A/N 2: I 3 Tate!

"We leave at 0800 tomorrow. I'll see you two in the morning. Oh, Tony?"

"Yeah, Boss?"

"Make sure there are no iguanas in the house before you go to bed. I don't want to wake up to what I did yesterday."

"Sure thing, Boss"

Kate began to laugh and received a death glare from Tony. They were in the little sitting area of the house they were staying at in the naval base located in Cuba. Kate and Tony were flipping through channels on the little TV.

"I'm bored," Tony whined.

"Oh, Lord. I'm gonna go to bed. You're too whiney. G'night!" Kate stated as she stood up.

"No, wait! I have an idea!" he squealed.

"Shh! Do you want to wake Gibbs up? He'd kill us! I know I'm gonna regret this, but what's your idea?" Kate said in a hushed voice.

"Get in the car. I'm taking you to that club that Paula hangs out at. Come on. Get! Let's go!"

Tony never gave Kate a chance to argue. He hurried her out the front door and into the car, only stopping to double check that the front door was closed.

They arrived at the club and walked up to the bar.

"What do you want to drink, Katie?"

She cringed at the nickname, "Nothing."

"Aw, come on, Kate! It's our last night in Cuba! Let's have some fun! What do you normally have to drink when you're out with friends? Assuming you have any..."

"Cute, Tony. Real cute," She spat.

"Well?"

"Apple martini, please."

"Coming up," the bartender said.

An hour and five martinis later, Kate was loosened up and actually having a good time.

"Come on, Kate, let's dance," Tony suggested.

Kate slid off her barstool and walked with Tony over to the dance floor.

"Just to warn you: I've never tangoed before so you'll have to lead."

"No problem."

Five minutes later after a fast paced song and moves with too many turns to count, Kate and Tony paid their tab and headed back to the house.

"Where did you learn to tango like that?" Kate asked astonished.

"My mom made me take lessons in high school. Said it'd come in handy some day when trying to impress a lady."

"She's a smart woman."

Tony grinned.

"Did it work?" he asked hesitantly.

They had arrived at the house and were standing in front of the door.

"I'd say so," she remarked.

She had barely said 'so' when Tony leaned down and kissed her. Tony pulled Kate inside and led her to the couch. They did nothing more than kiss and neither one wanted to go any farther. All of the sexual tension between them had finally dissipated. They wondered if Gibbs knew they left.

Oh, God, I hope not, Kate thought.

We could be in serious trouble in the morning, Tony thought.

They stayed on the couch all night.

------------------------------------------------

The next morning, Gibbs woke up bright and early to make his coffee. He stumbled into the living room to find Kate and Tony cuddled up against each other, still asleep.

Finally, no more bickering...Maybe, he thought to himself.

But, being the wonderful observer that he is, Gibbs noticed an iguana on the back of the sofa, staring into Tony's ear.

Gibbs chuckled and thought, At least DiNozzo isn't...

He shuttered at the memory and went to shut the front door. It slammed waking the sleeping forms of his team.

Kate screamed bloody murder at the sight of the iguana and Tony yelled, "FREEZE!" which earned him a slap on the back of his head.

"Next time, Shut the front door, DiNozzo!"
