When Tony leaves the hospital he's left alone and he can't help but breakdown on his own. Only his partner can pick him back up and get him on his feet again. Set after Nature of the Beast.

Follows the remaining team through the time between seasons 6 and 7 - mostly Tony and McGee, but not slash! Can be read as Tiva, but doesn't have to be. Kind of angsty, but we all know the happy ending is coming
