A/N: Sorry it took a while to update..was very busy past week. I hope you like this chapter as much as I do...don't forget to review, cos I appreciate it!
When they both came in, Abby had completed her task.
"Hey guys" Abby's voice came out of the computer, "ok, this is the exciting part...Tony, your name is Benjamin Sumner and Kate, you are Lisa Heart. You are married for 5 years now, no kids and you live in a large villa in Hollywood. You came to Florida for the charity event and to take a relaxing holiday."
"What is the less exciting part Abby?" Tony grinned.
"That you'll be spending your whole evening with rich snobs drinking Champagne and eating caviar while talking about their little boring lives." They laughed.
Kate and Tony moved their bags to a hotel room a floor above, belonging to the richer class of society. Kate was talking about the charity event when another couple in the corridor stopped them.
"Excuse me...you are also going to the charity event?"
"Yes" said Tony shaking the hand of the woman, "the name's Benjamin Sumner, of a large line of Sumner hotels in Hollywood...you must have heard about it."
Kate looked at Tony with disbelief and rolling eyes.
"Uh, yes, yes" the husband said, "of course...I am Daniel and this is my wife Veronica."
"Nice to meet you...K...Lisa Heart" Kate said, almost forgetting about the fake names.
"Guess we'll see you two tonight then," Veronica smiled.
They disappeared, but Tony and Kate could hear Veronica whisper silently to her husband:
"What a lovely couple."
Tony and Kate exchanged a look.
When Kate came out of the bathroom, wearing her long black dress with deep V-neck, Tony swallowed for a second. She could feel his eyes moving down her body and she was secretly enjoying it, though she knew that this kind of bonding was not exactly a good idea.
"Wow"
"Right back at you," she responded, seeing him waiting on the double bed wearing his tuxedo. They took the elevator to the parking garage and drove 10 minutes to arrive at a brightly lightened dining hall. They gave their invitations at the door, that Abby gave them earlier on. They looked around if they could pick up some names that they recognised from the list that McGee printed earlier. Everybody seemed to be dancing, so Tony grabbed Kate closer by the waist and lead her to the dance floor.
"Tony, what are you doing?" Kate stammered surprised.
"What does it look like I'm doing? I'm going to show you...my moves" he said while he twirled her around with raised eyebrows. She was swept away by his sudden reaction and could not say something back. The music changed from disco to a soft tune, the beginning of a slow. Kate's eyes got wider while she stood there helplessly, before being pulled closer by Tony.
"Aw, c'mon now honey, you know you want to". A big grin appeared on his face. A grin she knew too well.
"Don't get any ideas, DiNozzo", she whispered in his ear, "we all know how McGee ended up in the gym..."
"I'd rather get you in the position McGee brought you in before you kneed him, only difference would be that you wouldn't want to knee me." He whispered back with a seductive smile this time. Kate decided to play along his game.
"Oh yeah, and why is that DiNozzo?"
"Because I'm the sex machine and you don't mess with his equipment before you tested it!" Kate couldn't help it but to burst out in laughter.
"Is that right Tony? Well, you're on" she joked back. Tony wanted to ask her if she meant it, when suddenly Darlene Stevens appeared from around the corner.
"Oh my god Tony, it's Darlene Stevens. She is talking to a dark handsome man. Shouldn't she be grieving alone at home? She is kissing him on the cheek. Oh my god, they are coming in our direction. This will blow our cover. We've got to get out of here." Kate whispered agitated. She looked around, took Tony's arm and dragged him away. She saw a small door further on at the right and opened it: the storeroom.
"In here" she pointed to Tony. She pushed him in and closed the door behind her. It only struck her then that the room was actually small, much too small for all the material and two people. Her body was pressed against Tony's...again.
"So Katie..are you going to wear that sexy black underwear you bought for me tonight?"
"That's none of your...wait a minute, I never told you I bought black lingerie...you went through my bags again DiNozzo! I told you NOT to go through my stuff ever again!" she tried to whisper but didn't succeed. Tony moved a little closer. Confusing noises were heard from outside the room.
"No...move over..." Kate ordered Tony.
"I didn't tell you to get in here!" he answered. An elderly man opened the door and suddenly it became silent in the hall. Kate closed her eyes. This is not happening. She turned her head away ashamed. Tony grinned and said: "Oh honey I told you before that we cannot act like teenagers anymore." He jumped out of the little storeroom and helped her get up. People were shaking their head in disbelief and already excluding them from their high society club even before being introduced. They left the party in a hurry.
