It had been a month since Trege began to work on Team Gibbs. Everyone had adjusted to the change, seeing as they had no choice.
Team Gibbs had gotten a case that he needed someone undercover, and he only had two options for it.
He walked up to Trege and told her to follow him to the elevator.
Wonder what that's about? Tony thought as he watched Trege and Gibbs walk to the elevator.
When they got in, Gibbs pushed the emergency button to stop it. He turned and looked at Trege.
"What are you willing to do while undercover?" He bluntly asked.
"Anything you need me to, boss." She stated.
"Would you be a stripper?" He quizzed.
Trege's eyes got wide for a second and then relaxed. "If that's what you need me to do, then, yes. I'll go undercover as a stripper."
"Good, I'll have DiNozzo watch over you. There's someone kidnapping and raping women while the Navy is in port." He explained. "I need you and DiNozzo to try and find this guy."
Gibbs went to turn the emergency off, when Trege stopped him.
"If I may, boss, why me? Why not Ziva?" She asked shyly.
"Because Ziva would kill any man that put a hand on her thinking it's him." Gibbs pointed out. "We don't need innocent people dead."
Trege just nodded. "Got it, Boss."
Gibbs got the elevator going again and they walked back into the bullpen.
"DiNozzo, you and Trege are going undercover." Gibbs barked walking to his desk.
"As what, boss?" Tony asked.
"You'll see." Gibbs said smiling at Trege. "Just meet her at the Paradise Parrot at 10 tonight."
Tony looked confused. "A strip club, boss?"
"Yes, someone is kidnapping and raping woman at that club while Navy's in port. I need you to find this guy and bring him in." Gibbs ordered.
Tony just nodded. "On it, boss."
Time elapsed…..
Tony walked into the Paradise Parrot at 10 o'clock that evening. He looked around for Trege, but didn't see her.
Gibbs and McGee were in the truck outside watching the action. Gibbs still hadn't told Tony or McGee what Trege was undercover as.
"I don't see Trege, boss." Tony discreetly spoke into his mic. "Is she even here yet?"
"Oh, she's there, DiNozzo. Just keep looking." Gibbs slyly told him.
Tony searched the room over until his eyes caught a beautiful girl dancing on the stage. She was wearing a hot pick bikini and flirting with a bachelor party that was at the stage. Suddenly she looked up and caught Tony's eyes. The girl winked at him, and then with her finger beckoned for him to come closer to the stage.
Tony froze for a second, and then walked over to the stage. Tony could hear what sounded like faint laughing in his ear, but ignored it. Once he made it to the stage, the girl parted through the crowd of men of the bachelor party so she could get closer to him. She leaned down and got right in his ear.
"See anything yet, DiNozzo?" She questioned.
Tony was a little taken back that this girl knew who he was. He leaned back and looked at her face.
"Trege?" He mouthed.
She squinted her eyes at him, and then a smirk began to creep onto her face.
She stood up and started to dance a little more for the bachelor party. Tony watched as she got on the pole and slid herself down. It was unbelievable. Tony wondered where she learned how to do that. She didn't seem like the type that could pole dance. She seemed a little more conservative.
Tony finally turned his eyes away when he heard Gibbs yell in his ear. "You have an assignment, DiNozzo. Stop watching Trege and keep an eye for the Petty Officer."
Tony searched the room. No one seemed too suspicious. Once he had searched the whole room, his eyes crept back to Trege. She was on her knees and bending back to where she back touched the floor.
Tony shook his head to calm himself down. He didn't need to get aroused and forget his mission.
Time elapsed….
Soon it was two in the morning and Trege's 'shift' as a stripper was over. She walked from the back of the stage to Tony with a t-shirt and jeans on.
"Ready to go?" She said once she was standing right beside him.
Tony just stared at her with a cheesy grin on his face. He was still picturing the moves she had pulled.
"What are you smiling about, DiNozzo?" Trege asked breaking his trance.
Tony shook his head. "Nothing, just, " He started. "Where did you learn all those moves?"
Trege laughed. "Wouldn't you like to know." She teased.
Tony smiled and walked her out. "Gibbs told me to drive you home." He told her walking her to the car.
"Good," Trege said once they reached Tony's car. "I don't think I'm in a state to drive anyway. My muscles hurt so badly."
Tony smirked. "Need a massage?" He coyly asked.
Trege blushed a little and bit her bottom lip. "Not tonight. Maybe some other time."
Tony grinned and helped her in the car. He then walked around and got in the car himself and headed to her apartment.
When they reached her apartment building, Trege started to get out. Before she could, Tony grabbed her arm. "You know, you're going to have to tell me where you learned those moves." He told her with a smirk.
Trege leaned in close to his ear, "I had to make my way through college somehow." She whispered.
Tony swallowed hard and let go of her arm. Trege got out of the car and walked towards her building. She then turned around and looked at Tony. "Same time, same place?" She laughed.
Tony nodded and smiled before he drove off.
Trege smiled watching him leave and then walked into her apartment.
Time elapsed….
It was the next night. Trege was on the stage dancing when she saw a man hassling a woman at the bar. Tony was by the stage, so she made her over to him. She leaned down and got right in his ear. "Man at the bar. Go check it out." She whispered.
Tony nodded and walked over to the bar to check out the scene.
The man was forcing himself on the woman.
Tony walked over to her and put his arm around her. "Is this man bothering you, honey?" He asked looking straight at the guy.
The woman looked up at Tony and smiled. "Yes he is, dear." She said looking back the other man.
"Oh, I'm sorry. Didn't realize you had somebody." The man said walking away.
The woman let out a sigh of relief. "Thanks for that." She exclaimed. "I'm Ingrid, by the way." She extended her hand out.
"Anthony DiNozzo." He introduced shaking her hand.
"Hmm, an Italian." Ingrid pulled him closer. "I like Italians." She whispered.
Tony smiled. ""Gli occhi scintillano brighter than le stelle." He purred in her ear.
Ingrid let out a slight shiver. "Please tell me you're not married?" She blurted.
Tony gave his patented DiNozzo smile and shook his head. "Not yet."
Ingrid looked down and blushed.
Time elapsed….
Tony and Trege headed out to the van to talk to Gibbs after her 'shift' was over.
"I just got a call from Ziva." Gibbs announced as the opened the door. "The Petty Officer has changed his MO."
"Well, whose he targeting now, boss?" Tony asked.
"Male strippers." Gibbs smirked.
Tony's eyes got wide as he was almost reading Gibbs' mind. "No, boss, I refuse."
Trege and McGee tried to hide their laughter.
"I didn't ask you to do it, DiNozzo." Gibbs barked. "You're doing it."
Tony was about to protest, but Gibbs burned a hole in his head with his stare so he gave up. "Can we at least not tell Abby and Ziva about this?" He requested.
"Who do you think will be looking out for you?" Gibbs laughed.
"Boss!" Tony expressed. "They'll eat me alive!"
Gibbs slapped the young man on the back of the head.
"Thank you, boss." Tony said rubbing the back of his head.
"It's not that big of a deal, Tony. All you have to do is dance. Maybe put a smile on some older lady's face." Trege consoled. "And besides," She leaned into his ear. "There might be a massage in it for ya if your muscles hurt afterwards."
Tony swallowed hard. "That would be nice." He choked up.
Trege smiled and walked to the car. She turned when she realized Tony wasn't following.
"Aren't you bringing me home, DiNozzo? Or do I have to ask McGee?" She yelled.
Tony snapped out of his trance and jogged to catch up to her. Once he did they got in the car and sped off to her apartment.
Review please.
