Eating a gallon of ice cream all by yourself is considered gluttonous. Eating a gallon of ice cream with your friend is considered therapeutic.
Abby knocked again on the door in front of her. She was starting to feel very nervous. She shouldn't be here. It wasn't her place.
The door opened a crack, before it opened more fully. Jenny stood in the doorway of her house, looking very bemused. "Abby?" she asked.
"Is it a good time?" Abby checked. "Because I know I probably shouldn't disturb you at home but I thought you might want some company and –"
Jenny simply stepped back and gestured for her to enter the house. Abby obeyed. She glanced around as she stepped into the hallway. Wow. She had to come here more often.
"What's wrong?" Jenny inquired.
Abby sighed. "El jefe is in London, tracking down the dirtbag. And it feels strange with him gone. I brought ice cream! I wasn't sure what you'd like so I got a few tubs."
The Goth was relieved when Jenny's smile grew bigger. "I'll get us some spoons."
"You don't mind that I came over?" Abby questioned.
"You are always welcome," Jenny answered, disappearing into the kitchen.
Abby smiled. While Mommy would never admit it, she was worried about Gibbs too. They might as well worry together, and sharing ice cream was a cure for all ills.
