On The Verge of Tears- Prologue
Tony's POV
Tony sighed as he entered the bullpen. He could tell today was going to be a long day. He had woken up early, at about 0230, and then couldn't get back to sleep. He took plenty of time getting ready, but by the time he was ready for work, it was only 0400! Eventually he just decided to go to work early. For once, He didn't speed on the way to the navy yard and he obeyed all of the traffic laws. He still got in at 0445 though… When he arrived, as expected, no one else was there. He sat down and began to do his work, going through his stack of paper work quickly. When he finished it was 0600, so he settled into his chair for some well-deserved rest.
AN HOUR AND A HALF LATER…
When Tony was drifting out of sleep, the first thing he heard was voices. "Do you think he stayed overnight?"
"Of course not, McGee! Look at his clothes, they are different than what he was wearing yesterday!"
"But why would he be here so early, Ziva?...He's never at work before us! You have to admit it's a bit odd." Tony decided that now would be a good time to interrupt their "oh-so-interesting" conversation.
"And you have to admit it's a bit odd that you two are standing around chatting when you could be working!" He opened his eyes and sat up. McGee jumped, and Ziva even looked a bit surprised that he was awake. He powered up his computer and stretched out. That chair really is not comfortable! He noticed Ziva and McGee were both still staring at him. He sighed for what seemed like the millionth time that day. "Can I help you two?"
"Why are you here so early?" McGee and Ziva asked at the same time.
"What, I'm not allowed to come in on time, early even?" He asked them. Before they could answer, Gibbs walked around the corner.
"Nope." Tony was about to say something, but he got distracted by the person who had just stepped out of the elevator. "
"Mom?"
