Gibbs walked into the lab and watched her take her hair down. She shrugged into her coat and lifted her hair free. He had promised himself he wouldn't do this. All her flirting was just Abby. She couldn't change who she was anymore than he could change who he was. She turned and noticed him standing there. All he said was, "Abs."

I know it's late, I know you're weary
I know your plans don't include me
still here we are, both of us lonely
longing for shelter from all that we see
why should we worry, no one will care, girl
look at the stars now so far away

we've got tonight
who needs tomorrow?
We've got tonight baby
why don't you stay?

Abby looked at Gibbs from across her lab. She remembered the first time she saw him. She remembered their first meeting. She also remembered Rule # 12. Looking into his eyes, she knew there were some rules that were made to be broken.

Deep in my soul, I've been so lonely
all of my hopes, fading away
I've longed for love, like everyone else does

Abby moved towards him and he led her out the building to his car. Not a word was spoken as he drove them to his house.

We've got tonight
who needs tomorrow?
Let's make it last
let's find a way
turn out the light
come take my hand now
we've got tonight baby
why don't you stay?
