Everything was the same as she had left it.

There was a message on her answering service from Gibbs, reminding her not to come into work for the remainder of the week. There was also a friendly suggestion that she speak to one of the trauma counselors at the lab, but it was given with the expectation that she would refuse.

She glanced at the door, but it was silent.

Might as well stay busy. Who knows if.... she cut the thought off, changed into comfortable clothes, and began cleaning her kitchen.

There's a sudden thump outside, followed by a muffled curse.








Someone starts pounding on the door.

He's disheveled and bleary-eyed, the scruffiest he's ever looked; one fist still raised to take aim at the door.

"Not too late t'wish ya a happy birthday, am I, aingeal?"

Actually, it's probably an understatement.

"Been runnin' 'bout a day now for work. Finished up th' job, made for th' airport, caught th' first flight out, gave th' cabbie this address, an' here I am."

"Go dtachta an diabhal thĂș!"
May the devil choke you!

Murphy is too tired and too stressed to take this well.

"This how ya welcome all th' tourists, then? Or am I just luckier than most?"

"Since 'bout a minute before ya smashed me into th' wall, that's fuckin' when."

Followed by a short laugh at Sara's comment.

"Meant t' do it at Christmas. Decided I couldn't wait that long, figured her birthday was a good time.

He shrugs.

"Not m'fault work got a bit hectic."

"...Suppose I can forgive ya this time."

He turns towards Sara. "An' what's he goin' on about, then?"

He manages not to laugh until after they close the door.

Barely.

"I'll keep that in mind, then."

He nods. "Lead th' way, aingeal."

"Was in a bit of a rush t'make it here. Sad t'say, what ya see is what I brought."

A nod, followed by a rather long yawn.

"Sorry." Sheepish grin as he speaks.

Another nod as he lets himself be steered in the right direction.




By the time Sara returns, there is a naked (but clean) detective lying on her bed, legs hanging over the side.
