I've had this song come across my Pandora, numerous times. It reminds me of Jibbs and I've wanted to do a songfic of it for, forever. For this particular songfic though, this will be in Hollis' PoV. These are her thoughts after Gibbs broke up with her and got back together with Jenny. Set four months before 'Director-1, Col. Mann-0'.
Song: She's More - Andy Griggs
Summary: Col. Mann's thoughts after Jenny and Gibbs get back together.
Characters: Col. Hollis Mann.
Side note: As always, please listen to the song. You don't have to, but it might be a good idea. The lyrics have been kind of twisted for the purpose of this songfic. I'm not quite sure what exactly this is, but here it is. Don't forget to leave a review!

I felt done with the world. I retired from Army CID and from working as an agent for the Department of Defense. The reason? Jennifer Shepard, the Director of NCIS. Gibbs did nothing but ogle her and flirt with her. It hurt, because he was my boyfriend and I loved him.
Gibbs is supposed to like my blue eyes, hers are emerald green. Why the change?
She's not the woman of his dreams. Is she? What am I, a fleeting fancy?
The fact that her hair is not quite as long as mine, makes me wonder if he's ever ran his fingers through it before. He sometimes watches it as the sunlight reflects on it, giving it a fiery color.
Director Shepard, can't be more than 5'3". I thought he liked longer legs, that went on for days. Long legs like mine.
She's not the type of girl I pictured him with, at all. So it took me by complete surprise when, he broke up with me.
When my heart got lost in those bright blue eyes, my stomach used to flutter and my heart was happy. Now, my heart hurt and my stomach didn't flutter.
Jennifer is more than I could ever be, and I see that. I don't know their history, nor do I really want to.
No, it wasn't love at first sight for us. But the moment I looked at the two of them, I knew it. I knew the girl I saw, was the woman Gibbs was born to love. It was fate, I suppose.
I had a hold on him. I didn't want to let him go but I had to. The way he looked at her... made me realize, I no longer had a hold on him.
If any man deserves to be happy, it's Gibbs. He's been through some really tough shit and I've seen how it effects him.
I couldn't ask for more, than to see Gibbs happy.
A love like their's, is hard to find. Someday, I know I will find mine and I know that it will take time. I guess I am okay with that.
It had taken me by complete surprise. Should I be mad? Yes. Am I mad? No. However hurt I may be, I still love him and wish him the best. I wish her the best too.

So, I have no idea what this is. I was in the mood to write something with angst, and this is what came out.
