Change | Kitty's No.10 – don't trust anyone who hasn't seen you naked.
And so we get the first scene of pure McKitty. More coming right up!
For the first half of the next day, Kitty and Tim acted as if nothing happened. They worked on the case that was currently happening. Kitty was working in forensics with Abby, which she was thankful for; Kitty had to tell someone.
"And then, at the end of the night, he drove me home, and then we kissed, and his lips are really soft and it was so gentle and it was so nice but I don't know if it ruined anything between us," Kitty ended, retelling the night to Abby.
"Oh, my God! He drove you home? That's really sweet," Abby said at first, because she seemed really awkward. "Okay, how do you truly really feel about him?"
"Well, you know, I think I've gotten closer to him than anyone else here, except you, and he's like a best friend. But, I didn't really know I had feelings for him and then we kissed and now I've realised that I do," Kitty said. In Abby's head, she sounded a little helpless.
"Awh, little Kitty. You know what you need to do? You two need to talk. Get your feelings straight. Sort something out!" Abby advised, putting an arm around her small friend.
"But I'm scared! What if he doesn't like me back?"
"Then, I'll teach him a lesson. Never lead people on."
"My brothers used to tell me to never trust anyone who hasn't seen you naked," Kitty said, although she was crying.
"Okay. Why are you crying?" Gibbs asked, coming into the room. Tim was behind him.
"I can't help it; I cry when I'm scared," Kitty said. Abby handed her a couple of tissues.
"Okay. Well, I need your help in Interrogation," Gibbs said. "So, err, come with me." Kitty nodded and left the room with Gibbs. Once in the elevator, Gibbs decided to speak up.
"Who is he and where does he live?" Despite the fact that Kitty knew he was serious, she laughed anyway.
"Abby? Can I talk to you about something?" Tim asked. He'd taken over Kitty's job of helping out. Internally, Abby groaned and rolled her eyes.
"Sure. What is it?"
"Well..." Tim described the previous night's events to Abby. "And then we kissed, and it was the greatest thing that's ever happened in history, I think," Tim finished, in a bit of a daze. Quietly, Abby let out a deep breath.
"Nice. But, why are you telling me this?"
"Well, what if it was too... forwards? Fast? What if she's not ready to be in a new relationship so soon? What if she doesn't feel the same way?"
"Stop with all the what ifs!" Abby exclaimed, turning around to face Tim and to grab his shoulders. "You won't know if you two don't talk about it. Go! Go find her! Talk to her!" Abby said, pushing Tim out of her lab. As she watched him get into the elevator, she shook her head. "Geez."
"You two. Talk to Sandez. Go," Gibbs said, pointing at Tim and Kitty. They nodded, got up and headed towards the elevator.
"Do you think something's up between them?" Tony asked Ziva, pointing in their direction. Without even looking up, Ziva nodded.
Once in the elevator, Kitty hit the stop button. The lights dimmed, and she turned to Tim. "Listen, Tim, I don't know how you feel, but last night was the best night of my life and I-," Tim had cut her off by kissing her. She had to break the kiss because she got so out of breath. Breathing heavily, with her forehead resting on his, Kitty smiled. "Well, that was a nice way of shutting me up," she said. Tim laughed, and it sounded so genuine.
"So, we're a thing?"
"We're a thing. Maybe just, err, avoid telling Tony. But yeah, we're a thing." Kitty smiled, and it looked so genuine.
