To close to home
Kate looked out the window of Tony's car this would the first time she had been back in the NCIS for longer then an hour in 6 years, she had gotten out of the safe house three weeks before hand, Tony had moved all her things to his house so he could be with her every moment of the day.
Today he was taking her to work with him he didn't care what Gibbs said if he wanted Tony back at work he'd have to put up with Kate being there as well. McGee and Ziva had found the guy who had threaded Abby and put Kate in a coma... with a bullet in his head, a bullet Gibbs had put there. "You mess with my people you pay the ultimate price" he had told the guy before putting it there.
Tony looked over at Kate "Little weird going into work when your not there to work hey?" all she did was nod, and bite her lip as a tear ran down her cheek. Tony pulled the car over, "hey, hey Katie what's wrong?" he asked looking over at her.
"What if they come after me again, I'll have to go back into hiding I've spent the last 6 years in hiding I just want to be able to live my life" another tear ran down her face Tony pulled her into a hug careful not to hurt her still healing ribs also some of the scars on her arms still had to heal a bit. He kissed the scar that now sat above her eyebrow "I'm not going to let anything happen to you," Tony lifted her chin with his forefinger so he was looking into her eyes.
"Katie I'm not going to let anyone hurt you cause if they do I'm gonna tag team with Abs and we'll kick their buts from here to kingdom come and back again, they'll wish they never laid a hand on you when Gibbs and Ducky are through with them then Abby and I might send them on a one way trip to Pluto. You mean too much too many people for anything bad to happen to you ok" he tapped his fist to her chin playfully.
She nodded and softly kissed him "thanks" Tony shrugged and started the car up again.
In no time they were outside of the NCIS building.
"I'll be with you the whole day who gives a flying pigs ass what Gibbs says I'm not leaving you at home alone" he whispered in her ear.
As they walked into the building, the new security guard stopped them "I'm sorry authorized personnel only" he said stepping in front of the lift "uh-huh yeah I know Special Agent Tony Dinozzo, and this is my girlfriend who used to work here Caitlin Todd now are you going to move or do I have to call Special Agent Gibbs" the young man shook his head and moved out of the way.
They made their way up to the bull pen where Gibbs meet them.
"How did I know you were going to do that Tony?" he asked then smiled when he saw two confused faces.
"Simple I would have done the same thing" Gibbs walked off leaving them alone.
Tony sat down at his desk and pulled Kate down onto his lap, they sat there talking about different things till McGee and Ziva walked in "Hey Kate long time no see how are you?" McGee asked
"Ok still a little sore" she replied. Tony wrapped his arms around Kate's waist. She lent back into him and kissed him on the cheek, McGee rolled his eyes and sat down Kate looked at him questioningly.
"See its good to have you back even if its only for the day Kate but it's gonna take a while for me to get used to you sitting on Dinozzo's lap and kissing him" he explained all she did was poke her tongue at him.
The elevator dinged and out walked Dr Mallard "ah Caitlin hello good to see you again your looking fit as a fiddle, there's a funny story I was in Istanbul- he was greeted by groans as Gibbs walked in again.
"Ok we all ready? Tony your job today desk duty which I'm sure you'll find rather fun today, the rest of you follow me"
