Summary:  One morning Tony finds a surprise on his desk.
Author's Note:  Written for the ncisdrabble100 challenge: Heaven and Hell.

Tony rounded the corner and stopped short.  On the middle of his desk sat a jelly donut with a cup of coffee next to it, keeping it company.  He approached it cautiously.  It looked fine, more than fine.  Fried to a perfect golden brown, its sugar coating glittered in the light and just a hint of red filling peeked out the side.    

“You gonna eat it or stare at it?”  

“Boss?”  Tony tore his gaze from the donut to look at Gibbs.  “This is from you?”

“It’s two years today, DiNozzo.” The tone was brusque, but without any heat behind it.  “Don’t make me regret it.”

Tony wasn’t sure if it was hiring him or the uncharacteristic gesture of buying him a snack that Gibbs was implying he might regret.  Knowing Gibbs it was probably both.  Either way he didn’t care.  Sinking into his chair he picked up the donut and took a bite.  He’d just closed his eyes to revel in its heavenly delight when there was a sharp slap to the back of his head.

“We got a dead marine.  Let’s go.”

Tony grabbed his backpack, the donut and the coffee.  Life couldn’t get any sweeter than this.

Just messing with you!

A Ducky when he looked like Ilya Kuryakin would be awesome to play with. *Cue Captain Jack*

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

I alluded to it at least. Twice. That's not good enough?

OMG, I can so picture Ducky rambling on to Tony about Tony's obvious attraction to Gibbs and telling him a similar story about when he was younger and attracted to his older, more experienced boss (a certain Captain...)

[mad-jaks.livejournal.com]

I know you have sweetie and I'm very grateful for both of them, believe me :D

TOny would run a mile from that conversation unless he couldn't because they were trapped underground or something with Gibbs lying there nearby:

Ducky (Finally losing patience with Tony's constant fidgetting and continual glances over at the unconscious body of their boss): Oh really Tony! Why don't you just go over there and hold his hand? It's not like he can complain after all and I shan't look. I swear.

oh yes- that's perfect. Gibbs was hurt, but Ducky's checked him over and he's fine but needs his rest and Tony's all worried but trying not to be and Ducky rambles on about how once he was stuck in a collapsed cave with his boss, a man he admired greatly...

Getting stuck in a cave with Jack would be awesome - there'd be sex and fireside stories (about getting stuck in caves) and sex and campfire singing and did I mention there'd be sex? :D

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

well, once he came back from the dead, because you know he'd have done something heroic before being trapped in there

[mad-jaks.livejournal.com]

Coming back form the dead is a good excuse for 'You saved my life! You're my hero! sex - especially if the doctor is young and cute and blonde :D

Although Ducky would never be crass enough to admit as much to Tony. But he'd say just enough for Tony to jump to the inevitable conclusion.

[mad-jaks.livejournal.com]

There would be much clearing of his throat and discreet coughing fits

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

which would be immediately followed by much blushing by Tony...

[mad-jaks.livejournal.com]

blushing Tony gripping Gibbs jacket collar tightly and leaning in and begging him BEGGING him to wake up NOW!!!!!! Please, dear god, Boss... Save me?

Ducky gets that look a lot. I loved in S1 when we learn Gerald actually works with earplugs in so he doesn't have to listen

*VBG*

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

although, as a result of that, I've never understood the massive #s of Ducky/Gerald stories out there.

I love Palmer and his absolute respect and interest in Ducky and his stories

It's usually as a random pairing mentioned in Gibbs/DiNozzo stories. Although sometimes they are more center stage. NOT my cup of tea
