The Shocking Discovery Chapter 4
The next day
With Abby
She was getting ready to go bowling with the siesta's. She was wearing a pink button up t-shirt, a blue skit that had a white poodle on the right hand corner on the front, with a pink jacket that also had a white poodle on the back of it, and she was also wearing black glasses.
"Oh crap! I'm gonna be late" Said Abby to herself, as she looked at the clock hanging on the wall
So, she grabbed her bowling bag, her keys to her 1931 Ford Coupe hot rod, and left her apartment.
A few minutes later...
Abby pulls into the parking lot that's used for the Bowling Allay, get out of her car, and make her way inside.
While the Siesta's were getting ready, Sister Rosita spotted Abby heading towards them.
"Why hello there Abby" Said Sister Rosita, as she gave Abby a firm hug
"Hello" Said Abby, returning the hug
"Shall we get started then?" Asked Sister Rosita
"We shall." Answered Abby
…
With McGee...
He was sitting at his desk, using his type writer to type up chapter 1 of the squeal to 'Deep Six.'
Every weekend when he wasn't working, he would be sitting at his desk in his apartment and begin to think about ideas for his next book or for a new chapter.
On one side of his desk, there was a paper shredder that had all of his bad ideas for his book but he just didn't think that they were good enough.
On the side of his type writer, he had a half eaten granola bar and a glass of orange juice. The other side of his type writer, he had a blinder full of his notes and ideas on how to start the next chapter.
With Ziva...
She was sitting on a park bench after a long jog around the park.
Every weekend morning, she would get up before 6 and go to the park for a long jog. After that, she would go back to her apartment to get a shower and then she would study English phases, because Tony keeps on correcting her every time she says the phase wrong.
She was thinking about a Lt. Roy Sanders who died from exposed to radiation by a co-worker 4 years ago. Every time, she went jogging; she would wear the orange beanie that Roy used to wear when he went jogging.
Everything has changed since she resigned from being a Mossad Agent to become an American citizen and a NCIS Agent. She hasn't spoken to her father since she sent him a email telling him that she is resigning from being with Mossad . To her, Gibbs is more of a father to her than her own father because Gibbs was the one who saved her from a construction camp.
With Tony...
He was in his apartment sitting on the couch in his Ohio State sweats having a movie marthorn, eating pizza, and drinking coke.
The first movie that he was watching was called Casablanca. The second movie that he watched was The Spy Who Loved Me. After about the 7th movie, he went into his bedroom, changed into his basketball jersey and shorts and went to the park to some b-ball.
About 10 minutes later...
Tony arrives at the park, he walks over to the basketball court, and he can't believe who he's seeing playing basketball.
It's...
McGee's sister, Sara
"Oh well well well, look who we've got here" Said Tony as walked onto the court
"Oh great, did McGee send you to check up on me? Cuz if he did, I'll gonna kill him" Said Sara, obviously annoyed that McGee still thinks she needs checking up on like a baby or something
"No. I just came to play some basketball and what is wrong with me?" Asked Tony
"Yeah, whatever. Nothing is wrong with you and who said you can have the court?" Asked Sara
"Um, I did." Answered Tony, trying to show her whose boss
"Oh yeah? Fine I'll play you for it" Said Sara, standing her ground
"Deal." Said Tony
With Ducky...
He had just got gotten back home from taking his mother to Bingo.
He walked into his sitting room, walked over to the record player and put Mozart on. Then he sat down in a chair and began reading a updated book about autopsies.
About 3 hours later...
Ducky put his book on the table, walked into the foyer to put on his coat and hat because it was time to pick up his mother from Bingo.
He walked out of the house, locking the door behind him, got into his Morgan, and drove off.
With Gibbs...
He was in the basement drinking coffee and thinking about his feelings towards Abby and about what Shannon had said.
"I wish you were both here right now, I miss you both so much, maybe you (talking about Shannon) are right. There is a small amount of room left in my heart for Abby but I'll never forget you both. How could I? You were my first love and my first family, I guess you (talking about Shannon again) are right. Abby seems to know when I am in the room when she's not looking behind her and she is the only one to make me smile..." Thought Gibbs, as his thoughts trails off and a small smile forms on his face without knowing it
Now he is thinking about Abby and all of the moments they had starting after Kate Todd died to leading up until now.
"You're just saying that to make me feel safe"Said Abby, as she looked at him while she was sitting next to him on the floor in her lab
Gibbs puts his arm around her shoulder and pulls her close
"I'll keep you safe, Abby" He kisses the top of her head "I promise" Whispered Gibbs, as he held her tight
So lost in his train of thought, he didn't hear someone calling his name
"Daddy Daddy"
Gibbs looked over at the stairs and saw Kelly, his 9 year old daughter running down the stairs.
"Kelly? What are you doing down here without your mom?" Asked Gibbs
"Well mom sent me down here to talk to you because she thinks that you wouldn't take her advice." Answered Kelly
Gibbs raised an eyebrow
"Dad, I know you're still broken about what happened to me and mom but you can't keep living like this. I like Abby, she's smart, intelligent, pretty, nice, easy going. There's more to life than building boats and drinking bourbon, you wanna enjoy it while you can. It's not your time yet and when it is, we'll be a family again but right now your team needs you, grandpa needs you, and Abby needs you too." Said Kelly
"When did you get so smart?" Asked Gibbs
"I don't know. I guess from watching you and Abby. Do you remember when you and Abby were in the lab and she imitated you? You were blushing daddy" Said Kelly, slightly giggled
"No I wasn't." Said Gibbs, hearing his daughter giggle was like music to his ears
"Oh yes you were, don't try to deny it" Said Kelly
"No I didn't" Said Gibbs, trying to deny it again
"Daddy, I want you to be happy and Abby is perfect for you. 1, You both like caffeine 2, You both are comfortable around each other. 3, You both use American Sign Language. 4, You both like doing things. Do you want me to keep going?" Said Kelly
"Okay okay, I get it." Answered Gibbs
"Good" Said Kelly, as she started walking up the basement steps "Oh, and Dad?" Asked Kelly as she turned to look at him
"Yes?" Asked Gibbs, as he looked over at the stairs
"Don't wait too long" Answered Kelly, as she smiled at him
Gibbs just nodded his head
'I love you daddy" Said Kelly
"I love you too, princess" Said Gibbs, as he smiled back at her
With that, Kelly disappeared to return back to heaven and to her mom who was waiting for her
A few minutes later...
Gibbs walked over to the workbench, pulled out his cell phone from a jar, and pressed the number 2.
With Abby...
It was her turn to bowl again and she was standing at the line; about to roll the bowling ball down the lane when her cell phone was ringing.
So, she walked over to her chair and pulled out her cell phone from her bag.
"Hi Gibbs" Said Abby, as soon as she pressed the 'accept call' button
"Hey Abbs, how is bowling?" Asked Gibbs
"Oh it's great. Right now I've bowled a 240 and I have 3 frames left" Answered Abby
"Could you come around when you are finished?" Asked Gibbs
"Sure. I could come around now if you want" Suggested Abby
"No, Abbs. You finish your game and have fun; I can wait." Said Gibbs
"Oh, alright. I guess I'll see you in a little bit" Said Abby
"Bye Abbs" Said Gibbs
"Bye my silver haired fox" Said Abby
With that, they both hung up
Abby walked the short distance back to the line, drew her arm back, and rolled the bowling ball down the lane.
After that, she walked back to her sit and sat down.
"How is Gibbs?" Asked Siesta Rosita
"He's good. He was the one who just called me asking if I could come around when I'm done with bowling." Answered Abby
"Tell him I said hello" Said Siesta Rosita
"I will." Said Abby, as she put her bowling ball in the bag
Then, Abby said goodbye to her fellow nuns and told them that she can't wait until next Saturday.
"I wonder what is so important that it couldn't wait work yet can wait for me to finish a game? Or I wonder what he wants to talk about that I need to go over to see him tonight, it sounded important but he did sound distressed or upset." Thought Abby, as she was on her way to Gibbs' house
With Gibbs...
"How am I going to tell Abby? I guess I'll have to be honest, open, and truthful. I haven't been in a relationship for a while without it ending in disaster." Thought Gibbs, as he was now drinking coffee
A few minutes later...
Abby had just arrived at Gibbs' house, she parked her car, got out, went up the pathway to his front door, let herself in, and took the stairs to the basement.
Gibbs was still deciding on what to say until he heard a squeak coming from the stairs and he looked over to see Abby walking down the steps.
"What is so important that it couldn't wail until Monday?" Asked Abby, signing via ASL
"I can't stop thinking about you and I wanted to see you" Answered Gibbs signing back to her
Abby steps closer to Gibbs and gives him a typical Abby hug
"Great minds think alike; I can't stop thinking about you either." Thought Abby as they pulled apart
"I was worried incase you didn't feel that way about me, I didn't want our relationship to change if you rejected me." Said Abby, signing back
"That would never happen but we don't have to worry about that since we both feel the same way." Said Gibbs, signing back
After that, they go for a walk and while they are walking; they talk some more about the situation.
About 10 pm, they return from their long walk and they go down to the basement to work on the boat for a little while.
3 hours later... (It's 0100)
Gibbs realizes that Abby has gone very silent when he finds her, he notices that she is curled up sound asleep in the boat.
"She looks like a butterfly lying on a flower" Thought Gibbs, referring that it's one of the most beautiful sight he has ever seen
So, instead of waking her up, Gibbs picks her up and while picking her up she remines asleep, and he puts her in his spare room.
He puts a comforter over her, rubs her arm like he used to do for Kate when she was still alive; to comfort her and Abby responded by pulling the comforter up to her chin.
To be continued...
What is going to happen next?
