When I started it was not supposed to turn into creepy!Tim, I swear! Hope you like it anyway.
You shall not covet your neighbour’s house; you shall not covet your neighbour’s wife, or male or female slave, or ox, or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbour.
Tim was not an envious person per se. In fact, it took him by surprise that he envies Tony - for anything, really, much less his relationship to Gibbs.
At first Tim didn't know the actual extend of Tony and Gibbs' relationship. He'd thought they had a good rapport at work; shared whole insights of a case with just one glance because of their experience; were good pals, united in their inability to switch off from work. Tim was certainly envious of that on occasion.
When he saw Gibbs pressing Tony into the wall in a rarely used corridor near the storage area, kissing Tony as if he might die if he stopped, the envy in Tim reared up its ugly head with a vengeance. He had to duck behind the next corner and take a few deep breaths, but the envy didn't lessen.
In fact, it increased over the next weeks. He noticed little glances and gestures between the two men that had been hidden from him before. And with every private smile from Tony and every slight twinkle in Gibbs' eyes over Tony's antics, Tim's envy grew. It made him surly and mean. It was like an out-of-body experience sometimes. He actually cringed at some of the things he said and did to Tony, even though he'd rather have done the complete opposite and cradled him to his chest, proclaiming to Gibbs that he couldn't have Tony because he was Tim's.
His mother had raised him well. He grew up with the Bible, and while he did not practice religion these days, he had always believed in the rightness of the words. But now, he wishes nothing more than to trade places with Gibbs. You shall not covet your neighbour's wife. Whoever thought he might lust after his "neighbour's husband" instead?
Tim was not an envious person per se. But deep down, Tim had to admit that Tony's relationship to Gibbs made him envious like hell. For now, he had it under control. But sometimes… he was scared as hell of what he might do if the envy in him won out in the end.
