Mission 101

Chapter 60- In The End, We Only Regret The Chances We Didn't Take

McGee's POV

"Hey Abbs, I'm really sorry about earlier. I didn't mean to offend, it's just... You're like a little sister to me and I don't want you getting hurt. I know you really liked Eric and I also know that seeing him with Nell would have been hard for you, but I am here for you." I stated, as Abby walked over to me and wrapped her arms around me. "I know, I'm sorry for getting mad at you. I know you're only looking out for my best interest." Abby replied, before being cut off by Callen walking into the room, along with Kensi, Sam, Nell, Eric and Deeks a few minutes later. 

"Wow, is it just me, or are people from D.C really friendly and affecionate with co-workers?" Deeks commented, as Abby and I stepped away from each other. "What do you mean?" I asked, turning to Deeks. "Well, Tony just hugged Ziva and kissed her on her forehead  and now you two were just hugging, like seriously, why aren't we like that here?" He commented. I smiled and shook my head, trying not to laugh.

"What's so funny?" Deeks asked. "Haha, Seriously? Tony and Ziva are dating. Surprisingly Gibbs doesn't know yet and I think I'm the only one that knows. Well not anymore, but anyway." I explained, making Abby turn to me and frown. "WHAT? Two of my best friends are dating and you didn't think to tell me?!" She yelled, slapping me on the back of the head. "Hey! You're not Gibbs. You can't do that. I couldn't tell you. No affence Abby, but you have exactly got the best track record of keeping secrets and unless you want Gibbs to fire them both or split them up or.. or..." I continued.

"I think Vance may know, though. Because he just threatened to send Tony on assignment in Greece for three years, if he tells Ziva anything." Sam interupted. "What? Ohh no! McGee, I won't be able to cope with Tony gone for that long. Ohh no. He's probably already told her. McGee, McGee, Mcgee... What are we going to do? Ohh no. This is bad, this is bad, this is very very bad. Oh-" Abby rambled. "Abby! You need to calm down okay? Tony may be a pain in the ass, but he's not stupid. He's not going anywhere.  I won't let that happen, okay?" I comforted, pulling Abby into a hug.

"Oh my god!" Abby yelled, pulling away from me and picking up her phone. "What?" I asked, looking at her. "I need to call Breena. She needs to know what's happening! Oh my god, is she okay? What about Veronica? Is she okay?" Abby panicked. "Abby! You need to take a break, okay? I spoke to Breena today, her and Veronica are doing fine. Abby, you need to calm down. Everything is going to be okay." I stated, pulling Abby into a hug, once again. "Who are Breena and Veronica?" Deeks asked. I smiled, pulling away from Abby slowly. "Breena is Jimmy's wife and Veronica is their daughter." I informed, causing Deeks to nod happily.

"McGee? Have you heard from Ducky? What if they have Ducky too?" She sobbed. "They don't. Ducky is fine." Someone spoke. Abby and I turned around to see Ducky standing in the doorway, with his hat in his hands. Abby immediately ran up to him and hugged him tightly. "Ducky! Are you okay?" She yelled. Ducky smiled. "I'm fine, sweetheart."

When Abby finally let go of Ducky, he walked in and gave me a quick hug. "Hi, I'm Doctor Mallard. I go by Ducky." He greeted, shaking Sam, Callen, Kensi and Deeks' hands. "Ahh, so this is the famous 'Ducky' we have all been hearing so much about! Nice to finally meet you!" Sam stated. "Okay, Ducky. These are Special Agents G Callen, Sam Hanna, Kensi Blye and that is Detective Marty Deeks." I introduced, pointing to them as I said there name, before Tony walked in the room and gave Ducky a quick hug.

"I heard you were here! Just in time, Abb-" He started, before Ducky cut him off. "I know. Abigail you must stop thinking like that, we are going to find James before anything bad happens. But the only way we are going to be able to do that, is if you take a deep breath and a sip of your Caf-pow, and get working or finding James." Ducky stated, leading Abby to her computer. "Timothy? Are you just going to stand there or are you going to help Abigail?" He added, making me nodd my head, sit next to Abby, and start typing away on the computer.
