We're back with chapter seven. We're still in Tony's point of view, just as a reminder. Enjoy!
Disclaimer: I do not own the characters of NCIS; I only wish I did. That would be so much fun. Only thing I own are my OCs and my idea.
Recap: Tony and Katya enjoyed an Italian dinner, followed by watching Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark. During the movie, Katya received a phone call from home which didn't turn out to be a very pleasant one. She rejoined Tony on the couch and Tony took it upon himself to comfort her.
Beautiful Flower
The movie ended and we decided to start another one, The Shining. "A classic. I'm surprised you agreed to it."
"Why do you say that?"
"I often find it suspect when women want to watch classic movies."
"Oh really? Why is that?"
"It just seems that women try too hard if they throw out classic movie references." Katya laughed.
"So, I'm trying too hard? Is that it, Tony?" Katya gave me a look and my resistance dropped like a lead balloon.
"Not at all. I was just-"
"Making a chauvinistic, male generalization of women...ma'am." I looked up at the ceiling, as if Mal would be looking back at me, and began to glare.
"I guess that is one way of putting it. Thanks for that, Mal."
"Anytime, sir. Would you like something to snack on during the movie?"
"I would, Mal." I looked at Katya, almost forgetting that she was there with me.
"What would you like, ma'am?"
"Pretzels and ice cream."
"Vanilla, ma'am?"
"Indeed."
"Right away, ma'am." I looked at Katya again with a confused look on my face.
"Pretzels...and ice cream, Katya?"
"Is that strange to you?" I shook my head. "At least it isn't pickles and ice cream, Tony."
"That's a plus." I heard wheels and a whirring sound so I turned my head to see a robotic table rolled into view with a bowl of pretzels and a bowl of ice cream on it.
"Would you like anything, Agent DiNozzo?"
"Potato chips, if you have them."
"Certainly, Agent DiNozzo."
"You know, Katya, this is a really neat house."
"Thank you for that, Tony." I watched as Katya pulled the bowls onto her lap and started to dig into the ice cream with the pretzel sticks. I had to lick my lips, just to contain myself. I heard more whirring and turned my head to see another robotic table sitting in front of me, this one with potato chips in a bowl on it.
"Thank you, Mal."
"Certainly, Agent DiNozzo. Would you like me to resume the movie now?"
"Da." I looked at Katya and smiled, thinking she looked adorable with a pretzel hanging out of her mouth. We both turned our attention back to the movie screen and back to the Shining. Two and a half hours later, the movie ended and I was woken up by a tap on my chest.
"I'm up, boss."
"I'm guessing that 'boss' would be Agent Gibbs, which I am not."
"Sorry about that, Katya. Lots of paperwork tends to tire me out."
"Completely understandable, Tony. Will you be able to make it home okay?"
"100%, boss." I felt my eyelids get heavy again and my head fell backwards onto the couch. I was shaken awake again and I snapped awake for the second time. "On your six, boss!"
"Tony! I'm still not Gibbs. You are definitely not going home in the state you're in." I mumbled some sort of agreement and felt my head fall forward again. "Tony!"
"Yeah, boss?"
"Stay awake long enough to get to my spare room. Please?"
"Yeah, sure thing."
Katya's Point of View
I shook my head at Tony's antics and somehow managed to get him off the couch. My grip slipped a few times and Tony almost ended up on the floor but I managed to keep him upright. Mal opened the guest room door for me and turned the lights on so I could see where I was going. I sat Tony down on the bed and took off his suit jacket, even with him falling forward so much. I shook my head and smiled as I continued to strip Tony down to his skin. I bit my lip, trying my very best to contain myself, and took Tony's shoes off. I swallowed hard and took Tony's socks and pants off. Mal was kind enough to pick Tony's clothes up off the floor as I tucked Tony into the bed. I kissed Tony's forehead and smiled as he lightly snored. "Gute Nacht, Tony." (Good night, Tony.) I turned the lights out and closed the door behind me. "Mal?"
"Yes, ma'am?"
"Set the alarm in Tony's room for six am."
"Right away, ma'am." I walked back down the hallway towards the living room to grab the bowls that still had remnants of chips and pretzels in them. I grabbed them and headed into the kitchen to put them in the sink for Mal to wash. "Anything else you need, ma'am?"
"No thank you, Mal. Just activate the security system for the night and you can take off for the rest of evening."
"Right away, ma'am." I walked back to my room and changed into my pajamas. I climbed into bed and started to smile at the thought of Tony sleeping a room down the hall.
-FIN-
That is it for this chapter. Next one will be out soon. I apologize for that.
