Opening Old Wounds: Tony fic

Authors note : The team has a case where there is a petty officer who dies but she is found in a similar manner to the way that Tony's mom did so old memories and feelings resurface that he hasn't dealt with. Had this just pop into my head and don't know if anyone ever used the idea . Thanks dustytiger for the listening .

It was a normal routine Tuesday morning. "Grab your gear, we got a dead petty officer who didn't show up to board her ship this morning." Gibbs said as the team was sipping their coffee and getting reayd to start their day .

Tony said "I hate these first thing in the morning crime scenes, they are never a good omen for how the day is going to go."

Ziva replied" What is the matter, did you not get enough beauty sleep last night Tony?"

Mcgee chuckled. "Nice. "

Tony said "I slept just fine Ziva, got a new mattress that feels just like a cloud ."

Gibbs said " Maybe we could think about why our petty officer didn't wake up this morning on the way to the case instead of Dinozzo's bedroom for a few minutes huh?"

Forty minutes later: The team entered her apartment and saw that it was neat and painted brightly blue. Tony said " Looks pretty cheery in here." He started to look around the living room. "Nice couch, hmm she liked James Bond movies. Different for a woman."

Ziva said " That is right you think we are all into how do you say it chick flicks?"

Tony said "Pirates of the Caribbean I rest my case Ms. David."

Gibbs said" You two mind less yabba yabba and maybe coming in here to look at the crime scene sometime today?"

Tony nodded. "On it boss." He went into the room first and saw the petty officer laying on her left side with an opened bottle of red wine and some sleeping pills on the nightstand. He looked at her and said "Uh boss I need a minute I'll be out in the hall, ok."

Gibbs raised an eyebrow. "Ok finish the apartment."

Tony said " On it."

Mcgee said " This is Petty Officer First Class Renee Thomas. She was to leave today on a six month tour to lend support in the Mediterranean. We were alerted when she didn't show up to board the ship at Norfolk on the USS Ronald Reagan. She is 34 and single. Has a roommate here , we are trying to locate her now boss."

Gibbs nodded. " When Ducky gets here have him take the body back, something rattled Dinozzo about this one."

Mcgee said "On it, I hope Tony is ok."

Gibbs sighed. " Me too."

Tony was processing the living room and quiet when Ziva came out a minute later. "What was that about in there?"

Tony said" The room was a little too small. I thought I could work better out here."

Ziva said " All right but I think some thing in there got to you. I saw it in your eyes."

Tony said " Just let it be Ziva , I don't need to share every time a thought comes in to my head about a case."
