YAY! I finally got a couple of new chapters written! Sorry it took so long to get these chapters out I had a serious case of writers block, hopefully its over now and I will write more and hopefully finish this story within the next few weeks. (sorry if this doesn't make sense) THANKS FOR READING!
Tony rarely smiled and however much dean denied it on the outside Dean loved it when Tony smiled; it showed that he was truly happy. But there were other ways dean had gotten to know if Tony had been content. His different faces, the different ways he held his head. If Tony had his head down and cocked to the side then he was being cautious, listening, Tony somehow had a sixth sense for that sort of stuff. In the middle of a hunt if Tony did this move then we all knew to brace ourselves something was coming. If Tony had his head up and his shoulders pushed back, with a particular smile pasted on hi face then he was feeling insecure about himself about something. And if Tony was completely relaxed, meaning slack shoulders head held somewhat down and his hands in his pockets then he was either content or happy. Tony was not your average kid in the way he showed his emotions, either way, relaxed Tony is what dean and Sam both worked hard to maintain.
The Tony that Sam and Dean had met up with at that motel was completely insecure if they remembered correctly. This Tony was putting up a show; Dean could already see that Tony was insecure, frustrated, hurt, and angry. A deadly combination that if left alone could prove to be self-destructive. This had never happened before because neither Dean nor Sam was going to let it happen. They needed to get Tony out of the place he was in and show the people at NCIS the real Tony.
Right then and there Dean decided that as soon as Tony was talking and working through his problems about this past incident that dean would invite special agent Gibbs over to help Tony get better. He could tell that over the past few years Tony and Gibbs had become close, dean could see that it was almost at the point of a father/son relationship. Dean wasn't quite sure how he felt about that.
Tony woke up to the feeling of his brother running his fingers through his hair. He kept his eyes closed because of two reasons. 1) he didn't want to have to face his brother at the moment, 2) he was still sleepy and wanted desperately to fall back to sleep.
After sleeping on top of his brothers like old times Tony had awoken feeling, well, feeling confused. He knew he was safe, Mr. Tibbs was never going to get to him again. Tony smiled internally he knew that his name was Tony not Gabe. He knew that he was allowed to talk. Everything that that guy had ever tried to tell him was dismissed from his head.
Tony knew that deep down that he knew that everything he was doing for Mr. Tibbs was for his personal survival, however that was not going to squelch the feeling that kept coursing through his body. He didn't understand. Why was he angry, who was he angry at, Mr. Tibbs for putting him through his own personal hell, for making him forget everything about who he was what he stood for and what he had-even if it had been for a short period of time.
Or was he pissed at himself for not trying to escape when after he submitted to Mr. Tibbs, he was granted more freedoms, which he could have escaped at anytime.
He was also unexplainably scared, and…lonely.
However he knew that with the help of his brothers he was going to get better. Back to feeling loved. Back to feeling like his old self. Back to not hiding how he was really feeling. Tony fell back to sleep with this thought running through his head.
*Flashback*
"Stop please Gabe promises to behave please!" he pleaded with the man with the snakes, from inside of the deep glass box that he was in naked and strapped down so he is unable to move.
"Gabe Gabe Gabe this is for your own good. You will behave. You will obey. But for now I think you should have some fun with these snakes. You see Gabe; I've been watching you. I know you dislike snakes. I want that to change. By the time I'm done with you, you will love snakes and everything they stand for.
Here's an interesting tidbit, in ancient Grease the sick or injured would pray to the god Asklepios and they would wait for this god to visit them, or seek out his supposed servants…snakes. They believed that the snake's tongue on a body would take away any toxins that were killing the person. Isn't that just amazing?
Why am I doing this you ask? Well you have been away form me for a very long time so you have been plagued with other peoples principles. Gabe. I. Won't. Stand. For. It. These snakes are serving multiple purposes. One being that they will teach you a lesson. Two, hopefully the beliefs of the ancient Greeks will hopefully be true and this filth that has been poured into your mind for years and years will be gone. And three? I love to see you afraid. It just makes me all warm and fuzzy inside." And with that Mr. Tibbs placed the hundreds of snakes on top of Tony's naked body.
