Sweet Moments
- Superglue -
Ok so basically Jen decides to 'Help' Gibbs out abit on a case and they go down to Autospy to see Ducky, But he isn't there and they get a little carried away on Ducky's desk when Palmer walks in, Jen in her hurry to get up knocks Ducky's favourite Coffee cup off his desk and they have until the morning to fix it before he notices.
Jennifer Gibbs and her husband Leory Jethro Gibbs were sitting in their kitchen trying desperatly to fix the coffee cup that belonged to their good friend Doctor 'Ducky' Mallard.
She sighed in frustration and rubbed her temple, "This is all your fault you know" She told her husband turning to look at him.
He raised his eyebrows at her,
"My Fault? How is it my fault exactly Jen? You were the one that wanted to get out of your office for abit and help me! What did you say again?... O yea thats right, I keep getting calls about this case, Its high profile Jethro and we both know you don't handle the Media well" He said mimicking his wife's voice
She hit him in the arm playfully, "I don't sound like that" She told him faking anger, "And I didn't say it like that, I said I wanted to see what you had cause SecNav keeps calling wanting updates on the case! You are the one that offered to take me down to Ducky's to see what he had and as for the Media do I really need to remind you what happened last time one of them annoyed you?" She asked him.
He rolled his eyes at her now, "Same thing" He mumbled turning his attention back to the broken coffee cup that sat on their Kitchen table.
"Anyway, If you had just stayed in your office none of this would have happened!" He told her
"You are the one that started it in the lift!" She said looking at him
"How? It was you that said Ducky's desk was the same as the one in that Paris..." She blushed as she reached over and put her hand over his mouth to stop him from finishing the sentance.
"You're the one that lifted me onto the stupid thing!" She told him not removing her hand from his mouth
He reached up and removed her hand, "You're the one that kissed me first!" He pointed out
"You were the one that suprised me so I screamed, That's what made Palmer hurry into the room!" She protested, Wanting to make sure he knew it was his fault the cup was broken.
"You were the one that jumped off his desk, and knocked the cup off" He told her
"You were the one that lifted me onto His desk Jethro! And I had to jump off did you want Palmer to see you all over me!" She said raising her voice
He sighed knowing that him and his wife were both stubborn he usually loved it about her, But tonight he did not.
"Jen its 0100 we have about 5 hours before we have to be at the office, So how about we agree to disagree and find a way to fix the damm cup" He said
She knew he was right but hated to admit it, "Ok but this isn't over" She told him, Fixing him with her own version of a Gibbs stare,
He rolled his eyes 'Of course it isn't' He thought to himself.
They both looked glumly at the Cup in front of him,
"We could just tell him what happened and offer to buy him a new one" She suggested
He raised his eyebrow, "Do you want to be the one to tell him Jen?, Sorry Duck but when you weren't in we got a bit carried away on your desk, Palmer heard Jen scream and walked in, Jen jumped off your desk and broke your cup." He said scarsticly
"Ok telling him defiently not a option" She said, Rubbing her neck like she did when she was frustrated.
Then suddendly she had it, "I know how to fix it!" She told him
He looked at her glad that one of them had come up with a solution,
"How exactly?" He asked her
"Superglue!" She told him pleased with herself
"Ahh, One problem with that Jen, It will leak when he puts coffee in it" He pointed out to her
"That won't matter" She told him
"What do you mean?" He asked her now curious
"It doesn't have to be perfect cause we can't hide from him that it's broken all we have to do is get it to look like it is in one piece and then make sure Palmer or Tony breaks it" She explained pleased with herself.
"That might just work Jen" He told his wife
"What do you mean might work?" She demanded, Fixing him with look.
He knew when to give up and this was one of those times. He didn't answer her instead saying,
"Where do we keep superglue? Do we even have superglue?"
"Bottom drawer" She told him
A few minutes later he had found it and was attempting to try and open it but he couldn't, "Let me try" She said laughing at his frustration, He held the bottle up and she pulled on the the small cap...With the force of her tugging it exploded. All over their hands.
"I Got it!" Jen said with a victorious smile.
"Ahhh,Yes well Jen" Gibbs looked at their hands, which were stuck together by the Superglue "We have a bigger problem,Way bigger..."
Jen follwed his eyes till she was looking at their hands, they both tried to move them apart, and both failed miserably.
"Oh shit" They both said
Gibbs smirked at his wife, "Well this can’t be…That bad? I mean it comes off right?"
"Of course it’s not bad Jethro" she said sarcastically, "I've always wanted to have my hand Superglued to yours! Ever since I said 'I Do' I have been waiting for this day, Right up there with the time you got us locked out of the house and I don't know if it 'comes off'"
"Hey! It could be worse, You could be superglued to Dinozzo" He pointed out, Letting the comment about them being locked out after their honeymoon slide, Cause he knew that was one battle he could never win.
She slumped against her Husband. "That's true" She agreeded
"Let's just try and get un-glued ok?" She told him.
Walking her Husband over to the sink, She turned the tap on with her free hand and grabbed the dish soap that sat on the edge of the sink then poured it all over their glued hands, She snatched the sponge from the window ledge and started to scrub, Gibbs watched trying not to laugh at the fierce expression on her face. "Gee Jen, I havn't seen you this mad since Dinozzo called you 'Madame Director'" He teased her. He wished he hadn't said anything as she started scrubbing his hand particuly hard.
He winced but knew better than to say anything. After about 20 minutes she threw the sponge into the sink and turned the tap off, "I give up, I don't know how to un-glue us" She told her husband.
He looked at her with wide eyes,
"You're Joking" He said his voice sounding almost pleading
"I wish I was" She told him pulling their glued hands in front of his face and shaking them to show she was serious.
He looked at their hands and realised there was nothing they could do to get out of this mess tonight, With his free hand he picked up his phone and looked at the time, 0228.
"Lets get some sleep Jen, There is nothing we can do tonight" He told her
She glanced at their hands and knew he was right, "Ok, But we wake up early and figure this out cause I can't go into the office glued to you" She told him.
He smiled at his wife knowing that this wasn't fun for either of them, With his free hand he pulled her into a awkard hug and kissed the top of her head,
"I love you Jen" He told her
She slumped against him as he hugged her, "I love you to" She told him, Letting him lead the way to their bedroom.
The Next Day;
She woke up and found herself facing her husband their hands still glued together were lying in the middle of the bed, He looked at her then down at their hands,
"What are we going to do?" He asked her
"I really don't know" She told him
"How about we take today off and figure it out?" He suggested
She raised her eyebrows, "Leory Jethro Gibbs wanting to take a day off, Are you feeling alright" She joked
He laughed with her, "Well if you really want to go into work we can, But do you really want to hear Dinozzo when he see's us glued together, He will go on about it all day" He told her lifting up there glued hands.
She knew he was right, "Ok, I'll call Cynthina" She told him.
A few minutes later she had called and told Cynthia they both wouldn't be in.
"Do you think we should call Ducky?" She asked him
"Why?" He asked her
"Well, Lets face it Jethro we need help to get out of this mess" She told him
"Mmm, Let him call us. No doubt he will after he's talked to Palmer" He told her leaning in to kiss her.
She laughed but didn't protest, Instead she deepend their kiss.
Ducky walked into Autospy and walked over to his desk, He noticed that his cup was missing and turned to his Assitant.
"Mr Palmer, Have you seen my Coffee cup?" He asked
Palmer felt his cheeks flushing red as Ducky stared at him "No Doctor" He stammered
Ducky raised his eyebrows and fixed his Assitant with a look,
"But Agent Gibbs and The Director were here late yesterday after you went home, Maybe they know" Palmer said
Ducky had a amused smile on his face after Palmer had told him this, "Say no more Mr Palmer" He said heading for the lift to go to Jen's office, He had a feeling he would find them both there.
He was suprised to find out from Cynthina that neither Director Gibbs or Agent Gibbs would be in today. He walked down to the Bullpen but found that Tony and the rest of the The Team out.
He then decided to call Gibbs, After a few ring's Gibbs picked up.
"Gibbs"
"Ahh Jethro, I have been looking for you and our lovely Director" Ducky told him, He could hear Jen in the background asking who it was when Gibb's told her it was Ducky she demanded that she talk to him.
"Ducky?" She said
"Yes Dear?"
"Could you come over to the house? We need your help with something" She told him
He knew better than to ask and agreeded to be there soon.
Before he could knock on the door it was opened by not one but both of them, He looked up at them in suprise before he could say anything Jen tugged up the hands that were stuck together and gave Ducky a look.
Ducky couldn't help but laugh, "What happened?" He asked walking to the house and shuting the door behind him.
"It was all his fault" Jen said, At the same time as Gibbs said "It was all her fault"
Ducky nodded knowing that this was going to be a long story, But he was looking forward to hearing it.
