Taking a deep breath I walked towards them. "Gibbs." I greeted him. "McGee, what the hell?" He asked in his explain-before-I-shoot-you voice. "I work for the FBI and we are currently taking out trigger happy idiots right now. So what's with you guys?" I asked. "We have been trying to get into contact with you, but the FBI has been strict about letting us in. We want you to come back McGee." Ziva tells me. "Tim I don't know why you left but you need to come back where you belong." Gibbs says in a firm.

"I don't know where I belong Gibbs, and the reason I quit was because of the pressure. I couldn't take the jokes, the teasing, so I cracked under pressure." I hissed at him coldly. "A very good friend helped me decided what to do. She had confidence in me when no one else did these past few years."

"She must not have been very good to tear you away from your family, she must have been a bitch to do that to you." Ziva snorted. My blood boiled. You could insult me, and throw me around but talking about Kate like that was crossing the line.

"You listen David." I growled. "She was the best agent I ever saw, she was Abby's best friend and she's my best friend, she died protecting her country and on a rooftop just like this one. You're more of a bitch than she could ever be. Never ever insult her in front of me again." I hissed with fire in my eyes. My right hand wrapped around the gun on my waist.

The NCIS team glared at me and I glared right back. Ziva's hand went to her gun as well. "I hope I'm not interrupting anything." The voice of Fornell told us as he walked to us. "Tim I reported in with the FBI and it turns out they got a call from NCIS, they want you back." I turned to Fornell. "Look Tim if you want to go back, go back. Kevin's learned a lot from you and we could always drag Sacks back to this team, their family after all."

I took a deep breath ad considered it. "Tobias could I have a minute?" I asked. "Sure Tim." I started in the opposite direction of the NCIS team. "Were you going?" DiNozzo demanded. I turned to him. "To get the opinion of someone." I told him.

"Who?" Gibbs demanded. "I think you know that Gibbs, you may have forgotten her but I haven't." Gibbs face twisted and he finally realized it. And it was about time too. I began to take a route I have taken so many times.

"I don't know what to do about it." I whispered as I closed my eyes and stood in the middle of the graveyard even though no one was in sight. But I knew she was listing. "I saw what happened Tim." The sweet voice told me and I felt her warm fingers interlock with mine. I opened my eyes and stared down at her pretty face. She was wearing a black shirt and green cargo pants. Kate smiled and this time I pulled her into a walk. "Kate I don't know what to do." I repeated. "I know Tim."

"What would you do?" I asked. "I honestly don't know. But Tim answer this. Do you miss Abby?"

"Of course I do, but you already know that."

"I know. Do you miss Gibbs, and the way he head slaps you? Be honest."

"I-I." I was stuttering. "I think so, maybe not." I didn't know what to stay. Thankfully Kate was patient like always.

"It's okay, take your time." She soothed me. I inhaled and we continued to walk.

10 minutes later I had my answer.

"Yes. Kate yes I miss all of it." I told her truthfully. She smiled.

"Then Tim go back to NCIS if it feels right, we all fall sometimes, but we have to get back up."

"Your right Kate, but what about you?" I asked. "It wasn't supposed to end this way, you were supposed to find the right man and have kids and be happy. You deserve better!" I yanked us to a stop and she stared I into my eyes.

"Your right Tim, it wasn't supposed to end this way. And I will always miss you, and the team. The best way to die is in the line of duty, and I did. Tim I'm not able to be humane again, to work at NCIS and see Gibbs and Abby again." She told me firmly and her word hurt. "But you can." She whispered. "Tim you can go back to our family."

"It hasn't been a family until we lost you." I whispered back to her.

"Than go back to what's left of our family."

"Okay." I said with confidence. She nodded and looked over my shoulder and stared. I turned around to see Fornell, Ziva, Tony, Gibbs, Ducky, Jimmy and Abby on the top of a small hill staring at us. They weren't fifteen feet from us and Abby had her jaw hanging open. "Go Tim." She whispered. "Bye Kate." I told her as I leaned down and kissed her forehead. "Bye Tim." She told me before she stared into my eyes and suddenly took a few steps back and vanished.

I sighed and started in the direction of my family and co-workers. "What the hell McGee!" Abby barked. "First you quit and leave us for the FBI, you get into a fight with Ziva, I kind pulled tapes of the shoot out and the fight but that's no the point, then your talking with Kate what next?" She hollered. "I've been talking to her for the past six months, she's my best friend, she helped me decided what to do. Even when nobody else had confidence in me she did, she makes me feel better even if she is dead, and it's like a have two little sisters." I told her. She took a deep breath and turned to Gibbs.

"McGee have you decided what your going to do?" He asked me calmly. "Yes, Tobias it's been amazing working with you and tell Kevin that please, but Kate told me to go back to my family if it felt right and it does."

"You're coming back to NCIS?" Abby asked excitingly. "If the director and Gibbs will take me back Abbs." I told her as I stared at Gibbs. He smiled. "Good to have you back Tim." He told me as he patted my shoulder. "Now all of us lets get back to NCIS." He said which made me smile as we all started in the direction of Navy Yard.
