As Gibbs led Kate onto the dance floor he placed one hand on her waist and the other he tucked it so it cupped her delicate hand. Kate's hand was firmly placed on his shoulder as they danced; their eyes not leaving the others, not even for a second.
You'll
remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of
barley
You'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we walk in
the fields of gold
It was as if no one else was in the room; their only focus was on the other person in whom they felt so deeply about they couldn't handle the thought that if they let go of each other the person would slowly drift away. As they were slowly turning in circles Gibbs started to moisten his throat.
"Kate I…I guess what I'm trying to say is that I wanted to apologize for the way I acted earlier, I was being a bastard and you didn't deserve that." He gazed in her eyes for any sign that she forgave him, the cheery gleam to her brown irises showed him he was heading on the right track.
So
she took her love
For to gaze awhile
Upon the fields of
barley
In his arms she fell as her hair came down
Among the
fields of gold
Kate listened intently as he led her on the dance floor, gently swaying back and forth to the rhythm of the song, but what really entranced her were his words of apology.
"I really appreciate you coming here and apologizing, but all the blame does not go on you, I over-reacted, I should've handled it all a bit better." She said as she tilted her head down in shame.
Gibbs smiled a little at her confession and kissed her curls softly, causing Kate's head to snap up in surprise.
Will
you stay with me, will you be my love
Among the fields of
barley
We'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we lie in the
fields of gold
"Katie, everything you did was what you were intended to do, and what you were brought up to do. Out of kindness you took care of someone instead of letting them rough it out on their own. That takes guts Kate, and the way you acted was the least you could have been expected to act." He smiled at her and tucked a stray strand of hair that had escaped her messy pony-tail and twirled his index in it curiously.
During the whole while Kate watched him amazed at his behaviour, he was pushing away her excuse by telling her it was the best thing to do at the time, and was playing in her hair like a lover would be expected to do.
See
the west wind move like a lover so
Upon the fields of barley
Feel
her body rise when you kiss her mouth
Among the fields of gold
I
never made promises lightly
And there have been some that I've
broken
But I swear in the days still left
We'll walk in the
fields of gold
We'll walk in the fields of gold
Slowly, ever so slowly he slipped his hand behind her head and gently pulled her face closer to his until his lips met hers. It was like magic, searing love energized through their bodies as time froze. She could feel every part of her body slowly warm up from his kiss. He un-did the elastic and ran his hand through her hair like he always did in his fantasies.
Kate's hands were both now running through his short silver hair slowly massaging his scalp. He moaned in the kiss and sensually licked her lower lip begging for entrance. Slowly she complied and he plunged his tongue in the depths of her mouth.
She tasted fruity and sweet; the exact same way he pictured she would.
Kate was in pure heaven this only happened in her deepest dreams, dreams she had more then once wished would happen. They had stopped dancing and were occupied in discovering each others soft points and the other person's body.
When the urge for air was to dense to ignore they slowly pulled apart, still gazing in each others eyes which were filled with love and want.
Many
years have passed since those summer days
Among the fields of
barley
See the children run as the sun goes down
Among the
fields of gold
You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon
the fields of barley
You can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When
we walked in the fields of gold
When we walked in the fields of
gold
When we walked in the fields of gold
Without saying a word Gibbs led her by the hand towards the entrance to the club and they shared one last sweet kiss before they exited the establishment.
They walked hand in hand down the street neither of them talking but merely enjoying the comfortable silence that went through them.
"Katie…are you sure you want this I mean I'm nearly 15 years your age." He said glumly as they made their way to the unknown. Kate stopped in their tracks and took his hands in hers and looked at him dead in the eyes.
"Jeth- Gibbs you are all that I want, and your age is just a number…in reality you're just as young as your partner, and plus it's not age…it's experience. If I didn't want you Gibbs I wouldn't have been in love with you ever since we met on Air Force One all those years ago. All this time, ever since then, you filled my heart in kindness, your urge to find the truth and the gentleness you show towards the victims." She enveloped him in her arms and stayed there.
Gibbs lifted her chin with his index finger and she stared in his eyes, hers brimmed with tears. He lowered his head and kissed them away one by one, leaving in their place a sweet tingle. The corners of her lips curved upwards and she took a deep breath.
"If this is what you want Katie I am more then willing to try and make this work, I love you Caitlin Ann Todd." He said as he snaked his hand behind her waist and brought her closer.
She smiled ear to ear and whispered back. "I love you too Leroy Jethro Gibbs." They met once more and were again enveloped in an air of bliss and love.
