Author's note: First, I just want to say thank you to my sister and best friend. (Brenna and Nancyilyn) They have helped me and let me bounce ideas off of them and I love them for it. Second, this story and pairing may not be what people want, but I am my own person, and I'm very selfish so basically, I would want these men to myself. LOL. Thank you for choosing to read this. Of course, this is a sequel to my previous story, The Heart and Head Connection. And I'm planning one more story after this so I hope you enjoy. Also, my first story, where I wanted line breaks, I didn't indicate it so in this one I'm going to. You live, you learn, you get Luvs. LOL. Sorry bad joke.
Disclaimer: I own NOTHING!
The club was packed. McGee, Abby, and Jessi were sitting at a table sipping on their drinks. Tony was at the bar talking to some "Barbie" girl he met.
"Hi, my name is Stephanie." The girl said with a smile, extended her hand.
Tony put his hand out as well. "Tony."
She pulled him closer as soon as their hands touched. "You're hot!" she whispered in his ear.
Tony stepped back and licked his lips looking her up and down. "You're not bad yourself."
This girl had everything that a DiNozzo would like. She had big boobs, a tiny waist, and banging hips. She was the perfect girl for a hook-up.
"Do you wanna dance?" Stephanie said pointing to the dance floor.
Tony was about to accept when he looked over at the table of his friends. There sat McGee and Jessi slumped over acting like they weren't having any fun at all. The only person that was trying to have any fun was Abby, and with the energy at the table, that was hard to do.
Tony looked back at Stephanie, "No, sorry, but I'm taken." He said before walking off.
Abby had tried to get Jessi or McGee to dance with her all night. Neither of them would budge. Abby had given up and just danced by herself at the table.
Tony walked up behind Jessi, "Dance with me!" He demanded in her ear. He then walked around in front of her. She gave him a dirty look. "Please?" he gave her the same pouty face he had when he was trying to get her to come to Vegas.
"Why?" Jessi screamed in his ear.
"Because I'm not having any fun watching you two sit here like dead weights." Tony exclaimed. He extended his hand out for her to take. She gave him another dirty look. Just then "Please Don't Stop the Music" by Rihanna came over the speakers.
Jessi took his hand. "You better be lucky I love this song." She declared as she hopped out her chair.
Tony just licked his lips and smiled, knowing he just won. Tony escorted Jessi onto the floor and positioned her in front of him. They weren't dancing too close but as the music went on they got closer. Soon Jessi had her arms draped over Tony's shoulders and Tony had his arms around her waist. Their foreheads were touching and their rhythm was in sync.
Do you know what you started?
I just here to party.
But now we're rocking on the dance floor acting naughty.
You're hands around my waist.
Just let the music play.
We're hand in hand, chest to chest, and now we're face to face.
Time elapsed…..
Tony's eyes opened. His head was pounding and he had a weird churning in his stomach. He sat up and rubbed her eyes. He looked to his left to look at the clock to see what time it was. It was 10:30 in the morning. He stretched and went to take the covers off to get up and start another day in Vegas and noticed he was completely naked. He turned to his left again and noticed dirty blonde hair sticking out from underneath the covers.
Tony pulled the covers off of her face and there laid Jessi. Tony jumped out of bed and quickly searched for his boxers. He found them lying right next to the bed. He slipped them on and then processed to wake Jessi up. He reached out his left hand to wake her and noticed something on his hand. He looked closer and it was a wedding band.
Tony then shook Jessi vigorously to wake her up. She rolled over opening her eyes just slightly.
"Oh hey Tony." She said sleepily.
She then shot up. "TONY? WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY ROOM?" she screamed.
"Umm… Jessi you're in my room." Tony pointed out.
Jessi looked around and it didn't look like the room she had checked into the night before. She then hit her forehead with her left hand. There was something cold and hard that hit her head. She brought her hand down to examine it closer and there it was…. Tony's class ring on her finger.
"Why am I wearing your class ring?" Jessi screeched as she jumped out of bed. She then realized she was naked.
Jessi grabbed the sheets off of the bed and wrapped them around her body. "And where are my clothes?" she barked.
Tony picked up his shirt off the floor and threw it to her. "Here, wear this until we can find them."
Jessi took the shirt and turned around to put it on. After that she threw the covers back on the bed.
"What happened last night?" Jessi said looking at Tony, who was pacing the floor trying to think.
"I don't know. The last thing I remember is us dancing at the club." Tony exclaimed.
Jessi sat back on the bed and put her face into her hands. "This is so messed up." She cried.
Tony walked over to her and sat down beside her, putting his arm around her. "Don't worry. When we get back to D.C. we'll figure this out." Tony said trying to console her. "But for right now, let's just enjoy Vegas."
Jessi sat up and looked at him. She took a deep breath. "You're right. We shouldn't let this spoil our fun." She then looked down to see her clothes lying right next to the bed.
So they both got dressed and walked to the lobby to find some breakfast. When they arrived, there sat McGee and Abby at a table already eating.
"Hey sleepy heads." Abby yelled across the lobby. "Glad to see ya'll have made it to breakfast."
Tony and Jessi went to sit at the table. "Not so loud Abby. My head hurts." Jessi said flopping in the chair next to Abby.
"Sorry." Abby whispered. "Ya'll must have a pretty wild night. McGee and I didn't see you after we left the club."
Jessi and Tony looked up at each other and then Jessi looked at Abby. "Nah, not really. Just, ya know, hit the slot machines and such. Are you going to eat that?" Jessi pointed to something on Abby's plate.
Abby shook her head and slid her plate closer to Jessi. "Oh, while you guys were dancing last night, Palmer called." Abby announced.
Jessi looked up from the plate. "What did he want?" She asked with a mouth full of food.
"He said that the hall that they wanted is going to be open in two weeks. He was just telling us to get ready when we come back because we're all going to be in it." Abby sounded extra excited about being in the wedding.
Jessi gave her crooked little smile. "Well then maybe we should go shopping today and pick out bridesmaids dresses." Jessi suggested.
Abby jumped out of her chair with glee. "Yeah." Abby then grabbed Jessi's arm and dragged her back to the room to get ready.
After the girls got ready, they headed downtown to go shopping. McGee and Tony walked back to the suite and decided to just watch T.V.
While they were at the store Jessi was acting anxious. Abby noticed and decided to ask her. "What's wrong, Jessi?" She asked her looking at a black dress with red lace around the waist.
Jessi just shook her head. "Breena would NEVER allow that in her wedding." Jessi stated.
Abby laughed. "Yea that would be more my wedding." Abby then turned completely to Jessi. "You've been acting weird since breakfast. What's going on?"
Jessi hung her head. She needed to tell somebody. Abby was her best friend now, and she didn't think Abby would judge her.
So Jessi took and deep breath. "Tony and I got married last night." Jessi blurted.
Abby's eyes widened. "WHAT?"
Jessi pulled Tony's class ring out of her pocket and put it on her ring finger. She then held her hand up and showed it to her. "We got married."
"So that's why we didn't see you last night? Ya'll were on your honeymoon." Abby teased.
Jessi pushed Abby's shoulder. "Shut up. This isn't funny." Jessi chuckled a little herself. "I don't know what I'm going to do, Abs."
"Well, do you want to be married to him?" Abby inquired.
Jessi just shrugged and turned to look at a lavender dress. "This might be good." Jessi said holding out the dress.
"Yeah, and then when you and Tony announce your marriage we can have a real ceremony. We can wear that dress there as well." Abby teased her again.
Jessi gave her "you're funny" face and hung back up.
Abby grabbed the dress and brought it to the counter. "Do you guys have two more like this?" Abby asked the lady.
The associate nodded and walked to the back. Abby turned to Jessi. "It's still a perfect dress." She stated.
Jessi laughed and walked to join her. The lady came back with the other two dresses and rung the girls up. Jessi had Breena's credit card, so she used it. "It's her wedding." Jessi laughed.
The girls grabbed their bags and left the store. "I say it's time for lunch. Let's call the guys and have them meet us somewhere." Abby pointed out.
Different scene…..
Tony and McGee were sitting on the couch watching a show that neither one of them were paying attention to.
"Didn't Jessi look beautiful this morning?" McGee turned and asked Tony.
Tony just thought of when he had pulled the covers off her face. She looked like an angel sent from heaven. In Tony's mind there was no better sight in the world.
"Hello… Tony?" McGee waved his hand in front of Tony's face.
"Huh? What? Oh, sorry. Yeah, I guess you can say that." Tony said snapping out of his trance.
"What's going on with you man? You've been acting weird since breakfast." McGee inquired sitting back on the couch.
Tony looked at his friend. He knew McGee was still in love with Jessi. He didn't want to hurt him. But then again this marriage wasn't going to last long.
"Nothing just got a hangover." Tony proclaimed. He had decided it was better to just leave McGee in the dark until the time was right.
Just then Tony's phone rang. "DiNozzo…. Oh, hey Abs…. Meet you for lunch? Sure….. Where?... Ok…. See you in a bit." Tony slammed the phone shut. "Let's get ready. We're meeting the girls for lunch."
The guys got up and got dressed. They headed out to the restaurant that Abby wanted to meet.
When they got there, the girls were sitting down at a table. Abby waved the boys over and Tony and McGee joined them.
McGee went to sit next to Jessi but Abby pulled him over by her. "I've saved you a sit over here, Tim." Abby forced him in the chair next to her.
Tony shyly sat by Jessi. They all picked up there menu's and looked for something good to eat. Tony leaned over to Jessi and pointed to a dish on the menu. "I was told this is delicious." Tony exclaimed in a hushed tone.
Jessi look over at the dish. It was Shrimp Alfredo. Jessi thought back to the night that she had had dinner with Tony and she ate the same thing.
She lifted her menu in front of her face and turned towards Tony. "How did you remember I like Shrimp Alfredo?" she whispered to him.
Tony just smiled and shrugged his shoulders.
Abby realized that Jessi hadn't taken Tony's ring off her finger. She grabbed Jessi's hand and yanked her away from the table. "Excuse us guys. I need to go to the bathroom and need Jessi to come with me." Abby pulled Jessi through the restaurant to the bathrooms.
Once they reached the bathroom, Abby pushed Jessi in and closed the door. "You still have Tony's ring on." Abby pointed out.
Jessi looked down at her hand, gasped, and then yanked the ring off. She put it in her pocket and they went back to the table.
When they got back, Tony and McGee were staring at them kind of confused.
Jessi looked at Tony and subtly wiggled her ring finger at him. He nodded and got what they were doing and then looked over at McGee who was still clueless.
"You know women. They can't go to the bathroom alone." Tony laughed uneasily.
McGee chuckled himself. "Yeah, I guess."
Just then the waiter arrived at the table to take their orders. They all ordered and then the waiter brought it to the chef.
A few minutes later the waiter came back with their food and they ate.
After they were done Tony suggested they go to a show.
"As long as I myself don't have to see any naked women, I'll be fine!" Jessi exclaimed.
Tony shook his head. "Nah, I wouldn't bring you girls to a show like that." Tony laughed. "That's just for me and Timmy here to go to later." Tony titled his chin up towards McGee.
McGee snorted and smiled.
They all went back to the hotel to figure out a show to go to. Tony Bennett was playing at a theatre just down the street so they decided to go there. The show wasn't for another three hours, so the gang decided to go hang out upstairs and wait.
When they got to the suite, the girls went to put their bags in their room. While they were in there they decided to start getting ready.
Just as Jessi was about to get undressed, Tony came in to talk to Jessi.
Jessi turned around, shirt off and saw Tony standing there. She quickly put her shirt in front of her.
"Tony! Don't you know how to knock?" She screeched.
Tony turned and faced the door. "Sorry, I need to talk to you."
"You guys are married, why do you care?" Abby teased.
Jessi turned and gave her a cruel look. "I just do ok?" Jessi scoffed putting her shirt back on. "Ok, you can turn around again." She let Tony know.
Tony turned around. "I need to talk to you about this marriage thing actually." Tony stated walking to the bed to sit down.
"What about it?" Jessi inquired sitting next to him.
"First of all, you told Abby?" Tony questioned.
"Yeah, I needed to tell someone about it." Jessi said pitifully.
Tony rolled his eyes. "Well anyway, do you want to get annulled?" Tony just blurted out.
Jessi stood up and turned back towards him. "Only if you want to."
Tony shrugged. "What else could we do? It's not like we were dating or anything." Tony pointed out.
He stood up and put his hands on Jessi's shoulders. "I don't want you to do what you don't want to." He reassured her.
Jessi took a deep breath. "If you think it's best then….." Jessi looked up into Tony's eyes. "Let's get it annulled."
Tony took his hands off her shoulders and clapped once over her head. "Alright! But I don't trust anyone but my lawyer so we're going to have to wait to get back to D.C." He stated.
Jessi nodded and gave a small smile. Tony was the only person that she felt completely safe with. But it was for the best so she had no choice.
Tony walked out of the room and went to get ready himself.
Time elapsed…..
Three hours later:
The group was sitting at a table enjoying the music. They each had had at least two drinks by now and they were filling pretty loose.
Tony Bennett was singing "The Way You Look Tonight".
McGee stood up and walked over to Jessi. He extended his hand for her to dance with him.
Jessi reluctantly took his hand. They were on the dance floor dancing and McGee was holding her close. Jessi rested her head on his shoulder and cried a little bit. She really did care for McGee; she just couldn't be with him. She broke the dance and started to walk to the bathrooms, but Tony stopped her.
"Dance with me." He suggested in her ear. "We haven't had first dance as a couple anyway." He teased.
Jessi looked up at him and gave him her crooked grin. Tony licked his lips and smiled back at her. They went back to the dance floor and were dancing an inch apart.
But as the music kept going, they got closer and closer till her head was resting on his shoulder. She felt safe there. It just felt right.
McGee had walked back to the table. Abby stood up and extended her hand. "Dance with me, Timmy!" Abby demanded.
McGee smiled and took her hand. As soon as they got on the dance floor they were dancing close.
Review please.
