On nights like these, it's easy for Gibbs to see why he fell so hard for Tony. And disappointing to know that he'd wasted so much time.

'Well, you always were stubborn, Jethro' Gibbs smiled, hearing Shannon's voice as clear as if she were standing in the room.

Tony looked up just then, frowning in confusion. "You do realize that this is a scary movie, right? Meaning its not funny. Well, it's not supposed to be. Though I do often find the ridiculousness of most of the situations in these types of movies pretty hilarious."

Shaking his head at his lover's small diatribe, strangely reminded of McGee when he was talking about his computers, Gibbs leaned down and kissed Tony. Pulling back , he smiled softly at the happy look on his lover's face.

"Mmm. that was nice. So what were you thinking about?"

"Shannon."

"O-kay. You might need to elaborate a bit there Gibbs."

Settling more deeply into the couch, pulling Tony in closer, Gibbs sighed, "I was just thinking about all the time we wasted getting here. Most of it my fault."

"Gibbs-"

"I know, I know." Gibbs interrupted, forestalling the familiar argument, "Anyway, she used to tell me I was as stubborn as a dog with a bone, be it a good bone or one rotten to the core. And she always had fun poking at me when I had one of my 'lightbulb moments', as she called them. Said she could always see it in my face when I finally got a clue.

"I wish I could have met her. She sounds like a real firecracker."

"Oh she was. I used to tell her she was as fiery as her hair was red. I think you two would've hit it off immediately. "

"She'd have to be a little fiery, she caught you after all."

Chuckling, Gibbs snuggled closer to Tony. "I guess so. So are we gonna watch the movie or talk all night?"

Moving quickly to sit astride Gibbs' lap, Tony replied, "We don't have to watch the movie or talk. Besides, I can do a lot more with this mouth than talk."

Pulling Tony down for a deep kiss, Gibbs realized, not for the first time, just how lucky he was. Tony wasn't threatened by Shannon's memory, often encouraging Gibbs to share his memories of both Shannon and Kelly rather than hide them away. But he didn't push or pry when Gibbs changed the subject, knowing that his lover could only talk about them for so long before the pain was too much. "I need a lot less talking Dinozzo, and a whole lot more action."

Flipping them over so that he was on top of Tony' writhing body, Gibbs took Tony's mouth in a another deep kiss, devouring him in every way possible. Soon the room was filled with the sounds of moans and whimpers, a few screams too, and not all of it was coming from the movie still playing on the television.
