[Drabble] Something is missing
TITLE: Something is missing
AUTHOR: nicis_anatomy
CHARACTER: Jenny Shepard/Todd Gelfand (implied Jenny/Jethro)
GENRE: Het, General, Angst (?)
RATING: PG
WORD COUNT: 200
SUMMARY: Jenny likes Todd and she enjoys his company. But something (or someone?) is always missing ... Written for prompt #04 "Kiss" for drabble123 and challenge #036 "Guilt" for ncisdrabble100.
WARNINGS: English still isn't my native language (although I wish) and the story is not beta'd
DISCLAIMER: I don't own these characters (although I'd love to own Action Figure Gibbs), nor am I making any money from them. If I would Season 5 would have ended different.
~*~*~*~*
When they finally reached her front door, Jenny knew that the moment had come, when she no longer could procrastinate the unavoidable she'd expected to happen all evening; and the problem was that she didn't even know, if she wanted to procrastinate it.
Todd was a man every woman would love to have in her life, and Jenny felt lucky when she was with him; when they went out for dinner or spent the evening walking around, talking and enjoying each other's company.
He made her laugh and she liked talking to him. He was good looking, charming ... And still, something was missing.
She wasn't sure, if he felt it or if it was even fair to continue seeing him, but every time she looked into his eyes or felt his hand reaching out for her, she pushed the guilt away. Afterwards, though, it always returned making her feel bad.
"It was a nice day," Todd said, finally breaking the silence. Jenny hesitated, but then she nodded.
"It was."
Smiling she allowed him to kiss her for the first time, and his kiss was soft and sweet and everything Jenny had imagined, but all she could think of was Jethro.
- The End -
