"You feeling better?" Tony asked that evening.
"Yeah, lots, thanks." Kate said picking up her plate and bringing to the sink. "Um, Tony, I think I need to tell you something."
"What's that?" Tony said looking at her smiling.
"You know what, never mind, it can wait." Kate said smiling back at him.
"Are you sure?" Kate just nodded and packed the dishes in the dishwasher.
Later they were sitting on the sofa watching a DVD. After that they got ready for bed, as they had to be up at 5:30 to start getting ready for work. Kate got into bed next to Tony and smiled at him. Tony pulled her closer and kissed the top of her head before they both drifted off to sleep.
The next morning they both entered the bullpen and sat down at their desks. Tim arrived a few minutes later and then Gibbs came down from the director's office.
"It's only going to be us four for the week." Gibbs announced.
"Why?" Kate asked wondering where Ziva and Jacob would be.
"Mossad called them back to Israel. With the war they are needed over their but have agreed that a week would give them some time to get some work done and try and figure out some stuff." Gibbs explained.
"I didn't know Jacob was from Israel." Tony inquired.
"Ziva needed a partner to go with her, don't know why though, and she was quite upset so I didn't ask." Gibbs said starting to walk to the window side of the building.
"Wow, Boss, are you going soft on us?" Tony asked and was answered by a sharp smack on the head.
They continued with paperwork for the day. There was no case that was brought in for a few weeks now and everyone was starting to get bored.
"So Katie, you want to go out to lunch today?" Tony asked.
"Um not really, why don't we just order?" Kate suggested looking up at Tony.
"Ok, are you ok?" Tony asked walking over to her.
"Yeah, just you know, a bit tired." Kate said smiling at him.
"Ok. Hey McGee, want to come get lunch with me?" Tony asked, he kinda needed to talk to McGee anyway.
"Um yeah sure." McGee said a taken back.
"See you later Kate." Tony said smiling at her.
"Ok." Kate said starting to work again.
Tony and McGee drove down the road in silence.
"Tim, how did you ask Abby to marry you?" Tony asked, even surprising himself about saying 'Tim'.
"Um, I asked her right after she told me she was pregnant, I guess it kinda popped out you know? I was going to take her out for a surprise dinner that night and ask, but when she said she was pregnant I couldn't stop myself." McGee chuckled. "Why do you want to know?"
"I might ask Kate to marry me." Tony said a smile tugging at the end of his lips.
"Go Tony! I knew you two were together but I didn't know it was that serious." Tim said and Tony face pulled into a grin.
"I don't know how to ask her though, I mean, I know it has to be special." Tony said pulling into the fast food restaurant.
"You'll think of something, it just might take some time to think of the perfect time and place, but you'll get there." McGee said.
"Thanks." Tony said simply.
Kate and Tony arrived home that evening and had a simple dinner. Kate knew she had to tell Tony about the pregnancy sooner rather then later. It was after dinner and Kate once again cleaned up. She managed to hide having morning sickness that morning but she didn't know if she could keep it up. After cleaning up she walked back to the other room and sat of the sofa. Tony was in the bathroom. For some reasons tears sprung to her eyes and she couldn't stop them. She started to worry about everything, what if Tony doesn't want a baby, what if he leaves her? She couldn't be a single mother, it would be too hard.
"Kate? What's wrong?" Tony was suddenly beside her.
"Nothing, I'm fine." Kate said trying unsuccessfully to hide her tears.
"Your not ok. Come on you can tell me." Tony said scared, thoughts were now running through his mind, did she want to end the relationship? Has someone died?
"I'm so sorry Tony, I'm really sorry." Kate said.
"Sorry about what Kate? Come on, please." Tony begged holding her in his arms trying to comfort her.
"Tony, I'm…I'm…" Kate stuttered. More crazy thought was running through Tony's head, she's not dying is she? Tony thought looking at her as more tears welled up.
"Kate, what's wrong?" Tony asked looking at her.
"I'm pregnant Tony." Kate looked at him expecting to see shock, possible anger and also possible 'I want to get out of here!' look, but she's didn't. Tony's face lit up, he had a huge grin on his face.
"You serious?" Tony asked looking at her. Kate nodded.
"You mean we're going to be parents? We're going to have a little Todd/DiNozzo running around?" Tony asked his face lighting up more and more.
"Does that mean you approve?" Kate asked, smiling at Tony's reaction.
"Do I ever! Kate! This is the best day of my life!" Tony said just a bit to loudly and pulled Kate into a tight embrace.
"Thank you Tony, I didn't know how to would react." Kate said as she hugged Tony back.
Tony pulled away and placed a hand on her cheek. "I love you so much, Kate, you and our new little guy, I couldn't have reacted any other way."
Later that night Tony and Kate lay in bed, Tony's hands on Kate's stomach and Kate's hands on Tony's hands.
What are we going to name him?" Tony asked, I knew it would be a boy.
"One Tony, how do you know it's going to be a boy?" Kate asked grinning at him.
Tony put on a very Gibbs like voice, "My gut." Both of them laughed.
"And second, we have 8 months to think about it, I'm 1 month along." Kate said smiling at him again as his face lit up again.
Tony leaned in a kissed Kate. "Night." He said before they drifted off to sleep.
