AN:Please review! I had awhole heap of stuff to say, but I can't be bothered, I just wanna go to bed...

WAY OUTTA YOUR LEAGUE

"Dammit, not again!" swore Tony Dinozzo as he slammed the letter onto his desk, looking at it with disgust.

McGee glanced over at him. "What happened?" he asked, still typing furiously on his computer.

Tony sighed. "Ever since my car got stolen, I keep getting speeding and parking bills, that no one understands aren't my fault!" he said angrily.

"Oh." Said McGee, returning to his work. He knew, from past experience, that it was safer to stay away from Tony when he was angry.

"Have you thought about getting a lawyer?" asked Josie, the blonde agent sitting in the desk opposite.

Tony shrugged. "My last lawyer moved away just after we were in court last time, but her secretary won't tell me where to. I have a feeling there's something that she's not telling me…" Tony trailed off as he noticed Josie sniggering into her paperwork. "What?" he said accusingly, glaring straight at her.

Josie shrugged. "You wonder why she won't be your lawyer anymore? You're even slower than I thought Tony."

Tony narrowed his eyes, as Josie smiled back with humour.

Josie Carter had arrived at NCIS just before McGee, and had been a welcome addition to their small team. Gibbs had liked her immediately, and looked upon her as a prodigal daughter, kind of like he did with Tony. Tony too, had liked her, and had asked her out several times, and had been refused several times, and then had finally asked her why she wouldn't go out with a guy like him. Josie had replied, grinning broadly, and watching his reaction carefully, that she 'didn't go out with guys at all.'

After they had passed over that small hiccup, they got along well, like any brother and sister would. However, that didn't mean that he would let her get away with teasing him, as she was doing now.

He continued to glare at her, until McGee broke the silent competition.

"I have a friend who could help you out," he said nervously, waiting until Tony broke his eye contact with Josie and swung around to face him.

"No way," said Tony, eyes wide, feigning misbelief.

McGee nodded, not realising that Tony was sending him up.

"Yeah, a friend of mine's a lawyer, and they owe me a favour, so…" he trailed off, watching as Tony's grin grew.

"No way," he repeated, leaning forwards. "McGee's got a friend!"

"That's one more than you Dinozzo," called Gibbs, as he passed Tony on his way to his desk, cradling a fresh cup of coffee.

Tony winced. "Way harsh, Boss," he said, before turning back to McGee.

"So, does you 'friend' have a name?" he asked, the smile still playing on his lips. "Wait, I bet I can guess. It's a guy, right? And he'll be a loser, like you, so, I dunno…" he was still thinking when McGee spoke up again, slightly annoyed.

"Actually, her name's Kate Todd, and she was not a loser," he said, almost proudly. "I should know, I went out with her."

"That confirms it," Tony whispered to Josie, who giggled girlishly. Tony's heart jumped with hope, until he reminded himself that he didn't have a chance with her.

"How old were you when you went out?" asked Josie, glancing at Tony.

McGee shrugged. "Um, I was fourteen, I think."

"How long did it last?"

McGee stopped. "Um, not very long."

"How long?" asked Tony. "Did you kiss her?"

"Once," replied McGee.

Tony shook his head. "Wasted, wasted."

McGee rolled his eyes, and attempted to go back to his work, sorry that he had ever brought up the subject of Kate. He knew that he still had a crush on her, even though he could hear his sister's voice in the back of his head. 'She's way out of your league, Timmy, way out of your league.' He silently begged Gibbs to come over and tell them to all stop talking and start working, but out of the corner of his eye, he could see Gibbs chatting to someone on the phone, most likely an old service mate.

"Soo," began Tony, cutting into McGee's silent prayer, "How'd you meet?"

McGee sighed. "She was friends with my little sister."

Tony winked. "Knew there'd be a catch somewhere."

"How old was she?" asked Josie.

Tony grinned, and McGee mumbled an answer that Tony couldn't quite pick up.

"Sorry, didn't catch that Probie."

"Ten," mumbled McGee, slightly louder.

Tony and Josie burst out laughing. "You kissed a ten year old when you were fourteen!" shrieked Tony, nearly falling out of his chair.

McGee nodded glumly, and turned back to his work. Fortunately, Gibbs had finally finished his phone conversation, and had decided that the team had work to do.

"Dinozzo! Carter!" he said, watching with a smirk as the smiles slid off their faces, and they both sat upright. "Have you finished your reports?"

"Not yet Boss," replied Tony.

"Then I suggest that you start, before I have to-" Gibbs was cut off mid sentence by the phone ringing, and both Josie and Tony were relieved when he ordered them downstairs to get the truck.

So, if you want tosee what happens when Kate turns up and meets Tony (remember this will eventually be TATE) you gotta review!
