What you fans of 'The Gibbs Project' have been waiting for: the date between Andy and Alice! This was suggested by 'head slap 99' and 'Herky Illiniwek'. Thank you, both of you, for suggesting this idea!
Anyway, I hope you fans like the story. Enjoy!

"So how are you getting to Alice's, then?"

Andy struggled with the zip on his hoodie. "Dunno. I was going to walk…" He sighed as he gave up. "Dad, could you help me with this?"

Gibbs put down his paper and coffee and stood up, walking over to Andy. He undid the zip before zipping the hoodie back up again easily. Andy smiled at him.

"Thanks."

"No problem." Gibbs picked his coffee up off the counter. "You sure about walking to Alice's?" He took a sip.

"I can take the bus?" Andy suggested. Gibbs sighed.

"I'll drop you off."

"You sure, Dad? I mean, Jessie…"

"Won't touch the stove unless instructed to. You remember what happened last time, don't you?"

Andy smirked. "Yeah, I do. That was funny though."

Gibbs smiled. "Yeah, I guess. Grab your gear, we're going."

Andy laughed. "Dad, I don't work for you. I'm not DiNozzo."

Gibbs grabbed his keys off the living room coffee table and put on his coat. "I never would've guessed, Andy."

"Probably wouldn't have anyway," Andy muttered. He shrank under Gibbs' glare. "I was kidding!"

"Just get out of the house." Gibbs opened the front door. Andy was about to walk out when they heard footsteps on the stairs.

"Daddy! Daddy! Where are you going?" Jessie asked as she skipped down the stairs.

"I'm dropping Andy off," Gibbs explained.

Jessie smirked. "Andy and Alice, sittin' in a tree, doing things they shouldn't be…" she sang.

"Continue that and I'll knock you into the next century," Andy threatened. He clutched the back of his head after feeling a stinging sensation. "Ow!"

"Don't threaten your sister," Gibbs scolded. "And Jessie, sing that again and you'll be over my knee. Got it?"

"Yes, Papa." She shuffled awkwardly on the step. "See you later, Andy."

"See you later, Jess." Andy saluted his sister before going to sit in the car. Gibbs nodded at Jessie before walking out and closing the door behind him. Jessie sighed.

"I wonder if I can work the stove properly this time…"

Gibbs pulled up outside the Miller residence. "You ready Andy?" He looked over at his son.

Andy looked up at the sound of his name. "Yeah, I guess." Andy checked his pockets. "I've got cash for a taxi home, for food and for the bus there with Alice. We should be fine." Andy checked his hair in the rear-view mirror.

"Hey!" Gibbs pulled the mirror back into its original position. "You look fine."

"You sure?" Andy asked.

"Yeah."

"So if Alice out-dresses me by, like, a mile, then it'll be all your fault?"

"Just get out of the car."

Andy smirked as he opened the door and got out. As soon as he shut the door, Gibbs rolled down the window.

"Have a good time, Andy!" he called out before driving off. Andy waved at the retreating car before turning to Alice's house. He took a deep breath. This was it.

Alice checked herself once more in the mirror.

"You look fine, Al."

Alice turned to see Brandon standing at her bedroom door, smiling at her. She smiled back at him. "You think?"

"I know."

The doorbell rang. Alice ran out of her room. "I'll get it!" she cried.

Andy stood on the front porch, nervous about what was going to happen. Would it go well? Would it fail? Would they make a good couple? Heck no! They were best friends, for goodness sake! Best friends couldn't like each other in that way, could they…?

Andy was brought out of his thoughts by someone opening the front door, and he gasped.

Alice had curled her lightly, so the curls hung just by her shoulders. Her lips had a touch of lip gloss, and there was a tiny bit of pink eye shadow on her eyelids. Her outfit consisted of a pair of dark jeans and a flowing pink blouse with pink flats. She smiled at Andy.

"You like it?"

"You look beautiful," Andy whispered. Alice smiled at him and blushed as she took in his outfit.

Andy had actually brushed and combed his hair, and it seemed like he had gelled it slightly as well. He was wearing a white t-shirt, which had brown lettering on it, and a green hoodie on top with a pair of dark jeans and green trainers. He raised an eyebrow at her.

"What do you think of mine, then?" he asked as Alice shut the door behind her and they both walked off the front porch.

"You look… cute."

Andy grimaced as he led Alice towards the bus stop. "Cute? What does that make you in pink then?"

Alice glared at him. "Not a word about this to the guys."

"Gotcha, Barbie."

"Quit it with the teasing, Andy."

"No way!"

"Why not?"

"You said I looked 'cute'! Not handsome, 'cute'!"

"Would you rather I call you the adorable teddy bear, then?"

Andy froze and blushed. "Uh…"

Alice smirked. "I might as well. You're extremely huggable." She blushed when she realized what she had said and turned away from him. "Oh look, there's the bus."

Andy's blush faded as he realized it really was the bus pulling up at the stop. He smiled at Alice as they got on and sat down. "So, what do you want for dinner?"

Alice chewed on her chip idly. "So, what film are we seeing?"

Andy looked up from his drink and took the straw out of his mouth. "Huh?"

"I said, what film are we seeing?"

Andy shrugged. "How about we see what's there?"

Alice nodded. "Alright then. There should be something good on." She picked up another chip.

"Yeah, only if we get there in time. If you keep eating like this, you won't be home til next week!" Andy joked. He picked up his burger and bit into it as Alice glared at him. He smirked. "The truth hurts." He ducked as a chip flew at his head, but winced when the next one hit his face.

"So does a chip in the face."

Andy looked up at the sign which showed the list of films showing that day. All of them were interesting in one way or another, but he wasn't sure which one they should see. Alice stood behind him, tapping her foot impatiently.

"Well?" she asked.

"Can't choose. Give me a little longer."

Alice sighed and decided to look around the place when she heard two familiar voices behind her. She span to see two people she thought would be unlikely walking into the cinema.

"Crap!"

"No, I don't think there's a film with that name, Alice."

"Hide!"

"Wha…?"

Alice pushed Andy behind a pillar and hid behind him. Andy stared at Alice in confusion.

"What the…?"

"Shhh!" Alice shushed him before pointing around the pillar. Andy frowned and looked where she was pointing before gasping.

"What are they doing here?" he whispered furiously. Alice shrugged.

"Maybe we should follow them?" she suggested.

"Oh yeah, and get into a movie we're not allowed to see. Smart idea." Andy looked back over at the two NCIS agents that were currently standing in front of the board Andy had been looking at.

"So, what movie shall we see then, my beautiful Ziva?" Tony asked.

Ziva scanned the board. "I have never seen the Lion King before…"

"Never seen the Lion King?" Tony repeated, astonished. Ziva shook her head.

"Well then, let's go!" Tony took Ziva's hand and dragged her up to the front desk, asking for two tickets to see The Lion King in 3D before buying popcorn and two drinks. Andy and Alice snuck out from behind the pillar.

"Are we gonna follow them?" Andy asked.

"Heck yeah! I've gotta give Abby some good gossip!" Alice whispered loudly before dragging Andy to the counter. "Two tickets to The Lion King in 3D, please."

The woman at the counter looked up at them. "You two are really going to watch The Lion King in 3D?"

"Of course." Alice leaned on the counter threateningly. "Is there a problem with that?"

"No, no, of course not." The woman turned and quickly printed off the tickets. "Here you go, two tickets to The Lion King in 3D." She handed the tickets to Alice. "And here are your 3D glasses." She handed Andy the glasses.

Alice smirked as she took the tickets, and Andy took the glasses. "Thank you!" She skipped towards the popcorn counter with Andy trailing behind her.

"You can be really threatening sometimes, you know," Andy pointed out.

"I know!" Alice sung as she ordered the popcorn and coke for them. "It's all a part of me being your girlfriend."

"Girlfriend?" Andy froze. Alice turned to face him.

"What, you don't want me to be your girlfriend?" she asked.

"No, no, I want you to be my girlfriend. I'm just surprised, that's all." Andy smiled. "Besides, I want to be your boyfriend too."

Alice blushed. "We should be going in now…"

Andy blushed when he realized what he'd said and nodded. "Uh… yeah. We should." He followed Alice into the screen room they were seeing the film in, showing the security guard their tickets.

As soon as they got in, they realized there were so many people in there that they wouldn't be able to find the couple they were looking for. Alice sighed.

"So much for 'Let's give Abby some good gossip!'" Andy whispered into Alice's ear. She scanned the room for two spare seat, and spotted some right in the middle. She nudged Andy.

"I think I found us some seats. Come on." She pulled Andy over to where the seats were, dodging and climbing over people who were already seated and knocking over people's popcorn by accident. A few people growled at them, but Alice just ignored them. Andy just apologized as he was pulled helplessly through the crowd of people. When they eventually got to their seats, they had angered at least twenty or so people.

"Alice, you could've been a little politer," Andy pointed out.

"…It's a bit late now, isn't it?" she replied sheepishly. Andy shook his head.

"You're unbelievable." He ripped open the plastic that covered the 3D glasses and perched them on his head before opening Alice's for her and handing them over.

"Thanks," Alice said as she took the glasses, before handing Andy the popcorn and drinks. Andy raised an eyebrow at Alice. She frowned at him.

"What?"

"There's only one box of popcorn."

"What, can't you share?"

Andy sighed and handed the popcorn back to Alice. "Might as well have got one drink to share as well," he muttered.

"What?" Alice asked.

"Nothing!" Andy lied. "Oh look, the film's starting!" He pulled on his 3D glasses to avoid the glare he was getting from Alice. Alice shook her head at him and pulled on the glasses.

I better enjoy this film.

The pair didn't notice the couple sitting behind them…

Andy and Alice laughed as they walked hand in hand out of the cinema, 3D glasses perched on their heads talking about the film they'd just seen.

"I'd forgotten just how awesome Lion King was," Andy commented.

"Yeah. I love that movie!" Alice exclaimed. Heads turned to look at them, but the pair didn't notice. They were too busy having fun and laughing over the movie they saw for their date.

"I love Timon and Pumbaa!" Alice said suddenly.

"Who doesn't?" Andy asked. "They're awesome!" He cleared his throat. "Hakuna Matata, what a wonderful phrase…"

"Hakuna Matata, ain't no passing craze…" Alice sang. They smiled before singing it loudly as a duet.

"It means no worries, for the rest of your days
It's our problem-free
Philosophy,
Hakuna Matata!"

"It's a shame we didn't find Tony and Ziva, eh?" Andy asked.

"Yeah, well, they must've enjoyed the film. Ziva must have loved it," Alice replied.

"Yes, I did."

The couple froze, and turned to face two adults standing behind them. They gulped.

"Tony… Ziva… what a surprise…" Andy said nervously.

"Were you spying on us?" Tony asked.

"No!" Andy and Alice answered quickly. When Ziva raised an eyebrow at them, they both blushed.

"We were curious…" Alice started. Tony smirked.

"Yes, well at least you enjoyed the film," Ziva pointed out. Alice narrowed her eyes at them.

"You weren't really here on a date, were you?" she asked. Tony and Ziva looked away. Andy frowned.

"Who told you to?" he asked.

"Gibbs," the couple replied. Andy growled out of frustration.

"Why?"

"He didn't want you to sneak into another R-rated film," Tony admitted.

"That was your fault. I was bored, and you wanted a film buddy, so you dragged me along."

Ziva glared at Tony. "Really?" Tony flinched away sheepishly. Alice smirked.

"Yeah, well, Andy and I better get going. We wouldn't want to get involved in your lovers' spat, would we?" she said. "Come on, Andy." She pulled on his arm and led him out of the cinema.

As soon as they got outside, they both started laughing.

"I fear for Tony's life now," Andy laughed. "He has Ziva and death to worry about now!"

"Yeah!" Alice agreed. Andy slipped his hand into Alice's.

"Shall we?" he asked. Alice smiled.

"Indeed, we shall."

The couple started their walk back home.

When Andy and Alice finally reached Alice's home, an hour had already passed since the film had ended. They sighed as they realized that the lights were still on in the house. Alice turned to Andy.

"That was a great date, Andy," she smiled. "Unusual, but great."

"Yeah, it was," Andy agreed. He smiled at Alice. There was an awkward silence between the two.

"So…" Andy started.

"You wanna let go of my hand?" Alice asked. Andy blushed and quickly let go.

"Sorry."

Alice giggled. "Chill, Andy." She hugged him. "Thanks for the date."

Andy hugged her tightly. "It's cool." As they pulled away, their eyes connected. Alice tilted her head back and Andy locked his lips with hers. They stood there, kissing softly, for a few seconds before they broke apart. Alice was in a daze.

"Well, uh…"

Andy raised an eyebrow in amusement. "Goodnight?"

Alice nodded. "Yeah, goodnight, Andy." She walked up to the porch slowly, letting her brain comprehend everything that happened. As soon as she opened the door, she turned to face Andy. She waved at him before walking in and closing the door behind her. Andy waved back at her and smiled.

Alice slid down the door, shock evident on her face. "H-he just kissed me?"

Andy walked down the street a little before letting his emotions overtake him. He punched the air with his fist a cheered.

And that night, both teenagers slept peacefully with smiles on their faces.

I hope you liked the sweet ending, people. Please review and tell me what you think, and don't forget - I'm still open to ideas for one-shots!
