A Better Place…
Gibbs left MTAC that morning with someone that Holly had never seen before. She had been in a sulky mood to disguise her shock the whole morning but when her father came down with another woman she burst into tears.
"Hey shush Holly, it's alright," Abby crooned, holding her in her arms. Gibbs and the woman came over to Tony. The woman was perhaps forty and had stern features, flaming red hair and dressed in a black pinstriped jacket and skirt.
"Jethro, you never told me you had a daughter," whispered Jenny Shepard almost accusingly.
"Was it important to tell you this piece of information Director?" Gibbs retorted coldly.
DiNozzo stared after the couple as they strode off to the elevator. He seemed to be talking to himself and gave the air in front of him a perverted look. Abby and Holly stared at each other, Abby laughed as a woman walked in, she had dark hair and exotic features and was dressed casually.
"Umm… I was just…" Tony stuttered to her.
"Having phone sex?" the woman asked. Holly didn't know what it meant but Abby found it funny. "Ziva David, Mossad." She introduced herself and they were still snickering. Holly turned around and saw Kate stood there, as she had been when they were last together, the morning of her death, yesterday morning.
"Don't worry Holly," Kate told her. "I'll never be gone forever; I'll always be in here." Kate touched Holly's heart and Holly giggled.
"But I don't want you to be dead, I want you to be alive," tears had formed on Holly's face. She reached out hug Kate and the ghost hugged her. Although they weren't really touching, she knew it was true. She knew Kate was dead and while it made her sadder, Kate was in a better place.
That was right, a better place.
Hope you enjoyed that. Next one shall arrive as quick as possible! Have fun
