The Team Goes to Therapy and Team Building
Director's Office
"Jen…"
"No Jethro, your team Ducky and Abby have to go. SecNav's orders."
Jenny picked up the ringing phone. Why the hell do we have to go to therapy? Kate's been gone over a year, I've been back long enough to remember why I left in the first place. Why? Jenny was scowling as she put down the phone.
"Looks like I'm coming with you." Gibbs smirked.
"Well Madame Di-rect-oorr. You can help me tell my team. And explain to them why we are going." Gibbs chuckled as Jenny stormed out and he followed.
Bullpen
"Tony, stop it or I will kill you with this paperclip." Ziva growled as yet another paper ball whizzed past. Tony was acting like a 5 year old, sitting there grinning stupidly and throwing paper balls at her. And McGee was no help, just sitting there with the Bambi eyes as Abby had called them.
"Hmmm, I think I'll pass… OW!" Tony shrieked in surprise. "What the?" Tony rubbed the back of his head. He looked behind him to find the source of the paper. It was Gibbs walking down the stairs with the Director next to him.
"DiNozzo." Gibbs growled.
"Right, stopping now boss." Tony yelled to his boss. "This can't be good." He whispered to Ziva and McGee. "AH!" Tony yelped as a hand connected with the back of his head.
"DuhNozzo, David call Ducky and Abby and tell them to get their butts up here now."
"Right away boss." "Okay, Gibbs."
A few minutes later Abby, Ducky and the rest of the team were congregated in the bullpen. "Gibbs! Gibbs! Gibbs! What's going on? Something important, you never call me or Ducky up!"
"Abbs, breathe. Yes we have some important news." The whole team looked puzzled.
"Your team and I will be going to a team retreat. This will involve therapy, which you must attend, survival training, team building and other activities. The FBI team will be there as well. No complaining." The field agents all groaned, but Abby seemed excited and Ducky fairly interested.
"Jennifer, when and how long will this be?"
"We leave tomorrow and then we stay there for two weeks."
"What! Who's going to director and our cases?" Yelled Gibbs, clearly he had not been informed.
"Leon Vance will take my place and another team will take your place."
"Um, Director, just out of curiosity, why do we have to do this?" asked DiNozzo.
"SecNav's orders."
"Jen, is there nothing you can do?" Asked Ziva clearly hoping for some sort of loophole.
"No, Ziva." Everyone looked very put out by this. Except for Abby.
"Comeonguysit'llbesomuchfun. Won'! YAY!" Shouted Abby.
"I mean it could be worse."
"Really Mah Gee, how?"
"I dunno."
"Jethro, Ducky will you come with me." And Jen led them to her office and closed the door.
"Everyone done to 'Labby'!" Abby shouted skipping away happily, pigtails swinging wildly. McGee quickly followed. Tony shrugged his shoulders and walked off. Ziva followed but had felt awkward with Abby since the incident, but came none the less.
Labby (Abby's Lab)
"Aren't you guys so excited!" yelled Abby. Yes, finally a time to put scheme GTVJGT (Get Tony/Ziva and Jen/Gibbs Together) into action. First I'll need to persuade McGee, then… She had definitely had one to many Caf-Pow!s today.
"She is bouncing off the halls." Ziva muttered to Tony.
Tony smiled at her mistake. "It's bouncing of the walls." Ziva blushed slightly.
"Oh whatever Tony." I love it when he corrects me. In fact I love him, I just wish I could tell him.
"I hate therapists" groaned McGee. Tony smirked.
"Ooo. Do we have a McScaredyPants? What traumatic experience got our little McGoo in to the therapist?" Tony would never let him live this down.
"Look I was 6, my hamster died right in front of me. A wood pecker attacked it."
"That's very special, McWoodpecker." Tony said patting McGee on the shoulder sarcastically.
"Lay off my little Timmy. I think it's very sweet." Everyone got up to leave. " Wait, the real reason I called everyone down here was… I need everyone's help."
"With what?"
"Getting Gibbs and Jenny together." Tony and McGee looked at each other and shrugged. But Ziva was unsure, she wanted to protect her friend, but she and Gibbs were perfect for each other.
"Fine. But just be careful, those are two vey dangerous people." Abby nodded and began explaining her scheme to them. But Tony and Ziva only knew the half of it.
The Director's Office
The 3 older adults walked into Jenny's spacious office. " Jethro, Ducky, I hope this trip will be fine."
"Jen, relax. We just have to keep an eye on David and DiNozzo. That's all."
"I agree with both of you. This reminds me of a time when…" And with that Gibbs walked back to his desk. This is going to be a long two weeks.
Bullpen
Gibbs sat at his desk for awhile waiting for his agents. Then he heard the DING and Ziva, Tony, and McGee walked over.
"What were you doing?"
"Dicussing ways to scare the therapist."
"Ah. Well you all go home, get back and get here tomorrow morning before 700."
"Anything is specific we should bring, boss?"
"Ya, DiNozzo, camping stuff, not nice stuff, workout stuff. Ya get the general picture?"
Gibbs walked off towards the elevator. His team followed suit quickly. Time to pack for an interesting trip.
