Setting the now empty glass down, (Y/n) filled it back to the brim with more bourbon. She took a swallow of the strong drink letting it slowly run down her throat, the buzz she originally wanted was gone two glasses ago, now she was flat out drunk. (Y/n) knew she needed to stop but her emotions were too much to handle when she was sober, maybe a walk will help, she thought. Grabbing her glass of bourbon, (Y/n) made her way out the door and started a long peaceful walk down the sidewalk.

'Dose he like me?'

'Would he break the rules to be with me?'

'His lips look so soft.'

'I wonder what it would be like if we- '

"(Y/n), what are you doing here this late?" Her thoughts and fantasies were cut short when a blurry face appeared in front of hers, blinking a few times it was still a bit blurry but the voice sounded very familiar.

"I'm on a walk to clear my head." She slurred terribly stumbling to the side a bit, a hand shot out and gripped her shoulder to steady her.

"How much have you had to drink?" The mans voice sounded concerned, her eyes darted around trying to figure out who's front porch she was on.

"A few more puppy fulls, I love puppies." The man chuckled at her randomness and lead her into his house. (Y/n) felt very comfortable in the care of this man, she knew she knew him but she just couldn't put her finger on it. "Oh and Gibbs! I love him too!" The man raised his brow and brought her glass of water, taking the glass of bourbon away.

"But he's your boss, and that would break rule #12." He stated without emotion, (Y/n) drank the water scrunching her nose at the tasteless drink.

"Yeah but I cant help it, he's just so handsome and perfect... and handsome, can't forget that one." She sighed dramatically with a huge smile on her face making him snort, (Y/n) finished off her water then gave him the empty glass.

"Is that right? Well, I know that he thinks you are quit beautiful yourself." (Y/n) lightly blushed and giggled,

"Awww really." When the man nodded (Y/n) squealed, pure joy rushing through her veins. The man sat down next to her with a smile, after calming her down a bit he convinced her to get some sleep. (Y/n) agreed and leaned into the man beside her, he wrapped an arm around her and she let out a yawn. "Good night, ummm..."

"Jethro."

"That's funny, you have the same name Gibbs."

The next morning (Y/n) woke up with her head pounding, she sat up rubbing her aching body part. When she opened her eyes confused didn't seem like the right word, more like baffled as to how she was in her bosses house, sleeping on his couch. A grumble came from the couch she had sat up on, she looked down and saw something that made her heart falter. Gibbs sleepy eyes peering up at her and a impression of her body on his chest. (Y/n) leaped off the couch and groaned at her achyness before apologizing to her boss profusely.

"(Y/n) its okay, you did nothing wrong." Gibbs said sitting up, running a hand through his silver hair.

"How did I get here?" She asked confused, Gibbs explained to her how she showed up at his door heavily intoxicated, he couldn't leave her there or let her walk back home by herself, so she spent the night. (Y/n) felt her face immediately turn red in embarrassment, then worry struck. "I didn't say anything weird or embarrassing did I?"

Gibbs smiled and looked at the floor, making (Y/n) panic slightly. "Oh my gosh! I did, didn't I! I'm so sorry boss, it won't happen again." The smile faded from his face as he looked back into her eyes, there was a hint of sadness hidden beneath those crystal blue eyes of his and she felt a tug on her heart. "What did I say?" She whispered and Gibbs took a deep breath.

"You said you love me." Her heart stopped, did she really confess to her boss while she was drunk. Anger and fear of rejection filled her body, the only thing that kept her tears from falling was his next question. "Did you mean it?"

There was no point in lying, he would just see through it so with her head hanging she gave him a nod.

"Good." His words surprised her and her head snapped up to meet his gaze, Gibbs stood up looking down at her, their bodies only inches away from the other. "That means, I can do this." Gibbs leaned in placing a soft kiss to her lips, it was short but very sweet. (Y/n)s eyes fluttered open as he pulled away, the shock on her face and hundreds of questions in her eyes made him smile. And he knew how to answer every question she had with four words.

"I love you too."
