Chapter 5
Ducky's phone rang at 2100.
Since Ziva and Tony hadn't arrived yet, he was sure one of them would call now and he was right.
"Ducky, it's Ziva."
"My dear I've been expecting your call." He said softly.
"I'm sorry we won't make it to the dinner, I hope you're not mad."
He heard Tony's voice in the background saying something like 'come back to bed'.
"No I'm not" he said softly laughing.
"Enjoy the togetherness with your man."
"Thanks, Ducky I will."
That worked other than planed but it worked.
His thoughts wandered shortly to the couple downstairs.
With the hope they would at least talk.
-----
Abby woke up tightly embraced and half on top of an other naked body.
She didn't have a glue what time it was but it didn't matter, there was no way in hell she would move away from her current position.
She sighed satisfied and let his heartbeat lull her back into a peaceful slumber.
--
It was the best sleep he had in years.
He hadn't had a nightmare; he had only seen pictures of the woman who was currently laying on top of him.
He opened his eyes and was greeted by two green ones, gazing onto his face.
Instantly a smile crept onto his features.
"Good morning."
She smiled back.
"Good morning."
She crossed her arms lowerd them onto his chest and rested her chin ontop of her limbs, staring into his eyes.
Tenderly he began to stroke over her bare back.
-
"What's on your mind?"
"I wonder where we go from here."
"I guess to the breakfast table."
She laughed. "That wasn't exactly what I meant."
"I know." He answered seriously.
"I don't care Abs, as long as we go there together, I don't want this to be a fling. You're the first woman since Shannon that I really love."
At this point she had tears in her eyes.
"I love you too, Jethro."
She moved a bit upwards to place a tender kiss upon his lips.
A loud bark in front of the door disturbed the by then passionate kiss.
"I guess Ducky ended our captivity."
"You might be right" he said laughing "we should continue this at home."
Abby nodded.
"What are we going to tell Ducky and the rest?"
"We tell nothing, but we don't hide a thing either."
She smiled.
"We should get dressed then."
"Yeah or we should keep lying here."
Another bark became audible from outside the door.
"Ok, getting dressed wins." He said while kissing her tenderly once more.
-
It took them over 20 minutes to dress.
For some funny reason their lips ended up glued together after every single piece of clothing they put on.
Her hair remained down framing her face.
With the heels in her hand and the blouse unbuttoned she stood next to the door waiting patiently for Gibbs, who was busy with his shoelaces.
"Don't you want to put on your shoes?" She shook her head. "Not if I can avoid it."
-
He smiled something he had done a lot the last 24 hours.
-
"Actually I wondered why you were wearing those in the first place." She looked at him with an innocent expression in her eyes.
He looked at her; from one second to the other he realized why she was wearing those, - for him.
A surprised smile crept on his face.
"You dressed up for me?"
She hunched her shoulders, "Well…"
He crossed the distance, his hands found their way to her cheeks; he slightly bent down and looked straight into her eyes.
"You don't have to dress up for me. I love you exactly how you are."
"But from time to time I like dressing up, especially for you."
"I don't mind when you do, I'm just saying you don't have to wear things you don't feel comfortable with to please me."
"I know."
They exchanged one last kiss and finally went upstairs.
---
Ducky sat in the kitchen his face covered by the newspaper he held unfolded in his hands.
"Good Morning Ducky." Abby uttered happily.
"Good morning." Ducky retorted while he lowered the paper to the table to be able to look to his friends.
He was certain that his friend was still pissed but, to his surprise, that was far away from the truth.
His former 'hostages' were staying opposite of him with huge smiles on their faces.
Gibbs had his arm possessively wrapped around Abby's waist.
-
The ME looked from on smiling face to the other and finally smiled himself.
"Coffee?"
"Yes" they said in unison while sitting down.
"Where did you hide Tony and Ziva?" Abby asked grinning while Gibbs let his hand move over her back in small circles.
"They didn't show up."
The only woman in the room raised her eyebrows. "They had a good excuse." Ducky added.
"And what would that be?" Gibbs asked.
"The same like you both- finally gaining some sense!"
"It's about time." Abby stated happily and Jethro just grinned.
"Maybe he comes to work well-rested on Monday."
"I wouldn't count on that" Abby said laughing.
----
Monday morning arrived sooner than Gibbs liked. They had started to move Abby's stuff from her apartment to his house.
Some would say that it would have been too soon.
But they both knew each other well; there wouldn't be a real surprise.
If they needed time alone, than he had his basement and she had her coffin.
Why wait, they had lost so much time already.
---
The elevator announced itself with his usual 'ping'.
Tony, Ziva and McGee were already at their desks working.
Gibbs stepped out of the small cubicle.
"DiNozzo, David, now!"
The agents looked up and Gibbs pointed towards the cabin. Gibbs facial expression didn't give away anything.
The newly lovers exchanged a look and got to their feet hurrying towards their boss.
Tim looked shortly up from something he was working on the pc but since his boss didn't call him he worked on, not really caring what those two had done wrong this time.
-
To the surprise of the couples, Abby was also present, smiling.
The doors closed and elevator moved a bit until the emergence switch got turned.
Without further ado Gibbs cut right to the chase of the matter.
"Congratulations, but no making out at work and by that I mean no making out during working hours and on the navy yard." He looked into two shocked faces.
-
After a short pause he added:
"All of the attendant."
Abby pouted slightly.
"That is not fair, when we have a case we are here 24 hours at times."
Gibbs let his arm wander around her waist pulling her close and kissing her forehead while Abby's arms found their way around his chest.
"Life is not fair." Jethro sat matter-of-factly.
Tony and Ziva glanced to the exchange of endearments in front of them.
"What did we miss?"
"Nothing much, just Ducky who played an unorthodox cupid, by taking us hostages."
Abby said smiling.
"You two escaped that fate by 'gaining some sense' before you came to dinner on Friday."
She added.
-
Gibbs cell rang.
"Back to work." He said before switching the switch and answering the call.

Meanwhile in the morgue, Ducky smiled while looking at the sign he got from his two friends.
Ducky's consulting hours 24/7
