It took Kate a long time to realise her feelings for Gibbs. And now when they were just subsiding something had to come up to rip her heart out, again.
Tony had "found out" (interrogated more like) that he had found a girlfriend and he thought it would work, why oh why??
Kate looked up and saw Gibbs coming out of the elevator with a tall-ish attractive looking man. Kate instinctively looked away and looked busy. "DiNozzo, Kate, McGee, This is Cpl Blighty, our aid for the case" Gibbs said "aid" with a slight sneer.
As the hours wore on, Kate felt a figure standing in front of her desk. Cpl Blighty. "How about you and I hook up sometime?" Kate didn't know what to say. No, she did. Gibbs was stationed behind him now so, summoning up all her courage, she replied "Thanks, but my heart lies somewhere else."
Getting up, she willed Gibbs to follow her but no.
AT KATES HOUSE
Kate was looking over her report when the doorbell rung. Stretching and getting up she answered the door. Flowers were on the doorstep. "Meet me at the coffee-house a.s.a.p." Getting ready she raced there.
On arrival a familiar face greeted her. "I thought you'd never arrive." Gibbs kissed her cheek and in they went.
