NCIS- Ellick: Hard Time.

Chapter 1: The beggining of a long story.

TORRES'S POV:

It was 7:30 AM and still no sign of Bishop. She usually is early when it comes to work but not today. When she came out of the elevator, she was paler than usual and looked like she hasn't slept in days. She just went to her desk without saying 'hello' or anything wich is weird since she's always the one to cheer us up with her 'good mornings'. I went towards to see what's up but gibbs came:

"Grab your gear, dead petty officer."

Bishop and I were both one the car, as always, but she just looked outside listening to music while I was driving. I tapped her on the tigh wich caused her to listen to me.

"Hey Bishop, is everything okay?" I asked to her.
"Yeah everything's fine." She answered with the least conviction she could put in a sentence.

I wanted to force a little but she immediatly went back to looking outside with the music in her ears.
When we got at the crime scene, we all did our jobs, McGee and I talking to the people around, Bishop taking pictures, Gibbs was, weirdly, on the phone and Jimmy around the body.

"Bishop, you're going to Sloane immediatly after that." Gibbs said after ending the call. Bishop seemed confuse and mad at the same time, still with her tired look.
Once we got back to the Navy Yard, Bishop directly went to Jack's office, under Gibbs orders.
"What do we got?" Gibbs asked with a coffe in his hand.
"Petty officer Morgan Lindon, 32, dead around 3 AM this morning, three gun shots in the chest."
"Any ennemies?"
"Yes, the ex-wife, he cheated on her."
"Okay, check that up."

BISHOP'S POV:

Once we got back, I just went to Sloane's office since Gibbs ordered me to. She was waiting for me on her couch.

"Hi Ellie, how are you doin'?" She asked with a weird tone in her voice.
"I'm fine" I said while I was, clearly, suspicious. "Gibbs send me to you but I don't really have anything to talk about sooo-"
"Oh, well, if you tell me thet you're fine than I believe you, have a nice day"
It was a really unecessary talk but, anyway.
I got back to the bullpen where only Gibbs was there.

"You alright, Bishop?"
"Yes I am, Jack didn't have anything to say so yeah."
"Okay but I got a call from your mother and you're going home Bishop, you're not working, not after what happened."
"Wait-what? I don't need to go home. Going home will only make me turning ar-"
"No discussion, Bishop, home, NOW!"

So then I went home and just sat on the couch not doing anything for hours.

McGEE'S POV:

Torres and I came back from Kasie's lab when we saw Bishop taking the elevator.

"Where is she going?" I asked to Gibbs since it was not normal for her or anyone to leave in the middle of a case.
"What'ya got?" He didn't answer, it was probably personal.
"Well there was his wife print around the wound so we're bringing her here."

TORRES'S POV:

After closing up the case, the wife adimitted she was the killer, I got home wondering if I should go check on Bishop, but since she barely spoke to me I decided not to go. After a couple hours drinking beers while watching a boring movie, I heard a knock on my door. I opened it kinda suspicious.
