Ncis: 5 Years of Love's pain

(working on this story while trying to figure out where to go with other fic)

McGee's Choice:

McGee had spent the last few years since her arrival after Kate's death trying to hold in his feelings for her but it was not easy for, Especially now that she was getting married. Ziva David and Tony Dinozzo had bgan dating after the events of the undercover job they had undertook in the hotel... Gibbs was not happy about it but he let them break rule 12.

Jenny shepherd had congratulated both Ziva and McGee on their engagment which had happened 3 years later, Jenny was a little bruised and her shoulder hurt from taking on the assassins sent after her, she thought she was done for but Mike Franks had come back sooner than she expected and helped deal with the last of them... Gibbs had asked her out to dinner and slowly he was being less withdrawn than usual... Abby began dating a member of the Tech's in the lab, everyone was moving on but McGee.

McGee's feelings for the Israeli goddess were becoming painful and more unbearable by the second.

As the day past McGee found the invitation to their wedding on his desk and Ziva coughed behind him "Well McGee... i'm waiting for your answer" McGee gulped back the bile in his throat as his heart broke... he had not had the heart to tell her about the 3rd decision he had talked to the director about 'gibbs was going to be pissed.

"Come in Agent McGee" Jenny Shepherd called through the door and McGee entered.

"Thanks for seeing me Ma'am" he said feeling very nervous.

"No problem... Whats up?" she asked wondering why he wanted to see her.

"I heard there was a position open at Ncis in Los Angeles" he felt his heart pound... he loved it here but he couldn't handle the pain anymore.

Jenny Shepherd looked shocked and suprised at his request "yes there is... Why" she leaned against her desk.

"Personal reasons" he replied and her eyes narrowed in wonder before nodding clearly shocked by this whole request.

"Very well... when would you like to take up the post of field agent in Los Angeles" she asked taking his forms out.

"As soon as possible" McGee felt his eyes cloud over so he blinked them back as best as he could.

"Well lucky for you, the jet is ready to take you once you finish this case up" she pulled the phone to her ears "I'll phone Hetty in Los Angeles"

"Thank you" he turned to leave and walked to the door before stopping "It's been a pleasure Ma'am" he said before leaving a smiling Shepherd "The pleasure was mine Special Agent McGee" she replied loud catching his ears.

McGee had recalled that conversation while Ziva stood their waiting for him to answer but was cut off by Gibbs head slapping him... Ziva looked confused as Gibbs pulled McGee to the elevator.

"I believe you heard the news from the director" McGee chuckled as Gibbs hit the stop button on the elevator.

"Yes i have... i want to know why?" Gibbs asked losing his patience.

McGee nodded knowing that Gibbs would want to know the truth "Because of them" He motioned to the door and Gibbs looked confused before it hit him.

"You love Ziva" he said knowingly and McGee nodded.

"I understand... i just want to say... your a good agent... we'll miss you" McGee gave Gibbs a soft smile before heading out... this case needed to be over and done with so he can catch his flight.

The end of an Era:

The team had finished up with the case an hour after he had put in for transfer, Tony and Ziva still had no idea, Abby and Ducky didn't know either but Gibbs had called them up to make the announcment.

McGee had packed up everything he owned from his desk and placed them in the bag whille Tony and McGee watched confused "Hey McGeek... spring cleaning" Tony teased good naturly but McGee had not answered which alarmed Tony a little, Ziva was getting worried as Abby, Ducky and Jenny shephered gathered in the bullpen.

Abby was tearing up as McGee walked over to her and pulled her into a gentle hug "It's been fun Abby" she giggled as he kissed her cheek "I'll keep in contact" he promised and she nodded "you better" McGee chucklled as he hugged Ducky "Take care of yourself Ducky" he said to the older gentleman whoo chuckled "you too Timothy"

McGee turned to Gibbs and Jenny shepherd "as i said before... it has been an honour" he turned to Tony and shook his hand "you take care and be good to her... or i'll come back to deal with you" Tony chuckled at McGee's joke but McGee was not Joking.

McGee turned to Ziva who looked like she was fighting an internal fight to keep the tears at bay "take care Ziva" he leaned in and kissed her cheek before heading to the elevator leaving the team and her behind forever.

now he had a new team to be apart of... Hetty was going to be waiting for him at the terminal when he arrived.
