Lalala I couldn't be bothered entering a witty before-the-story-thingamy. So, as always, thanks for the reviews, hope you like and review this one (nudge nudge), and hmm… stay away from ants. They're ebil.
Previously: Kate found Cupid, Tony twitches, McGee and Abby are "dancing", Kate and Tony muck around and Kate freaks out slightly.
Tony watched Kate weave her way through the mass of people dancing and find a seat at the bar.
"What the hell just happened?" Tony wondered out loud, causing three people to look at him strangely. He ignored them and made his way to Kate, wanting to get some answers.
"Kate?" Tony put a hand on her shoulder and she jumped and whipped around. He looked at her face closely and noticed that she wasn't scared. It was more of bewilderment and she was chewing her bottom lip. Tony placed a finger gently on her lip, causing the biting to stop. Kate looked up at him, still puzzled.
"Want to let me in on what's happening?" Tony probed kindly. "Look it doesn't need to go into detail or whatever, I just need to know what's going through your head at the moment." Kate hesitated and fiddled with the necklace she was wearing.
Tony grinned at her, "Want me to buy you a drink first?"
Kate looked at him suspiciously. "You trying to seduce me or something DiNozzo?"
He held up his hands, "Course not Katie. I'm just tryin to loosen you up a bit. You seem awful tense." When Kate nodded slightly Tony held up two fingers to get a couple of drinks. He watched her take a sip then lean back.
"Mkay…" Kate wanted to keep this as simple as possible; she didn't want to get worked up like when she had told Abby. "I used to come here a lot. With my boyfriend, Matt. We'd been together around 5 years, "she glanced at Tony, noticing him in a different light, a quiet Tony, a concerned Tony. She continued, "Anyway one night I'm late arriving here and look around for him… I found him" she trailed off at this point and Tony took her hands, encouraging her. "Anyway I found he was gay, he was tonguing 2 guys in the corner over there," Kate sighed at motioned towards the corner. She felt Tony's hands grip her more strongly and glanced up at him. Now he was the one with the confused expression. "Almost like the time you were tonguing a guy, hey DiNozzo," she joked.
"Hey, I didn't know she was a he," Tony answered painfully. "Anyway, not about me… so I get some of it now, Bambosa brings bad memories and whatnot… but what about what happened over there (he waved his hand towards their now quickly occupied couch) I mean we were having fun and then you get all jumpy and run off?" Kate shrugged and looked at the ground.
"That's what me and Matt used to do, we'd muck around like that… almost like what we do… anyway it just brought back more memories for me, and all I'm trying to do is forget this stuff," Kateended coldy.
"Look Katie, you need to get over this, Matt sounded like a dick, he didn't know what he had in front of him, a gorgeous, smart, wonderful, slightly temperamental girl" Tony quickly continued, "He screwed you over Katie." Kate blushed at his description.
Then he surprised her by enveloping her in a big hug. To Kate, they fitted perfectly; his hands running up and down against her bare back, her head snugly against his chest so that she could hear his heart. The music faded out and everyone blurred out of vision as she closed her eyes contently.
Tony couldn't believe it. He was hugging the unattainable Caitlin Todd. She had confided to him and was now hugging him back. His heart skipped at couple of beats as he felt her lean into him. He eyes wondered over to the dance floor and found Abby and McGee smiling stupidly at him. He ignored them and closed his eyes, not even bothering to let his hands wander further down her back.
This was different.
