Summary: Kate's POV during the 'dress-up' scene in Black Water
Spoilers: Black Water and Forced Entry
This is the third time I've reapplied my lipstick and finally Tony walks back in with Gibbs and I catch him looking at me. I'm suddenly incredibly grateful that Abby made me buy this dress. I wait for Tony to get to his desk before I strap the gun on my thigh. I remember what he said once about dating a girl who liked to dress up in his police uniform. If he doesn't feel something from this move I don't know what would get his juices flowing. I walk over to his desk and suddenly there are butterflies in my stomach. I'm usually very confident with guys, but this one… he's different. He pisses me off and then he gives me that smile that makes me just want to grab him and kiss him and then see what he has to say after he's caught his breath.
"How do I look?" I can't believe at how bold I'm being.
"Ugh…"
My heart stops, ugh? All I get is a simple ugh? "What do you mean ugh?"
"Ugh, you look fine."
I can feel my cheeks start to get hot and I wonder if he's getting a kick out of this. "Fine? I'm going for hot here Tony."
"Well in that case." He jumps up from his desk and comes toward me with that look in his eyes; he's going to touch me. He his hands gently brush my legs and then he's pushing the straps down my shoulders. His finger tips brushing my skin every inch of the way. A shiver runs down my back and suddenly I get an image of his lips following his fingertips. He then begins to mess up hair my and I suddenly realize how he's making me look. Does he want me to look like this? Like I've just had the most incredible make out session or more?
"Now that is hot!" I'm too stunned to even move until Gibbs' voice wakes me up.
"You two finished playing dress up?"
"Done!" We say in unison and I hide a grin because the last thing I want is for this man to put clothes on me.
"Ready Tony?" he nods in silence and we head to the elevator and then out to the car. We drive in companiable silence. I can't help remembering the feel of his hands on my skin, even if it was for a brief moment. What exactly is going on between us? All this back and forth banter seems to have something else beneath it, something more. Its scares me to know that there's something simmering underneath the surface because eventually it's going to boil over. He stops the car and I realize that we're there.
"OK here we go." I step out of the car and find my self adding a little swish to my hips. I feel his eyes on me but then I tell myself it's just my imagination. Didn't I once tell him that this was just a brother and sister thing? As I reach the door I turn around and blow him a kiss. Yea right, brother and sister thing my foot.
