Abby: Great, now I have to build a coffin!

Gabby Friendship.

"That was an interesting cover story…" Gibbs offered just as she entered the elevator beside him to go home.

"He was asking about you, so my brain was lingering in the Gibbs section…it's the first thing that came to my head…"

"The Gibbs section?"

"Well yeah," she shrugged. "What? You don't have an Abby section that you turn on when you walk into my lab or see me?"

"Guess I never thought about it like that."

"You probably should…cuz I can almost guarantee that people switch modes when they see you."

He glared at her. "Is that so?"

"Uh huh," she nodded. "Particularly at first meeting; not that I acted any different when we first met…its just that first impressions mean a lot…and well, at first impression most people wouldn't get to see the real you…"

"The real me?"

"The one that hugs, and kisses, and gets all papa bear."

"I didn't hug or kiss you the fist time we met."

"No," she agreed. "I hugged you. And let's just say I got a knack for pegging people."

"In the pegging section of your brain?" He smirked a bit.

"Are you making fun of me Gibbs?"

He pinched his fingers together. "Maybe just a little."

It was then the elevator doors opened. "See? You're never this adorably cute and fuzzy when you meet other people?"

"Yeah, well the new people I meet are usually murder suspects."

She stepped off and walked beside him towards their cars. "True, but I'm sure it wouldn't hurt to be a little more of the Gibbs I see, and a little less of the Gibbs other people see."

"Funny, I don't remember hiring a therapist."

She smiled at him. "Okay, okay. You're just so fun to pick apart."

"So I've been told." He opened her car door and placed a quick peck on her cheek. "Good night Doctor…"

She returned the kiss with a huge smile. "Good night….and don't forget that we start the wood working classes this Saturday…"

He pointed at his head. "It's right there in the Abby section…"

She slipped inside the driver's seat and continued to smile. "It's a pretty big section huh?"

"Oh yeah…"
