Authors' Note: I told you guys I had an idea for another chap. Or a minor installment at the end. Whatever you wanna call it...it's here. Love to know what you thought of it, so drop me a line, or review rather, and let me know what you thought. Or how I can improve on something next time around.
And thanks so much for your support over this. It's much appreciated.

EPILOGUE
She really couldn't express her love enough for this pillow of his. She'd already tried to con him into letting her take it home on numerous occasions. But he wouldn't give it up. Dammit! But as far as she was concerned, she was working on it.
Her favourite thing about it was how she could pluck a feather out of it and tickle Tim as he slept. His nose twitched when she ran it over his face. The first time she did it, she got stitches from laughing so much.
She'd scared the life out of him with her cries of 'I can't breathe, stop it! I can't breathe'. Talk about a rude awakening.
Abby snuggled into the pillow a little more, drawing it to her chest to hug it. She loved the way she sunk into it. She's decided the next bed she buys; it's going to have a feather mattress.
She could feel Tim stir behind her. It was about time she 'woke' him up anyway. It was almost 7am.
"I can't believe you did that too me again. I'm seriously considering hiding that dammed thing next time you come over."
"Oh come on Timmy, you know you love it."
He looked up at her. "You're lucky I don't want to voice my opinion on that one."
"You've been hanging around Tony too much. His influence is rubbing off on you." Abby smirked.
"I resent that."
"Hey, do you think Kate would be up yet?"
"I think any sane person would be sleeping in 'til midday today. That's what I think."
Abby leaned over the edge of the bed and found her cell, flipped it open and pressed speed dial 2. "Let's test her sanity then shall we?" She propped herself back up, pressed the speakerphone button and rested the phone in the center of the bed before plucking another feather.
--
"Oh God!"
"Hmm. What?"
"The phone. Make it stop."
"Don't know where it is."
"Oh for heavens sake," Kate growled and sat up. Bad move. "Woah." Major head spin. "I'm going to murder Abby." She muttered.
By this time, both Agents were sitting up, trying to locate the ringing son-of-a-bitch.
"Ha! You sneaky little bugger!" Tony grinned, holding it up after fishing it out from underneath him. He handed it over.
"What?"
"Good morning sunshine!"
"Abby, not so loud…"
"How'd you sleep?"
She shot a glance over her shoulder. "Quite comfortably, actually."
Kate looked around for a moment and put a hand over the speaker. "Where are we?"
"Virginia State Primary." Tony noted, pointing rather obviously to the sign. "I remember now, you wanted to play on the Jungle Gym."
"I don't think so DiNozzo."
"DiNozzo? Kate, you spent the night with Tony?"
"What was left of it."
She heard a rather chaste chough on the other end of the line. "I'm on speakerphone aren't I?"
"Yeah."
"Morning Tim."
"McGee?" Tony asked moving over towards the phone, clearly stepping into 'Overprotective Mode'. "What's McGee doing with Abby?" He reached over and grabbed the phone. "McGee. What are you doing with Abby?"
"Oh, Tony. If only you knew!"
"Abby!"
"What Timmy?"
"Timmy? McGee! You better not have..."
"Give me that. I'll talk to you guys later." Kate said, snapping the phone shut. "What is your problem?"
"My problem? My problem is I specifically told McGee……"
"I know what you told him Tony, but he's a grown man."
"He's sleeping with Abby."
"And Abby's a grown woman. She'll sleep with whomever she wants. And you'll have to accept it."
"He disobeyed a direct order from his superior, Kate."
"No use pulling ranks Tony. It won't work."
"And you know this because?" He asked rolling his eyes.
"Because...Gibbs told me the exact same thing when I started."
"Your point is…?"
"Point is…" She replied, moving over to his sitting body, "it's not going to stop me from doing this." She moved a hand up to caress the side of his face, and kissed him.
She pulled back slightly, "Or this," and she began to straddle his lap while continuing to kiss him.
"You know, I'm beginning to see, and like your point here, Katie."
"Thought you might."
--
"Maybe, I think……we should go……home. Raining."
"Yeah. We could do with a hot shower." She smirked.
"Oh, I don't think it's a hot shower I need."
"You really know how to say the most appropriate things at the most inappropriate times, Tony."
"I'm not the one who just suggested we break 'Rule 12', Kate."
"Well hey, if you don't want to…"
"What! Hey, I never said that. Unless you're having second thoughts."
"No, I want to."
"Good, cos I want to too."
"Good."
"Good." He replied leaning in to one more kiss in the rain, before they set off home.
