Yeah OK so I decided to keep this one going. My friend told me to. I dunno how long it will be and I don't know what's going to happen so if anyone has any suggestions then fire away. It may take me a while to update because I'm back at school now but I'll do my best. Hope you enjoy and feel free to PM or email me!

Kate lay on her bed trying to fall asleep when her phone suddenly rang, interrupting her thoughts. She rolled over and snapped into the receiver.

"Kate Todd."

"Uh, hi Kate."

"What do you want DiNozzo? It's 1am."

"Couldn't sleep. We have to get that tape from Probie."

"He's not stupid Tony, he'll have copies by now."

Tony chuckled a little uneasily into the phone.

"Anthony DiNozzo can out-think a probie Katie."

Kate was fuming.

"Don't call me that! And McGee is a computer genius. He has us wrapped around his little finger and you know it. This is payback for all the nasty things you've done to him. Dammit DiNozzo, why'd you have to be so nasty!"

"I –"

"You're going to do everything he asks of you, got that?"

"Everything within reason, sure Kati- Kate."

"Everything! He may only be making you his personal slave, but I'm on that tape too." Kate inhaled deeply. "Oh God I'm going to get fired," she groaned and flopped back down onto her pillow.

"I won't let that happen."

There was a short silence. Only Tony DiNozzo could make her so mad and so content at the same time. Damn him!

"OK so what's the plan?" she asked, defeated.

"We've gotta find something big on him."

When Kate didn't respond, Tony sighed and reclined on his own bed.

"Look, Kate, I'm sorry…"

He heard her sigh. "Sorry that you kissed me or sorry you were caught?"

She could hear his grin through his words.

"Sorry that it had so many ramifications."

"OK I guess we'll start looking for dirt on McGee tomorrow then. Goodnight Tony."

"Goodnight Kate. Oh, and Kate?"

"Mmm?"

"For all the ramifications in the world, it was worth it."

Kate put the phone back on its cradle before resting her head back on the pillow. Her stomach flipped and her cheeks burned. Damn him.
