(This is a gift for Elflordmistress. I challenged her ( I am assuming she is a woman?) to a McGee/Director pairing as she has being doing some great work with them lately. And instead I had to write this down to get it out of my head. More chapters to come)

Chapter One

Gibbs looked up as Fornell stepped off the elevator and headed towards his desk

'Tobias, I wasn't expecting you'

'That's kind of the point Jethro'. He looked around taking in the empty desks as the rest of Gibbs' team were about their duties 'I think we need to take this into your office'

Gibbs eyebrows were up 'That bad huh?'

Fornell just looked at him 'You have no idea'

Gibbs was up and out of his desk in an instant and the two men strode to the elevator. Once in Gibbs flicked the emergency switch and turned to Fornell, watching his face trying to read what he saw there. 'So what's this all about?'

'I don't know if you already know or have guessed and since there is no easy way to explain I will simply show you' Fornell reached inside his coat for a large manila envelope and pulled out some photos, handing them to Gibbs.

Gibbs reached out for the slim pile and looked at the first one. It was outside Jenny's house, late at night. She was silhouetted in the doorway with light spilling out behind her, she was talking to someone, a man. His back was to the camera and Gibbs couldn't see his face. The next shot the man was walking away from her door while she stood there watching him. The man looked familiar somehow, the stance, the frame. Suddenly the next picture showed the figure closer up as the watcher zoomed in to get an ID.

Gibbs turned to Fornell, surprise etched all over his features 'McGee!!'

'Ah so you don't know then'

'Don't know what?'

Fornell gestured at the pile and Gibbs continued flicking through.

Shots of McGee and the Director having dinner together, leaning towards each other intimate at a small table. Smiling, talking, eating.

McGee and Jenny in McGee's gleaming Porsche. The top was down and the wind was whipping Jenny's hair loose. She was smiling at McGee while he spoke to her about something. He had his sunglasses on and looked relaxed in her company. He looked young and handsome in the sunlight while she had her hand up trying to capture some of the strands of hair behind her ear.

McGee escorting her into an expensive Hotel, his hand on the small of her back as they walked through the doors into the glass and marble foyer.

McGee and Jenny laughing together as they ate an ice cream cone while leaning up against a small brick wall.

Gibbs gut churned and he shut his eyes while his mind screamed.

Betrayal!

Never mind that she wasn't his. She didn't tell him. He didn't tell him.

'I don't believe it. Not McGee. Photos can be forged.'

Fornell quirked an eyebrow 'Interesting that you say not McGee instead of not the Director?'

Gibbs just stared at him.

'Besides I thought you would say that so I brought this along as well'. He pulled out a tape recorder.

Gibbs headed Jenny's voice, tiny but clear through the little machine 'I will meet you after work, it will be late. Gibbs is coming over and I don't know how long he will be'.

Suddenly there was McGee's gentle tenor and Gibbs' blood ran cold.

'Shall I come over to your place?'

'No it's too obvious I never know whose watching me. We will meet at the usual place'

Gibbs stared at the machine in Fornell's hand

'Is that it?'

Fornell shook his head 'There is one bit more. It does tend to indicate that their relationship is ……….intimate. Do you want to hear it?

Gibbs just nodded and Fornell continued

Jenny voice again 'And so how is 'Big Boy' today?' Gibbs screwed up his eyes as he could hear the teasing in her voice, the sultry smile he had seen a thousand times before. Directed at him.

McGee sighed before answering 'Jenny must you say it that way? I know you're just teasing me you know. Like you and everyone else in this building.' McGee sounded down, frustrated.

Gibbs listened as Jenny's voice changed from teasing to almost protective?

'Now Tim, how could I tease you? I have seen what you can do with a USB key remember? You're a dangerous man'

McGee laughed at this and then they quickly arranged to meet at their 'usual' place.

Gibbs kept his eyes closed as his world reordered itself around the concept of McGee, Timothy McGee being Jennifer Shepard's 'Big Boy'.

'How long Fornell?'

'How long have I known or how long do we believe this has been going on?'

'Both'

'Well those first photos were taken some three months ago. After the Sec Nav ball. He goes in at 2.30am and comes out around 5.00am. That's the first time anything turned up on the radar but at first we didn't think anything of it. Figured returning something to her she left behind, had a drink maybe, couldn't sleep who knows? It was only later that we started to collect some more bits and pieces that we became suspicous. I was let in on the loop not long ago. When I saw who was involved I decided to unofficially inform you.'

Gibbs nodded 'Thanks Fornell.' His mind was still spinning. Three months? At least? He remembered seeing her the next day after the Sec Nav Ball. She had been tired, preoccupied. Gibbs had teased her about staying out too late and she had snapped at him, telling him to mind his own business. Was that why she had been preoccupied?

Fornell continued 'They have been careful I will give them that. Those couple of photos and that little bit of tape is all we have and it's far from conclusive but I think you can see that given who is involved……'

Fornell watched as Gibbs stood silent, his mind just running over all the thousands of little times he had seen them in a room together. Could he tell now? Should he have seen? Since when had he become Tim? And her Jenny? Why hadn't they told him? Ok that one was a little more obvious but still….

Fornell reached out and flipped the switch releasing the elevator knowing that what ever was going on in Gibbs' head he couldn't help now.

Ohhhhhh what's going on? Please review and let me know what you think!
