thnks for the support. To be honest, the good review are what keep me going :P


Being You

'Katie, talk to me'

'Go away DiNozzo' Kate spat out at him. Tony was currently chasing after Kate as she walked down the sidewalk outside of NCIS.

'Come on... Look, I'm not sorry for what I said, I meant it'

'Yeah right, and you don't have a new girlfriend every week'

'Kate, that was low'

'What? I just told the truth. How bout you try that once in a while?'

Tony stopped chasing after her and just stood there, not believeing that she had the nerve to say that he never told the truth.

Kate noticed this too for she stopped a couple of feet ahead and turned back to stare at him.

'Wha..'

'Don't say anything. I told you the truth this time, and every time I talk to you. I never lie to you Kate. Stretch the truth... yeah, but never lie. What I said to you, I don't say to every girl, contrary to what you believe. If you think I never tell the truth, then believe what you will' With that Tony turned around and headed back to NCIS.

Kate was still standing in that same spot ten minutes earlier. She only realised what she was doing when some guy came up to her and asked if she was okay.

After walking around for about another hour, Kate decided it was time to go and face Tony.

After Tony had walked into the squad room, he had waited for Kate to follow. When she didn't come he sat down at his desk and started on his mountain of paperwork while ignoring Gibbs' glare. Women aren't the only ones who can do two things at once, He thought to himself, trying to lighten the mood in his head.

Flashback about half an hour ago

'Kate?' Tony asked stepping up to her desk.

'What Tony?'

'Can you come here for a minute?'

'Sure'

Tony led the way over to where the stairs were leading to MTAC and the directors office. Once on the other side of them, Tony turned around to Kate to find her watching him questionably.

'What's wrong Tony?'

'Nothing Kate, It's just that... I think I love you

Nothing was said for a few seconds and Tony was getting worried.

'Kate?'

Kate looked up at him sharply, sending hate his way. Tony was taken back by this reaction. Sure, he knew it was a possibility for her to react this way but he was sure she would have been a bit happy.

'How dare you'

'Kate?' Tony repeated, trying to calm her down.

'How dare you think you can hit on every thing that moves with estrogen and then come and tell me you love me. You know what Tony? Sometime you just don't think' and with Kate stormed out of the building with Tony chasing her.

Flashback over

Kate walked into the squad room to find Tony sitting alone behind his desk, still with a mountain of paperwork infront of him.

'Tony?'

Tony visably jumped in his chair. It took all the stength Kate had not to laugh out loud. Tony looked up at Kate, not with hate in his eyes, but disappointment.

'Tony, before you tell me to leave you alone, I just need to say this. I have been doing alot of thinking and I think I know why I reacted the way I did' Kate took a breath and change her stance ' I realised that it would have hurt so much if I had believed you when you said you love me and then you take it back or cheat on me. Tony, I love you too, but if you don't think that you are ready for a solid relationship with me, then tell me now before I get hurt anymore'

Tony had mixed emotions over the past minute. Disappointment, happiness, sadness.

'Kate, I love you and I have for a while now. I am ready to give everything up for you. I don't want to hurt you and I won't if I can help it'

'Thank you Tony'

'For what?'

'For being you'

'Haha, no worries'

Tony walked around his desk and over to Kate who was still standing in the same spot. Tony reached out for her arm and kissed her. It wasn't slutty but it also wan't grandma-ish. It was perfect, just like they were.
