I'm a DiNozzo

Carson (19)

Ellie's P.O.V. (Season 5, Episode 6 I think)

"Maybe you could rustle up some coffee DiNozzo?" Officer Collins asked as I walked up, taking off his jacket.

"I hate you." I said simply, setting a file on my desk and looking Collins straight in the eye. Ooooh the number of times dad had complained about this man at home. "And that's my job, so you get to sit down." I said, motioning to dad who had stood up. So he did, smirking. "You, get to stop giving orders to the people in charge of the case that you are in fact 'helping' with." I said, pointing at Officer Collins, putting quotation marks around 'helping'. "And I will go get coffee." I fake bright smiled at Collins, and left to go get coffee.

"Leah, perfect." Gibbs said, meeting me in the hallway as I was returning to the cubical.

"Hey Mr. Gibbs, what can I help you with?" I asked, setting the cups all down on Tim's desk.

"You're on babysitting duty for the night. Take 'im to your and Tony's place. Don't lose 'im or I kill ya." He replied. "Kid's down with Abby."

"I- ugh- I- ... Yeah. Sure, got it." I agreed, knowing to argue would be stupid of me.

I took the elevator down to Abby's lab where there was a boy about age 11, sitting next to Abby.

"Hiya Ab. You must be Carson," I greeted brightly, my heels clicking as I joined the two of them at the island in Abby's lab.

"I am," The boy agreed. "Do you have any tattoo's?"

"That's a question I didn't expect to be getting." I replied instead of answering.

"That's not an answer." Carson replied, raising his eyebrows.

"Yes, I do." I replied.

"Where?"

"You'll never know." I replied with a wink. "Come on kid, you're staying with me tonight." I said, waving him over to me.

"Bye Carson!" Abby said waving, as he and I left.

"Oh, wait out here for me will you? I have to give this to Abby." I asked, pointing back into her lab with 3 giant files in my hand.

"Only if you show me one of your tats." Carson bargained.

"Who says I have more than one?"

"Me,"

"Alright then, deal." I agreed, narrowing my eyes at him. I walked back in to Abby's lab, and plopped the files on her island. "Here's the junk you requested. Don't know what all of it is, that's just what was there."

"Thanks Ellie!" She replied, her eyes in her microscope.

I walked back out to Carson, who was still waiting by the elevator. "So," He said as the two of us started going up in the elevator. "You owe me a look at one of your tattoos."

"I do don't I?" I raised my eyebrows for a second before sighing. "Hold this," I insisted, handing him my small hand clutch which I took everywhere. It was small, white, with a gold zipper.

"Can I look in it?" He asked.

I looked at him with squinted eyes for a moment. "You remind me of my dad." I said, shaking my head, and chuckling. "Sure, but I thought you wanted to see my tattoo."

"I do."

"Well here it is." I replied, pulling the cuff of my sleeve back to revel the semi-colon inked there.

Carson scoffed. "Lame." i had to take a second before replying to that.

"You sure you don't know Tony DiNozzo?"
