Summary: “Quit cheating.”
A Stranger Is a Friend You Haven't Met Yet
“Quit cheating,” said Tony’s voice, from the living room, as Gibbs reheated a pot of soup.
“I’m not cheating,” protested McGee. “You’re just slow.”
“I’m deliberate.”
“We’re playing Slap Jack, it’s not like there’s strategy.”
“Well, I-”
“Dinner’s up!” Gibbs called, interrupting.
He heard muffled complaints along with the shuffling of feet in the next room, and turned from the stove with the soup to see Tony, even with his bandaged wrist, help McGee and his sprained ankle to sit before claiming his own chair.
Gibbs suppressed a smile, and tried to remember when his boys had been strangers.
THE END
