Gibbs(POV):

 Against every rule in my book, I'm stepping forward taking her right hand in mine. I raise it to her forehead, "Wrong hand, Abbs." I whisper, hoping she doesn't hear what I hear.... an old man pining after a girl who thought of him as a friend at best and a father at worst. But then, she leaned into me and for a moment I thought it was possible.

"Hey Abby, do you want to...." Tony looked between us many times. I took a step back, immediately missing Abby's warmth. "Boss what are you still doing here?" He smirked at Abby.

"Could ask you the same." I looked at him.

"Well, I was just inviting Abby to hang out Saturday to talk about...." He looked at her. "Things."
He raised his eyebrows. 

"Uh, Gibbs was gonna let me stay with him." She smiled.

"Is gonna" I stated.

"Abby, you know you could always stay with me?" Tony offered.

Images of Tony wooing Abby and her admitting she's always been in love with him flashed before my eyes. "No!" I cleared my throat. "Besides I have more room."

"Boys, Boys... lets not turn this into a 'who's is bigger' fight." I held my arm out to Abby and she took it. "And text me about those plans Tony, sounds fun." She winked at him and I tensed before remembering my hope from a moment ago.

Abby(POV):

Getting into his car, I inhaled deeply. I smiled, "I love that smell."

"What smell?" Gibbs slid in and began to pull out of the parking lot.

"Old spice and sawdust." I giggled.

Gibbs smirked. "Only you would Abbs." He turned and smiled at me.
