Disclaimer:
I do not own NCIS, nor any of the characters from it. I do not make any money from the writing of this story.
Pushover
Disclaimer: If you recognize it, it isn’t mine. The people and the props… I would like to have a mass spectrometer, but I have no idea what I’d do with one.
Author’s note: Hi guys! Long time no update. Sorry about that. Hectic life. And yet soooooo uninteresting. Anyhoo, I think I’m making this story a bit AU. I mean, I don’t like that Vance person, so lets just pretend Jenny’s around. Also, Lieutenant Colonel Mann’s still very much around. This is my AU and I’m sticking to it.
One more thing before I start off this chapter: I’ve lost touch with the NCIS-verse, so pardon if things aren’t as canon as they should be. I’ll try my damndest to stay in character, but if we end up shooting guns with rock salt, it’s just ‘cos I’ve spent the last 3 days watching the Winchester brothers.
P.S: I’d like to remind all of you out in FF land that I’m not a native speaker, so please ignore the grammar. Or be my beta. I promise great riches…. And cookies!
P.P.S: Thanks to everybody who’s keeping an eye out for this story. I hope I don’t let you down.

He hung up and smiled. This was a welcome distraction. Seeing Abby in the lab with Ziva, just being relaxed and chatting sent his mind into scheming mode. She looked carefree. And we couldn’t have that, now could we? So he ran through a million and one ideas how to make her… uneasy… before even speaking. And then his phone had rung. It was Mann. She was interesting enough. Not a pushover. But then again, you didn’t make it to where she was by letting people push you around. If he played his cards right, he would certainly be getting to know the Lieutenant Colonel on a more personal level. And that would draw his mind and other bits of him away from this game he was playing with Abby. He was too close for comfort. That stunt he had pulled with forbidding her from letting McGee stay at her place almost made him look… jealous. It almost felt… real? Like he was genuinely bothered by Abby having some man in her apartment. Even if it was just McGee.
No, he was stopping this. Right now. No more games. No finger sucking. No arm twisting. Not a damn thing more. He would pursue Hollis Mann and be happy with it. She was a good, solid woman, who wouldn’t break once he’d had his fill and left. As he always did. She might damn well leave his sorry ass first. But he would not dig any deeper with Abby. It could only bring trouble.
This was all decided in the 5 seconds after he hung up. He was getting slow in his old age.
-Who was on the phone? – Abby piped up from the other side of the lab, apparently busy picking through evidence.
-None your business, Abs. Now, what have you got for me?
-Oooh! – she crooned, batting her eyelashes – Gibbs and Jane Doe sitting in a tree. K-I-S-S…
-ABBY! EVIDENCE! NOW!
-Alright, grumpy Gibbs. But just let me tell you, I am not happy with staff treatment by the big boss.
As she went through every piece evidence and her discoveries with Gibbs, her mind focused on his agitated tone. He had been so happy talking to the woman on the phone. And then he snapped her. Completely unprovoked!!... Ok, perhaps not completely unprovoked, but still, nothing that deserved being yelled at. Of course, he hadn’t had his coffee yet, but he had never overreacted like that. What the hell was going on? No CafPow!s, no slight bickering, no flirting… She had almost completely forgotten about the flirting. Maybe that little game of Who’ll Back Off First was off too.
Gibbs’ voice broke through her line of thought.
-Abbs? Is that all? – he asked, sounding a bit glum, but less angry at least.
-Well… ummm… yes. That’s all I’ve got. I mean… the case…. Once we got through the lacquer on his toes it was… was pretty basic. Tim helped and I… the laptop… - she wasn’t making any sense.
-Good work, Abbs. – he noted, leaning over to give her a quick peck on the forehead.
As his lips connected with her skin, he felt her arms clamp around him. She hugged him tightly and pressed her face to his chest.
-Oh, Gibbs, please don’t be mad at me. I don’t know what I did, but I promise to fix it. I’ll get my own CafPow!s… I’ll… well I don’t know how I could work any faster, but I can try and… Just don’t yell at me, please…
He had upset her. Finally it had happened. He did think Abby had a bit more of a thick skin when it came to his remarks… but he had yelled at her. And just over a silly kids’ song. He could not lose his cool like that. He wouldn’t apologize. But he would try to… be forgiven. So he rubbed his hand up and down her back in a reassuring manner (not feeling the lack of bra straps AT ALL!) and placed his lips in her hair.
-Shhhh… I’m not mad at you. I just haven’t had my coffee…
She pushed away from him suddenly.
-Gibbs, you shit! I am not McGee. You can’t just vent your anger out on me! I don’t care how caffeine-deprived you are! I haven’t had my CaffPow! yet and you don’t see me being mean to you! You are banned from the lab! BANNED, I say! For 3 days! Good day to you, sir! – she fumed as she pushed Gibbs out of the lab.
The nuns didn’t raise a pushover. Gibbs was a friend, but right now he might as well have been on the 10 most wanted list. First the thing with Tim and now this and maybe she was overreacting but she would not be treated like a twit. If anybody could hold their own around Gibbs it was her. And she fully intended to do it.

Reviews are better than Angry Abby :D
