OK, so I was writing this and i thought 'Oh no is that how Abby woud act' then i thought well since this is fanficiton then it didnt matter if she was a little oc, right??

Well enjoy!!!

McGee and Abby were standing side by side analyzing, well more like listening intently, to Alaister's phone call, trying to find a sound that would give them some clue to his, Alaister's, and Tony's whereabouts. They were to listen to the call before going over the email address, which McGee doubted that they would get any leads from. Abby kept glancing over at McGee, knowing that there was something that he wasn't telling her. She knew this when he came into her lab looking as if he had just seen a ghost.

"McGee! Tell me what's wrong." She stated pausing the recording and looking at her friend. Tim turned towards her.

"Nothings wrong Abby. Lets get back to the call before Gibbs comes." He said turning back to the computer. Abby turned him back around almost violently.

"There is something wrong. What happened? Why do you look like you saw a vampire, and not in the good way?" Abby asked as her eyes locked onto McGee's. He sighed seeing the worry in her eyes. Tim didn't want to tell her but she'd find out sooner or later, she always did.

"It's Tony. Alaister sent Gibbs a web video, that was streaming live. He had Tony with his hands chained over his head, Abby he...." He stopped as he put his hands to his face. "Abby he whipped him. I saw it. Tony's blood was splattered all along the wall behind him! Who would do that!?"

Abby stared at him in disbelief. Who would do that, indeed. She glared at the monitor where they were listening to Alaister's phone call. This sick bastard not only kidnapped Tony, but was torturing him and to top it all off, he broadcasted it live to the bullpen. Abby had to admit that Alaister was unlike any other criminal they had come across before.

"Don't worry McGee, Gibbs will kill the bastard and get Tony back, you'll see." She said as she ran her hand across his back trying to soothe the distraught agent. She waited until his head had risen and looked him straight in the eyes. "You love Tony, don't you?"

McGee's eyes widened, but he didn't answer. He just turned back to the recorded phone call.

"We have work to do Abby." Was all he said before putting the earphones that he had taken out back in his ears and pushing play. Abby stared at him for a moment before quickly walking out of the lab and into the elevator.

Gibbs was sitting at his desk, staring intently at his cellphone. It was almost time for Alaister to call, more accurately it was almost time for him to come clean about his feelings. He knew that there was no way out of it, if he didn't tell Tony, he didn't even want to think about what Alaister was going to do to his senior field agent. It was around this time that he heard the ping of the elevator and looked up expecting McGee only to see a pissed off Abby coming his way.

"Gibbs! Why isn't Tony back yet!? He should have been back by now! You should have gotten him back!" She started her voice growing in volume after each word. Ziva got up and went over to the distressed girl. She put her hand on the Goth's shoulder and turned her so they were facing.

"Abby. Gibbs is trying all he can to bring Tony home." Abby glared at the mossad officer.

"You don't get it Ziva" She said as she lowered her voice to a whisper, "Its McGee he's worried beyond belief."

"We all are, Abby, but all we can-" Ziva started before Abby interrupted her.

"No Ziva, McGee, he's" She started, her eyes glancing at Gibbs who had turned his gaze back at his cell. "He's in love with Tony" She said so quietly that Ziva almost didn't catch what she had said.

"That is not possible."

"What, why not?"

"Because I think that Gibbs is in love with Tony."

The girls stared at each other taking in the new information. there was a good minute of silence between them. Abby spoke first.

"Do you know what this means?"

"No. What?"

"Oh. I don't know, I was sorta hoping that you would know."

Ziva gave Abby a look before walking back to her desk, motioning for Abby to follow. She brought up Alaister's picture on the screen.

"Abby , I need you to run this picture through NCIS' criminal databank, and any others you think of."

"Ok sure, but why?"

"Because this man took Tony." Was the grim reply. Abby's face darkened.

"You can count on me. Just send it to the lab and I'll get right on it." Abby said as she turned back to Gibbs. "Hey Gibbs sorry for snapping at you. I was just worried you know?"

Gibbs looked up at the forensic scientist, and nodded. He knew the feeling, Abby did what he wanted to do, yell. He wanted to take out his frustration on the nearest living thing, but he had to hold it together for his team, for Tony. Just before Abby went to walk out of the bullpen, Gibbs' cellphone rang. He answered, not even looking to see who was calling.

"Gibbs"

"Boss?" Came the nervous and pained voice that Gibbs knew all to well. He looked up at Ziva and Abby who were looking at him with curious looks.

"Tony!"
