Didn't she notice the changes herself, or was she just afraid of telling him.
-
Gibbs glanced over to Abby who was telling them in her unique rambling way about the evidence she found or better yet she didn't find.
So far she couldn't tell much more than what they already knew, they had found two dead Seaman both shot in the head, with the same weapon in less than 24 hours.
Both were stationed on different ships and no other link had been found so far.
-
During her babbling she slowly turned back into her smiling, cheerful self. A few moments ago, when they had entered the lab, she had been down and close to tears.
It was a sight that greeted him the lasts couple of days fairly often, much to his dislike.
-
He had noticed that she wasn't as cheerful in the mornings anymore and she looked a little paler than usual right after getting out of bed.
Plus when they made love she was more sensitive lately, he barely touched her skin and she was burning with desire.
-
The team had noticed the slight change in her behaviour as well, though not before that moment had someone said something.
Of course the first who had the guts was none other than Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo.
-
Gibbs glanced to Tony who whispered in that moment something towards Ziva.
"It's probably the time of month."
-
Ziva didn't react, either because she noticed Gibbs stare or because it was something she wouldn't comment anyway.
While Ziva not even blinked, Tim stepped uncomfortable from one leg to the other and turned red.
-
Jethro mentally shook his head.
A grown up man turned red while listening to topics like sex and period.
Gibbs sighed inwardly.
At least he was a good agent.
--
Gibbs mind wandered back to his Abby.
Tony couldn't be more wrong.
Her cycle wasn't the cause of her odd behaviour, at least not like they thought.
She wasn't due for another week, though if he was right there would be a longer break anyway.
-
Jethro's eyes found their way to the woman who currently typed on her keyboard to change the pictures on the plasma.
If he was right, their life would change. God he hoped he was right.
-
He would give her two weeks in which he would look for more hints, before he would ask her directly. That is if the impatience wouldn't get in his way.
If Abby wasn't pregnant, he would ask her if she even considered children with him or at all.
-
Gibbs had never thought that he wanted children again but thinking about this possible pregnancy he longed to be a father again. He longed to be the father of Abby's children to be exact.
With a deep internal sigh he focused on her current babbling, which by now hadn't much to do with the case anymore.
-
-
Abby was well aware of the changes of her body and behaviour.
Otherwise she probably wouldn't have bought the pregnancy test, which currently burned a hole into her purse.
Well who wouldn't notice the sick feeling in her stomach, right after waking up; the odd longing for food that she had hated since she was a little child or the mood swings she currently was fighting against.
-
They never had talked about having kids.
At some rare moments they had talked about Kelly and Shannon, but the topic never changed towards wanting children or not.
Abby hadn't dared to ask if he would want children, since she knew fairly well how he still suffered about Kelly's and Shannon's loss.
-
She also never had dared to start a conversation that headed towards his late family.
He once had asked why she never asked a question about them and was slightly surprised about her answer.
-
The look on his face was still present in her mind as if it had been yesterday.
She had said that it wasn't a lack of interest; she didn't ask any questions because she simply didn't want him to feel bad or sad.
Then she had taken his hand in hers and had continued.
-
Abby had told him that she would be there all the time he wanted to share a memory; she would listen and would weep with him.
He had pulled her in a hug and kissed her softly.
-
That she never mentioned kids was for the same reason, she didn't want him to feel sad.
Abby sighed softly and continued with her report. With the hope she would find the time to take the test once she had found a lead for their current case.
If she was indeed pregnant, she would figure out a way to tell him once this case was closed.
