SUMMARY: Gibbs and Fornell have a talk in the basement.
DISCLAIMER: I do not own these characters, nor am I making any money from them. I borrow them once in awhile, but put them away tidily.



“Jesus, Gibbs..I can’t take an on again/ off again relationship.” the balding man said hotly.


“What do you mean Tobias?" Gibbs said as he sanded the hull of his boat.


“One of my agents saw you at a restaurant, with a man.”


“You having me watched, Fornell?”


“Yes….no... hell, Jethro. The guy said it in passing. He was out at the same restaurant and said that he saw you. A woman I could understand, I guess. But another man….”


Gibbs put down the sander and moved over to the workbench. He found two fairly clean mugs and poured two fingers worth of bourbon into each.


He picked up one and took a sip.


He placed it down, walked over to the boat and resumed sanding.

“Jackson.”


“What?”


“The man in the restaurant was my dad, Jackson. He’s here from Pennsylvania. So we went out to dinner. He’s upstairs asleep in the spare room if you want to interrogate him.”


“Damn, I’m sorry, Jethro.”


“Do I see a hint of jealousy Tobias?”

“I..its…”


Gibbs put the sander down and walked over to the smaller man.


“S’okay Tobias.” he said as he wrapped his arms around him and gently kissed him.
