Lonely Hearts

At lunch that day Kate walked around the outside of the school slowly, running what she was going to say to Ari through her head nervously. She found him sitting against the wall with another book in his hand, he closed it when she walked up to him and put it next to him on the ground.

She sat in front of him with her legs tucked under her body, fiddling with her sling as he watched her curiously.

"What is wrong?" He asked her after a moment of silence, reaching forward and brushing her cheek lightly with his fingers as he cocked his head to the side.

She swallowed and looked up at him "I don't think we should be together anymore" She said "It's hard"

Ari took her good hand and pulled her to sit in his lap so she was straddling him, he pressed his forehead against hers, their noses brushing against each other's and his arms around her back.

"Caitlin, why are you saying this?" He asked her quietly. She closed her eyes and put her hand on his shoulder and pressed her lips to his softly, running her hand down over his heart.

"I'm sorry Ari" She said going to stand up, but his hands pulled her back to him and he stared at her.

"Caitlin, please answer my question" He said. She looked away from him and played with her sling again.

"I don't want to be with you anymore. It's too hard" She said softly, getting up and walking away from him, wiping away a tear and not looking back at Ari.

Later that night Kate walked into Tony's room and found him sitting on his bed watching TV.

"Hey Katie. No window tonight?" He said turning the TV off and looking at her.

She gave him a look and indicated to her arm "Your maid let me in" She said "I'm guessing your Dad's not here"

Tony shook his head as Kate sat down next to him, he looked at her for a moment before asking:

"What was wrong with you today?"

She was silent for a moment before saying softly "I broke up with Ari"

Tony didn't say anything for a while, he ran a hand through his messy hair and took a deep breath.

"You know I hate him Kate, but he made you happy" He said "Why?"

Kate stood up in front of him and with one hand lifted her shirt up and showed him her ribs.

"Jeez Katie" Tony said looking at it. He stood up with a murderous expression on his face "Did Ari do this to you?"

She shook her head and pulled her shirt back down. "My Dad found out about Ari, that's how I hurt my arm. And when I was in the hospital I heard Ari threaten my Dad...when we got home the next day my Dad told me that if I stayed with Ari he'd really hurt me" She said sitting back down next to him.

"You shouldn't listen to your Dad" Tony said with a shrug, lying down on the bed. Kate laid down next to him and closed her eyes, thankful she had a best friend like Tony to help her through this.

"Ari, what happened today?" Ziva asked as she walked in with Ari, he didn't pay attention to her, instead walking straight up the staircase and disappearing behind the corner.

Ziva sighed and went into the large living room, finding Michael sitting on one of the couches and sat down next to him.

"I do not know what happened" She said to him "He is being closed again"

Michael thought for a moment "Did something happen?" He asked. She shrugged.

"He will not tell me" She said with a frown "He has not said a word to me since this morning"

Tony took Ziva's hands and pinned her against the gym wall before school the next morning with a grin on his face. Ziva smirked up at him before he leaned down and kissed her, letting her hands go and pulling her closer to him. They sat down together on the bleachers and Tony held her hand in both of his.

"Did something happen to Kate and Ari yesterday?" She asked him, putting her other hand on his leg.

"They broke up" He said with a shrug as he played with her hand. She let out a breath and nodded.

"Do you know why?" She asked.

He shook his head and looked up at her, leaning forward and kissing her cheek before leaving his forehead pressed against her temple.

The gym door opened and Peter and Jodie, the cheerleader, walked in. When Peter saw the two he rolled his eyes, taking the arm of Jodie and pulling her back out.

"I am glad Kate punched him" Ziva said.

Kate opened her locker the next morning, a frown still on her face that hadn't left since lunch the day before. She put her bag in and noticed a book in the corner of her locker. It was the book Ari had given her two months ago when she first met him. She noticed something different about it and pulled it out, noticing a piece of paper sticking out of it.

'Caitlin,

I apologize for any pain I caused you.

Anî ohevêt otchâ

-Ari'

Kate sighed and put the note in her pocket and shut her locker before turning around, coming face to face with Ari, who was leaning against the locker across from her.

She looked at him for a moment before looking down and walking away.

:( She just walked away. Well, you're still gonna review right? It'll make me update faster!
