Chapter 6: Moving day and being home
After they finally officially got their apartment, they now had to decided when they are going to move in. First they needed to figure out what furniture and other things they want to put into their apartment, then they need to decided to both go through each others stuff and choose what to keep and what to give away.
They decided the weekend of June 25th as their moving day, they let Susan know they have two weeks to get ready to move. They worked then they came home and went to work on moving, Monday evening after dinner they started sorting through Tony's furniture. First they started in the living room, they decided to give away his living room set. They want to buy the living room furniture to make it theirs, next they moved to the kitchen. When Tim moved into Tony's place he gave away his cooking equipment and brought his dishes with him but they are in storage. They decided to keep both sets of dishes but they needed to buy a china cabinet to store them, overall they gave away Tony's living room set, his bed and his dinning room table. Now they need to go through Tim's stuff, the weekend came and that was left to do was go through Tim's stuff. Tim already gave away his bed, some of his kitchen stuff his living room furniture, so he had the rest of his furniture in storage. They decided to keep his computer and his desk, Tony and Tim will share Tim's computer so Tony cleared his computer, since they already had two book shelves one would go in the office, the other in the living room.
The following week was stressful for Tony and Tim because the team got a case and it was not a simple case, they had to work through leads that meant long hours. Most of the week they would not get home late, finally they solved the case on Thursday for the hard work Gibbs gave the team the weekend off. That weekend for Tony and Tim meant shopping, Friday was shopping for living room furniture. They decided on a nice pull out couch and a wood and glass coffee table, also a TV and DVD cabinet. They sent it right to their new apartment, Saturday was shopping for a new bed for the master bedroom. They went with the queen size bed that was with the separate comfort number bed, which had a nice matching head and foot boards. They also found nice sheets and matching curtains, that was sent to their new apartment. Also bought a new dinning room set and a china cabinet, finally Sunday came and they had to set up and figure out where to put their living room, then dinning room. Finally their master bed room, the last week before the moving day they finish setting up the office. They had to rent a U-Haul the res of the week was full of packing their clothes and other stuff. By Thursday Tony's apartment only had boxes in it, they slept on the floor for their last night. After work on Friday they filled the U-Haul and unpacked the U-Haul into their new apartment, Tony returned the U-Haul while Tim put boxes into the right rooms.
During the weekend the team had to work, but lucky for them they did not get a case. So the team worked on paper work, each nigh Tim and Tony worked on unpacking. Over the next week they finished setting up the apartment, by Friday it was done and they were pleased how it turned out. Now they finally felt at home, to celebrate they had a nice dinner in their new dinning room. Then their christened their new bed, the following morning Tim woke up and had a smile on his face. He gave Tony a kiss and Tony woke up saying, "Good morning" Tim replied. "Good morning and I am happy to wake up with you next to me". With that Tony kissed Tim and they got up and headed to work. Life went on and Tim and Tony were finally having a life together.
