Hey everyone this is me hope you like this next chapter its reveals a little more about what's bugging Tony.

Sitting in the class marking some work the kids did earlier. Kate thinks about the mood Tony was in.

He wasn't his usual self, passing comments or teasing me. Its weird I miss my Tony. Wait my Tony what am I on about. He's not mine. Get these thoughts out of your head.

"Mrs Anderson" Kate heard a small voice call. She looked around to see little Lily looking at her with her big blue eyes.

"Yes Lily" she said to the small girl.

"Mrs Anderson there's man at the door for you he looks mad.

"Thank you Lily" she said looking over to the door there was George standing in the doorway.

She made her way over there. "Hi George. What can I do for you?"

"Mrs Anderson I need to speak to you outside" he said in a sharp tone

"Ok give me a minute." She called the class to attention. "Class I'm just going outside to talk to George for a second. Keep working and I'll be back in a minute".

"Kathy you're needed in the Admiral's office after work today" he said in a voice with short integrity.

"Um do you know what for" Kate said she was a bit scared.

"No" he said flatly.

"Ok see you I have to get back to class now" she replied.

I have to tell Tony so if something goes wrong he knows where I am.

Back in the class

"Hey guys and gals did you miss me" she said to her class as cheerfully as she could. "Um I have to see someone ok, you kids are doing great, your a good bunch of children. Be back in a minute." she told them.

Kate walked to the administrator's desk and asked to see her husband. The blonde lady said that her name was Lucy, and that she'll get Tommy for her. Finally Kate knew that lady's name.

Kate thought that she would find out some info from Lucy while she was waiting.

"So Lucy can I ask you something?"

"Um ok what do you want to know?"

Lucy was really lovely

"Ok what you think of the admiral?"

"He's he's um" she sounded a bit scared.

"It's ok. Take your time you don't have to answer" Kate reassured Lucy.

"No its' fine he's a chauvinistic pig that beats his wife and likes to control people, see this" she said as she lifted up her top to reveals a huge black and purple bruise with and tinge of green.

"Oh my god did he? Kate was in shock.

"Yes" Lucy said as tears started to stream down her cheeks.

Kate took her hand and hugged her. "Its all going to be alright I promise."

Then instead of Tony walking towards them. It was the Admiral.

"Well Mrs Anderson nice to finally meet you" he said in a big booming voice, "Since you can get out of class now we'll talk now and I'll send Lucy here to look after your class". Lucy was wiping her eyes as she left to go to the class.

"Follow me Kathy. Can I call you Kathy?" he asked. She opened her mouth to answer and he butted in with "Of course I can".

They walked to his office and he sat behind his desk. "Take a seat Kathy" he paused. She took a seat and looked up at him he was an extremely huge man looked about 6 foot 3 and 160 Kgs. He could over power her easily. "Ok now I suppose you want to know why I brought you here. Well that's because you're a beautiful woman and I like beautiful women it's just a pity that your married" he told her with a big grin on his face.

She was speechless she didn't know what to say. "Um what?" she said.

He came round to her side of the desk and put his face right up to hers. She could small alcohol on his breath. "You are really sexy you know. I think I might have a bit of dessert right now" he said.

Then he picked her up by her arms and slammed her against the wall and planted a big wet kiss forcefully on to her lips. She struggled a bit but it didn't do much. With an attempt to distract him she kneed him in the balls and as he let go for a few seconds she run for the door. He followed her until he saw another person and let her get away from him.

She ran to the class and walked into see Lucy reading them a story. She walked over beside Lucy and asked to see her in the corner. So they told the class that they were just going to talk over in the corner and that they were sorry today was so hectic. Over in the corner Kate told her that she couldn't go back to her desk yet.

"Why" she asked her curiously.

"Because he's drunk and he attacked me." Kate said to her strictly.

"Oh my, I see, are you alright?" Lucy asked.

"No not really sorry I really need to see Tony I mean Tommy my husband" Kate had made a slip up but Lucy didn't really seem to notice, "But we need to finish off school day for these children their life's have been so hectic lately with their teacher dieing and all they really don't need their new teacher walking out on them" she said. "Oh and one more thing if you ever need anything don't be afraid to call round my house. I'm sure Tommy won't mind".

"Oh okay" she said with a surprised look.

They finished off the day and at 3 pm Kate went back to the house wanting to see Tony, but he finished at 5 pm so she had a shower to help her relax and found two big bruises on her arms.

Bastard! fk I'm going to get this one.

She got dressed and went into the kitchen to make herself a cup of coffee but the door bell rang and to her surprise it was Lucy.

"You said I could come round any time but if you don't want me here I can go" Lucy said with a sad look on her face.

"No, no come sit down what's up? Do you want a cup of coffee I was just making one?" Kate asked her.

"Oh yes please".

A few minutes later Kate came in to the lounge with two cups of coffee. She sat down beside Lucy and handed her one.

"So what happened?" Kate asked

"Well…"

They talked until Tony came home about anything and everything.

Kate heard the door open and she went to see who it was. "Hi Tommy how was your day?" she said giving Tony a kiss on the lips as well as giving him the heads up that they had a guest and that he had to call her Kathy.

Then he saw Lucy sitting on the couch. "Not to bad honey" he replied.

"Oh Tommy sweetheart, this is Lucy the administrator for the base, you remember her don't you" Kate introduced Lucy to Tony.

But Tony had a certain dull tone to his voice. "Hi", Tony put his hand out to greet Lucy but she just looked at it almost scared of it.

Kate went over a sat beside Lucy and whispered in her ear, "He doesn't bite you know".

Lucy looked at Kate then shook Tony's hand and said "hi nice to meet you" she got up, "Oh I must be going, thanks for everything see you tomorrow".

"You don't have to go you know" Kate told her.

"Oh that's alright I have to anyway"

"Ok then see you" Kate answered.

"Bye" Tony said as Lucy made her way out the door.

he asked. So what do you want to do for dinner go out or eat in?

"I don't know, I can cook if you want?" she said.

"No its fine I'll make some pasta okay" he said.

"Ok then that sounds great" she answered. Kate was quite surprised that Tony could cook and that Lucy had told her all that stuff and that she and Lucy were becoming good friend. Tony got up and went into the kitchen. Kate heard the sound of pots and pans and things in the kitchen. She was bored in the lounge so she went into the kitchen to see if Tony wanted any help.

"No thanks I'm fine." he said.

"Okay, oh how was the rest of your day really?" she asked him with caution.

"Not that great he sent me on this to two and a half hour errand and then yelled at me for being too long even though I had to go out of town to get this thing. "Ohh fk" he swore. He had burnt himself on the hot element. He ran it under the cold tap for a few minutes then went back to cooking.

"Oh sorry, don't worry and since it's Friday and we both get the weekend off we can put all the information together tomorrow and rest on Sunday. She told him as she was looking through the case file.

"Okay that's good I really don't like that man, we only need to find the evidence to pin the murder on him and we can go home, you can go sit down if you want I'm fine in here," he said.

"Ok Tony thanks. The kids really wore me out." she yawned and went to sit down.

20 minutes later Tony had finished making dinner.

"Kate dinner"

"Coming" she said. She sat down at the table and started to eat. Tony did the same. "Wow Tony this is great, I never knew you could cook." she said to him.

"Well what did you think that I ate take out every night" he bit. "Oh sorry" she murmured. "No I sorry I'm just a bit jumpy sorry".

They finish their dinner put the dishes in the dishwasher. While Tony had a shower Kate got into her pjs and sat down to watch some TV.

10 minutes later.

Tony came out of the bathroom and saw Kate asleep on the couch. It was 7:00 and Kate had to report to Gibbs, Tony didn't really want to wake her up but he had to. He walked over and kneeled down beside the couch. "Kate. Come on, you have to Wake up Kate." He put his hand on her arm and she winced as she woke up. "Oh sorry what happened are you alright"

"What" she said. "Oh nothing I you just gave me a fright", she lied.

"Sorry Kate but you have to report to Gibbs." He told her.

So she sleepily go up and walked over to the laptop turned it on and had a quick briefing with Gibbs. "Ok that's fine you look tired Kate you should go to bed okay" Gibbs said to her, "Hi Tony hope everything's going well," He addressed Tony, "Okay bye talk to you tomorrow". "You heard the man Kate bed time" Tony told her.

"Okay" she yawned at him.

"Actually I'm going to come as well" so they both got into bed. "Night Kate" said Tony.

"Sweet dreams Tony", said Kate.

Kate woke up again to Tony yelling at the top of him lungs. "Daddy no I'll be good, don't no no, I'm sorry daddy your drunk, stop, stop."

She rolled over to wake him up. She put her hand on his cheek and been discovered he was sweating. "Tony! Tony! Wake up it's only a nightmare." She said as she moved her hand to his shoulder and gently shook him.

He woke up. Tears were threatening to fall but he held them back. "Tony what's going on what did your dad do? Why are you having these nightmares?" Kate demanded. One look at his face and she did the only thing she could think of that might get him to calm down and possibly open up.

She put her arms around him and held on tightly. That's when unable to hold them back any longer Tony let the tears flow as he held on to her for what felt like dear life, like he if let go he would fall away. "Shhh shhh its okay everything's going to be fine." She cooed.

Tony cried for awhile but he didn't know why he felt so comfortable letting it out to Kate. A tear slipped down Kate's cheek for Tony, he was in a lot of emotional pain and she hated seeing him like this.

After awhile he stopped. Kate look into Tony's eyes and said, "We'll talk in the morning, go back to sleep."

He laid his head on her chest and she one hand in his hair and as they fell asleep he looked up at her and said, "Night Kate and thank you".

Well what you think I'll write more soon. ooohh what is going on.
