Chapter 2
Jenny had been given a list of the employees, she had seen that all her friends from high school and most importantly her ex-boyfriend worked in the very building and all just so happened to be the best.
She had seen their pictures and how they'd changed in the last twenty years but she wouldn't believe it was them until she saw them.
Ever since leaving D.C Jenny had also changed, she created a plan, a list of things she would do in her life to get to where she wanted to go, this was where she wanted to be, the first female director of an agency.
She left England when she turned twenty and moved to LA where she trained to be a cop, from there she joined NCIS LA before moving all the way up to being the director and living in Washington D.C where she lived in the old George town property that her father had passed down to her and that generations of the Shepard family had lived in before that.
"Are you looking forward to this?" Former director Vance asked as they walked to the catwalk after Jenny had been sworn in and brought up to speed.
"I am" Jenny said with a nod, her stomach turning to butterflies at the thought that soon she would come face to face with her old friends, whom probably hated her.
Moments later she walked on to the catwalk, a hundred or so eyes fixed on her. She hadn't felt this nervous in years. She looked down at all the people, the murmuring of their whispers just reaching her ears making her feel even more nervous; she was being judged something she didn't like.
She looked through the crowd wondering if her friends were there. Her eyes locked with a pair of deep blue. She would know those eyes any were; it was him it was Jethro.
Jenny was so lost in the thought of seeing him again that she wasn't paying any attention to what Vance was saying "Do you have anything you would like to say Director Shepard?" the older man asked getting her attention.
The redhead had to think for a minute before speaking "I look forward to working with all of you" she said with a smile. Everyone soon began to disperse back to their areas, back to work. Jenny watched as everyone walked away or more like she kept an eye on Jethro to see where he went.
"Good luck Jenny" Vance said holding out his hand.
"Thank you and good luck with your job at homeland security" she said shaking his hand. Vance nodded before getting in the elevator and leaving.
The redhead took a deep breath, holding onto the railing, closing her eyes. She'd finally got to where she wanted to be, she was the queen and this was her kingdom.
She then made her way to her new office to meet her assistant. Jenny walked over to the woman, who was looking down at her computer, her brown curly hair covering her face.
"My name is Jenny Shepard I'm the new director of NCIS" she said with a smile, but then she noticed the woman stiffen in her seat.
The assistant looked up slowly, her brown eye's shinning with happiness and surprise "Jenny" she said with a smile coming around the desk.
"Cynthia" Jenny said shocked to find one of her best childhood friends, she embraced the woman in a hug "How are you what are you up to? Married, single what tell?" she asked excitedly.
"I'm great, I got married just under a year ago, how are you?" Cynthia asked very happy to find that her new boss was her old best friend.
"I'm good, I'm single, back living in the town house" she said with a smile.
"You know that everyone works here, Kate, Ari, Ziva Tony, Tim, Abby, Ducky, Jimmy, Gibbs" Cynthia warned her, knowing that it would be hard for Jenny and Gibbs to see one another again, she had known they had really been in love.
"I know" Jenny said her voice a lot quieter all of a sudden, "Back to business" Jenny said straightening her suit and taking a breath "I'm going to meet all of the agents" she said giving Cynthia a smile.
"Good luck" she said with another smile before Jenny walked off towards the catwalk.
An hour later and Jenny was beginning to know what a Barbie would feel like if it was real, her cheeks hurt from all the smiles as she spoke to the rest of the team. She save the MCRT till last as she wanted to give them time to prepare to see them again and she needed time to prepare herself.
Abby was sitting at Tim's chair behind his desk as he stood behind her rubbing her shoulders; he knew that Abby was feeling uncomfortable with being five months pregnant.
Ducky was talking to Kate and Ari about Sarah and her ear infection when Jenny rounded the corner of the bullpen.
Gibbs was the one who noticed her first; he looked her up and down for a moment taking in how she had changed and how she hadn't. Her hair was still red and long with its natural curl just like it had always been. Her eyes were still the emerald green that he remembered but there was something in them, was it regret, Sorrow, Love even? For once he couldn't tell. She was still as beautiful as she had been twenty years ago, she looked older, wiser but still the sixteen year old her had fallen madly in love with.
Jenny couldn't believe how much Jethro had changed; his hair had changed from its dark brown but was now a sexy salt and pepper that she was very much attracted to. He was still as handsome as ever if not more so now. He was like a silver haired fox and she liked it.
"Jethro" she said supressing a smirk.
"Madame Director" he replied with the same sexy grin that he's always had.
TBC…
How will the rest of the team react when they realises she standing there? Seriously please give suggestions I'm stumped.
Please review with suggestions and your thoughts of this chapter please.
