Chapter 3 Interview
Lindsay's POV
It's Wednesday and I'm running late to my brother's office and I mean really late. I was nervously tapping my foot in the elevator on my way up to the correct floor. I had stopped for my lunch as I normally do. Then I got stuck in traffic. As soon as the elevator doors opened on the correct floor I ran out. Hermione, my brother's secretary, looked up from what she was doing and looked at me.
" You're late," she said.
" I know," I said.
Hermione touched the phone to com my brother.
" Mr. Potter," Hermione said.
" What," I hear my brother ask angrily.
" Your sister is here," Hermione said.
" Send her in," I hear my brother say.
" Right away," Hermione said then she ends it.
I start to walk to his office.
" Good luck," I hear Hermione say.
I just waved and kept walking. My brother is not a force to be messed with. He used to be sweet, kind, caring, and loving until he found out his girlfriend at the time had been cheating on him. She was a school mate of mine but I don't talk to her anymore. Once I reached the door to my brother's office I knocked.
" Come in," I hear my brother say.
I entered and boy did my brother glare at me. I ignore it since I expected it. I see Ginny on my brother's couch.
" Good to see you Ginny," I said.
" It's good to see you too Lindsay," Ginny said.
I smiled and sat in my brother's chair.
" How have you been big brother," I asked.
" I've been well," Harry said.
He still glared at me. Ginny looked shocked that I was the sister of a billionaire. Even though technically I do have some ownership in the company I don't do much. I looked at the picture on his desk. It was from when we were kids.
All of the sudden the phone on his desk rings before my brother can ask me what I'm doing there. My brother loves to not look suspicious. I answer as I see it's Hermione. I put it on speaker.
" What is it Hermione," I asked.
" There's someone here to see you Ms. Potter," Hermione says.
She only calls me that when it is for business.
" Did they say their name," I asked.
" He said his name is Nathan Jones," Hermione said.
Wonderful the Probie followed and now while know my background.
" Rule number thirty-five always watch the watchers," I muttered.
I looked up at Harry. He gave a small nod.
" Let him in Hermione," I said then ended the call.
" Who's Nathan Jones little sis," Harry asked.
" A new Probie at work," I said.
Then there was a knock at the door.
" Come in," Harry and I said.
The door opened and Nathan Jones walks in. He looks around in awe. I decide to play with him a bit.
" What can we do for you Mr. Jones," I asked in the voice I use for business.
He looked at me.
" Ummmm..... Well you see," Nathan starts to say.
" Yes," I said leaning forward and putting my arms in a business like manner on the desk.
Harry is smirking at the way Nathan is acting. Ginny just raises an eyebrow at me. All of the sudden the phone on Harry's desk rings. I answer it.
" Hello," I said.
" Where's your brother," I hear my mom ask.
" Hello sweetheart how are you? Oh I'm fine Mom how are you," I said.
" I'm sorry sweetheart I was expecting your brother to answer," I hear Mom say.
" It's fine Mom. Why do you want Harry," I asked.
" It seems he found himself a girl," I hear my mother say.
" Really," I asked.
" Yes. Your father and I would like to meet her," I hear my mother say.
" I'd like to meet her as well," I said.
" Good you can bring the boy you're dating with you," I hear my mother say.
" Wait what," I asked.
" It's in the paper," I hear my mother say.
I picked up the newspaper that was on my brother's desk and looked at it. Sure enough there was a picture of me driving with Nathan. I sighed.
" Mom that's not a boyfriend. He's a co-worker of mine. His car wouldn't start so I offered him a ride home. I'm still single Mom," I said.
" Lindsay you need to start dating again and settle down. Start a family with someone," I hear my mother say.
" Mom please. I'll pass the message to Harry but please let me live my life," I said.
" Alright. Love you," I hear my mother say.
" Love you too Mom. Bye," I said before hanging up.
" Thanks for not telling her I was here," Harry said.
" No problem," I said.
" Lindsay I wanted to talk about the newspaper," Nathan said.
" I kinda figured. Go wait for me at Hermione's desk I'll meet you there," I said.
With that he left.
" Which rule of your boss's would you be breaking," Harry asked.
" None at the moment but according to the newspaper I'd be breaking rule number twelve," I said.
Harry nodded then looked at Ginny.
" You start Monday at nine. Don't be late," Harry said.
Ginny nodded and left.
" Why were you late," Harry asked.
" I know there's no good excuse but I got stuck in traffic and I stopped for my lunch," I said.
Harry nodded knowing that if I'm late I usually don't mean to be.
" What did Mom want," Harry asked.
" Her and Dad want to meet this new girl you're with," I said.
" I'm working on it," Harry said.
" You shouldn't have made that bet with Dad," I said.
" And you should settle down," Harry said.
" I love my job Harry and I don't want to be weighed down by a family. I just can't give up my job," I said.
" When we were kids you always said you wanted to marry and have kids," Harry said.
" I also said I wanted to be a artist, a singer, a veterinarian, and a mechanic. I never became any of those things because I realized I wanted excitement in my life," I said.
" Is this all because of Rudy," Harry asked.
" No I just like my job. Now if that's all I'll be taking my leave," I said then walked straight out of his office.
I met Nathan by Hermione's desk and signaled for him to follow. He did and we both went into the elevator.
" So what was up with the newspaper," Nathan asked.
" We got caught alone together nothing more. It's some writer who wanted to write a story and they got one. There's not an us and even if we did have feelings for each other it would break rule number twelve," I said.
" Never date a co-worker," Nathan said.
" Now you're learning Probie," I said.
The elevator finally got to the first floor. I quickly got out and ran to my car. As I drove I turned the radio on and heard they were going to play " Sad Song" by We The Kings ft. Elena Coats. I sang along to the song.

You and I, we're like fireworks
And symphonies exploding in the sky
With you, I'm alive
Like all the missing pieces of my heart,
they finally collide
So stop time right here in the moonlight
'Cause I don't ever wanna close my eyes
Without you, I feel broke
Like I'm half of a whole
Without you, I've got no hand to hold
Without you, I feel torn
Like a sail in a storm
Without you, I'm just a sad song
I'm just a sad song
With you, I fall
It's like I'm leaving all my past
and silhouettes up on the wall
With you, I'm a beautiful mess
It's like we're standing hand and
hand with all our fears up on the edge
So stop time right here in the moonlight
'Cause I don't ever wanna close my eyes
Without you, I feel broke
Like I'm half of a whole
Without you, I've got no hand to hold
Without you, I feel torn
Like a sail in a storm
Without you, I'm just a sad song
You're the perfect melody
The only harmony I wanna hear
You're my favourite part of me
With you standing next to me
I've got nothing to fear
Without you, I feel broke
Like I'm half of a whole
Without you, I've got no hand to hold
Without you, I feel torn
Like a sail in a storm
Without you, I'm just a sad song
Without you, I feel broke
Like I'm half of a whole
Without you, I've got no hand to hold
Without you, I feel torn
Like a sail in a storm
Without you, I'm just a sad song, I'm just a sad song
I reached my apartment building then I went to my apartment. Once there I went straight to my room. I landed on my bed, after I changed into pajamas, and cried. I cried because I feel for Rudy. I cried because I didn't want to break any more rules. I cried because Harry was right.
I didn't want to settle down because of Rudy. After Rudy I've been to scared to date. I want to settle down but I can't. Because of Rudy I'm scared to have kids. Rudy dumped me when I was pregnant.
I had suffered a miscarriage while I was on duty. I knew I was pregnant but I didn't want to tell anyone. Gibbs was there for me when I miscarried my daughter, Melinda Lillian Potter, and he got a grave stone for her. I couldn't be more greatful to my boss. I still cry for the loss of my daughter.
I didn't hear my door unlocked so when I heard the door open I pulled a gun on the person.
" It's ok kiddo," I hear my boss.
I quickly put my gun down. Gibbs pulls me into his arms. I cried into his chest.
" If you want to break rule number twelve you can," he said.
I looked at him in shock.
" I've been watching the way you look at Jones. He looks at you the same way. If it stops you from doing the stuff you have been then do it. Break rule number twelve," Gibbs said.
" Thank you," was all I could say.
" You know everyone but Jones is hear," Gibbs said.
" Movie night," I asked.
" Oh yes and a very special movie night at that," Tony said as he barged into my room.
" Out of my room DiNozzo," I said as I got up and charged at him.
I saw everyone in my living room. I ended up picking the movie. I had picked the Chronicles of Narnia. Gibbs held me in his arms as if I was his daughter and Abby's head was in my lap. For once I'm not afraid to start over.
