little closer, not wanting to let go just yet.
"You always know how to make me feel better though." She looked up at him, smiling. Resting his forehead against hers, McGee smiled too. "Thank you."
"Anytime." He kissed her then, feeling himself melt into her – just like every time they kissed.
He did everything he could to make her happy, so that every day was a good day.
Because she deserved nothing less.
