"It's been a week already? Wow..." I say looking into Palmer's dreamy hazel eyes.
"Yes. And I've come to see you everyday." Palmer says.
"You realize we've only known each other two weeks right?"
"Of course. But it feels like I've been in love with you for years." He smiles as he kisses me.
"Palmer! Hughe! What do you think you're doing?" Gibbs demands standing in the doorway.
"Like we told you before, Gibbs. We love each other. Nothing will stop that." Palmer says.
"Love? You've barely known each other two weeks. How can you say that's love?"
"But... Gibbs... How could you possibly know what we feel?" I ask.
"I don't." With that he walks out the door and slams it shut behind him.
"What did I just do?"
"It's fine. He had it coming." Palmer says to comfort me. He moves up the side of the bed to be closer to my head. I look up at him and he gives me a smile. I lean my head on his side while a tear drips down my cheek.

"Ashton! You're back!" McGee says as I make my way into the squad room a week later.
"Yep." I say as I sit in the chair I had all the other times I was here. Something looked different about the room, but what? It couldn't be the fact that my chair was constantly moved could it?
"Nuh-uh. Up." Gibbs says walking into the room. My heart races. Am I in trouble for what I said?
To my surprise, as I stand up, he points to the other end of the bull pen. There is a desk. My own desk. Right between McGee and Tony. My own desk. A smile begins to spread across my face.
"Make it yours." Tony smiles. I walk behind the beautiful new desk and sit in my new chair. The desk already has a computer and a few other things... I go through the drawers to see what's hidden inside. A gun... Some bullets... An I.D. card with my picture on it... A badge... A badge?!?! I squeal at it's presence.
"I believe she found her badge." Ziva laughs.
"Wow. Not even ten minutes of your being back and we have a case." Gibbs says as he looks over to me, "Call Ducky and your lover and tell them." I hear chuckles fill the room. I feel my face turn crimson. I look up. I can't believe my eyes. Is Gibbs... Smiling?
